Online Friendlies Lacks Key Features and Customization Options
Online Friendlies needs major improvements. It feels like a stripped-down mode missing the basics.
Match time is random, and we can’t select day/night, weather, or kickoff time. This kills immersion for things like evening EPL derbies or Champions League nights.
EPL, UEFA, and other official broadcast visuals don’t show up, even when using licensed teams and stadiums. Matches feel flat and generic.
We also can’t choose our own stadium, which removes realism.
Retro jerseys unlocked in Ultimate Team can’t be used in Online Friendlies or single-player modes. Why are they locked outside of FUT?
There’s no way to create online tournaments with friends — something that would be great for weekend leagues or friendly competitions.
We also can’t play 2v2 online with four players on their own devices. Why isn’t this supported?
I know simple Kick-Off has these settings, but all my friends live far away. Online Friendlies is the only way we can play together, and right now it’s missing core features.
Please consider improving this mode — it has so much potential for casual but authentic football fun.
