Black saving screen continuously after a race.
I'm on Series X. This happened with F1 24 as well but no other EA game I own does this. The fact it started happening on F1 24 prompted me to buy the newest game this weekend in the hopes it didn't happen again so to say I'm angry is an understatement. After a race it will go to the black saving screen but it lasts forever. After a few minutes I get a "highlight's reel failed to save" and then the game will sit on the black saving screen for as long as I let it. One time I left it an hour and went to do something else with F1 24. If I switch the game/console off and on again it will ask me to select a local or cloud save and it sends me to the start of the race I have already completed. These races are long so it's put me off the game because it's tedious. To find the exact same issue on 25 is infuriating when I paid for it this weekend. I don't know what to do. If I can't fix it I'll have to ask for a refund and I really enjoy these games so would like to avoid that. I have already tried reinstalling the game but that doesn't fix the issue. I don't know whether it's a cloud issue or my profile or whether it's a known bug that needs patching. Is there a way to manually save and avoid the auto save after a race? Or save immediately after crossing the line so I can avoid redoing races? Any suggestions/help is appreciated. This has been 6 months across 2 games and I'm at a loss.
Game Freezing and failing to save after 100 percent race distance/Long Play
I am playing F1 25 on the Xbox series S and after completing a 100 percent driver career race the game stutters from the podium screen, race highlights and fails to save the game. It either comes up with a fail to save message or gets stuck on the communicating with servers screen. This is very frustrating as I have just completed a full grand Prix this afternoon to experience the problem and had no option but to quit the game. When I restarted I discovered that I was taken back to the very start of the race so will have to complete the whole race again. I experienced this when completing back to practice sessions too, so it seems the game can't run for more then one hour before this occurs. This is a big problem. Please can this be looked at as a priority as this is a major issue spoiling my enjoyment. Are there any recommendations to stop this from happening? Many thanksLucrative Alliance trophy still broken after patch
Patch notes for 1.07 say the Lucrative Alliance trophy issue is fixed but on PS5 I have tried unlocking lucrative alliance multiple times since the patch but the trophy is still not popping. when sponsor contracts come up for review I always select the more favorable counter offer option that has a sub 40% chance of success, it always gets rejected and then I’ve tried accepting the original, proposing a high probability counter which gets accepted but no trophy. I have tried this with existing sponsor, and new sponsor. I’ve noticed in other threads requests to share the save game data files. PS5 doesn’t have an option to download those save files from console or cloud saves.F1 25 - lost crazy amount of experience etc from Practice Session (PS5)
I just installed the recent upgrade and fired up my current driver career - I was in P3 did the session and the screen said I perfected all 3, yet somehow I lost; -2,052 in experience, -3,412 in Racecraft, -1,970 in Awareness, and -3,838 in Pace!? That seems absolutely absurd for doing absolutely nothing wrong? I had no crashes of any sort, simply did the practice programme and that's it. Interested if others have had similar issues?Timing Tower in Spain & Japan – Please Add Driver Abbreviations + Animation
Currently, the Timing Tower at tracks like Spain and Japan only shows the numbers 1–0 without any driver abbreviations. This feels outdated compared to real Formula 1 broadcasts. It would be a big improvement if the tower was animated and displayed the actual driver abbreviations (NOR, VER, HAM) instead of just positions. This would make the game more immersive and authentic for players and spectators. See attached screenshot for reference example from SpainPit Line position change My Team career
I have been playing the My team career mode and recently noticed the pit box position doesn’t change based on the previous season constructor championship finishing position. I am in my second season now and I finished 8th in the constructors championship but still have to go to the end of the pit lane to box. This really needs to change ASAP as it can have a huge negative impact during a race especially if the pit lane is busy. It also ruins the immersion as it doesn’t make sense at all when a team is finishing higher and higher in the constructors championship to still have to drive the ENTIRE pit lane.
there is the end of the season bug again in the latest version of FC 24 (on PC)
Hi Guys! Did you notice that there is the end of the season bug again in the latest version of FC 24 (on PC)? In player carrier mode I can't start new season at the end of the first season. There is no appropriate button. I use the EA app (on PC), and I set the automatic update option. I reinstalled the game, but it did not help. Do you know any solution? Thank you!PS5 – "Unable to Save" Error During Races in Driver Career Mode
I'm encountering a recurring issue in F1 25 on PS5, specifically in Driver Career Mode. When I try to manually save during a race, I receive an error message that says: "Unable to save. Retry or continue without saving." Choosing “Retry” does not resolve the issue, and “Continue without saving” obviously skips the save entirely. Additional context: - Autosaves work fine outside of races - The issue only happens during races in Driver Career - I’ve already deleted and restarted the career, but the problem persists with the new save - I’m running the latest version of the game - I haven’t deleted saved data from storage yet, to avoid unnecessary loss The issue does not appear in other game modes and seems isolated to this specific scenario. Is this a known bug? Are there any suggested workarounds or planned fixes? I’d be happy to provide more info or test additional steps if needed.
