    FIFA 18 EA Play Questions/Requests Thread

    Well...hello there...

    I will be attending EA Play this weekend on behalf of Operation Sports. BEFORE WE START - I will NOT be capturing off screen gameplay. I believe it is a terrible representation of gaming in general and shows all games in a horrid light.

    WITH THAT BEING SAID I'm asking you, the OS user, what you would like to know from this conference that you may not see because you are not there. I will have conversations with any and all of the devs so fire away and I will try to answer what I can.

    Also make sure to follow my Twitter (www.twitter.com/MillenniumOS) and the official Operation Sports Twitter (www.twitter.com/OperationSports) as I will be posting from both. I have also been told I will be able to stream live from the event so make sure you are following the official Operation Sports Twitch (www.twitch.tv/OperationSports) as it may be live during the weekend with more information.

    Please keep in mind that I am an admitted amateur FIFA player so be specific if you are looking for something.

    Obviously, I think the biggest question I'd have would be what have they done to Career Mode, this year. I'd also like to know if we can edit/create players to be a plain old Central Midfielder instead of only being able to make them CAM or CDM.

      I'm looking for any news on the possibility of the return of Creation Centre, which was by far my favorite aspect of FIFA. CC let you design all kinds of custom teams/kits/leagues/tournaments via a web app then use those features in-game. It was brilliant, but it has not made an appearance since last-gen. (Last I heard, EA stated that CC was too unwieldy for current-gen but I'm pretty sure NBA 2K's creation suite has debunked that theory.)

      I spoke to an EA rep at E3 last year, he didn't seem to know what Creation Centre even was. This does not give me high hopes but it would be nice to know anyway.

      Thanks Mill!

        I am Costa Rican and I use to love playing as Costa Rica in FIFA. It has not been in the national teams list in years now. I want to know why it was removed, what it takes to be considered to be included as a national team, and if they will be in this year or not.

        Keylor Navas has won back to back Champions League trophies as the starting GK for Real Madrid as a Costa Rican, and they have plenty of other top tier league players, and Costa Rica made an impressive run in the last World Cup but still have yet to be included. I am curious as to how they choose National Teams to be included in game.

        I hope this question is appropriate and not too far-fetched for you to include on your list of questions to ask the devs. Thanks Mill!

          As much info as you can get about Manager Mode.
          Will tournament winnings carry over to the following season? (So frustrating that this still isn't in the game)
          Any stat tracking from season to season in manager mode?
          Can you edit ratings/rosters while in manager mode?
          Can you apply for any job from any team rather than just the ones that pop up?
          Are there more training sessions available per week?
          Will there be scouted players (through the academy) that have sprint speed ratings that are actually realistic and not always 73 and below?
          Will there be a beta?
          Will there be a connected career mode (similar to Madden with online leagues)?

              One major question....will they be creating different modes for sim, arcade, and competitive like madden 18? This would go a long way to ameliorate the differences between sim gamers and FUT.

                I only care about one thing, and that is ball size. Please make sure they are aware how small the ball was in 17, and address it.

                  For me, they need to concentrate on Career Mode over all other modes this year, it's been ignored mostly for years now. I'd like to see simming made more interactive such as allowing substitutions and tactics to be made during games (as is done in PES), training too (more specialised training: weak foot, upper body strength, heading etc. being made available).

                  Cosmetic improvements too would be nice, including press conferences, interviews etc. (they did it this year in the Journey so they can easily port it over surely?)

                  And like Matt10 said above - MAKE THE BLOODY BALL BIGGER!!

                    Pretty big shame Costa Rica hasn't been an option in however many years because they're arguably the strongest CONCACAF team right now. I'm hoping they're in FIFA 18, but if not, I'm sure we'll at least get to use them if they make the usual World Cup game in 2018.

                    Speaking of CONCACAF, I'd like to know if any improvements have been made to Career Mode in regards to MLS. I know it's not a top-five league, but it's borderline top 10 these days. I'd also like to know if any USL teams are in or are in the plans for future releases.

                      I'd like to know if they've forgotten that manual controls exist. This past year, maybe last two, it sure seems like they forgot it's part of the game, and it's gotten worse.

                        *Improvements to the transfer market (more loans, transfers. overall better transfers for team needs)

                        *Global transfer network scouting improvements (auto scouting)

                        *Youth team scouting improvements

                        *League patches changing for promoted or relegated teams.

                        *Has Anfield's stand been updated

                          Will there finally be an online league capability? One where a few friends can play among the sane universe much like the NCAA football online league.

                            Any and everything about tactics. Have they widened the gap in playstyles? Do the player instructions actually matter. Does a solo striker want to poach instead of drop into MF so much.. are there bodies in the box in attack.

                            Thank you sir
