New Player Pick Concept – Risk & Reward Style

Subject: New Player Pick Concept for FUT – Risk & Reward Style

Hi EA Team,

I’d like to share a new idea for a Player Pick mechanic in Ultimate Team that combines strategic choice with exciting risk-reward gameplay.

Here's how it would work:

- A new type of Player Pick contains 3 hidden choices.
- Instead of showing the full player cards, only the player faces are shown (e.g. Messi, Ronaldo, etc.) – not the versions or stats.
- One of the picks is marked with a "?" icon, which guarantees a player rated 90+.
- The other two (e.g. Messi and Ronaldo) could be any version – Gold, TOTW, TOTS, etc.
- The user can only select and reveal one of them.
- Once selected, the version of that player is revealed (for example, Messi Gold or Messi TOTY).
- After selecting and seeing that version, the other two are locked forever.
- At the end, the game shows what the user could have gotten if they picked another option – just to make it exciting and a bit emotional!

I believe this would add a thrilling psychological layer to FUT, and create awesome moments for content creators and players alike.

Thanks for considering it!

  • I am surprised ea hasn’t added something like this. Streamers have been hiding their picks with slow reveals for years. Even the pro events they do those commercial breaks that have you vote who the player is on screen by hiding stats.

    EA! Please do not do this! 

    No disrespect, but this game is rated E for Everyone, and should remain that way. It's already hard enough to get the players you want right now, and adding an 'emotional' element to it would almost certainly have a negative impact on lots of people. 

    All the best to you!
