As a person who always play career mode, in my opinion Fc25 career mode looks amazing. The features they added is kinda unique for example the youth academy and the live starting points.
The problem imo with career mode has always been the same and always will be. The fact you can play the games defeats the whole point for me. If you’re not managing then where’s the fun?
Glad someone’s pointed out the menu colours/vibe being the exact same as last fifa it’s so annoying. You used to have a different colour every fifa and it actually felt like a new game. I also hate the dark themes they’ve gone for the past few years makes it feel so gloomy and boring

'New' additions: - 5v5 mode: which was in like FIFA 09, or other variations of the game at that time - manager-specific tactics in FUT: was in FUT, got removed after FIFA 14 - Custom evolution cosmetics: was promised/expected for FC 24 - Removal of contracts: which is a small W, but they should've removed it together with when they removed the fitness after FIFA 20 (or 19, can't remember exactly) - An 'all-new', innovative AI: They come up with this shit every year, and the AI only gets worse
I'VE PLAYED FIFA SINCE 1994... let that sink in... I'm in my early 40s and I simply no longer have the energy to play ultimate team but I'll try enjoy career mode in world class
I think one thing that sums up EA laziness is how when new premier league clubs got promoted, they would always add in that club's new stadium by the time the game has released. FC24, it wasn't until mid April when Luton Town's stadium was added
I think the biggest thing that goes unnoticed by most people is how dark and depressing the visuals on the game are. You touched on it at roughly 8:35, and comparing what the menus look like now to back then is night and day (literally)
@@k1ngfaze248 selling the same game with very little new not even a menu colour for £80-£100 whilst still trying to sell the customer in app purchases is shocking. Free to play format with full budget launch price.
Yeah, these dudes are so gullable.... it's the same shit every year... what makes em think ea would actually bother just because it's a diff number... Wait until 2k period
So, I’ve always sucked at video games, but as a football fan for a good chunk of my life so far, I finally decided to get my hands on one of these games because I’m an adult and I do what I want 😂 I started out by getting an older edition (I went for 23) because I felt like getting a used/cheaper option was the way to go for my first game, but now I’m kinda obsessed! I’m still not great but I guess I’m making up for many years of zero exposure to gaming, lol.
I remember in the SNES there was this football game with a "challenges" section where you needed to do things like: turn a game you are losing 3-0 will 10 minutes to go and you start with a corner, or hold a 1-0 advantage against a top team with 3 players sent off and other combinations. I think it would be amazing to bring this back and maybe unlock things when doing a number of challenges
The one aspect that entices me the most is that Career Mode has Icons and female options. The latter will be a completely different meta that should entice a few fans, but the former is what really caught my attention as long as they INTENTIONALLY utilize the option to use Icons rather than what they did in FIFA 20 where you could add a 79-year-old Pele who retires after a single season.
Will there still be scripting in FUT? Will my defender be able to get the ball from the guy with +3 overall? Is my gk going to dive the wrong way while the other keeper stops everything? When I win the ball is it going to bounce back to my opponent 3 times before I get it? Are they going to have trossard marking drogba on the corner kicks still? If I go up 3-0 will my players suddenly start passing the ball wrong? Is my last defender going to keep a guy onside for 20 yards and not mark him?
You’re right on the menu thing looking the same. When I saw it, it really bugged me that EA had found a way to get even more lazy between fifas and it removes the feeling of it even being a different game 🤦♂️
As a CM player I can say I'm expecting to be eating good when I get the game about a month after launch. Gameplay I'll have to wait and see what its like, although it would've been nice to see the womens roster expanded past just the 5 leagues w/ the addition to CM.
One of the biggest things I hate about EA Sports games in general is their use of buzzwords. They coat all of their marketing with words like “tech” and “synergy”. It worked back in the Xbox 360 era but now it just feels like outdated marketing and lies.
Live starts is awesome. It will give career mode way more longevity and give a lot of content for youtube creators after new years. Like saving clubs from relegation and replacing managers that got fired. Also the pre-career options like sliders, weather, CPU AI settings are good for players like me that use sliders a lot and try to play more realistically. I couldn't care less about the other modes (except clubs but it's been dead since all my friends quit playing EAFC lol) though so idk if any of the changes there will convince me to play those.
