a guy named ricema89 posted this on one of the other threads about this problem..thought id share so if someone is close to a tournament they can find out....btw i was banned for spamming. i didnt spam...but i posted a link on a thread about EA being voted the worst company by Consumerist in the United States...NAZI's much?

 

 

So, after chatting with EA Sports customer support, I may have a potential workaround for this issue, but I have not tried it yet. Here is the exact response I received during my chat:

 

 

Thanks for waiting. Just finished discussing your case with our Specialists and he said unfortunately this is a known bug on their team. A workaround he said is to 'end the season' and when the game is preparing the new season select i think B to interrupt it. You can then play that game. However this is not explained and most people would be afraid to interupt the new season setup for fear of messing something up.

 

Many of them believe its due to only be playable during the FIFA world cup time and others believe its due to only being a specialist ranked player in career to play it. But there is no official statement yet from the FIFA Studio about it.

 

Discussion is still on progress about this known bug.

 

Give this a try guys and I hope it works. Post your results after you try this and let me know if it works!"

this is an absolute disgrace. i've owned this game since launch... and i always wondered why my player only played international friendlies. finally, at the end of the 2018-19 season i decided to pay closer to attention to the "news" on the menus, and i saw my player was selected as a striker for the usa squad for the upcoming south america cup. but... even when i go to "calendar" and sim to the first fixture. i can't select it. when i continued simming (my only option) i found that all matches had been played and my player participated, apparently, because he scored a goal during the tournament. great. one goal... and i wans't permitted to manually participate in any of the matches. how could this still be an issue that EA has not responded to? this kills the game for me and i've invested A LOT of time and effort into it, as i'm at level 21 and have never played an online match. i won't be playing this game any further with the inability to play international cups with my player. i just don't understand how even a simple statement can't be made about this issue by ea. very disappointing, and like a previous poster stated... i won't be buying fifa 16 until it is clear this problem has been fixed. i can't tell you how disappointing this is. my career is the only mode i play, but i'll be playing an entirely different game now. wow...

btw... there is no way to interrupt the setup of a new season, so i don't understand why that is even mentioned as a possible workaround, at least not on the ps4.

isn't this an ea forum? why is it no one from ea will respond to this BUG that breaks the game for those who play my career exclusively?

it's a real shame. fifa 15 had replaced mlb 14 the show as my currently favorite sports game, but now it's back to mlb for me. at least their road to the show isn't broken like this game is.

The only solution is to return this game for PES 2015. The career mode atleast works.

Thanks for nothing EA, you scoundrels.

**bleep** YOU EA. I won't buy your game ever again. lock me out. i don't give a **bleep** anymore. the funny thing is... i bet you can't, because no one associated with ea ever listens to ANYTHING that is said here. can't even respond to a bug in ur game that ruins it for everyone who plays career mode. **bleep** off and take ur **bleep** game with u. i'll be trading it in for whatever i can get for it.

Agreed. I'm tired of buying software that promises things then fails to deliver. It's one of the biggest scams in the world. Well, you fooled me once, EA, I bought your game. Won't fool me twice.

well well well... EA have once again found a new way to let all of us down. this is a bug that didnt even exist in fifa 14, and now that we all bought the newest edition of fifa thinking that maybe career mode will finally be improved in some sort of way but then isnt even touched? literally copied and pasted from one game to another. and now i find out that im not the only one experiencing this glitch. this is going too far now. my story is that i am in the year of 2022 in my player career mode and have pretty much achieved everything at club level, my player overall is 91 and im one of the best players in the world. unfortunately, england didnt manage to qualify for the 2018 world which was already a big blow but i thought whatever, let me just move on and hopefully be better for the next one, becuase at that time i still had a lot of things that i hadnt achieved at club level. so when the euros came up in 2020 and i had put in all of that work finally successfuly qualifying for an international tournament, i experience this glitch. i saw that i had been selected in the squad and my player was even banging in the goals in the tournament and england got to the semis, but i hadnt actually played any of it myself. so then i thought nothing of it as i didnt really care as much for the euros than i did for the world cup, so i moved on. now, in 2022, im in the month of may. im at my 5th club in my career, we have just won the league and got into the champions league finals for the first time, so im really excited about that. the only problem is that the squads for the world cup get selected about two weeks before the final and this glitch that i thought was a one off is happening again. luckily this time i didnt save my game, and i still have a save before the squads get selected, and now i find myself here on this forum hopefully waiting for a solution to this problem (that will probably never come) and im pretty much stuck. i might aswell give up and retire. i dont want to advance my career because obviously i dont want to miss the world cup, but at the same time i want to play the CL final and win it for the first time in my career. so thanks a lot EA, thanks for nothing really, all this time and effort that i put into this game, not to mention having to deal with my **bleep** CPU teammates for 8 seasons, the least i could ask of you would be to fix a simple problem like this.
