EA ‘aware’ of FC27 glitch showing women in their underwear, promises fix in next update

A glitch in the EA Sports FC 27 video game, which saw some women’s players appear in their underwear, will be resolved by a title update, the game’s manufacturer Electronic Arts has announced.

EAFC27, part of the world’s largest football video game franchise, was released in the United States and worldwide on September 25. Users with early access to the game, which went live on September 18, reported that some women’s character models would, in certain cut-scenes, appear without their kits, wearing only black underwear.

Fix it, but then also make it an option in the settings that also affects the men.

  And that is how the world found out that Messi has three testicles.

This kind of thing is fairly common in gaming. I stopped giving my Skyrim kids new outfits because, the way the game would handle it, the character would unequip their previous outfit and then equip the new one. On a fast PC, it happens instantly, or near enough that you would not notice. However, on the Xbox 360, or a potato PC, there are a couple of seconds where the character appears “nude” for a second or two.

To qualify the “nudity”, all Skyrim kids have the same body and face. There are hair types and they are gender-specific, and that’s how you get boys and girls. Both have painted-on underwear. “Panty” style with a tube-top “bra” for girls and “boxer briefs” style for boys. The child outfit comes in four colours (IIRC) and is also gendered. It’s a dress for girls and a shirt and pants for boys. In both cases, the top is coloured and the bottom is grey, IIRC.

A simple solution would have been for the “nude body” to include the outfit in white. But hey, what do I know? I am not a programmer.

Another solution would be to stop using the adoption system entirely. Nothing forces you to have kids in the game. Of course, we’re all still going to adopt off-brand Aerith, right? (If you don’t know, just keep an eye out for a girl in a red dress selling flowers. She’s in Windhelm, where the Stormcloaks operate out of.)

  I don’t generally do the adoption thing in Skyrim, but I’ll be damned if I don’t bump into flower girl and give her a place to live. I might be the leader of the Dark Brotherhood, but I’m not a monster.

  So, it's not a nude body after all?

    Depends on your definition of nudity. Plenty of people post “nude” or “naked” in the NSFW subs and they are wearing underwear.
    
    There’s a certain definition that these people subscribe to that describes nudity as wearing less clothes than you’d be comfortable going out in public. That it’s a form of vulnerability. I always thought it meant completely nude, like not a thread on them. Others disagree.
