Gameplay wise - it’s the same so I won’t bore you with that detail.I do the same.
Is Career Mode much different? Are the new additions any good?
You can talk to players individually & you’ll get to do press conferences before certain matches (I simmed to the start of the season to see what the press conferences are like).
In short, they’re easy. Every option would raise team morale or player morale. Maybe because it was pre-season and you can’t say much wrong at that stage but was hoping for a negative impact.
Not sure how team morale affects performance. In football manager it obviously has an effect but in Fifa you control the players so I’m not sure. Maybe players won’t move off the ball as much if they’re unhappy?
It’s a step in the right direction but I didn’t see any options to negatively impact anyone (I know it’s not something you’d want to do but it’s not that realistic if every option is a positive).
For example, Honeyman (in the beta he is still at Sunderland) welcomes me to the squad and the least positive thing I can say is ‘thank you’. I wanted a PG fuck off option.
They need to bring negative options into it imo but it’s too late to do that (perhaps in Fifa 21).
The customisation is very in detail this time but I can’t be arsed with taking potentially half an hour to make him look like me. It’s a step in the right direction though.
Other aspects of career mode - exactly the same from what I can tell. Pre season tournaments are the same (choose from 3), contracts are still the same. Only difference they’ve made is adding in press conferences. No youth teams still.
Wouldn’t say it’s worth another £50 from the Beta but of course I’ll be getting it straight away.
