Spurs would be such a fun career mode! Just too many generics to use them. There's not 1 premiership team that I can use this year because all of them have key players missing scans that I want to use.
Most of the Bundesliga teams have bought generic players since last year so they're no good. Serie A is a mess so Juventus aren't really an option, PSG went on a generic buying spree so they're unuseable now and the lack of full team scans in La Liga make almost all career modes unuseable if you're a star head freak like me and refuse to play with any players without scans.
The players do look very cartoon like compared to previous games. Expecially in the edit modes. On next gen consoles they look like Nintendo graphics. They have removed tattoos from players like Darwin, Stones, Walker etc, the stand hair still has the problem where it changes the players hair colour making it look nothing like them.
The new fitness/sharpness feature in career mode is annoying as hell since I'm OCD and constantly want my players at full stamina in matches which means I never seem to have any sharpness unless I let players go into matches with stamina missing. The coaches is just a pointless feature, what exactly does it do?
The game play is decent enough. I'm not one to go crazy over game play. Give me game play from fifa 5 years ago and a game full of scans and I'd be much happier than having improved game play and not teams to do career mode with.
Fact they haven't rescanned any new managers when that was a huge new feature just last year is very very poor. I expected all the La Liga teams managers to be rescanned.
Overall when I played the beta and played on my friends game for a bit yesterday I just don't see anywhere near enough to buy it the game.
I'd probably do a Dourtmond career mode and Espanyol RTG and a Real Madrid career mode, get bored after half a season of each career mode and then sit patiently waiting for updated with more starheads (that may never come because EA doesn't know how to communicate)
For an offline player I just don't see how this installment is worth the price of the game. Hoping Efootball drop master league so I can play that for a while and then maybe buy EAFC in the black Friday sales or even the January sales if they add a lot of updates
