On top of the servers being full or just going offline completely, it appears that there’s an issue with the game’s Dynasty Mode as well. Lorem Ipsum has reared its ugly head and interrupted what was meant to be a glorious day of college football. But just what exactly is it and what does it mean?

“Lorem Ipsum” is placeholder text that is put in place while something is still in development. In the case of CFB 25 and Lorem Ipsum popping up when trying to play Dynasty Mode, this is an error that’s happening because the servers are having issues. Specifically, it has something to do with the game’s connection to the cloud.

EA has used “Lorem Ipsum” as placeholder text in games before, so this is nothing new. For now, though, there’s nothing that can be done about it until the servers become more stable.

Unfortunately for some gamers, in 2024, many games require online connections even while playing offline modes. If the servers for CFB 25 are having problems, Dynasty Mode may be inaccessible, and it appears that this is the case on early access launch day.

So far, EA has not addressed the issue, but @EAHelp on Twitter/X is a good account to follow or post messages to let them know you’re having problems accessing the game. Odds are, however, that CFB 25’s popularity has overloaded the game and caused issues with the launch day.
