I wonder if there will be an option to turn off getting fired

Re: I wonder if there will be an option to turn off getting fired

that's the thing though, as a Liverpool fan I want to play with and develop the players including young guys like Flanno who need time and games to progress. I want to develop a youth squad and bring them into my first team. I play with Liverpool and actually only add players in the current squad. If Grudic (sp) was in fifa 16 I would have no need for fifa 17, but he's not and i want a realistic squad but also dont want to get canned after one season.

Not wanting to get fired doesnt mean that you want to sign Messi and Ronaldo for liverpool...it ust means you want to play with YOUR team

I totally agree, and that was kind of my point. Whether you want to exploit the transfer market or develop your players, you should have the option to do so unfettered.

Re: I wonder if there will be an option to turn off getting fired

I understand what Redsox is saying, I think he's just missing the point. Having an option to turn off firings wouldn't take any real effort on EA's part.

The main problem people have is that the firings are not realistic. Even if you start with a League 2 team, by the time you reach the Prem your board will be expecting Champs League qualification in your first season. You start with a relegation candidate like Palace or Newcastle and they expect Europa League. Firings are entirely based on achieving board goals and quite literally nothing else.

Also, as people have already pointed out, there is probably a pretty sizable amount of Fifa gamers who simply want to spend all 15 seasons with just their club. They don't care about hopping from club to club or anything else, they just want to build up that specific club, but the game makes it impossible to do that at some point or another.

Simply adding an option to avoid being fired would be very easy to do, and add to a significant amount of people's gaming experience.

I don't get why turning firings off isn't a option, Madden and NHL have it.

I also wonder if you can use the added premier league managers or you are forced creating a generic manager? Knowing EA FIFA you must create a generic manager.

You had to create one in the beta. I couldn't find an option to use an existing.

I'm picking up the game tomorrow and this is one of the first things I'll check out. If no one else has the answer (and/or has done some testing) I'll report back.

Re: I wonder if there will be an option to turn off getting fired

I got the game, i think i didnt saw an option. But the board let u know with the manager rating. I think the 2 year will be interesting. When long term expertation are up. I will simulate 2 years tonight and report back.

No you can not turn it off.

Re: I wonder if there will be an option to turn off getting fired

Alright then I will revert to my original argument. It called MANAGER mode not OWNER mode. So you shouldn't be expecting this option anytime soon. As it's the NOT the intention of the mode.

Awful.

Hopefully there is a way to manipulate the board like you could a few years back.

Actually.....it seems even more insane this year.

I am using Portsmouth. One of the goals I need to reach is youth development (medium desire according to the board.)

Here's the thing. One would think "youth development," would mean "bring players up through the youth system to become members of the full squad."

Only EA could turn a great idea like that into meaning, "you have 2yrs to use your youth squad players to bring the club millions of dollars, by selling them."

Back to the point........I met every other goal I had. Honestly, unless you sign a youth player in July the first week you start a career, you can't sell them until season two, or MAYBE in January of season one.

Yet, my board started hassling me for not selling youth players I COULDN'T EVEN SELL!

I won the league, made the Fa round of 32, sold out my home games. The board said they would give me one more year to prove myself. In otherwords, "coach, if you don't sell all your awesome youth players you want to keep and build a club around, we are going to fire you even if you get promoted again."

My long drawn out point.......not only is the boaRd a bunch of drunk monkies, the hoops you have to jump through are 100x's more silly. And, it will greatly reduce the teams you use in CM. I won't ever use a team with the youth B.S. because I'm not getting canned for refusing to sell off players I worked hard to develop.

Seeing all of this while I'm playing, and seeing stupid it is.....forget firings being on or off, let us choose what we need to do. For instance I could choose domestic success and Continental success as my high, and other aspects as low. Or if I never wanted to be canned, I could choose everything as a low priority.

I don't get why EA does stuff like this. It seriously makes no sense, and in many ways has made CM even more frustrating.

Wow. That is dreadful.

Thanks for the information!
