We want Alex hunter (the journey) back

Player Career should literally be The Journey but with your Created Player!!

They've been sat on various assets (cut-scenes etc) from The Journey for over 7 years now!! It's crazy how far behind Player Career is!!

It needs its own Dev team, time & resources..

While story modes like Alex Hunter’s were a breath of fresh air, the real tragedy is how neglected Player Career Mode has become. Year after year, we get surface level tweaks and flashy buzzwords, but under the hood? It’s the same stale, underdeveloped mess. No meaningful progression systems, no dynamic storylines, no real agency. Just a glorified stat tracker with cutscenes that feel like they were stitched together in a weekend.

And let’s talk about the dev team responsible for this mode. Whoever’s in charge clearly doesn’t understand what makes career mode compelling. Either they’re out of touch, under resourced, or just plain lazy. It’s honestly embarrassing how little effort goes into a mode that should be a flagship experience. Compare it to what 2K does with MyCareer or even older FIFA iterations it’s night and day.

EA needs a serious overhaul in personnel. Fresh minds, actual football fans, and people who care about immersive gameplay not just monetisation. Right now, it feels like the team is phoning it in, and the community deserves better than this joke of a development cycle.

If EA wants to win back trust, they need to stop recycling features and start rebuilding Career Mode from the ground up. Until then, it’s just empty promises and wasted potential.

Exactly, and even if they don't bring Alex Hunter back they could use a similar story line for your created player and new cutscenes so it doesn't feel like FC 25 all over again. 

Real, this is why NBA 2K dominates in terms of: realism, customization, and storyline. I really hope these Devs wake up and stop fixating so much on UT.

It's so ridiculous, you can't even request a transfer/loan in January anymore

"keep up the great work"???.......are you playing a different game???, lol

But yeah they should bring something like that back , but this crew have literally zero creativity or ideas whatse so it won't happen.
