Re: Youth Academy Players can’t get a Playstyle+

They still don't generate for regens that generate above 80 overall. For example, a French CF regen rated 90 overall would never have the possibility of a playstyle+. This only further exacerbates the lack of balance between player and CPU teams.

Players generated over 80 overall should have the same chance of a playstyle+.

Ideally, full editing should be available like with xfactor abilities in other EA games rather than having arbitrary restrictions because ultimately, the playstyles that generate quite often don't match the type of player they are, or the type of player they are developed into.

Thanks for the response.

Edit: Just to add some additional context, playstyle+ appear on 7/8 players rated 90+ in the latest squad update. From 85-89 it appears on at least 40/84 players with a heavy weighting to higher overalls. As goalkeepers don't seem to have playstyle+ in the base squads, the numbers for outfield players are quite a bit higher, although I haven't calculated it yet. This would suggest that there perhaps should be multiple overalls at which a playstyle+ should generate with increasing odds each time, if full editing isn't a possibility.

Thanks for taking the time to look at this.

@EA_LeonSK Please address ^ Would be soul crushing to get a youth player up 20 overalls and find out the play style + chances are like 5%

Yes, since the latest patch, having progressed 30 YA players over 80 ovr in testing I am yet to see one playstyle+.

One of the biggest issues as I see it is the complete lack of transparency in patch notes. Outside of patch 3 where it specifically mentioned playstyles on GKs, there has been no mention of playstyles at all. We need clear communication about the changes being made and ideally, the actual plan for playstyle and playstyle+ in career mode in general.

I see 3 options to satisfy the CM community.

1. Tiered playstyle progession at landmark OVRs with increasing odds at each level I.e. 80, 85, 90 etc, with near 100% odds for a playstyle+ at 90. Further to this, having a chance to gain other additional standard playstyles at these OVR landmarks.

2. Attribute-based playstyles where playstyles and playstyle+ can be selected at certain attribute levels I.e. aerial at 85 jumping, aerial+ at 90 jumping.

3. Full playstyle editing. If it's to complex to implement the others, just let us pick playstyles through edit player. This is possible in pretty much any other sports games career/franchise modes. It's an offline mode where competitive balance isn't a primary motivator, player enjoyment is.

@Hirst93the youth name pools have been broken since 23, and they refuse to act, who's to say they didn't break Playstyle+'s on the YA as well. I think they're trying to kill career mode once and for all and make us go play Evolutions or whatever FUT bs they claim is supposed to draw us CM players over

Thanks for the information.

Can you please tell the % chance of upgrading? It is a lot of hours of playing the game to reach 80 overall with youth players. If its under 10%, its not worth it, it is better to just buy players with playstyle+. 

Other comments says no one ever see an upgrade, so maybe its like 1%?

The new patch didnt helped with this problem as i tested it.

I think something like this should be fair:

80+ - 10%

85+ - 25%

90+ - 50%

(per playstyle, so if a player have 5 playstyles, then he have more chances for a playstyle+)

Is this still the case? It seems that the most recent patch has removed this, as it was bugged with all players receiving chip shot plus rather than a random playstyle plus. Can you confirm this?

Hi Leon, 

Thank you for commenting on my post. I think it would be great for YA players and Regens to achieve a playstyle+ at a certain overall.

However, a few patches ago - players only received the chipshot+ playstyle (for every position) once they reached 80 OVR. 

With the recent patches, it is not impossible for players to receive any playstyle+ (even after reaching 80 OVR). I think it would be a great idea for players to obtain playstyle+ at certain overalls (but us as the players should get to decide which playstyle+ we want our players to have). 

Thanks again,

Luca

They aren't going to fix it, as sad as it is to say, don't buy FC25 next year, it's the only ways these lazy * will even consider fixing an issue outside of Ultimate Team

i have recently had 5 players hot 80+ and they all received chip shot plus that issue isnt fixed yet

@EA_LeonSK please fix this, we still can't get a playstyle+ on our youth players. 

@EA_LeonSK Hello,

Please could you provide a response regarding the bug report that contrary to your earlier comment, every player receives the same playstyle+ once progressing past 80 Overall.

The feature is unfortunately, clearly broken and is preventing the game from functioning like it's intended to.

If you are able to acknowledge this and please let us know when we are able to start a career mode without this game-breaking bug.

Thank you!

TU7 is out tomorrow and the fact Youth players cannot get a PlayStyle+ still hasn't been fixed or addressed; what an absolute embarrassment, why?

I have played manager mode 5 seasons in and not one player has developed playstyle plus, neither in my team or any other team. Will this get fixed?

Hi I have never seen a player develop playstyle plus in Manager career. Surely when a player reaches 90 overall and becomes "one of the worlds best" then they should develop playstyle plus?
