Franchise mode free agency list bug

Product: NHL 22
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In Franchise Mode go to free agency or any open list of players and select any player that is not the first one on top of the list with R3. Then when you press R2 instead going to the player one below the one chosen it brings you back to the top.
What happens when the bug occurs? You basically can't move freely between players when having there stats open because everytime you just want to scroll to the next player you get put back at the top
What do you expect to see? Going to the player after the one i pressed R3 on instead of the second player on top of the list every time.
Was the issue in online or offline mode? Offline
Insert Game Mode or Feature here Franchise Mode
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 11:00 AM
What is your time zone? PRT - GMT - 4:00
What is your gamertag/PSN ID?

As far as i know its been an issue since nhl 21 but seems to be working better on ps5 and newer consoles but the bug is still there on ps4. I purchased the game yesterday expecting at least minor bugs like that from the previous game to be addressed.

Thank you

  • So I don't know if it was like this before but now it works the first time you choose a player but then reset to the same bug every time after tbat if you don't back out completely to the franchise main menu

    Don't know if this was a fix but this is after the latest update oct 22

  • not only is this still happening, it has been happening since for the last few titles after it started in an NHL 20 patch

    I've posted this multiple times. It happens when viewing draft class too. It will pull up the "franchise overview" overlay UI. 

  • Just opened the nhl 23 trial of ea play on ps5 and the issue is mind blowingly still there. I don't think a fix for a small glitch like this is too much for a 3 year old bug at this point.
