FIFA 17 The Journey (Story Mode) Trailer

Re: FIFA 17 The Journey (Story Mode) Trailer

When I first seen this trailer I couldn't have been more excited. But once you realize you have to be the same custom player as every single person who plays the game, it kind of ruins it.

I hated the 2k16 story, but I can't see this being any worse. My whole thing is I would rather be myself or a REAL young hotshot like Rashford or Martial.

I know I will end up creating a player career with a real pro, so I can only hope that mode has not been ignored

I am all for it, if they have made significant improvements to the career mode that is already there.

I have a feeling they have made improvements to the career mode, will it be what everyone wants, no, but I do believe it got some love this year.

Looks really cool, I'm definitely intrigued.

To those saying this will fail, you couldn't be more wrong. NBA 2K has been doing this for a few years and it's gone over very well and many people enjoy it, this is also the first year EA is doing something like this.

If it's not for you that's cool, but stop bashing it before you even play it or know more than just a 2 minute video. I'd rather see some constructive negative comments rather than "who asked for this? or this will fail" type stuff. The FIFA playing community isn't just limited to OS, I'm sure there is definitely a player base that asked for this or has been wanting something similar.

Or the just fix career mode stuff. Which they did...and your commentating in a thread talking about improved career mode.

RttS is nothing like this. It is exatly like the Be a Pro mode already in the game. This is like the NBA 2k mode and the old Sony basketball game before it.

Not my cup of tea, but I don't guess another mode hurts. It seems like they've still done lots to improve the action on the pitch, and most reviews on the new engine seem to be positive.

I guess time will tell, it sucks that the modes I care least about seem to be the most popular.

The "fix career mode" comments are referring to the manager career mode, not the player career mode. And those comments are fair, because the manager career mode hasn't received significant improvements in years. I'm sure everyone knows this thread is about the player career mode, considering the contents of the thread title and OP.

That being said, there's still plenty of time for manager career mode improvements to be announced. Fingers crossed. And I'm sure I'll give this new game mode a shot, it clearly looks better than the usual player career.

Exactly. Why not add online career mode etc. I mean they did it for Madden. Also did they not see how awful this story mode with a set player did when 2k did it this year? It was terrible.

Yeah, this. I hated the storyline, and I don't like the "Freq" nickname, but once you get into year 2 of the mode, it's great.

This seems like it'll be a cool mode, and I'm glad people are going to enjoy it, but I'm not a fan of being locked into a character's appearance and name. At least a player had the ability to tailor Freq's appearance, name and game to their own in 2k.

As long as there are gameplay improvements, I could care less about Manager Mode. It's never going to be a detailed, in depth mode ever with this franchise. That's what Football Manager is for.

Re: FIFA 17 The Journey (Story Mode) Trailer

this mode could be cool with some depth....and if you can be in the fifa selection of the year or win the ballon d'or in the final stages of your career. maybe some rivality with an other player in your team...hmm lots of possibilitys.

agree, the character should be changeable.

Really awkward they didn't listen to all complaints about nba 2k16 with story mode, it seems this will have exact same flaws

You don't know that at all, from what I saw it didn't seem anywhere near as scripted as 2K.

Even though there were complaints with 2K16's cheesy scripted story, a lot of people liked it.

It's the first year they are doing this, I'm sure it will improve over time as well.

The more I've thought about this the more I've come around to it. It will be nice to have something new in a soccer/football game. And its probably just a one season story thing anyways. So it wont take long. Its just a nice little distraction from the normal game play.

Plus they seem to be putting movie level production into this. Like they tried to do with that Fight Night story mode thing they did a few years back. Which was actually pretty good. So I'll hold judgment until I play it.

Re: FIFA 17 The Journey (Story Mode) Trailer

i liked the story about figh night's andre bishop sitting in jail etc. but i really didn't like that scripted stuff at all, especially the last fight against frost, was pure frustration and didn't make fun at all.

that said, i wished they had a real soccer player instead of that alex hunter, a young rooney starting his career f.e.
