rewriting of the Africa Cup of Nations project
Please excuse me if this document is not yet perfectly written. As a native French speaker, drafting a highly detailed project in English represents a challenge for me, but I have tried to explain each idea as clearly and precisely as possible. I would like to present an idea for a new game mode in EA SPORTS FC 27: a complete Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) experience. The goal is to create a mode similar to the FIFA World Cup mode featured in FIFA 23, with a dedicated main menu, animations, an official broadcast atmosphere, licensed content, and a unique tournament experience. The AFCON is one of the biggest football competitions in the world, featuring passionate supporters, historic teams, and a very special atmosphere. This mode would allow players to experience the competition in a realistic and immersive way. Main Menu Design The AFCON mode menu should take inspiration from the FIFA World Cup mode menu in FIFA 23. It should include: A dedicated AFCON backdrop highlighting African stadiums, supporters, flags, and players. Official AFCON colors and visual identity. A cinematic intro sequence upon launching the mode. African music and stadium audio atmospheres. Dynamic animations showing players celebrating, fans waving flags, and fireworks. Cinematic Introduction Sequence Concept: When the player accesses the AFCON mode, an animated sequence begins: An initial black screen, followed by the map of Africa appearing alongside a wordless track featuring African rhythms. The 3 host countries—Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania—start glowing in sky blue. The camera zooms down into Uganda, entering a stadium to showcase an iconic goal from AFCON history. The camera repeats this dynamic sequence for Kenya and Tanzania. Finally, the camera zooms back up into the sky where the official logo appears, transitioning smoothly into the main menu. Main Menu Options Play Tournament: A complete AFCON tournament experience. Players can: Select their national team. Play through the group stage. Manage tactics and squad line-ups. Reach the knockout stages. Play the final and lift the trophy. AFCON Kick-Off: A quick-play mode allowing players to set up any AFCON fixture. Examples: Algeria vs. Egypt, Morocco vs. Senegal, Nigeria vs. Ivory Coast, etc. Before starting the match, players should also have the option to choose the starting stage: Group Stage, Round of 32, Round of 16, Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals, or Final. AFCON History: A mode dedicated to replaying historic matches and memorable moments from previous AFCON tournaments. Match Presentation & Broadcast The match presentation must reflect the authentic atmosphere of a real AFCON tournament. Before each match: National anthems. Team line-ups display. Flag displays. Stadium atmosphere and fan chants. Tournament-specific commentary. During matches: Official AFCON color overlay package. Official tournament scoreboard. Realistic goal celebrations. Authentic African stadium ambience. Animations & Cinematics Key Animations: Opening Ceremony: A spectacular opening ceremony featuring dancers, fireworks, fan sections, and the presentation of the trophy. Trophy Celebration: After winning the tournament, players lift the AFCON trophy accompanied by confetti showers, fan celebrations, and team photo sessions. Qualification Moments: When a team qualifies for the next round, dedicated player celebrations, crowd reactions, and custom AFCON broadcast graphics trigger. Required Licensing To guarantee total realism, EA SPORTS would require all necessary official licenses: CAF (Confederation of African Football) license. Official Africa Cup of Nations tournament license. National team licenses. Player likeness & name licenses. Stadium licenses (where feasible). Official tournament visual identity, logos, and trophy design. The objective is to achieve the same level of authenticity as the FIFA World Cup mode in FIFA 23. Atmosphere & Immersion The AFCON possesses a unique identity; therefore, the game should incorporate: Authentic African fan models and animations. Traditional drums and chants. Omnipresent national flags and stadium decorations. Context-aware commentary. Cultural elements representing the participating nations. Every single match should deliver the authentic atmosphere of a true AFCON clash. Final Objective The ultimate goal is to create the most realistic Africa Cup of Nations experience ever seen in a football video game. An AFCON mode inspired by the FIFA 23 World Cup mode would bring a brand-new experience to EA SPORTS FC 27 and allow millions of football fans around the world to celebrate one of the greatest international tournaments. Please, I really insist, many African fans are asking for an Africa Cup of Nations theme to be included in at least one FIFA game. Please try to release it for FC 28. Thank you very much.I really insist—it's my dream. It would make me play the game even more; I’d be absolutely overjoyed. I’d leave nothing but 5-star reviews, I’d be so happy.International duty on player career mode
Hi guys, I hope EA sports sees this because this is an issue I've seen with many editions of their game, going back to the 2019 one to today's game. How come when you're playing career mode with a player, you're NEVER called up for international duty? I've played with the same player in FIFA 22 and in EA FC 24: they're both one the best in the world and they're both Italian. Tell me why, in both games, they only got called up ONCE in three seasons? And not even for a big tournament? I feel like that takes away from the game's quality, but it doesn't surprise me as EA has constantly prioritised Ultimate Team mode to the others. I really hope they at least attempt to fix it.
This game is terrible
I’ve been playing fifa since 2015 and honestly ever since i started playing ultimate team in 2018 i’ve never pulled such a crazy card. Going against players who have all the new crazy promos make me wonder if i really have to spend money. I grind and grind just for me to get fodders. The amount of times i’ve gotten scored on just because the game supposedly makes the most dumbest plays for my opponent to get a free goal. recently i’ve never been more stressed and unhappy with fifa. I just don’t get what i have to do to get this kind of pack luck.Online Football Player Life Career Mode for FIFA 26
My idea for FIFA 26 is a new online career mode where the player creates a single footballer and becomes part of a shared online football world. Every team is fully made up of footballers created and controlled by real players. Players can sign contracts, earn money, buy houses and cars, travel to the stadium with their own vehicle, and manage their personal life outside the stadium. The mode includes training sessions, realistic matches, teams, and managers, closely reflecting real-life football. This mode is designed to keep players engaged for longer periods of time and to make them feel as close as possible to the real football world. All gameplay mechanics and details are already fully developed by me, and if interested, I am ready to present and explain them in detail through direct communication.
