Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

Great to see the Coventry mode finally up and running! Also, very nice with the bump up to Legendary it should keep you on your toes and interested, Martial and Bigirimana are great signings. Hopefully they do well and you can even bring them in permanently.

Thanks. I am going to try and bring those in, and Razak on a permanent deal. McGeouch will also be approached to sign permanently at the end of the season. Bigirimana actually was a Coventry youth academy product! The bump to legendary was for exactly that reason. After dominating opposition in this career and in my Liverpool one, I felt it was time for change.

You son of a... Hahaha jk jk well played! You took it all the way to the final 2 minutes an outstanding comeback. Glad to see you got the Coventry career up and running. Good luck!

Thanks. That's the way I play. Never give up. Even when I'm 3 or 4 nil up, I still go for more. Hope you liked your cameo in my career haha.

Haha definitely did. I had been planning on doing the same thing but the people that had a career in England stopped posting, and well you were in the prem with Liverpool long ways away from me in League 1. Funny thing is, I have Liverpool up next in the Capital One Cup and my next league game is against Coventry. Looking forward to our match! Haha

We won't let our guard down in the final two minutes this time around

Thoughts

Another excellent month, but one thing scarred it. The end of the streak, the winning streak of brilliance. Legendary hasn't really affected this career because of the quality of my side.

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

HEY guys. Hope you get to answer this one quickly.

I'm thinking of making another Career Mode, preferably Serie A(but Bundesliga could be considered). Looking at Roma, Fiorentina, AC Milan at the moment. (Leverkusen in the background also)

I'd like a team with some key players that the roster could be shaken up. As well as a good enough budget.

Much appreciate replies, thanks!

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

Back story
Soo after all the transfer dramas and not knowing what to do I've settled with a career mode with Southampton, but I'm doing it like a life with Southampton after lovren, shaw, Lallana and lambert as they will all probably leave/have left in this transfer window,
I went simming the first season just to get to the second season to sell them just like real life, I disabled the first summer transfer window and didn't buy anyone other than martial due to me selling lambert for like 6-7 mill in January ( I was going to get rid of him anyways so thought id take that much for the 31 year old) backstory finished




Right I finished in 12 position after simming all games and kept the job with Southampton calling it a super season. I am now in the second season summer transfer window and I am now selling all of those stated above and will be looking for suitable replacements. At the moment I am thinking okore and the CB from Nantes whose name escapes me, or someone like caulker ( I'm still looking ) but yeah I will report back hopefully with some art and a better layout to report with.
PS: hope yous can take an interest in my career mode as I haven't seen one like this some with Southampton.

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

OK, so I've decided to scratch the Yeovil idea. I just hate the whole career mode. It bores me soooo much. I'm going to have a go a few other ideas I've had and probably post the one I enjoy. Sorry for the wait.

In Italy I like Roma, since historically they're a great club but the spotlight is usually on Juve, Milan and Inter. Plus they have Totti!

On the other hand, Milan has been disappointing in recent times. They have a great squad but they don't achieve what is expected from them. They're goalkeepers are aging and will need to be replaced, Kaka is great but is also getting on the older side. So, I think I would go with Milan.

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

Any way to make the gameplay actually fun?
It looks like it's the same match over and over.

A idea about a team to start would be good too.
Milan is interesting.

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

I'm currently loving my career with Wimbledon, however I already have my backup options in case I end up getting bored here.

Bradford City: Really like the kits and have pretty good players for League 1.

Leeds United: This is the one I'm leaning towards the most. My longest career mode ever was with them (FIFA 13) but I only made it to the end of my 3rd season before I accidentally deleted it. I was almost in shock when I noticed I had just deleted it. I was waiting for a 15 year old Scottish defensive minded player who had really high potential and his overall was already in the 70s at just 15! I'm pretty sure he was already playing for Scotland even though I hadn't promoted him yet. Unfortunately, I was never able to see him in action so I would like to continue that. Their kits look better than last years so that's another plus. Some of the players that were vital in that career are unfortunately no longer in the game (Iker Guarrotxena and Fillipo Boniperti for example) but Conor Coady is still in the game and he was a very important player for me. It should even be easier to sign him now since in the game he's with Sheffield now instead of Liverpool. I would love to take this team again.

In the meantime, I'm still very much enjoying Wimbledon. I received an attractive offer from Wales but I think I'm gonna reject it. Managing international teams makes the season longer because of the extra games. If I was to accept it, I would only stay for the duration of my contract. Since you can't scout youth in Wales, there's really no way to think long term with them. What do you guys think?

Maybe it's time to up the difficulty? I only use sliders to decrease injuries for both teams and play on world class, but I don't feel like every match is the same at all.

Re: How's Your FIFA 14 Career Mode Going?

Oh BTW I got a budget of 50 million pounds in the second season thanks to the wages trick and me not spending anything in the first season that's how I was able to afford all those players
Did a few swaps as well so if any Milan players are missing that I didn't talk about they were in a swap deal (Robinho was in the Veratti one and Kaka in a straight swap for Insigne that's all I can remember)
