Season 3 Bug/Glitch Thread

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Heck, unless EA plans on updating the percentages, they're worthless anyways lol. 49% poor release 3? Splash. 69% perfect release? Clang and out of bounds! Useless anyways...

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

As this page is getting longer and longer, our "official EA employee" hasn't been on this site for 13 days.. wonder he knows if there's this many problems/if he even plays this game actually like one of us...?

Glad to see SD stamina finally has changed, but as much as other people talked about saying "it will take more than maintainence" it was pretty simple update. So.. I'm curious why they can't fix other issues "easily"? or what made them fix it so "quick"?

It seems like only more questions come up instead of answers..

at least it's not as one sided and cut throat as last NBALM forum with previous mods..

The official EA employee is the lead content designer. He's been active on Twitter as well as other places like reddit, Josh's discord server and also his live streams. Trust me, he's heard all of the complaints. You can direct message him on Twitter if you like. If you're lucky you can catch him on the discord server.

Fixing the stamina problem required a client update which takes time to clear. EA is aware of the LvL glitch but it's not clear how long it will take to solve the problem. Remember how long it took them to fix the Legacy event bugs last season? Problems can't always be solved in a day.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

Well, I kid you not, I removed the feedback window and Harden legit hit 18 3s without missing across 3 games lol. Maybe a coincidence from all the bricks? Who knows lol but it was unreal. I lost one of the matches too lol 6 3s and lose yikes

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

I have played a lot of matches today, at least 30 and twice has the opponent been rated at 78 or below. 78 is my rating. I guess it makes sense from EA's perspective. Continuously shovel higher opponents on people to push us to spend more money in the store...

That can depend a lot of how much you push since the start. If you want to be cream-top-100 since the opening you'll only face the best of the best the whole time.

I'm between 500th and 600th atm and can count 17/39 opponents with 77 ovr or less in the match history.



Btw, regarding glitches and changes - one other thing they changed was the legacy event counter. it would stay at 17/18 max since one of the two day-events wouldn't be open. But now it's 17/17. Yet, now there's an attention-bubble in an empty space

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

It?s hard enough getting to 1.5m fans in 2 weeks, how are supposed to do it in 1? People have lives, surely that will change. <I>But probably with 4 hours to go before the season ends.</I>

Thanks for the laugh.

I've been playing a lot of SD too because once the new campaign comes out stamina will be a factor again.

That is exactly why I'm mentioning it. Because there were enough people to complain in S2 which a lot of things they never fixed while people including myself have been complaining to EA forum/Muthead/EA customer service/and of course NBALM yet not much has changed, which somehow this "Josh" guy found "annoying" when I was discussing about issues in S2 as we are doing currently. This "LvL Glitch" they had since S2 is last of my worries. Honestly at this point I'm just glad they expanded LvL chat and they got rid of spaces they could have done before. As far as there's "EA Employee" on this site to "hear our problems" is huge step forward, but what good is it when only problem adds and not much solutions comes out? Since you mentioned Legacy in S2, you must have played since S1, which I'm more than sure you'd understand exactly what I mean when I say more problems than solutions come up. Dropping new Live Events and whatnot is amazing, but honestly these could have been planned out and prevented during "maintainence" between S2 and S3. If there are issues that has been around since S1 or even S2, it can't be that hard to debug/patch. Especially EA being not some 3rd app developing company. I'm tired of complaining for things that won't get fixed and tired of reading "thank you for your suggestions! We will take it to our...... blah blah blah"

I'm more than sure this won't make any impact, but I'm just hoping they'd find someone that actually play this game or genuinely test the game before launching it. It shouldn't be hard for company that net worths $34.44B as of September 13, 2018. Can't be hard to find a mobile game developer to debug, which I'm more than sure "affording" a nice progammer/developer/debugger won't be a problem for them especially when they charging quite bit of money for the game and made it to pay to win. Just sharing my thought.

That's because, in theory, the legacy campaing events will reset every time a new campaign/promo comes out.

So tomorrow the legacy campaign should have new events.

There it is. I was afraid maybe this had something to do with it but I've never done this "well" at the start of a showdown before now. I finally fall out of the top numbers and I start to get more reasonable opponents.

This is a small bug, but I pulled this card out of a pro pack today. That's a picture of Torrey Craig, not Sterling Brown.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

If anyone is interested about the glitch in League achievements, the game was tracking individual wins instead of league wins so if you have 5 members in your league and you won your first tournament it counted as five tournament wins instead of one.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

If this is duplicate post, I'm sorry in advance.

Does anyone see opp's player suddenly move like "Flash"(comic book character) when they are by the rim with the ball? Like I just saw Kuzma literally moving like Flash and scored...?

Yes I've had that. Also had the opp slide on one foot with the ball from the 3 point to the hoop lol.

I was excited about them adding the showdown bonus but it's just more of the same even though I went from 78 to 79. It's consistent. Lose 5-6 win 1. Lose 5-6 win 1. Gain zero fans this way and fall further down the ranking.

Rebounding is still ridiculous, but that's when the opponent actually misses a shot, which lately just doesn't happen. Contested shots, doesn't matter. Really hate the fadeaway 3 that is pretty much 95% success for the computer, and the worst part is it doesn't even matter who is shooting it. Dwight Howard? Splash, Rudy Gobert? Splash. Deandre Jordan? Splash. These players don't even shoot mid range shots in real life, but they don't miss midrange on this game and they can make the automatic fadeaway 3s. These are of course when controlled by the computer. It's ridiculous.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

+3 stat boost was enough to increase my base Westbrook from 80 to 81, so yeah.

Which coach do you use?

Currently, rookie Spoelstra, but originally silver Luke Walton (+3 to mid-range at max) was enough too.

I am completely out of the loop, but are there certain stats that if boosted are likely to increase OVR?

It's pretty random based on your lineup. Just have to keep experimenting.

Re: Season 3 Glitch Thread

not exactly a glitch, but again it's something that should have been changed and it wasn't - the remaining gold lottery balls have no quick sell value after the end of the rookie promo and we can't do anything with them. 100 coins each would be reasonable.

I hate that. After every promo I'm left with some garbage that can't be gotten rid of. I have 18 of those gold lottery balls taking up my inventory space and nothing to do with them.

Last I checked it was the same way with Harden Thunder Tokens or whatever they're called. No way to get rid of em. Possible that they can still be used in the next chapter though

Those can be quicksold for 50 coins a piece