I’m happy that they added duplicate storage however I hope one they will add weather changing. I would love to play like in a rainy day or a snowy pitch. They used to have a back in the day. We need goalie evolution.

I am buying it for Carreer and Clubs. That's it. Clubs is , you know clubs, really REALLY fun with friends, Carreer got a good update imo, walkouts, first 11, etc.
FCIQ needs to deliver the most. My biggest gripe with FC 24 was that there was barely any player movement on the pitch from AI team mates. Faaar too static so having plsyers move into positions snd making forward runs will definitely improve the game
the best thing for career mode would be an option to turn off overrall ratings and import real life transfer market values, which should change based on player's stats (when they go down or up) and based on age, that way players like cancelo and trent would have realistic defensive stats and not overrated stats, same with hard working players that are rated for their work ethic and determination but their skills aren't that great, so ea has to give them boosted stats to reach an higher ovr so they can match their reputation in the game
Only reason I had fifa this year was because my free trial never expired for some reason. Even with it being free I couldn’t play it beyond October unless it was clubs.
I got the beta, and the first thing I did was try a game of rush. It was honestly quite lackluster, and i ended up quitting a few minutes in. I don't think EA liked it because then all my game modes disappeared 😂
They had to do Career Mode justice. People have been screaming at EA for years to make it better. The new changes are not crazy but they're welcomed after years of nothing. The only thing we really need back is the Catalogue and we're somewhat sorted. Its progress, but knowing EA they'll find some way to screw it up again.
I hope the actually add some new awesome stadiums to career mode selection. They've had the same shit stadiums for 15 years. Rush will actually be dope, it will be the most chill mode.
I enjoy video as allways, but I hear some echo's in last part of video. It isn't something that bothers me at all, but it will be nice and easy fix that will add to quality of your work.
I kinda wish you could buy individual game modes cuz I only played fifa for career mode so I’ll probably get fc25 when it goes in a super sale or gets added to psplus
What Career Mode NEEDS is like a Customisable Stadium system so you can Custom Build your Stadium… Similar to how you can Kinda make a Custom Stadium in Ultimate Team 🙏😁
I’m my opinion I struggle to care about how the Menus look or if they have changed, I’d be far happier if they didn’t bother changing them and just focused on fixing the game and adding good features
Honestly, they seem to care more this year than before and i think I'll buy the game cuz honestly i care about career mode more than other gamemodes and they seem to care about it more now i think the potential of a competing football game is necessary for this reason Even though I'm mostly going to stick with fifa/FC but if we have a competing game against it they will push themselves to be much better
100th, anyways , this honestly one of the best FC/FIFA reviews I’ve ever seen, no bias , solid points , looking at parts of why you would and wouldn’t want to buy it, honestly , great review mate! Keep up the good work .
Please bring on FIFA and pro clubs, ea career mode is still dull, these 40 features would be what could have made this game really wild and more fun in my view - let me know which ones you agree with or what I missed: 1) player transfers too boring, not like football manager where you can declare interest and try get the player to force a move or to force a player out 2) contract negotiations also very boring and too easy, could have had the praise player or speak about to try motivate the player prior to contract negotiations 3) assistant manager employment not there, so simulation or media management could be moved on to assistant manager 4) Fabrizio Romano idea is good, but why not have the ability to create conflict with him and or leak story to him to get to a player 5) why no feature to ask your representative to target clubs or an international position you want, ie: I want to be the Real Madrid manager so get your name leaked through your assistant or speak to club, same applies for the international position 6) recruitment of retiring players to coaching staff, far fetched but why not 7) stories of the club that get hyped up when you are on a cup run, or on a double or treble potential 8) celebrations of cup wins, always bland and boring 9) bombshells like a club being taken over or getting in to financial fair play problems 10) transfers should be inline with financial fair play 11) winning advertising by meeting certain targets that boost your transfer budget or same applies to retain advertising 12) recognizing a retiring player correctly 13) better ballon dor reaction and prediction exchanges with media pre and post interviews 14) conflict with rival manager 15) making player reveal much more engaging 