Freight train Nfl 100 X-Factor problems

I have the x factor on Dickerson(yes its activared) but it wont activate in game play .Anyone else have this issue?

It shows in-game that he has the factor ..just wont come on.Ive heard guys speaking of broken players and now im experiencing one.

Ive been having this issue on old gen. I definitely have it equipped and activated on my lineup screen but in game he has the ability x mark at his feet instead of the X factor. Doesnt even show up for me in game or activate.

I noticed this not only in my own gameplay, but another PS5 player -- it's not exclusive to new players/cards, for whatever reason, in various challenges the X-factor abilities are active in the roster / lineup adjustment section, then once we dive into games, poof.  Nothing.  Notta.  It happened on Dickerson (with NFL100), even Peyton Hillis.  I have since adjusted to using NFL Combine Angry Runs, which is infinitely superior.  9 plays to charge up, remains active the entire game.

Something is definitely amiss with abilities that start ON.  No real rhyme or reason why.  Unsure if this issue still persists into today, i haven't been on since last night.

Great write up man.Hopefully they fix it sooner than later.

Mine has worked sporadically will start on some games and not others but the Combine Angry Runs works fine and seems to be better in my opinion

I thought Dickerson’s NFL 100 didn’t start on but needs to be activated by 2 10+ yards runs and can also deactivate?  I haven’t pulled the trigger yet but that’s what I coulda swore I read about it. But agreed if that’s the case then angry runs might be way to go.  Never goes away

Perhaps THAT helps to explain the issue.  I was under the impression that many/most of these started ON (for 10 plays), then need to be re-activated using the in-game conditions, in this particular instance, two 10+ yard runs.  Still doesn't explain why the kid i was trying to help had his Peyton Hillis (Angry Runs) NOT active, i personally helped him set up his abilities and shared screens, so i still think there is a problem somewhere, even if i cannot place my finger on it, or clearly define what we're up against.

I could be absolutely wrong about this, or any number of topics, so please consider anything i say as the ramblings of an unhinged lunatic.

They might be fixing it,when i go to my binder and click on his pic  ,i immediatly get booted back to the welcome screen.

I just hopped on to go test this quickly, appears to be working as intended, NFL 100 X-factor started ON, while using Dickerson in a Solo Battle perhaps ~10 minutes ago.

It's unfortunate they do zero testing prior to launching new stuff, but at least they fixed it same week, you know, this is only one of THE premier content drops of the entire MUT cycle.

I checked / tested, it definitely starts ON, for ten plays before needing to be activated again.  Doesn't seem terrible, two 10+ yard runs isn't as impossible as say, two Hit Stick tackles with Lawrence Taylor to try and activate his Momentum Shift ability, oh well.

Just another reason to stick with Bo Jackson

It’s not even showing up anymore to equip for me on old gen.
