CAREER DEEP DIVE - Discussion Thread

I've seen the Career deep dive and I'd like to ask about some features that me and many other fellow players worldwide have been asking for ages.

1) bench size: I don't know what kind of football (soccer) championships the developers are following, but years ago football rules are been updated. They update the number of substitutes on the bench. Having only seven players is very limited, because some good players and young ones couldn't fit in the subs and we have to leave them for the most of the season as reserves. This impact a lot on their average level and mood (they want to go elsewhere), because they have very few chances to play. This could be an easy fix simply letting 10-12 players on the bench. We could also have more choices during the match, also because there are 5 substitutions now and not 3 anymore. I don't think it's too difficult to make this happen, or to adjust the rule for every championship. You did a lot harder stuff, you can update this really bad thing.

2) other coaches: It was totally irrealistic that all the coaches of all the teams stay in that team for 10 or more seasons. It's just absdurd. It'd be more realistic if they can be fired and change teams like the players and other staff.
Also it's ridicolous that some coaches don't have real nor fake names. We're tired of speaking about "[Napoli coach]" in the interviews instead that with some name and surname guy (even fake it's better than nothing).

3) injuries: I hope you put more random injuries during the seasons, because regardless it's bad having an injury it's also part of the game. Since there is the career mode I always been able to complete entire seasons (like 8-10 seasons in a row) with just 3-4 injuries. I know the injuries are bad, but they exist, and if you want to make a game realistic (like Football Manager for the managing mode), you should put more random injuries through the season (even small muscle injuries).

4) footballers data: It'd be nice if any player (at least the ones playing in the competitions your team is in during the season) could have a history data with his number of games, goals and assists during that season and past seasons (from the first one you play perhaps). Like the recap we already have for our players in the current season, but for all the players. Does it require too much memory?

5) transfers: Maybe you fixed it already. We'd like to have more choices in terms of transfers, like loans with mandatory purchase or the "right to purchase", without any obbligation, and more options for the contracts.

6) national teams: Why am I doing interviews before a Coppa Italia match against some Serie B team, and I don't have an interview when I play the World Cup final with my national team?! Come on.

We'd really like to speak directly with the development team to ask these things or to understand why they chose to make it like this. You could do the best and most complete football game ever. Come on
