Birth Year: Create-a-Player

Others have surfaced this, but 2005 is seriously the latest birth year for a create a player in FC27 again?? I couldn’t believe it when I went into the game for early access. Part of why I pre-ordered was because I was very excited for the new Career mode features and changes, and the belief I’d be able to create prospects again because no way EA doesn’t change it this year now that the youngest age is 20/21 right? Wrong. 

A good portion of the fanbase has asked for this to be addressed in recent years, and nothing has happened. A lot of us like to create our own youth prospects, and when the youngest you can make them is 20/21 at the start of a season, takes all the fun of development and progression out. 

Maybe I’m the idiot for thinking it would actually be addressed. But it’s just extremely disappointing that EA isn’t allowing its player base to play the game how they want; all over a switch they could flip to change the birth year range. 

Just please let us create 16-17 year old prospects that we can loan, develop, etc.
