Yes this is still happening.
It has been two weeks and no response.
There are alot of people not beeing able to save the settings at all.
In my case (and several others) it is not possible to play the career mode at all which is 90% of the game.
When trying to launch career mode it is possible to select one of three career modes but then when trying to start nothing happens.
If one goes back to the main menu and then select career again, I will be promted with the settings for the selected career mode.
The three options in this screen is
B = Back (Goes back to main menu)
A = Apply (Game freezes, no crash, but freezes, I can still hear the in game sound, but nothing happens and now it is not possible to do anything else than ALT+F4)
U = Load default settings (Game freezes, no crash, but freezes, I can still hear the in game sound, but nothing happens and now it is not possible to do anything else than ALT+F4)
So two weeks and two "Big" patches, and still not possible to play the game as intended.
I would like to underline that all other game modes are working, and I have never experienced a crash or disconnect from EA servers.
I have a computer that meets all the recommended requirements.
I am on PC and pay for EA PLAY PRO subscription.
I have tried everything to get around this problem and it is just not possible.
