Summarize your bug I have been using the Philly offense playbook for about a week but even though it is still equipped, I am forced to use the giants offense book whenever I load into a challenge, I have contacted EA 4 times and tried every troubleshooting step and was now told to report the bug so I am sure its a bug and not something on my end
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am not sure what activated it, I just logged on one morning and instead of being able to use my equipped playbook I was forced to use the giants (original playbook)
What happens when the bug occurs? The giants playbook (favorite team so original playbook) is the playbook that is able to be used in game even though philly playbook is equipped
What do you expect to see? The philly playbook in game as it is the one I have equipped

UPDATE: changing the default playbook in general Madden settings fixes the issue even though it should not effect MUT

I have the same issue. I‘ve been playing with the saints playbook in offense and Jax in defense. 

Then i wanted to change the def. playbook to the bears and it switched everything back to the original playbooks (Jax). 

How can i fix this bug? I want the saints offense and bears defense.

I have the same problem. I was able to change defensive playbooks, but cannot change my offensive playbook. Any help?

The first two days I had the game, I played with my default offensive playbook (Browns). Then on Sunday my plays were totally different and it's the Saints offensive playbook. I don't even own the Saints book however it was my playbook in M19. The only thing that I did different was delete Madden 19. Ever since then, this happened. Then Monday it changed back to Browns again. Now today it's Saints.

Tonight I went and bought a Ravens, Chiefs and another Browns playbook. I equipped all and nothing happens. It's still is Saints. My line up says Browns however in game it's Saints plays.

I still have this problem also. It's a problem with the Main Settings Playbooks. The only TEMPORARY fix is to back out of MUT and change playbooks in the main menu settings, then go back into MUT. Just know you have to do this EVERY TIME you want to change playbooks.

When I play solo challenges, I’m given a different defensive playbook. Don’t know how to fix it. Tried changing multiple playbooks but keeps going back to the same one.
