On the afternoon of March 26, EA released a new FIFA 18 update. Here are the patch notes for PC, Xbox One, and PS4 in German.
This afternoon, the latest title update was released for PC, with a size of 1.5 GB. The changes are minimal; there are no adjustments to gameplay, but it mainly concerns cosmetic bug fixes. The patch for PS4 and Xbox One will be released a few days later as usual.
However, the update appears to have caused a bug that results in matches lasting two minutes longer for players – we will report more on this after the patch notes.
All patch notes for the latest title update
The bug fixes are limited to a FUT Champions Channel bug, a display error at the goal net, and two button errors. Additionally, the “Arsenal Tuba Banner” and the “Club America” items have been adjusted.
Here is the official changelog in German:
New bug due to the patch
Update March 28, 2018: The patch is now also available on Xbox One and PS4, the error appears to have been fixed!
On the release day of the new title update, the first complaints were heard on Reddit: The patch is said to have created a bug that costs players up to two minutes per game.
After each game, there are sequences in which players leave the stadium, as well as a match report. Normally, these sections can be skipped, as there are hardly any players who watch these scenes in full.
Since the patch, these cutscenes apparently can no longer be skipped. Thus, players are forced to watch around two additional minutes of cutscenes after each game.
The community is, of course, not very pleased. “Great patch, now you can't skip the replays after the game, which means you need 2 minutes more per game.” – This is how a Reddit user aptly summarizes it.
After FUT Birthday, we can expect four more major events: Here is the FUT 18 event calendar for the rest of the FIFA 18 season.
