Madden 25 Draft Classes Still Not Working For You? Tell Me Your Issue

[ChaseB]

I've seen this a bunch of times even post-patch, and so I'm trying to figure out why it's not working for some of you still post-patch.

For the record, I can:

-Search by username
-Search by keyword
-Import during Week 1/2 -- both for offline and Start Today
-Download draft classes within and outside franchise mode
-I've downloaded older and newer draft classes

Now I'm testing this with FRESH franchise files post-patch, but I'm not sure if that really matters or not. I'm also on PS5. Did the roster update improve things maybe and it's gotten better in the last 24 hours?

I'm trying to understand if it maybe it works for you sometimes or never? Can you not download files? Can you not search for files? Can you not import the files? Is it all of the above? Is it that the file is "corrupt" after you DL it?

I just want to know how we're having completely different experiences so then maybe I can at least post about it or figure out what maybe people are somehow doing wrong so then I can show them the right way.

-If anyone gets a file name with SPACES in it to work let me know
-If files with NO SPACES don't work for you, please let m know.

We do have a news story up on this topic as well now.

Okay, on the X and while these aren't draft class files, I just tested downloading roster files (3 in total) and only 1 showed up as being downloaded.

So there is obviously still an issue with community files.

Oh that's helpful actually so I did try to download some roster files and only one showed up in my files. Every playbook I download with a SPACE in the name also does not download (that is/was an issue in CFB as well)

What was the specific issue with CFB, was it just playbooks not downloading -- that was an issue I had -- (Team Builder is its own mess so I keep that separate)

If it's really as simple as just upload file names with no spaces that would be rather funny, but I assume it's not the only issue. However this has a 100 percent reproduction rate for me as of now for draft classes, sliders, playbooks. Anything with a space in the name will download but doesn't actually show in my downloads.

Xbox Series X
- it Wont download either Draft class or Roster
- shows its downloading and then it disappears with no option to save the file.
I have tried to test it every day. I even switched draft classes and rosters as a test. I cant get anything.

Yeah, it was just playbooks with CBF, I had tried several different times and while it said the file downloaded, it was nowhere to be found, didn't try anything else.

As of right now, community files are definitely messed up.

By disappear you mean when you go to load it there is no file there?

Have you tried downloading files with no spaces in them -- could you try today?

When i download it…. The bottom of the screen shows “downloading” and then disappears before the loading bar completes. Just disappears.

If i check the downloaded section in the creation center it shows that it was downloaded. But its nowhere to be found. Under that tab.. there is 7 things i have “downloaded” but not 1 saved. It believes that they are downloaded, but i assure you that there is no file.

I have downloaded ones with no space… i have downloaded ones released post patch. I have uploaded my own test rosters/draft classes and cant re-download those either lol Nothing. I have filed a report with EA, i reached out to Clint and Equip Guru on behalf of the community and i haven’t heard back from any of them.
