Clubs Infinite Stamina
The infinite stamina is an issue that entirely affects how clubs games feel and makes things too unbalanced in favor of teams with a lot of users and for pace (which already has a big advantage generally). Going back to the older system of long-term stamina drain would help a lot to make things feel normal again.Games not counting: "error communicating with EA servers" at end of match
Problem: At the end of a Clubs game, after the final whistle goes, all players on the team are presented with a message along the lines of "There was an error communicating with the EA servers". The game is not counted in the clubs stats like it never happened and no one gets XP. Game breaking when trying to progress through play offs. Frequency: Currently happening in say 1/4 games. Have seen multiple posts on Reddit reporting the same problem. First noticed: This started happening mid December, have played clubs constantly since release so somethign has be broken since then. Matchmaking Region: British Isles/ Western Europe Platform: Xbox Series X and PC (we play cross play have players on both)
Human Goalkeeper - Pro Clubs - The worst ever.
I Play as GK on PC since 2014 in Pro Clubs mode and it's the worst update and the one that has changed the most in the history of the franchise for the goalkeeper position. I played for about 20 hours and it's terrible and frustrating for those who were expecting the improvements you promised. 1- Pressing R3 to the side at the moment of the shot or during the animation simply leaves half the goal exposed and the goalkeeper has no reaction to defend some point-blank shots on his own. 2- You have introduced things that are impossible to achieve given the server response time, especially for shots from inside the area. There's no way we can expect the guy to shoot from inside the small area and react in time to defend, since this is a video game and we depend on delay, lag, input lag, and online servers. 3- Sometimes you get everything right, positioning, R3, and even so, the ball goes in. 4- Short-range shots are very powerful, even if the offensive players are not completely up to date. 5- There are weak balls where you use a command like R3 or ball for the goalkeeper to hold the ball, and he does nothing, and the ball goes over his head. 6- The Far Reach Plus and others PS+ animation is still not activated on shots, just like in the previous game. 7- Holding down the triangle button on crosses no longer has any effect because the goalkeeper no longer goes for the ball, and when he does, he doesn't catch it. Even if you press the new “ball” button for the goalkeeper to catch the ball, sometimes he doesn't catch it. The controls simply don't work. 8- The way it was before was much less worse. Have you ever played in that position to know what it's like and how the servers respond? 9- I spent $3,000 on a powerful computer to run this new game smoothly on the Be a Pro camera, to play competitively, and look what you bring us. This is extremely discouraging. You need to fix this urgently. 10- Now human goalkeepers are worse than BOTS. Unless you are a superhuman with super reflexes and play inside EA's server, you will not be able to outperform a BOT. 11- Now all GK defensive assists are manual, regardless of whether you set the game settings to semi or assisted. Sometimes the ball passes just centimeters from the goalkeeper and he doesn't save it. 12- LT/L2 (Jockey button) does not work using the GK on PC. 13- Often you time your jump right to grab or punch the ball, but your goalkeeper still loses the aerial battle to the attacker or defender and concedes a goal. 14- I've been playing this game mode in this position for over 10 years, and this time is definitely the most frustrating and humiliating of all.
FC 25 PRO CLUBS BUGS.
ATTENTION EA, PLEASE READ. ALL known GLITCHES with FC 25 pro clubs: 1. Playing as any and CAM will often start your pro in LB/LWB, and an ai LM/RM in CAM. 2. Playing a back 5 formation will start an ai LB/RB in CB and generally many ai players in wrong position, such as an ai LM in cm. 3. Changing the preferred foot of customisable ai players does not correspond in game. Within a game, ai players have a different preferred foot to the one you chose and as stated on the menu’s. For example, left footed right back. 4. Customising AI player faces within a club does not correspond in game. Many customised AI faces revert back to a kind of default looking Asian face despite how it has been modified and appears in the menu’s. 5. When matching with another team whether through divisions of friendlies, a player is often unable to make it to the opponent found page and is locked out, forcing the team to play without one of their players. 6. Large majority of PC players utilise cheats, such as making the AI players in their club 99 rated, with more than two gold + traits … there will be more but these are what I’ve experienced, pictures available to help showcase problems if needed.
