Feedback: Bring Opponent Lineup to Next-Gen Loading Screens
Issue / Suggestion Overview:
On current-gen platforms (PS5 / Xbox Series X|S), players are greeted with vast, empty black screens during match loading phases. Meanwhile, legacy platforms like PS4 successfully utilize this exact loading window to display the opponent's starting lineup, formation, and tactical setup. Restoring this feature on next-gen hardware would eliminate dead space and bring back a much-needed tactical overview before matches begin.

Core Benefits & Community Impact:
- Elimination of Dead Visual Space: Utilizing the blank loading screen turns an empty waiting period into a useful tactical preview window.
- Tactical Awareness: Allowing players to inspect the opponent's formation, chemistry, and player positioning prior to kickoff enhances competitive preparation.
- Feature Parity: Bringing back a beloved legacy feature that current-gen players have been missing for years.
Required Adjustment:
We strongly request the development team to optimize the next-gen loading interface by rendering the opponent's tactical formation and squad layout during match loading screens, mirroring the successful implementation seen on PS4 hardware.
