Roster Menus are extremely slow to navigate

Seems pretty obvious there's a problem with roster navigation. Scrolling through players results in a slight lag between loading player pictures and quick-look stats at the top of the screen. I've noticed this issue for the third year in a row on Xbox, others online have complained about this issue on Playstation as well. I've cleared memory cache and checked my internet and those don't seem to be the problem, have to assume it's a technical issue with the game.

Happens in all roster screens no matter what mode, most notably in the edit roster screen from the main menu and in Franchise Mode. Makes changing lines and looking through players a slog.

Again, I've done all the checks to ensure that this is not an issue with my console or my internet (I've had 2 different services in the last 3 years) and other EA Sports games do not have this issue including CFB 25/26 which hosts many more players.

    Hey there. Thanks for the report. We're aware of the lag and are investigating it.

  • Menu's are extremely slow at launch. Was hoping this would have gotten fixed since the last two titles had this issue. With the lack of additions made to Franchise Mode this year it feels like the least that could have been done was an improvement to the menu speeds. It really makes the game hard to play.

    Really hoping this gets resolved in the next few weeks.

  • the lag is so bad that in the draft selection screen you can scroll down and the row will be highlighted and you can go to view more information on the player and it will show you more information on a completely different prospect.
    same issue when looking at contracts scrolling down and then clicking to view more it will be out of sync.