16) creation center that allows us to upload and download creations 17) stadium creation 18) story mode should have more media engagement 19) intro in to stadiums pre match, fifa 99 and fifa World Cup 98 had a great intro to the stadium with a drone shot around the stadium 20) player celebrations - only 5 or 6 were decent, the rest were crap in fc 24, bring back the old more exciting celebrations 21) fifa 97 indoor matches was an amazing mode 22) fouls that really injure players is great when you want to get dirty, it’s not nice but it’s fun 23) fifa World Cup 2022 had the flaming ball on power shots from long distance, it’s a game, this is cool and exciting 24) you can’t score from behind the half way line, what’s the point of making games so realistic but you miss this fun and cool very realistic feature 25) player swap in transfers, why restrict it to 1 player and not multiple 26) player development in career mode is near impossible, what’s the point of scouting a 15year old who could be a 94 but by the time he is 18 he is still less than 80 while you could buy an 18yr old that’s 87 or 88 like Gavi type player or endrick 27) why not have more legends on every update that you can auto download to bring in to manager mode instead of making it restricted, there is no excitement or continuity without this 28) why don’t squad update in the game and players update stats at each point based on reality 29) why not update the feature of manager mode to have challenges in each season and scenarios that keep the seasons more engaging 30) would be nice to have legend managers such as Scolari or alex Ferguson 31) the commentators are dull - ai use it and make it more engaging, transfer speculation, links, club or league records, create more anticipation and hype, celebrations, more about manager in trouble or praising manager, same for the club. 32) crowd fire works, where’s that, crowds like dortmund 33) in club creation choosing fans to be more wild or less wild, this should also make gameplay on pitch harder when fans turn on you or when you up against a crowd that’s notorious 34) we need to a choice as to which type of free kick mode to choose, like select the target point, add curve, or use the existing model 35) if we can choose to start at a live point, why not have a nostalgia element and maybe go back to play the game based on 2003 or 1995 squads 36) referees that tend to give more cards 37) remove var as an option 38) Brazilian league should be there, if we can not play it then make a creation center that allows us to download custom content that includes leagues 39) we should have the option to increase or decrease ticket prices 40) capacity of stadiums should increase with option to engage with board or should be awarded based on shirt sales or club success I know that was long but tell me who agrees with this
Career mode needs to fix the boardroom expectations. Was doing a career mode w villa. 4th season in, finished winning the treble but bc i didnt play 3 youth team players in 3 games or whatever the fuck, and because i didnt sell 2 youth team players for x amount i got sacked. Ridiculous. I had won the double the year before
I'm gonna buy it on sale only , i don't think there is any significant changes. No create a club updates with new chest sponsors, no face scan in 2024 , no stadium builder, no choosing ticket prices, simple things that would really make a change in my opnion.
I’m probably nitpicking but one thing I don’t like is the generic tracksuits the players wear when walking out or the coaching staff wear in cutscenes each clubs is exactly the same but different colour and badge, little stuff like that bothers me
What's your opinion on UFC releasing a week or two before fc25 drops despite loads of people being of the mind that it's way too early? Do you think that people's first impression of the game would put them off for the game altogether?
Completely agree with the menu, switching it up every year just made the game feel new and fresh, 22-23 stayed the same, and now 24-25 stayed the same, they’re getting lazier.
I exclusively play career mode. Honestly, if they fix the gameplay i'm buying. I just can't handle the pain you're exposed to when playing with an underdog team
Something I wish came to the game was sponsors for create a club. In my opinion not having them destroys the realism. EA loves money so this is an easy way to get a bunch of companies to pay to be in the game. If not at least some fake ones like in f1
7:33 literally sums it up for me, couldn’t of said it any better. Nothing unique about the game. When people complain ‘it’s the same game every year’, this is what I think of too. Well said mate
As a person who always play career mode, in my opinion Fc25 career mode looks amazing. The features they added is kinda unique for example the youth academy and the live starting points.
Yeah I can get behind Career Mode this year, I think it’s worthwhile the purchase this year
Even with this it'll suck, never have faith or hype with EA

Rush is like clubs. You can play drop in matches as well as with your mates. And you use one of your FUT players.
