You gotta put dollar signs behind every idea ;( EA rather hired psychologists to optimize how they make players frustrated to gain more money ^^ and this isn't a joke it really happened :( as every 5 year old could improve this game it's saddly wasted energy at this moment :/ scrapping everything and put out fifa 2006 with these graphics would already be a huge iprovement as well a bringing back manager mode features they deleted in the past ^^ as they don't make money except from fut they only care how to make people depressed to make more money :/ which should be banned by politicians which are stupid or don't care :(
I get where you’re coming from, a lot of people feel that way about the direction of the game, especially compared to older titles.
My goal here isn’t really to argue about monetization or business decisions, but to focus on how Career Mode itself could improve as a system.
Even small, well-designed changes can make a big difference to long-term saves, especially in terms of immersion and replayability.
Curious though, out of the ideas above, is there anything you’d actually want to see, or anything you think wouldn’t work?
Manager skill trees were in fifa 2004 if i remember this right then we also could improve the staff including stadium food corner and other stuff and it was only a bar from level 1 to 10 but it already was a great way to improve finances long term :/
i honestly stopped playing manager mode long ago as soon as finances became an afterthought :( in the modern game if your salary is too big you just gain more money the next season which makes everything pointless :/ i always enjoyed the 4th division runs into bigger leagues and improving the squad with young talents to keep over leagues :/
If i remember we already had player personality traits but, as with most they never were really having any impact, so it got removed later on -_- and i think it was the same with all time top scorer which probably only included current players but i thought that was in for 1-2 years as well.
in the old editions we also could designate different trainings 1-3 times a week and depending on the numbers and if there was a training before a matchday the players had lower stamina in that game. Which was great to actually feel the impact of training to hard or having a rest day more.
I would love if you would actually have a youth team that simulates their games and you could pick players between the teams if the have the age restrictions :/ but this is way to much effort for a mode that doesn't bring money sadly so i'm realistic and probably never buying a EA game again ;/
Most of your things are in football manager so i guess EA also gave up as they lose this competition so they rather focus on there "competitive" gameplay money mode ^^.
So a lot improvements were already IN THE GAME but EA decided against it over the years and focus on the moneymode ultimate team which is the only reason for me to waste money on a ea game. As EA games are a waste of money since some years ;(
I heard 2K is looking for people to make a football game ;) so this might be a place even if the similar problems with greed exist there ;/ but i would love to see more people like you get a chance to implement some ideas :) saddly EA doesn't seem the right spot as it is all on E sports give us 20k to be able to compete in the lottery gameplay focused -_-
