Clarification on Some Career Pro Features

[riesscar]

Greetings,

Forgive my lack of familiarity with FIFA 15, as it has been a while since I played any FIFA renditions ('08 maybe). I have been having a lot of fun with the 'create a pro' mode, but I have some questions that I cannot find answers to online... hopefully someone can clarify things:

1) Do player specialties (not traits) boost any stats? How is it advantageous to be a 'playmaker', for example? Do such labels simply identify a player's strengths, or does it impact the capabilities/performance of the player?

2) Within the context of creating and building a pro, how are attacking and defensive work rates determined? Are these based on how the player performs in-game? I wonder the same about weak foot ability.

3) When a club sets objectives (whether league objectives or monthly objectives), what are the +/- of success or failure in meeting said objectives? I realize that failing to meet too many of them will lead to the club not playing, loaning or transferring you; however, I'm unclear about the effect it has when I fail only one of the short-term objectives. For example, my CAM was given one objective (out of four) that required a 91% pass completion rate over four games... which I failed to achieve. I did complete the other 3, though. Did I miss out on stat boosts or anything, or is it just that missing too many will jeopardize my standing in the club?

If anyone has answers to these inquiries I would be greatly appreciative

Thanks,

Carson

I play a lot of fifa, but am not too experienced in creating a pro and riding his career out whilst tracking his stat development vs on-field performance.

I can tell you for sure that as you gain weak foot ability, you will noticeably see an improvement in the player's weak foot.

My player went from missing sorely(as you see some pros do) and even falling over sometimes to being competent, to actually taking some good shots and passes with his weak foot. It can be very valuable.

Thanks for the response. How did you increase the stat, though? Did it increase by taking more chances or finishing more goals with the weak foot?

That may help, I'm not exactly certain. There are accomplishments you can do with your pro, if you check out the accomplishments page you can see how and where you can earn +1 weak foot ability.