Only reason I had fifa this year was because my free trial never expired for some reason. Even with it being free I couldn’t play it beyond October unless it was clubs.

Not only are the menus not unique. They cause the game to crash on PC and takes longer to navigate.

I kinda wish you could buy individual game modes cuz I only played fifa for career mode so I’ll probably get fc25 when it goes in a super sale or gets added to psplus
I play a lot of manger career mode so abit exciting to see what they have added
I wish EA would focus more on offline game modes. Sometimes on UT I feel like I'm playing with people predisposed to do something absolutely insane.
Exited to see what the games gonna look like
What Career Mode NEEDS is like a Customisable Stadium system so you can Custom Build your Stadium… Similar to how you can Kinda make a Custom Stadium in Ultimate Team 🙏😁
Bro got a Trophy before Tottenham. You love to see it
We all know everyone will be playing it
That MAKES some to buy it
Just waiting for it to be on sale
Maybe next year
As far as the beta goes i like the concept of the 5v5 rush gamemode its pretty fun with friends camavinga is goated for me 😂
What about create a player ? Can we add playstyles to created players?
get your popcorn ready, folks
still only have news on the beta is there anyway to fix it
I’m my opinion I struggle to care about how the Menus look or if they have changed, I’d be far happier if they didn’t bother changing them and just focused on fixing the game and adding good features
Honestly, they seem to care more this year than before and i think I'll buy the game cuz honestly i care about career mode more than other gamemodes and they seem to care about it more now
i think the potential of a competing football game is necessary for this reason
Even though I'm mostly going to stick with fifa/FC but if we have a competing game against it they will push themselves to be much better
I’m glad that there is no contact with ult
Finally a game that at least slightly excites me. Hopefully UFL will push Ea to improve even more in the next few years.
so the roles looks good reminds me of a basic FM
100th, anyways , this honestly one of the best FC/FIFA reviews I’ve ever seen, no bias , solid points , looking at parts of why you would and wouldn’t want to buy it, honestly , great review mate! Keep up the good work .
Much appreciated mate!
Please bring on FIFA and pro clubs, ea career mode is still dull, these 40 features would be what could have made this game really wild and more fun in my view - let me know which ones you agree with or what I missed:
1) player transfers too boring, not like football manager where you can declare interest and try get the player to force a move or to force a player out
2) contract negotiations also very boring and too easy, could have had the praise player or speak about to try motivate the player prior to contract negotiations
3) assistant manager employment not there, so simulation or media management could be moved on to assistant manager
4) Fabrizio Romano idea is good, but why not have the ability to create conflict with him and or leak story to him to get to a player
5) why no feature to ask your representative to target clubs or an international position you want, ie: I want to be the Real Madrid manager so get your name leaked through your assistant or speak to club, same applies for the international position
6) recruitment of retiring players to coaching staff, far fetched but why not
7) stories of the club that get hyped up when you are on a cup run, or on a double or treble potential
8) celebrations of cup wins, always bland and boring
9) bombshells like a club being taken over or getting in to financial fair play problems
10) transfers should be inline with financial fair play
11) winning advertising by meeting certain targets that boost your transfer budget or same applies to retain advertising
12) recognizing a retiring player correctly
13) better ballon dor reaction and prediction exchanges with media pre and post interviews
14) conflict with rival manager
15) making player reveal much more engaging
16) creation center that allows us to upload and download creations
17) stadium creation
18) story mode should have more media engagement
19) intro in to stadiums pre match, fifa 99 and fifa World Cup 98 had a great intro to the stadium with a drone shot around the stadium
20) player celebrations - only 5 or 6 were decent, the rest were crap in fc 24, bring back the old more exciting celebrations
21) fifa 97 indoor matches was an amazing mode
22) fouls that really injure players is great when you want to get dirty, it’s not nice but it’s fun
23) fifa World Cup 2022 had the flaming ball on power shots from long distance, it’s a game, this is cool and exciting
24) you can’t score from behind the half way line, what’s the point of making games so realistic but you miss this fun and cool very realistic feature
25) player swap in transfers, why restrict it to 1 player and not multiple
26) player development in career mode is near impossible, what’s the point of scouting a 15year old who could be a 94 but by the time he is 18 he is still less than 80 while you could buy an 18yr old that’s 87 or 88 like Gavi type player or endrick
27) why not have more legends on every update that you can auto download to bring in to manager mode instead of making it restricted, there is no excitement or continuity without this
28) why don’t squad update in the game and players update stats at each point based on reality
29) why not update the feature of manager mode to have challenges in each season and scenarios that keep the seasons more engaging
30) would be nice to have legend managers such as Scolari or alex Ferguson
31) the commentators are dull - ai use it and make it more engaging, transfer speculation, links, club or league records, create more anticipation and hype, celebrations, more about manager in trouble or praising manager, same for the club.
