    @KnocksYOUoutCold It looks like clearing the game saved data can help fix this. Visit My Games & Apps, press start on the controller when highlight UFC>Manage Game>Clear Game Saved Data.

  • Hi team,

    Same happening here on xbox one.. This is è super annoying please fix this bug soon

    I have tried the following but still facing career frozen when I go to next week:

    - uninstall and reinstall the whole game with all additional contents

    - clear local save game and reserved space

    - play with or without new fighter patch

    - do some minor actions (eg customize fighter or imorove fightight skills) to trigger a save game and then quit career by going back to home screen

    Still same behaviour: when I go to next week or simulate to next week the game crashes completely and the only way to go on is to restart the game.

    I had noticed the following strange behaviours in the game before It happened the first time:

    - the game was very slow in saving progress in the week training (eg after a sparring it would take more time than usual to let me select my next action)

    - often had to click A on go to next week a couple of times in the previous fights 

    - I had issue with customize character, such as I had to click on right joystick many times before accessing the customize character menu on the right

    - I ended up clicking A to customize the character but actually this made me move  to the next week. Just like there was some mess in the customize menu

    - faced some issues with the game licence (eg cannot find user licence error) 

    When I quit the career and went back the first time, I noticed I had a number of credits that was not coherent with my previous sparring. 

    This all seems like a very bad bug and I'm surprised no Q&A was able to spot this

    After this, I was never able to make career progress again. After achieving champion title I see no  reason why I should start over again

    Thanks

    Ps: also noticed EA logo stands still like it is unable to save game or connect  to the web

  • Also experiencing the same issue,was playing the game normally and started occurring everytime the clock/sim to next fight screen appears, and it just locks up the screen, no corrupted data, no closing in a save screen, anything like that, just started appearing

    @EA_Blueberry I tried this but it still goes back to being frozen on 'sim to next fight offer' screen. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the whole game, still no luck.
  • Nice so 3 years later the same bug is an issue and not fixed good job ea sports your the best thought i would try this game out just to be disappointed the gameplay is horrible the fluidness of fighting is nothing like it was on ufc 2 theyve done nothing but go backwards in this game series they havent made it better in any way

    It can't be that rare, this just happened to me and here it is 2023. They have had years to fix this issue but here I am with the exact same issue... 2 div Champ, first title defense at welterweight and... frozen. Career over... I guess I start all over??? 

    I really wish I had read all these reviews before spending my money.

  • 11-2023, close to 2024, still not fixed? Anyone found any solutions? I just encountered this for the first time and can't play anymore. First time UFC player, liked the game, was thinking of buying the 5th, but not so sure anymore if that's how EA takes things. Happened to me in a similiar manner, ufc belt defended, move up a weight class and when trying to simulate week it just get stuck on the screens transition. So disappointed, I was getting so invested in the game...

  • Wronggggggggg that does not fix it. I have tried it multiple times. I'm now gonna have to restart my entire career that I was towards the end of. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