Pro Clubs - Upcoming 20,000 Instant AXP Missing
I don't have the notification in my 'News' regarding the upcoming 20,000 Instant AXP, whereas my friends do (image taken by a friend). Similarly, I never received the 35 game AXP boost. Are these promos bugged, or are these promos are targeted so not all players get them? I don't know why the latter would be the case though, as it isn't fair to arbitrarily reward certain players.Clubs boots, hairstyles , overall customisation
Pro Clubs Players Deserve Better Customization – Boots, Hairstyles, and More Dear EA Team, I’m writing this on behalf of the Pro Clubs community who have been dealing with the same frustrations year after year. At this point, players feel ignored, and it’s time this mode gets the respect it deserves. Boots Issue For years now, Career Mode and Create-a-Player have always received the full selection of real-life boots and live updates, while Pro Clubs gets left behind. In Clubs: New boots that get added elsewhere never appear for us. Some boots that were available at launch are even removed later on. We’re stuck with a handful of generic EA boots that don’t look good or realistic. Clubs is the mode where people spend hundreds of hours building their Virtual Pros. Looks matter. Boots are part of a player’s identity, and it doesn’t make sense that Clubs players get fewer options than every other mode. Ankle Tape Another missing feature is ankle tape. This is a small detail, but it makes a huge difference for realism and immersion. It’s been requested for years, yet it still isn’t available in Clubs. Pro Clubs is all about expressing yourself, so why are we missing something this basic? Club Store vs Real-Life Gear We also want to highlight the Club Store. While there’s lots of content there, most of it is not what players actually want. We don’t care about generic EA-made boots and random designs — we want the real-life boots that already exist in other modes. Put all those authentic boots in Clubs. Let the Club Store be for cosmetics, but boots should never be restricted or replaced with fake designs. Hairstyles and Player Customization The hairstyle catalog in Clubs and Career Mode has basically been the same for five years. Meanwhile, generic players in the game have updated hairstyles that we cannot even select for our Virtual Pros. If the hairstyles are already in the game, why can’t we access them? Pro Clubs is about identity and self-expression, yet players are stuck with outdated, unrealistic hairstyles that nobody wants to use. We need: Access to all hairstyles in the game, including the ones on generic faces. Regular new hairstyle updates, just like you do for boots. Better realism so players can recreate themselves or real footballers accurately. The hairstyles we’ve been given for years are poor quality, unrealistic, and frustrating. The community has been asking for more variety for too long. Evidence in Images The attached images show exactly what we mean: The boots shown with the Lyon kit are Clubs boots. The boots shown with the Man City kits are available in Career Mode, Create-a-Player, and Kick-Off, but not in Clubs. You’ll also see generic faces with hairstyles that players cannot access in Clubs or Career Mode. If these assets already exist in the game, there’s no reason why they can’t be available in Pro Clubs. Final Message – Fix It Now, Not Later This issue has been around since FIFA 22/23. At the very least, Clubs players should have all the same boots, hairstyles, and customization options as Career Mode and Create-a-Player. We should also be able to customize boot colors, just like other gaming franchises allow. Please don’t wait until FC 27 to fix this. This is the start of FC 26, and it’s the perfect time to show Pro Clubs players that you value this community. Add the missing boots, improve hairstyles, bring in ankle tape, and give us the customization we deserve. We know this can be done, and it will only make people play Clubs more. If you make these changes, the community will genuinely appreciate it, and it will prove that EA is listening to the players who have supported this mode for years. Pro Clubs players are frustrated, but we’re also hopeful. Please make these changes now.
THE PROBLEMS WITH GOALKEEPER
Hi, im a Content Creator on YouTube, iTz Superfly and have been playing since FIFA 98 and Been playing GK from FIFA 11 to present im a competitive player in Leagues. so i would like to think i know a lot about this position. with that being said if one of the Community Managers wants to reach out to me and discuss a few things, quickly before i list off a number of problems that needs addressing. i have applied for the Creator Network and would love to be apart of the team if again a Community Manager could help me with this would be fantastic. So Firstly i want to say the Game feels great im loving the game but these are my issues with GK in Pro Clubs i'll start with the most important to least important but they all need Improving a lot, 1. None of the playstyles work and here's some examples, * Footwork playstyle - Never Ever Triggers not even for low shots like intended, 1 - 100 shots maybe saved with the Foot. * 1 on 1 GK rush Playstyle - When you Rush out the GK just slides even if the player hasn't even taken the shot and even stopping with the rush to set your feet still don't work , the animations for this playstyle is completely useless. very lucky if you actually make a save doing this. - Why cant we rush out and make ourselves a Big target so we have more chance to save ( This playstyle is probably the one that needs looked at most ) * Deflector Playstyle - Now this playstyle might as well be removed from the game, i understand that the coding for this must be very hard as how can the game predict where other players will be to not push the ball into their path but that being said it needs serious work or why cant we catch the ball more with our 90+ Handling * Removal of the Reflex Playstyle - GK's need a playstyle like this to help us compete against players with 98 Finishing and 98 Shot power that's without the playstyles added to that. 2. GK reaction time needs to be way faster when flicking the Right Stick in the Direction of the ball as most of the time you can be standing in the perfect position and the shot will come at you and the GK just watches it go in with No Reactions even if you Flick the RS 3. Auto positioning needs working on When players are outside the box the Auto Position pushes you onto your 6 yard line making long shots much easier to score, the movement needs to be much faster and smarter. even with 99 positioning. 4. Get up from the floor much faster or try and make another save while on the floor if the ball is shot near you At the Time of Writing this i am 110hrs playtime on FC 25 level 100 but With all that said the game feels great and some of the animations are great! but the problems i have mentioned is not coming from someone who has only played a few years ive been playing GK since FIFA 11 the introduction of the GK position i know how good GK's used to be and this isnt it, everything is heavily favoured in the Attackers and so it should be they are shooting the ball into the net but we need more for GK's the games just dont feel great anymore with bags of goals it needs to be a challenge for Attackers to Score against GK's Ai or Human Controlled, i have a few ideas that could help that. 1. Attackers if they have Low Samina and shoot the shot power will be less or less accurate 2. GK's need better Playstyles like: * Shots inside the box GK has Quicker reflexes and dives * GK's can see an indicator under the Attackers Feet when they are about to shoot ( this used to be a feature ) this gives GK's a chance to not flick the RS early and read the game better * more chance to Catch the ball from shots Like i said im the Biggest GK Content Creator on YouTube that plays Competitively and Live streams all games and the whole GK community wants changes no one wants to play GK anymore and that would be a sad day for the pro clubs community. i love this game and i just wish you had Pro Clubs content creators on board who play the game at a high level and been doing it for years and know what they are talking about when it comes to a balanced game, because believe it or not even the attackers in pro clubs hate how bad GK is. i know you have VPG on board but you need more, im putting my self out there to help improve the clubs side of gameplay and in general improve the whole game with ideas. i hope you find this post not an attack but a helpful post and highlighting what needs changing. i look forward to your response.
