Time of Day setting is broken in Ultimate Team after the latest Title Update

Hi everyone,

I am reporting a consistent visual/setting bug that started happening immediately after the latest Title Update in Ultimate Team. The "Time of Day" settings are completely broken and reset themselves.

No matter what I select in the settings, the match always forces Daytime on the stadium, even when it should be Night.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to the Ultimate Team match settings / conditions menu.
  2. Set "Weather" to Custom and try to change the time parameters.
  3. Even with "Dynamic Time of Day" set to 21:30 and "Time of Day" manually switched, the UI or the match engine overrides it (as shown in the attached file).
  4. Once you enter the match, it is bright daylight outside, completely ignoring the night-time / artificial lighting preferences.

This ruins the gameplay consistency and shadow tracking on certain stadiums. EA, please look into this—every new patch seems to break basic match conditions that were working perfectly fine before.

Is anyone else experiencing this on PS5 or other platforms?

    The game is literally changing the time of day on the fly. Night time on the halftime screen, sunny day on the pitch. EA, what did you do to the match conditions in UT? Our custom settings mean absolutely nothing now.
