While FIFA 23 is still waiting, the web app has already been released. However, players are struggling with errors there. Now EA announces which problems are currently being addressed.
What is going on with the FIFA 23 Web App? Since the FIFA 23 Web App was released on Wednesday, players can start building their FUT clubs, operate on the transfer market, and solve SBCs.
There were login issues around the launch of the web app, which have now been resolved. However, these are not the only problems currently present in the app.
An error that quickly caught many players’ attention is that some SBCs are simply unsolvable. They require chemistry values that mutually exclude each other and cannot therefore be completed at this time.
SBC cannot be submitted: Another example is an SBC that appears to meet the requirements, but cannot be submitted. Players also puzzled over this – and found that the problem seems to lie with a bugged position in the 5-3-2 formation, which does not provide chemistry. If chemistry can be achieved with the rest of the team, the SBC can apparently be submitted.
Additionally, players noted further errors, such as incorrectly assigned leagues on Lúcio’s hero card. He exists as a Serie A variant, but also in the Bundesliga. Such things are currently shared by players on reddit:
Now EA has responded to the error reports.
What does EA say about the problems in the FIFA 23 Web App?
This is what EA says: On the Twitter channel “FIFA Direct Communication,” EA addressed the problems. For example, Lúcio’s card was discussed: players should receive their coins back if they purchased the card in the transfer market. The same applies to Hideoshi Nakata’s card, which also had an incorrect league on it (via Twitter).
Furthermore, it was explained in a tweet that several problems in the FIFA 23 Web App and Companion App are now being investigated. The complete list has been documented in the “EA Sports FIFA Tracker” on Trello.
An overview of the current issues that are being investigated (via Trello):
- Some cards do not display a name – like Pelé and the new icon Jairzinho.
- Some SBCs cannot be completed, even if the requirements are fully met.
- FUT heroes give chemistry in a wrong way – like icons. In fact, the chemistry influences of both card types differ in the new chemistry system.
- Some SBCs require exact rather than minimal chemistry and are therefore unsolvable. This is the error that makes some SBCs mathematically unsolvable.
- For some SBCs, the word “untradeable” is not displayed directly next to the rewards, but only in the SBC description. Therefore, one should pay close attention – otherwise, one might solve an SBC with the hope of being able to share the rewards on the transfer market, and then it won’t be possible.
- Some Nakata and Lúcio cards still display the incorrect league. The items should show the correct league when they are received or added to transfer targets.
There are already several problems to solve here. The complete FIFA 23 release is set to arrive next week.
Despite the errors, the new chemistry system has already caused discussions among players. For instance, cards no longer give chemistry if they are not in their correct position, leading to confusion when building SBCs.
Another significant change: The popular SBCs at launch now only give untradeable bonuses. However, this does not seem to be a bug.
