While telling your keeper to charge forwards into the opposition area is a legitimate tactical move in football, it’s usually inadvisable to do it at kickoff.
Which is why FIFA 15 fans are rather annoyed at a bug in the latest edition which causes the opposing team to all charge towards the center circle.
While amusing to watch, that’s a pretty big foul-up for such a high-profile game. It appears to only affect PC users right now, and despite some users suggesting that reformatting the computer solves the issue, that doesn’t seem to work for everyone. Plus, that can be an arseache anyway, so you don’t want to do it unless you absolutely have to. A community manager for EA Sports popped up on the game’s forum to assure fans that the developers are looking into the problem.
”I just wanted to pop in again and let you all know that we are still looking into this as we speak”, they posted. ”We made good progress so far and would like to verify some of our discoveries by comparing DxDiag reports of users experiencing this issue.”
If your game has been affected by the bug, there’s a guide on how to generate a DxDiag report here. Head on over to this thread to post it. We’ll keep an eye out to see if EA Sports manages to squash the bug.
