There continues to be a love-hate relationship between the FC 25 community and EA, with positive Title Updates being overshadowed by numerous bugs across the game.
One of those bugs has emerged within Career Mode and specifically the Live Start Points feature, leaving it both unrealistic and unplayable for many.
Bizarre Bug Leaves Career Mode Unplayable
Live Start Points was largely viewed as a welcome addition to FC 25 Career Mode, but rather than it being game-changing, it has instead turned out to be game-breaking.
That's because several players are encountering a major bug when using the feature, which sees their team bizarrely face Women's opposition by mistake. Various Reddit users have explained how their Men's team will take to the pitch alongside Women players in cup competitions, leaving them utterly bemused.
One post said: "Just started a live points career and played Liverpool in 1st game as normal and 2nd game is an FA Cup tie against Arsenal. Teams come out and it's the Arsenal Women's team???!!!!!"
Another comment read: "Why the f am I playing Spurs women’s team in the FA Cup. Just started Spurs live start and this is what happened on my 2nd game."
While some could see the funny side, other players experiencing the same issue aren't as pleased, saying that it's "totally broken" and "destroys Career Mode".
It would seem that the bug only takes effect during cup ties within a Live Start Point Career Mode, but it has emerged across various competitions including those in Spain, impacting quite a few saves as a result.
EA is yet to confirm whether or not the bug is under investigation, but as more players bring it to attention, the need for an urgent fix becomes clearer.
Although the Live Start Points feature shows signs of promise, its implementation has been poor, and this latest glitch hasn't done it any favours as players' patience wears thin.
