I hope stamina still does take a hit. What will be the flipping point of substitutes with no stamina drain. Half the reason for making a change along with tactics.
I will be really disappointed playing Seasons if stamina does not drain. If this is the case then EA have taken this the real wrong way and listening to the wrong crowd. To a point I dont care what they do with FUT as it's never been realistic. But Seasons is the closest thing online to trying to play a football match with someone. Yes, people often play video game patterns and not football but lots also try to emulate football. A tactical battle with someone online is fun. I am all for forcing precision shooting and making it mandatory online. Things like stamina need to be affected otherwise we are going back several years to when people sprinted around all game without consequences.
I get what you are saying, but it's literally just the player you are controlling won't feel like they are affected by fatigue. I would assume they will still decrease in stamina, but it won't be noticeable until you switch off the player. More details are needed for sure, but what it seems like to me is that you could control your defender and run them all the way up field without noticing stamina, then they will be drained as soon as you switch off them and they will not be running back that quickly. If they actually preserve stamina then that's broken and needs addressing.
