EA's cheat sheet to a better Career Mode

Re: EA's cheat sheet to a better Career Mode

I've also been playing FIFA over the last years (mostly offline - career mode - and because Konami stopped producing quality football games after PES 6) but I think if they dont do a big overhaul in FIFA 16 I'm finally done with it.

All the things you pointed out which would make a great career mode are things we wished for so long now and EA is doing **** about.

If they'd just have a look at Nba 2k's career mode and would just implement half of the features with half the effort, FIFA's career mode would be sooo much better.

But I've given up hope, seems like gaming nowadays is all about modes like UT where you first pay for the game and then pay to get better in game and it's all about competition.

I'd pay 100$ for an offline FIFA if they'd just put some heart in it.

But what am I complaining about...Seems like I have to stick with NBA 2k, they actually do care about their customers whilst making profit and making a game they love.

With EA I got the feeling its all about profit.

Re: EA's cheat sheet to a better Career Mode

Starting back up as a league 2 team, one thing that is driving me nuts is the search options in the transfer network. I get that we can't search by OVR as it is hidden. No problem. But why can I not filter by contract demand? I don't need to see players who want 10k salary when I am looking for a high 50s OVR player who wants 1000 or 1250 at most. Add in a quick filter to search by salary demand and i could easily filter out a ton of players i'd never want to view.

Re: EA's cheat sheet to a better Career Mode

I agree with this.


But can we please keep in mind that FIFA has to simulate and keep track of stats for roughly 15 leagues and over 3000 players. NBA, NHL and the rest of the major North American sports games don't have anywhere close to that amount of players/teams/leagues/trophies/prospects to keep track of. Even with the extra horsepower of next-gen consoles, that is still a lot of pressure to put on the CPU during simulations.

I bet 2K could do it.
