I’m experiencing a recurring bug in Career Mode involving player morale, attitude, and transfer requests.
Players keep requesting transfers even when I am giving them around 90% of available playing time, including starting them regularly and playing them for full matches. I have also increased their wages and improved their contracts, but their morale/attitude still becomes negative and they continue asking to leave the club.
There also appears to be a problem with the player performance and attitude system. Players can perform well, receive regular minutes, and be treated as important members of the squad, but the game still acts as if they are unhappy about their playing time or performance.
For example:
Player starts and plays around 90% of matches.
Player regularly plays 90 minutes.
Player's wage has been increased.
Player performs well during matches.
Despite this, the player becomes unhappy and requests a transfer.
The player's attitude/morale sometimes does not correctly reflect their actual playing time or performances.
Once the transfer request happens, it can be difficult or impossible to restore the player's happiness even after meeting their demands.
It seems like Career Mode is either not correctly tracking playing time, contract satisfaction, performance, or player morale, or these systems are not communicating correctly with each other.
Please investigate the logic behind player morale, squad role expectations, performance evaluation, and transfer requests in Career Mode. Players who are consistently playing and performing well should not repeatedly request transfers because of supposed lack of game time.
This issue negatively affects long-term Career Mode saves because important players can randomly become unhappy and request transfers even when the manager has fulfilled their expectations.
Yes they did. I've always pre ordered but the bugs in the Beta were so bad I stopped playing after the first day. This will be the first year I'm holding off. I only play manager career so the way it was left until the bugs are fixed there was no point in buying it. EA are an awful company to deal with - they're just not interested in their customers at all.
