Summarize your bug Every time I begin a game in franchise mode my team's X-Factor abilities disappear while my opponent's are still there. For instance I try to begin a game with the Bucs, who have Mike Evans and his Double Me X-Factor. I go into the pre-game menu (where you can view X-Factor abilities, change uniforms, etc.) and the top three players for each team are shown. My opponents have X-Factor abilities as noted by the icon next to their pictures. Mike Evans does not have an icon next to his. I go into the pre-game options to view abilities and it says Mike Evans has one. However, once I go into the actual game it no longer shows Evans as having any X-Factor abilities, just his passive superstar ones. My opponents still have theirs. I created a new franchise with the Patriots just to see if it was the save data and the same thing happened.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into franchise mode and begin a game where the user has X-Factor players. Once in the game you will see that your players have had their X-Factors removed.
What happens when the bug occurs? X-Factor abilities for user players disappear in franchise mode games.

I’m having this exact issue on Xbox One.
August 2019
I'm having the same issue in Franchise mode. It is very frustrating to not be able to activate or utilize your X factor player like you should be able to. The X factor literally disappears everytime you start a game. I used the Green Bay packers and the only X factor on the team is Aaron Rodgers and everytime you start a game he gets demoted to have only superstar abilities. This needs to be addressed.

Still having this issue even after several weeks. In both franchise and exhibition. Can’t utilize super star X factor abilities in game. Even tried reinstalling the game and it did not work. Ridiculous this isn’t addressed yet.

So funny this still hasnt been addressed. Just got my 65 overall 5round pick 32 tight end to an 82 overall and the "mossed" x factor and this * happens. Unbelievable.

Which mode has this happened in? Face of the Franchise - QB1
Summarize your bug After playing a few seasons in Face Of the Franchise mode, my 99 overall quarterback randomly lost three of his superstar ability slots as well as his X factor ability. Checked the settings and tried turning the abilities on and off but it had no effect. The slots have totally disappeared.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Check out Face of the Franchise mode.
What happens when the bug occurs? The abilities are totally gone.
What do you expect to see? Would like the abilities to come back.
