As a longtime college football gamer and avid fan of the sport, I’m both thrilled and somewhat disappointed with the launch of EA Sports College Football 25. The game’s impressive player numbers have me excited for the experience ahead, but I can’t help but feel let down by some of the known issues that have arisen post-launch.
College Football 25, the long-awaited first college football game from EA Sports in over a decade, is getting off to a strong start with notable player statistics. However, not everything is running smoothly for this new release. Several problems have surfaced which the developers are actively addressing following its launch. Here’s a rundown of the current bugs to keep an eye on before upcoming patches–bear in mind that some of these may have already been fixed by the July 23 patch.
As a gamer, I’ve noticed that EA has acknowledged some errors with player rosters and likenesses in the game. They’ve assured us that they’re working hard to correct these issues. Given the massive number of athletes and schools in the game, such inaccuracies were unfortunately anticipated. The developer even warned us about this before the release.
An extra challenge, EA notes in their announcement, is that the game will debut concurrently with the usual roster changes in college football during summer. Dynasty fans who are particularly devoted can begin playing right away or wait for a roster update closer to the college football season start for the most current experience.
Instead of just mentioning “visual and roster inaccuracies” and “issues with the game’s Dynasty mode,” you could rephrase it as: “There are several problems with EA’s Dynasty mode that need attention, including some glitches affecting the visual representation and rosters. One major problem is a bug preventing some users from loading their previously saved online dynasties, which EA plans to address urgently. In addition to fixing bugs, EA intends to adjust the underlying logic of the Dynasty mode based on player feedback.”
EA has announced that many of these problems will be addressed through an update they call a “Title Update,” which is handled on the console side. Here’s where you can find the complete list of identified issues.