32) crowd fire works, where’s that, crowds like dortmund
33) in club creation choosing fans to be more wild or less wild, this should also make gameplay on pitch harder when fans turn on you or when you up against a crowd that’s notorious
34) we need to a choice as to which type of free kick mode to choose, like select the target point, add curve, or use the existing model
35) if we can choose to start at a live point, why not have a nostalgia element and maybe go back to play the game based on 2003 or 1995 squads
36) referees that tend to give more cards
37) remove var as an option
38) Brazilian league should be there, if we can not play it then make a creation center that allows us to download custom content that includes leagues
39) we should have the option to increase or decrease ticket prices
40) capacity of stadiums should increase with option to engage with board or should be awarded based on shirt sales or club success
I know that was long but tell me who agrees with this
Career mode needs to fix the boardroom expectations. Was doing a career mode w villa. 4th season in, finished winning the treble but bc i didnt play 3 youth team players in 3 games or whatever the fuck, and because i didnt sell 2 youth team players for x amount i got sacked. Ridiculous. I had won the double the year before
Really hope they change defending and so on ,games end 8-9 and you can just walk straight through from kick off and score
I'm gonna buy it on sale only , i don't think there is any significant changes. No create a club updates with new chest sponsors, no face scan in 2024 , no stadium builder, no choosing ticket prices, simple things that would really make a change in my opnion.
People always criticise and act like they going to get UfL but in the end they will be playing FC25
I’m probably nitpicking but one thing I don’t like is the generic tracksuits the players wear when walking out or the coaching staff wear in cutscenes each clubs is exactly the same but different colour and badge, little stuff like that bothers me
is the market gonna be shared on PC also?
Hope they give us online co op manager mode at some point.
Really hope ncaa was the wake up call for thier sport diving i need a career that mot fm25
I remember when EA had *ALL NEW PROMOTED EPL* side's stadium availabilie at launch. This new thing of post launch by Xmas to get Portman Road. No
That Barca kit is nostalgic
Did they give us back the match intro?
What's your opinion on UFC releasing a week or two before fc25 drops despite loads of people being of the mind that it's way too early? Do you think that people's first impression of the game would put them off for the game altogether?
Completely agree with the menu, switching it up every year just made the game feel new and fresh, 22-23 stayed the same, and now 24-25 stayed the same, they’re getting lazier.
Rush is like clutch time on 2k
For menus, they should just put themes... So we can choose our own customizable theme 🤷🏽♂️
I exclusively play career mode. Honestly, if they fix the gameplay i'm buying. I just can't handle the pain you're exposed to when playing with an underdog team
I play career mode too since 2001. I did fut a while but I'm over that.
Something I wish came to the game was sponsors for create a club. In my opinion not having them destroys the realism. EA loves money so this is an easy way to get a bunch of companies to pay to be in the game. If not at least some fake ones like in f1
They need to make online career mode, or combined with another person to manage it together
7:33 literally sums it up for me, couldn’t of said it any better. Nothing unique about the game. When people complain ‘it’s the same game every year’, this is what I think of too. Well said mate
Rush and the new tactics / player roles is a significant change
They literally added a whole new game mode , how is that not significant?
It either it might be one of the best “FIFA”’s in the last year’s, OR it will be a flop.
Edit: ngl I’m actually hyped for FC 25
