EA Sports FC 26: Customised Team Sheets, Line-Ups and Custom Tactics not Saving

I customised the Team Sheets, Line-Ups and Tactics for Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City (I created new Custom Tactics, changed formations and changed who was on the Starting XI and Substitutes Bench for all three clubs) on FC 26 (PS5) today and when I closed the game and logged back in later, the changes had been reverted back to the default line-ups and my changes to the Starting XIs and Substitutes Benches were gone and my new Custom Tactics had disappeared. I remembered to save a Squads file before closing the game properly. I had no power outages, I didn't turn off my PS5 before re-opening FC 26 and the changes that I made were gone.

I had this very same problem in FC 25, too. It's starting to bug me that EA can't fix such an issue even with the release of a new game. It's a lot of money each year for a game with the same bugs as its previous iteration.

If anyone has any solutions or also shares the same bug on PS5, help and replies would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Joe

    Same issue but on pc. Now I can't even change the positions of any player on my team. If I do try to, it just reverts back to its original position. It's crazy that it's been a year and they still can't seem to fix this. Honestly, shame on you guys.

    Also, while being in game and opening the team management menu, the game just freezes and crashes.

    You still can't save tactics, edit default team sheets/formations in the main menu.

    There were over 1000 replies regarding this bug in FC25. You also show this issue on your trello board (see image). How is it possible to not have it fixed for this game?

    This is your quote from the FC25 thread: "We're aware of an issue where team sheets and formations aren't saving correctly. Despite making changes, the default settings revert upon reloading the game, preventing player swaps and formation adjustments. Our team is actively working on a solution, and we appreciate your patience and understanding."

    You were definitely aware of this bug! What is your response, EA_Vendcera​?

    Hello I’m reporting this bug and expressing my frustrations, This issue has been ongoing for Fc 24,   Fc 25, And now Fc 26, In The Main menu when you go to settings and edit Team sheets it does not save my custom tactics nor will it save in kick off.  Me and a group of friends have been playing Since the very 1st game came out and we have created a fantasy league selecting our favourite clubs and drafting people based off certain criteria and play out seasons at each others houses, this has been going on for decades. Please fix this issue, it’s causing a lot of stress and taking a lot of time for us to redo teams for 10 people. We all have kids and this is our way of having fun. Please EA WE NEED YOUR HELP!  ITS BEEN 3 YEARS OF THIS SAME ISSUE EA.

    Very Frustrating EA SPORTS has known about this issue since Fc 24, Fc 25, And now it’s the same **bleep** on FC 26! Absolutely ridiculous! They promote that they have “Listened to the Community” but it’s just a lie to trick us into buying the game again. If this issue isn’t Fixed by the 1st title update I’m going to switch. It’s sad to say but EA obviously doesn’t care about this. 3 YEARS SAME ISSUE IS CRAZY!
