Not sure if it's stated already, but I've already encountered a bug where when an announcement is made in a club, I can't get past the accept screen. I've tried accepting it, restarting the app, etc.

Made my own club for me and a few friends and I won't even get to play :(

Edit: Forgot to include some stuff, my platform is PS4, the only steps I made to produce this bug was I just went into clubs, made my club, then posted an announcement, then backed out into the main lobby. If a clip is needed, I can probably submit one later or tomorrow.

Hey! Sorry you're having difficulties! Can I ask what you mean when you say "get past the accept screen?" Do you mean you can't close the announcement itself?

So I some how logged into some other alt origin account on steam. How the f**k do I log out of that and and log into my main?

Contact EA for help with that:

Edit (Nov 5 2020): Try again; I believe there was a miscommunication with EA Support but we have clarified and they should be able to do this.

Hi, I'm not OP but I'm having the same exact issue.

I had emojis in my name on Steam and posted an announcement, now I can't get to the lobby at all.

Launch, left-click to continue, game starts to load, I get a problem processing game logic (ui/menu_clubs_announcement_dialog.nut #78 (UI) Tried to set a string that is not a valid UTF-8 string.) Then I get kicked back to the left-click to continue screen, but I'm softlocked and my mouse doesn't work so I have to Alt-F4 out. I'm assuming that's also what they meant by "can't get past the accept screen."

Removed the emojis from my name, verified game cache, no such luck. Re-launched through origin and same issue.

Thanks for reporting in! Looks like emojis in your name caused this issue. Sorry about this!

Could you DM me the name of your club?

It's no problem, I found it a bit funny honestly but yeah I just can't close the announcement itself. I've tried spamming "accept" on the announcement, changing tabs in the lobby, opening the friends menu, etc but none of it closes the announcement.

It's honestly my first time having a technical difficulty during a season so I don't mind it so much. I'm just glad to see the issue get noticed at all :]

It doesn't close at all? That's wild. I'm going to message you with some more questions, if you don't mind.

Hi, I'm having this exact same issue. A friend of mine created a club, and invited me and another mutual pal. One of them sent out an announcement, and now it's stuck there. The accept button doesn't do anything, esc doesn't do anything, and it's not possible to interact with any other part of the menu.

Yay, repro cases! ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Is this occurring for just you or are your friends stuck as well?

It was happening for all three of us, but it's cleared up now?? I launched the game again a good few hours later, and the button worked perfectly fine. I closed the game with the task manager, validated my steam game files, relaunched everything (etc etc etc) multiple times, and nothing worked. And then, one last attempt before I go to bed, doing nothing differently, and it runs like a dream. I have absolutely no idea why.

I will assume this is, like, the elves behind your screen weren't doing their job for some reason.

Or perhaps your PC is haunted.

...Actually, we noticed a few hiccups on our side that might've been causing delays last night. After the hiccups were cured (I'm not an engineer, I assume someone told the servers to hold their breath or surprised them or something), this issue seemed to go away with them.

I'm happy you're back in business, though! Let me know if you run into this again, please.

Hmm, if you'd like to DM me more details (where you're from, name of person who's assisting you, time you filed the request etc) I can look into forwarding that along.
