The FIFA 15 video game was generally well received by game critics and reviewers. However, just this weekend, gamers have reported experiencing problems with "player transfers" which apparently get stuck and hang at the "completing" stage. Some reported receiving an error message acknowledging the delay, citing a "very busy" transfer market. Others reported finding their transfers have been listed as expired without completing, despite appearing to still be in progress. Game developer EA Canada has acknowledged the problem through its Twitter account and is now already working on a fix. A message from the EA support page reads: "For Xbox One and Xbox 360 players, trading in EA Sports Football Club and the FUT Web App Transfer Market will be unavailable while our teams work on resolving current issues. Thanks for your patience while we improve and restore normal FIFA Ultimate Team gameplay."
