What happens when the bug occurs? Hi ea, I am having a ridiculous issue with Franchise mode. Everytime I play franchise mode this bug happens. The Penalty kill, power play, 4 on 4, 3 on 3 line has a bug happening where the Winger and the Center man are getting swapped. So I’m always seeing wingers play center. For example, I mostly play as Los Angeles in franchise mode, on the 4 on 4 line Kopitar (Center) gets flipped with Fiala (Winger) so Fiala is taking the face offs. When I open up edit lines and swap Fiala and Kopitar to the correct positions and I exit the edit lines screen, Fiala shows flipped back to center. The only temporary way to fix this is when it shows Fiala as Center and Kopitar as wingers flip them back to the correct positions and then switch them back (Fiala Center) Kopitar Winger then for odd reasons they flip back to the correct positions. So it seems like the coding is reversed. It last maybe a game or so until this issue occurs again. It is very annoying to edit my lines every single Game. Another often bug is when on the PP or PK let’s say if Kopitar is on PK Line 1 and he’s in the penalty box, he is replaced with a defenseman. Let’s say Doughty is on the PK Line 1 and if he’s in the penalty box, he is swapped with a forward. Two very annoying problems. I even reinstalled the game and same issue.

Kind of disappointed to be honest from someone that has been using EA products for the past 15 years and has spent well over $5,000 since then to have these issues that make the game totally unplayable. Please EA, there must be a fix to this.

Forgot to add also.

Before when during a game when I would go edit lines in the menu settings and pressed R3 on one of my player I can see his career stats. That no longer works.

I was just about to report this same bug but saw this post.

I am playing Season mode instead of Franchise, but the bug seems to exist in this mode too.  Using the Oilers, I keep having Hyman take faceoffs instead of McDavid.  Trying to swap them both mid game and from the menu in between games results in the same flipping back as soon as you leave the Edit Lines screen and return to it.  

I had not figured out that workaround, so I will try that the next time I’m in the game.  Thanks for that!

Oddly, I had not noticed this problem when playing exhibition games.  I thought maybe it had something to do with the Coach editing lines setting, but mine is set to Off.  The CPU should not be meddling with my lines.

Hope EA can fix this one soon.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In online versus direct with friend mode have the away team select a team different from the home team. go to settings to edit lines/strategies
What happens when the bug occurs? You will immediately notice in the edit lines/strategies screen that the away team is not editable for lines. the away team is showing thr home team's lines instead making it inpossible for the away team to edit their lines.
What do you expect to see? expect to see the selected team's lines in the edit lines and strategies module and not a different team. it doesnt make sense for any other team to edit lines besides the team you have selected.

@3n2pqu59wdbr Likewise. Playing on Xbox s. One example of a whole host of silly issues. EA doesn’t care about offline players

Noticed the exact same thing. Made a post in the bug report forum.

How is this bug in the game over a month after release, when they have had the same online versus mode for almost a decade!?

[x1batman1x]

This bug has been in the game for over a month... there has even been a update and they didnt bother fixing it... i think this is last time i buy anything from ea....

Did this original issue get fixed in the latest patch?  I only briefly played one season mode game last night, and my PK lines were correct.
