The FUTHEAD preview has a lot more details and it sounds like we are getting another let down.. Many of the big issues, like super lame "press conferences" are unchanged. Sigh..

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
Yea, I just read the review over there. Not as pretty as it looks on the screen. They said almost everything is unchanged with transfers/loans/press conferences/international offers/training. Transfer logic sounds the same, if not worse.
There are expectations for youth players (such as, increase 5 players by 10+ overall and get them into 5 games during the season) but it doesn't seem like the youth academy has changed, which means we'll still probably be stuck with 50 overall's who don't progress very fast and might fail that objective (while the other teams get artificial 20 point overall boosts for youth players, right?).
These are shiny and new, but man they really don't want to get under the hood to make some big changes, do they?Teams:

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
The FUTHEAD preview mentioned winning the Premier League and successfully completing two critical objectives as Manchester United, only to receive plenty of emails about the position being in danger.

Thanks for the heads up with the Futhead preview, HenryClay1844! Here's a direct link if anyone else is interested: http://news.futhead.com/posts/fifa-1...r-mode-preview
- they also did a video-preview if tl;dr: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYVI...ure=youtu.be&a
After reading their reaction to and comments on the new features I gotta say my initial optimistic outlook from the EA preview has turned a bit pessimistic, especially when it comes to the managers (only 11 non-customizable managers to choose from and no real managers in the game outside the BPL managers, ugh!). I guess the guys at Futhead could have been playing an early build of the game and that some things have been fine-tuned or added but I highly doubt it. Once again it seems like we're being sold the same old rusty car albeit with a new paint job and a new car smell to try to distract us from the god awful state of the car. I'm feeling very disappointed right now...Last edited by Fabric; 08-12-2016, 04:49 PM.Just my tuppence worth...Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
Well after reading that It's 100% obvious that EA only cares about FUT. Thanks EA for adding flashy menus and nothing else. I mean, do they not even know how the transfer market works? Give me a break.Last edited by JayD; 08-12-2016, 04:59 PM.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
With all of the hype around the new "journey" mode, I thought for sure manager career mode would receive some significant overhauls. Going off the Futhead preview, I've got to say I'm extremely disappointed. I don't even feel rage this year. It's just a real bummer.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
I thought the opposite when I heard that. Fewer resources for career mode. There is so little incentive to improve existing modes in FIFA outside of FUT. It's a massive cash cow and by far the most popular mode. I wish CM was #1, but it just isn't. We have to accept that.
I wish there was a different version that was basically FIFA manager incorporated with the FIFA game with its own dedicated development priorities. But it doesn't seem like a logical development move to split FUT and the rest of FIFA.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
There will most likely be a few patches that fine tune things within the first few weeks!, I'm not the biggest advocate of releasing a game then patching it....But there are some things that show career mode is very slowly heading towards the right direction!.
With NBA 2k, The Show and even Madden having decent career mode these days, Fifa will eventually have too follow.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
Maybe I'm a "cup half full" kind of guy, but I see progress here. Sure it's not to the level of what some would expect, and the Futhead article is a bit concerning, but after years and years of CM being basically the same, it's something. Given all of the attention to their new Story Mode, you could expect CM to be untouched this year. That isn't the case.
I mean, FIFA is never going to be FM. Ever. If you find yourself disappointed by FIFA's CM every year, there is a great alternative.www.heyimbill.com | sports poster art and other cool stuffComment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
What a bummer reading that FUTHEAD article. After seeing what Madden has been doing, not to mention NBA2k and The Show, it is insane that Fifa stays relatively the same every year. There is so much potential for a game that brings in the amount of money that Fifa does, but somehow the game barely changes every year in career mode. Are there like 4 guys working on this mode and that's it?... With a whole year there has to be more that gets accomplished.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
I personally play both, but I also like to play the games more than I like to watch my team play. I agree that this is some progress, but it's just kind of wrapping paper. It's like they brought the expectations for your team that were hidden somewhere in the background to the forefront and added merchandise sales. They didn't change much else.
Last year they added training and pre season tournaments, and left everything the same.
These are nice additions, but they don't change any of the core problems. It's been years with some of these core problems. Where is stat tracking across all the leagues? Where is the fixed transfer logic? Just wish they would take some time to fix some stuff under the hood and give us more depth.Teams:

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
In career mode, does it allow you to play CPU vs CPU, so that way you can watch the computer handle the on field play and you manage the off the field duties? Thank you to all who reply.Comment

Re: FIFA 17 Career Mode Features Revealed
While knowing that nothing has really changed other than a new can of yellow paint. I kind of figured they would throw the same coding/scripting into the new engine for the first year. This is to be expected. They aren't going to make a new game from the ground up in a new engine, year one. They just don't have time to do that with a one year development cycle. Yes this year wont really be much of an improvement in a lot of areas. But maybe next year we start to see some real change. Hey, a guy can dream right. Also it will look pretty. And FUT. You guys wanna buy any coins? I prefer best value!

This looks like a few UI Elements were added to the old CM with some few objectives and that's it.Comment
