On FUT’s 10th birthday, EA Sports announced the release of a new FIFA 19 title update.
Ironically, for once, the update is focused more on Career Mode fixing the well known bugged loan/transfer system. Here’s the rundown of issues that have been addressed:
FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT):
Addressed the following issues:
- The stats displayed on an item would show a number over 99 after scoring a goal in situations where a Training Item had been applied before the match that pushed a stat over 99.
- This had no impact on gameplay and was a visual issue only.
Kick Off:
Addressed the following issue:
- Sometimes there would be an error indicating saying ‘Kick-Off data is not available’ after changing the difficulty of the match.
Career Mode:
Made the following changes:
- Clubs will no longer send a transfer offer or loan offer for a player that has no chance of accepting a move to that club.
- This change has been made to prevent situations where a player was transfer listed or loan listed and the club would constantly receive a stream of offers from teams that the player is not going to accept a move to.
- Updates to the transfer/loan system to account for more player and club nationalities as part of the decision making process a player goes through when deciding if they want to accept an offer.
- Updates to the transfer/loan system to account for a player’s role at their current club in comparison to the role the player would have at their new club.
Addressed the following issues:
- Players that were Loan Listed were not considering the fact that they were listed for loan as part of the decision making process for whether or not to accept a loan offer to join another club.
- In comparison, players that were Transfer Listed were taking this into account as part of the decision making process for whether or not to accept a transfer to another club.
Visual/Presentation:
Made the following change:
- Updated the 2D portrait for Alphonso Davies, Samir Nasri and John Obi Mikel.
Addressed the following issues:
- In the Edit Teams screen, some leagues in the Club Transfers Detailed Search League filter were displaying debug text.
The update will be available on XB1 and PS4 early next week.
