Go to create a player and the game crashes. Create a Team is fine, error only occurs when I go to create a player.
Ideas
The crash is probably caused by you creating a player and having that on a created team. So if you're going to create players and have them on your teams, try to create all the players first. Or you can wait for EA to probably fix the bug.
Is that what happened to you aswell? I might try to restart everything allover again but I don't know if there are any other things you need to avoid to make sure it doesn't crash.
