More National Teams removed

Why is it what seems like it’s every year,  men’s national teams are being removed? I heard that New Zealand have been removed and they only added Denmark and Poland for women’s national team. 

That’s good that they are adding more national teams in the women side even though two it’s kind of a bit lacklustre but oh well. Anyway back to my original enquiry, why is it sooo hard for EA to add more national team, why can’t they add national even if they are unlicensed like they did it before in previous games. Why is it so difficult now? 

It’s seriously starting to get really frustrating, because I like realism. And it’s really annoying when the international cup is just filled with European countries.

    We do not mind the national teams being unlicensed. It has nothing to do with whether ea has the licenses or not. We’re ok with generic badges and kits, we just want the ability to have international tournaments in the game. It’s really not that hard.

    EA needs to do better and stop giving excuses all of the time, you guys make a lot of money, so you should be able to get the necessary licensing to make the game as real as it can be. I would also love to see examples of teams and leagues that have licenses with others, as a reason why EA cannot reach an agreement with them.

    Players spend money on this game, it is up to EA to make the game super real and interesting, especially in career mode.

  • So does any one know what are the national teams in FC 26 or not I really want to know and especially Brazil and will the World Cup be included in FC 26 or we need to wait to FC 27

    Could you elaborate or give an example because that statement does not make sense.

    Not everything is about money ZizziZizou​. Many of the teams and leagues that are not part of the game have licenses with others.

    I'm sorry but that's not an excuse, EA literally earn billions of dollars of FUT alone, they're a multi-billion dollar company that makes record profits every year, the fact that EA have not invested $$$ into bringing in more licensed national teams is ludicrous, they have the resources and finances to do so, they just don't care.

    Also the NTs don't have to be fully licensed, most people wouldn't mind generic kits and flags, we just want more national teams for a more realistic experience in Career Mode, a FOOTBALL game not having the Brazil National Team is genuinely pathetic. 

  • Hi EA_Darko​, I see if that’s the case,  then what I’m understanding is that it’s the individuals and or teams that’s are either being too difficult with you guys and asking unrealistic amount of money when it comes to negotiating license. Which sucks and it’s very frustrating. 

    Thank you

    Hey DrRichOldman00​ what players and teams are included in game comes down to numerous factors with licensing being a major one. 

    In many cases it simply is not possible for the team to include some teams due to the license not being available.
