Did they not do anything for past events? I really think they should as the World Cup is every four years, would be awesome to have some new content based off that.
Honestly, I doubt we would really see anything for a major sporting event. They do not have a history of creating and distributing things for events other than mostly nationally recognized holidays such as Easter and Christmas. However, this is EA we are talking about, who knows what they are thinking. They did release the Duff Racer for a small Nascar tie in, but that was two years ago.
I hate football (or soccer if you're in the US) but any sort of update would be welcomed by me! it's always great to get new things and new quests!
I think when someone brought up the possibility of the World Cup in the past though, people said it probably wouldn't happen because of sponsorship reasons, or the channel the World Cup is broadcast on, Something like that... :?

Two Olympic Games (London 2012, Sochi 2014) went by with no in game mention, events, or items.
It would be cool, but I don't think anything will happen.
I doubt they will. They did a little bit for the Super Bowl, but that's a huge event in the US. World Cup isn't. If TSTO has a significant player base outside the US, they should probably consider doing it.
It would be awesome, if they brought the Springfield Soccer Stadium in to the game.
That's a pretty good idea! I would love to see some sporting equipment/events in the game whether it is world cup related or not as effectively it would definitely make the game more realistic! Fantastic idea though
Anything they do would have to be unbranded as far as "World Cup" is concerned. As has been mentioned every time this comes up, EA would have to license the rights for this specific game and follow the rules set down by the folks who own the copyrights and trademarks associated with that event. It is the same reason we won't see the Olympics or any other trademarked event in the game. (Rights obtained for the television show are entirely separate from the game.)
I love football, so I'd be happy with loads. I hope we get something, even some flags for different nations- I simply want to be able to show my nationality.
I want homers ref outfit and the Springfield football stadium I think. IMO it would be great

One word answers are extremely rude IMO.
To OP, that would be a great idea!!
Well, now I know how you treat people anyway! :-\
Yes, I think it's a great idea and they should definitely consider the concept. :-D

It would contribute nothing.
If they do something then it literally cannot contribute nothing.
