"I'll make this very short, my FIFA 12 career mode keeps freezing and I have to restart my PS3. I have checked online and many other people are facing the same problem but could not fix this. Some forumers told me maybe I have made too many changes to my FIFA profile and such but I have not touch my profile and have not edited my VP at all since it's creation. Somehow I keep getting stuck on May 19 2014. I have tried simming on the calender but it didn't work.

Other than that, this is not the first time I've experience such error/bug. I've experienced this with FIFA 10 and FIFA 11. I have been an EA fan since 2002 so I seriously want to get some answers from the moderator or customer service regarding this matter. I hope in future when FIFA 13 comes out, error/bugs like this will not occur again because I'm seriously considering not buying anymore FIFA games. Eagerly awaiting for your reply."

I copied this from a post I put up but I am yet to get a reply and I'm expecting a reply from EA soon because I have been very unhappy with the way EA has been producing games and not fixing the problems that occur during gameplay. I know EA probably gets hate messages every day from consumers but I'm going to be diplomatic and hope some one at EA address this problem and acknowledge it because even though it may not help me now, I am hoping for this message to get across so errors like this does not occur again. It ruins the gaming experience and I, as a customer feel ripped off when something like this happens. I would appreciate greatly if some one would do something about this.

I am just trying to figure out if there is going to be a NCAA Basketball game this year or if we have to go another season without having one? Thanks.

Hi Owen
One sudgestion from me is about increasing the support on this forum. I see several posts that is ignored, dont u ever read our posts and replying? My post is just some hours old but I see forexample a guy that posted 3 days ago about his new game couldnt start. Why isnt that corrected directly? Paying customers should be treated as your major assets eh? My oppinion anyway.
long time ea fan

I really don't know why EA SPORTS don't make a VOLLEYBALL game.

It's a very popular sport in huge markets like USA, Japan and Europe.

I'm sure that using all technology of other sports games from EA would be a huge success.

Nobody understand how an olympic sport like volleyball doesn't deserve a game.

EA made other sports games with other less known sports like Australian Football and Cricket (with all respect)

Think about that.

Brazilian regards.

@Felix, well, I am pretty sure that they have someone measuring the appeal of some games on the market and they determined that volleyball just isn't viable, but there are some volleyball games from other companies... I think.

Make new Mutant League sports games. People will buy the * out of them!

Owen, I have no idea if someone's already posted this or not, but I don't care. I won't bother to read through the thread to find out, because like me, EA has done no research into common sense when it comes to these issues. The following issues not only make no sense what-so-ever, but they infuriate me to no end.

FIFA's worst features that would take 5 minutes for the programers to fix!


Clicking down on the analog stick
I'll totally understand if you have a business deal with Sony. If this feature was added to keep me buying more controllers, I'll take that at face value and * right off. I will understand a hundred percent if EA is a bunch of greedy fuckstains who want the consumer to be replacing controllers every few months. After all, we all gotta put food on the table.

But Jesus tittyfucking *, if you added it as if you thought it would make gameplay better, you seriously must be *. How do you tie your shoes in the morning? Can you make it to work alright without getting lost?! Honest to god, 2 weeks of game testing and nobody figured "Oh hey! My players keep randomly crossing the ball and the sodding tactics menu keeps coming up. Oh hey, look at that! I'm counter-attacking! Kinda wanted to stay default, but I guess the crew at EA wants me to counter attack!"

If anyone likes this feature, please quote this and leave your address so I can show up to your house and beat you into a hospital bed with my pile of broken controllers.


The non-opaque score, that gets displayed for 30, hair-pulling seconds at the bottom of the screen! WHY?!

Quick question: WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!!?!?!?! I know how to count to 1! SERIOUSLY, * WHY?! WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY!!!! JUST IN CASE YOU DIDN'T SEE THE GOAL!!! 30 SECONDS TO READ THE WORDS "Barcelona: 1 Bayern Munich: 0" IT DOES NOT TAKE 30 SECONDS TO READ THOSE WORDS!

Now, you've done a good job with all the opacity drops and gradients. Congratulations, EA! You must have the best graphic designers in the world working for you, because you have more gradients than any other marketing/game company in the world.

Now, I can deal with the useless stats that show up under the scoreboard every now and then. "Oh great, Gomez is leading Messi in shot chances by 25% What a wealth of information. Thanks FIFA!" At least that's set to %50 opacity so I can see the * behind it. NOT THE SCORE AFTER A GOAL IS SCORED! It just sits there taking up space.

The solution: * wait at the kickoff till it goes away.
Do you know how hard it is? Especially when you've been scored on? All you wanna do is hit X and start mashing players forward to try and get a goal back--- NOPE! Gotta wait or else you can't use the bottom side of the pitch, without having the score in the way!

EA, you are absolutely useless if you can't take out this annoying * feature. It's more annoying than a loud Vietnamese woman in a library, for both players!

Please get rid of this useless crap! Or at least make it an option to disable the click function of the analog stick! PLEASE! How am I supposed to afford FIFA 13 at this rate?! I keep having to buy new controllers!

I respect your opinion but what it makes a game "viable"? Selling potential, right?

Well, look the markets where volleyball is popular and think.

NCAA series (football and basketball) sells an expressive number outside USA?

Rugby series sells tons of copies around the world? I bet not.

Then why not explore a new sport game, an olympic sport, a centenary sport?

Unfortunately the last good indoor volleyball game was Women's Volleyball Championship to PS2:



It just import all technology of other EA's games (motion capture, engine, tools, etc), like they did with Grand Slam Tennis 2, for example.

By the way, what is doing now the NBA Live's staff? Put this guys to work another serie like EA Sports Volleyball League.

If the major problem is licensing, forget it, cause if we have a good Edit Mode/Creation Centre/Team Builder, comunity can do the job to create good national teams and clubs.

Brazilian regards.

It's impressive how EA ignores his own foruns.

We don't have an official word. Never.

These foruns is like a Supermarket's Suggestion Box: useless.

Just to show a fake worry about our thoughts.

So sad to see a huge company like EA with a so poor Customer Service.

Brazilian regards.
