Well, considering that controlling a single player in FIFA is one of the dullest experiences in video games, I guess it's good that they are trying to improve that mode. Only way to really make a difference would be to significantly change the gameplay, which they have no interest in doing.

My hope would be a new graphics engine, finally moving on from last gen, and to a lesser extent, more leagues with every stadium licensed. But if I was willing to bet, its probably going to be something about ultimate team. The main focus, unfortunately, of every single EA Sports game.

Yup. Or some other feature to crack down on coin traders. Meanwhile they'll continue to promote FIFA points, and put out 100k coin packs that would take playing 200 matches to afford without breaking out the credit card like a chump.

I wish I could understand what the appeal of Ultimate Team is. I get that it's a revenue generator for EA, but what does the player get out if it?

I don't personally play it, but I think the appeal to some is:

1. Fun collecting players, kinda like collecting sports cards
2. Building a team
3. Kinda like fantasy sports but you actually play the games
4. Competing online
5. People get addicted to the grind of "If I just win one more match, I'll have enough coins (or whatever the currency is) to buy ______"

The only time I've really enjoyed modes like Ultimate Team is in the early levels when you play with lower-rated players because it helps me find some diamonds in the rough and also is a good test of player skill IMO.

I enjoy FUT mainly for the card collecting and team building aspects, but at the same time I don't play it competitively, have never spent a dime on it and wouldn't miss it a bit if it disappeared.

Revamped FUT! Career mode stays the same but with a few tweaks. That is what I expect to hear, BAH!!!!!!!
