National Teams for CareerMode

Hi everybody,

I want to talk about the poor list of national teams in career mode. When I think back, we were able to play all the world cup qualifications in past FIFA games and it was so great to develope our own players and bring them after season to the world cup. Now most of our youth players will never play in the national team because they aren`t in the game. I understand the point, that licensing isn`t that easy but why we don`t get generic national teams? That must be possible because in my eyes it`s the same like piemonte Calcio, latium or other generic teams. For me it`s ok when they have a right colored home kit, a good colored away kit and the flagg as emblem on it. I put some pictures within that you can see what I mean. Give us the teams only in career mode, because there isn`t anything realistic and the rosters change individual. What are your thoughts about that?

  • Mmm y prediction is National Teams will disappear entirely from EA FC games especially with no FIFA partnership. I also predict FIFA 2k will have a while host of International sides as will struggle with licensing at first. Then eventually what we have with Serie A will be common in most leagues as both companies compete for licensing etc

  • @DiegoDaCuna I really agree with you. I thought same thing!

    Many Countries were added to Scouting in FC25.
    But I don't know what the point is without a national team.

    But with generic teams we don’t have the license problem. Basically it’s better to have licensed ones but instead of having nothing, I want to have generic ones! Efootball has so many national teams, but they have no mode to use them. That’s so stupid!!! Last year we got the UEFA Euro but we aren’t able to use this one in career mode. Don’t need these stupid extra mode, when it doesn’t come to career mode, it’s useless in my eyes. So why they don’t give us generic national teams? The basic aim must be, that we gamers have a fully fun adventure with our careers and for that we always pay 70€. Then I can expect, that I get more than 29 national teams!

    That's because they had the licence for the Euros and not to use them elsewhere. I'm not gonna pretty to understand it all but I highly doubt EA do it to annoy us, they just can't not without a huge fee and let's be honest. Offline play is a minority these days Ultimate Team is way more popular so that's gonna be the focus. This isn't me disagreeing I'm just a realist and predict they'll be more licensed internationally when 2k realise FIFA

    That online gaming is much more in the focus of the game industry is clear because they can earn more money. But I think, that career mode has a huge fan base too which increased the last years. And let’s be serious, career mode has much more potential than Ultimate team. Use efootball as example. The game is going down because there is no mode for offline players since they delete master league! But let’s go back to national teams. I talk about GENERIC ones. Where is the problem? This has nothing to do with licensing because the real players are in the game because of fifpro.
