I see Rookie Konsta Helenious at the upper deck rookie showcase being scanned in on the mini rig. Will all of these rookies that were featured be added in a roster update? Please confirm and please don't tell me we'll wait and see. At least acknowledge that this is an indication of them being added this season or are we waiting a year?
That’s what I was afraid of. They scan players, but don’t release them until it fits their plan—whether that’s waiting to see if a player develops into an 82+ rating or just stringing us along. We already knew Celebrini got scanned at last year’s draft, yet we had to wait an entire year for him, Michkov, Hutson, and others to finally show up instead of being added in a simple roster update. At this point it feels intentional—like they’re trickling out features and face-scanned players just to keep us buying the next year’s copy. If they’re putting in the effort to scan these guys, it’s not laziness from the dev team—it’s EA’s marketing strategy by design.
BigTimeTimJim Yeah iknow…. its acutally pathetic when u look at it, people getting scanned but not getting in, like connor mcmichael got scanned in his rookie showcase, got in this year. As an franchaisemode-guy myself, i really appreciate likeness in lower rating players and rookies…just so frustrating
