Online Career Mode Should Be Added to EA FC (Detailed Suggestion)

Dear EA Sports Team,

I’m a PlayStation 5 user and a longtime fan of the FIFA series—I've played every game from FIFA 18 to FC 25. But to be honest, the spirit of FIFA feels like it's fading. Ultimate Team has become a game mode purely focused on opening packs and spending money. It’s the same game every year with just new cards, and for real football lovers like myself, it gets boring.

What we really want is clear: an Online Career Mode.

I’m talking about:
- Players choosing a team and managing it in real-time
- Competing in a league with other real online users
- No more AI matches—only head-to-head against real people
- Stadium upgrades based on club success and earnings
- The ability to build training grounds, medical centers, and other facilities
- Fanbase growing with your club’s performance
- Optional cosmetics like custom kits, club logos, and manager outfits that could be monetized

This kind of mode would take FIFA to the next level. Personally, I would jump straight in with Newcastle United, start from the bottom, and fight my way to Premier League and Champions League glory. That’s the kind of meaningful, competitive, and rewarding football experience we're missing.

If you still want to make money, no problem—include cosmetic packs, custom visuals, etc. But continuing to release the same game year after year focused only on Ultimate Team is not what your loyal players deserve.

We’re not just chasing goals—we’re chasing legacy, passion, and real football strategy. And only you can bring that to life.

    Unfortunately FIFA/FC is not open to such innovations. The reason why it is not open to innovations is the fear of losing the income it has earned from FUT. However, if it were open to such innovations and implemented them, it would attract more people. Also, since there is no football game that can compete with it, they are at ease.

    I have not been into fifa for about a decade now. I remember fondly how addictive thus game was. But I moved on as gaming moved on to an online experience. Something I feel fifa didn't give me. Fut and pro clubs tried to fill that need but it didn't take long until I got bored of it. Football and fifa for me is about authentically representing real football n players. Pro clubs got rid of real teams and players - so that was a bore for me. Fut was just you 1vs1 others online, something that seasons has anyways. I didn't see the buzz of fut and paying for cards, made no sense to me. This slowly killed the game off, like who is gonna play fifa when games like fortnite warzone rainbow six siege was playable. All these games had online playability WITH friends.  Fifa NEEDS an online career mode to save it!

    What you have suggested is the harder version of CM to accomplish online. Whether your idea is even viable is another question. But I suggest the easier version that they can create. Just give us normal career mode vs Ai - but allow as many friends to play with you controlling one club. It's the easiest way to implement an online career mode. 

    I'd buy a whole separate fifa game solely based on career mode. I'm sure I'm not the only one either
