Controller Bug: Using two separate controllers, both assigned to user profiles, and then using controller two to navigate the bootflow when EA FC 24 Coins is loading can result in a crash. The EA Sports FC dev team will be fixing this issue as soon as possible (shortly after launch) but, in the meantime and as a workaround: please only use controller one to navigate the bootflow of FC 24. You can turn on and use the controller two once in the main menu. Bootflow Issue: If you suspend the console (leave it inactive until it ’sleeps’) on the title screen in the Xbox One bootflow, you will not be able to access any online features when returning from an unsuspended state. As a workaround: don’t suspend the console when on the title screen. If you do, simply restart the console (XB1 Only).

Aside from these 'emergency' issues, EA is also tackling a selection of minor difficulties, ones that the company hopes to remedy as part of "an upcoming title update." Unfortunately, the company's use of language makes it less-than clear whether any of these additional issues — some of which affect the PS4 version also - will be fixed in the very first title update or as part of a larger, later solution.

 EA Sports FC fans cannot join Friends Only matches via a friend’s profile (PS4 Only). You should: Accept the invite from the user when it comes through and you will be able to join the match properly. Title crash in Co-Op seasons if the captain is using a custom formation and the non-captain does not have any custom formations (XB1 Only).

The ‘Seasons Win’ item in the EA SPORTS FC catalogue will not be properly received if gifted to a friend.

(BOTH PS4/XB1) You should: Hold off on gifting this item until the upcoming title update. Compatibility improvements with Xbox voice commands (XB1 Only). When playing as a GK in Pro Clubs, you will have no way of changing the camera off of the ‘End To End’ camera (XB1 Only). Following last week's PR nightmare involving EA and Sony — which saw the publisher openly blame the PlayStation manufacturer for software issues, (before later retracting said accusation) — it's unsurprising to find the company opting to take responsibility here.

Rather than make any more wild accusations, the statement actually calls for understanding, making reference to other launch day difficulties, in an effort to contextualize its own mistakes. While EA certainly aren’t alone in rushing out untested products, the scale of these day-one issues does indicate a reluctance to perform the same kind of extensive testing once commonplace among older, offline titles.
