EA Sports FC 24 players are facing an unexpected bug where the SBC (Squad Building Challenge) TOTW (Team of the Week) +83 is yielding only gold players, a significant deviation from the anticipated high-rated TOTW players. This glitch is causing quite a stir among the gaming community.
EA’s Response: Disabling the Feature and Planning Compensations
Acknowledging the issue, EA has temporarily disabled the SBC 83+ TOTW Player Pick to rectify the problem. An official statement from EA’s Twitter account reads, “We’ve identified an issue with the SBC 83+ TOTW Player Pick… We have removed this SBC while we work to correct the problem.”
Compensation for Affected Players
Players who were impacted by this bug can expect compensations. EA announced, “Players who had this SBC in progress will retain this progress once the SBC returns to FC 24. Those affected who received incorrect player items will receive in-game messages with the correct player items in the coming days.”
Community Frustration Over the Glitch
The glitch has sparked considerable frustration on social media, with players voicing their disappointment over receiving lower-rated players than those required for completing the SBC.
This issue is particularly problematic for players aiming to acquire high-value players like Mbappé or those from the Winter Wildcards promotion, as it hinders their ability to enhance their squads effectively.
