It's almost impossible to enjoy the experience because so many teams and players are just covered in generic faces. You choose any Premiership team, any Bundesliga or Any La Liga team and it's almost impossible to use a team without having to remove key players and replace them. There's barely any managers you can use, barely any teams you can use. This year is about as bad as it can get. At least last year we saw a partial premiership scan. This year it's just awful.
👍 Any team plans I made have mostly gone out the window. Key players I would have expected (ex. Hübers, Moriba) to be scanned are not.
Only hope now is Udinese gets starheads. Maybe EA is adding the stadium because they were scanned earliest (before Torino and whatever other teams Serie A teams that are being held back for FC 47)
btw what good is holding a Wilfred Singo scan back now as he’s playing for Monaco FFS
What bothers me so much is I’ve been wanting a la liga rescan , happy it came but is so incomplete , so many players left this year to other leagues, so la liga is going to look barely touched. My hope is they scan the new promoted clubs and we have more faces coming for launch day . Can’t remember but in years past are faces added that we’re not in the beta?
@scfatotboyland the comment about Doku wasn't aimed at EA not scanning him. Just means Man City are unplayable for me now due to him being generic. My problem is there is just so few teams to use without having to remove players due to them being generic. The fact that Doku isn't already scanned or has a custom is also really poor from EA. We're in 2023. They have 5 times the amount of scanning rigs they had a few years back. They have the fund spare after separating with Fifa to invest into more partnership deals. They have scanned 4 womens leagues in 2 years yet for Men in the past 2 years we have had Bundesliga and La liga with loads of important players missing and a partial Premiership rescan. It's not good enough. Serie A and Ligue 1 should have deals in place by now and be scanned anyway which means when someone like Doku transfers to a big club he's already scanned and ready to go. Expecially Ligue 1 which produces to many talented players that get bought around Europe every year.
As for La Liga that's it. You can't develop youth players you only have players for here and now so career modes die out very fast when you refuse to use generic players. An as mentioned when players in their prime are getting held back and added years later those players are no longer fun to use because who targets players 30+ in career modes for signings? I know I only focus on players aged 26 and below with the exception of the odd transfer so it's crucial that EA scan and add players 16-20 years old with high potential. Makes career modes more authentic and have more life span before all the scanned players get too old.
This year has been very very poor thus far and only 1 year have we had more scans added at release that wasn't in the beta so the chances are we could be waiting a couple of months for title updates before we see anything more than what's in the beta.
