The additional teams don't really provide anything. You can't use them in MM. I assume that you won't be able to use them in a 'co-ed' (if you will?) tournament? The players aren't available in FUT.

I just don't see the point.

Again, there's no hidden agenda here attacking women. Like I said in a previous post--it'd be like Madden allocating resources to add SOME Canadian teams for exhibition mode ONLY. Neat feature, but no real point.

Another point, why not add more mens international teams first? Ones that can actually be used in CM? Not saying that that isn't the plan anyway, but I would deem that to be more 'valuable' (at least from a replay standpoint), than adding some 'fun' teams for ex. mode only.

Just my .02

You can likely use the women's team in tournament mode against other women's teams. Even if you cant, many people will still use them in play now mode and have a ball with them.

Just because a featured doesnt interest you doesnt mean its useless. For example, I have no interest in FUT. Zero. But I understand that other people love that feature so you dont hear me saying "Why is FIFA focusing so many resources on FUT when there are bugs and glitches in the game."

Many people will check out FIFA 16 just because of the women's teams so I dont begrudge them for adding the teams. I'd guess that more people will play with the women teams than any of the missing international teams like Ghana, Bosnia or Algeria.

My friends and I play tons of exhibition games against each other at college, and I'm looking forward to torching them with Sydney Leroux. And one of my friends is stoked to have the French team so he can play as his crush, Laure Boulleau. Plenty of guys are loving this inclusion too.

With female character models are now in the game I expect the PC modders will have a field day. Wouldn't surprise me if many more international women's teams are added to the game through modding.

I think it would be cool to have some historical women's world cup champions teams in the game. That would probably get a few plays from my group of friends.

EA will probably add them in FIFA 17 or FIFA 18, if the modding community doesn't add them.

If we're able to create a girl in this years installment, mine is going to be named Jenna-Talia

My daughters are very excited about the inclusion of women's teams and female players in the game. I hope there's an option for them to create a female player, and there's a full tournament mode for the twelve teams.

As a female gamer I love this. Yet, as a female gamer I hate this.

So, I have to show support and buy the game. To then be frustrated that after I make offline tournaments and do that for a while it is back to CM and I can not use any of the women players.

Oh, I can edit Luke Shaw make him a pacey striker on Real Madrid and place them in the BPL. But put Alex Morgan on a low level club in Europe, I think not, because she is a girl.

IDK... I am going to buy the game but the limited use in offline modes is almost heartbreaking and I seriously am disapointed. Basically finally I get a female player model but since she is a girl I can't use her in any mode with longevity.

Never been so excited about something that also makes me want to cry.

So, I can admitt when I am wrong...

EA did an amazing job in recreating the women's game. I now get why women can not play men or on men's teams. It is literally a different game. A brilliant amazing but different game.

The women's teams play so well and are so much fun that I have probably played USA vs Germany a hundred times.

Brilliant EA just Brilliant!!!

As a girl, I can honestly say EA went above and beyond in showing respect for women's football. What they created is great and in my opinion better than the men's side. The game overall seems great and the women's part is simply beautiful.
