It was probably a concept. I've seen a LOT of cool pics from stuff like that, but it's all been fake.

I think it's silly for them to Shell out millions for the champion league. Maybe it's just me, but imagine how many more people they could hire to work on ACTUAL, career modes changes if they didn't pay millions to simply reskin menus, and record more cheese lines of commentary.

I'd rather have a fake champions league for the MLS, and Asian leagues, than a real one that ultimately doesn't make the game better as a whole.

CL investment was to sell more games and I'm sure it will have a huge factor in FUT. In CM I feel it will just be an overlay over the generic one from years pasts.

Unfortunately for me I have fallen victim to the FUT crowd; because of disappointment with franchise modes and the enjoyment of the grind, I'm a FUT guy going forward I think in FIFA. I may or may not do a CM in FIFA 19... I may just for the CL experience but these days I get my franchise fix in Football Manager.

It is a very pretty overlay though, the Presentation is very nice, and the news treats the competition as a big deal unlike in previous iterations, but it's basically just this.

Football Manager has ruined any manager style game for me. I only use CM in FIFA for the Single Player(same for Madden) Nothing even comes close to FM for me.

EA has enough resources to invalidate these kind of arguments. Now, if you would have said Konami, I'd have fully agreed with you.

I suspect that despite Career Mode folks (myself included) are the minority although I still don't believe that the Journey gets more playtime than CM. I love first person modes but it's just so gimmicky to me (The Journey).

The hope is the last to die, although most here know the writing on the wall. The only thing for my cynicism to sparkle is if anyone believes in the p... they fill the media with before publishing !. They are total indemnity with this community or for that matter other similar, as long as it is not about earnings. Fifas CM is like a makeup body that died in 14. Something is rotten in the state of ....disgusting comparison, but the point is good. lol.

It is never going to happen. Because EA long ago decided to be a closed system where openness and transparency are a really bad feature.

Lol. Man I remember people were so quick to side with EA when so many of us were complaining that they were spending all their time on UT. People were saying that career mode had its own "team" of devs. That was never a thing.

Sad to see YouTubers and websites touting new licenses as career mode "features." It doesn't matter what we want, because IGN/etc will be giving this game a 8.5-9.5. They'll do the usual, "this game offers enough minor tweaks and changes to please any fan," type of review that they do every year for every major sports game. After playing the game for a whole 3 hours, of course.