FC 25 - 26 Pro clubs requests - The end ( discussion )
this will be a repost from my fifa 22 forums post, fifa 24 forums post and fifa 14 - 15 forums post ( i got banned in all of them ) and everything still applies: Starting from fifa 10-14 fifa Pro clubs was the best mode You could play . 11 vs 11 With human players the beauty of getting actual 22 players like the real life sport and a collective effort towards a goal felt unreal . After that the game mechanics changed to run down the wing simulator Where you have 1 short guy (because tall guys can never be fast) and 1 Tall guy and the short guy runs down the wing holding right trigger on your controller and presses the cross button and tall guy heads it in . It became a game that only required you to spam X button on your controller and you’ll spam away until it works and it will work . Now I’ve been fortunate enough to play in custom organized 11 vs 11 leagues since FIFA 11 . Ranked 1 club in the world to leagues like VIFA , VPSA , VPFL , iFVPAA international, VFL , IVL , WPSA , ELITE FC , FIFA K1NGZ , l Ambitious l these are clubs in XBOX and custom leagues 11 v 11 all organized by third parties with large number of players because FIFA doesn’t want it to get a competitive platform going for clubs . There was a time where people were genuinely interested in investing their time off their real life with no pay but for the passion of the specific pro clubs where the wins were satisfying and losses felt emotional . FIFA pro clubs had and still has such a potential . I’ve posted a thread in this forum 11 years ago about clubs where I proposed ideas such as : 1) ADD A SUBSTITUTION OPTION ( where if your friends join late they can be be subbed in instead of a bot if you are playing regular division club matches it’s bots and only 2 members ) 2) ADD A SPECTATOR MODE ( where if a player wishes they can sit in the bench and watch a live game as it’s being played I know someone can stream but watching a game from in game is better since if you play competitive leagues you may have more than 11 players on at the same time and based on your competitive matches you can spectate and make decisions into next game subbing people on and off while they literally watch the game from the bench making it actually realistic . 3) ADD PAID DLC so EA actually gives a s*** . It’s very clear EA does not make money off pro clubs and ultimate team is the money maker mode with all the micro transactions and that’s why they stopped caring about pro clubs mode . Now this Idea allows them to atleast make some sort of money and get more support for clubs and get some sort of motivation to help improve hardcore pro clubs players . 4)BRING BACK lobbies and 11 v 11 modes and drop ins . Yes I know it was chaotic and people fighting for same spots but atleast you didn’t constantly just play 1 v 1 in empty lobbies . The point of this mode is multiplayer and the chaos it brings but it’s beautiful when everyone works together and you are rewarded . There’s also a mode once upon a time where you could play 11 v 11 with irl players in lobbies that’s also been taken away from us .. for no reason Here I am at my mid - late 20s just reminiscing and reminding myself that I made this exact post 11 years ago posting 3 constructive feedback as a customer who cares about the game mode and willing to pay a little bit more to see a little bit more . But I know posting a constructive comment or feedback will get me permanently banned on this forums again . It’s the end of this mode it’s unfortunate the population of the pro clubs dropped 196% past 10 years gradually .. it’s 2022 moving into 2023 you can’t tell me adding 2 things that’s really hard for them ? Just 1 or 2 actual features ?? Instead of just renaming “traits” into “archetypes “ or changing specialties into “perks” these are not improving the game it’s showing veterans that you don’t care anymore about the game anymore because money runs the world . I have no words but to just say this I had to let it out and I know my ideas are not perfect but atleast I tried . I’m from Vancouver British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦 where the FIFA franchise has been made . I’m out thanks for the read if EA doesn’t permanently ban me and censor me I’m sure you’ll be able to read this . FIFA 23 is the Last ever FIFA since EA lost licensing and it has been an era of huge disappointment and they let all of down with no effort. They don't care as long as the money comes in. Now with FIFA 25 and 24 we had issues with drop ins not finding players to people hacking in FC 25 clubs modes or glitching to slow down defenders. The gameplay is dead and 10 year old games now perform better. updated add on : Instead of focusing on 1.2 Billion hair and audience animations which no one cares about why not focus on fixing gameplay , adding all the features requested to pro clubs.. or is it the greed of ultimate team packs and micro transactions thats preventing you from doing it? It is The end of what was to be best of our times . They had multiple chances to resolve multiple years to add and improve.... but now its gone. Forever a memory that cannot be re-lived again. Now with FIFA giving up ON EA the only thing they have added is "CROSS-PLAY" within same generations thats their only real "Feature" still you cannot substitute players into a match. This game the potential to be a major E-SPORT ground since 2012 if they played their cards right and maybe into top E-SPORT platform and even in Olympic E-SPORT for pro clubs 11vs11. At this point EA should just delete and close the franchise. Instead of faking it and renaming old conventions such as "traits" now being called "playstyles" then calling it a "new thing" just stop pretending and delete the franchise since you failed and get back to making a proper game like battlefield. Dont put half effort into it just go all in with full effort or give up completely . Dont waste your own time or your customers time faking it the whole time. You gave up on us ... and we will give up on you. This year is your last chance to redeem yourself as a final note before you file for bankruptcy.
