FIFA 16: Career Mode Adds Pre-Season Tournaments, Player Training, More

[rckabillyRaider]

I'm wondering if the preseason tournaments will even be available if you start a career in MLS because of the calendar difference? From the FIFA 16 website:

Quote:

During the summer months, all the major clubs travel around the world in preparation for the upcoming season. In FIFA 16, we are introducing this key development period to Career Mode. Prior to a given season, your club will be invited to three out of a possible nine tournaments, played in Asia, Europe, Latin America, or North America.

Now, I'm ready for that soundtrack announcement!

Player Training: They say you'll be able to train your "youth players". Does this mean you'll be able to train your Youth Academy players before you call them up? OR just the younger players on your current squad?

Maybe it really doesn't matter either way, but I'm curious...

Hello!

I couldn't agree more! Particularly concerning the stats records from year to year for every palyer in every league/competiton.
IRL a clubs that want to recruit a player can scout him to have an idea of its skills and overall level but there is no way they can figure out precisely the player rating as we do IG. The only thing that can give a club an objective evaluation of a player is its stats sheet including not only goals and assists but also rate of pass success, tackle success, dribble succes and so on... But when you think that in past editions of fifa the league table is the only thing that you can look at in others leagues (also there is no way to know the winner of others domestic cups winners!), this stats records is not close to happen.

By the way did you noticed that the track of other leagues tables is somehow random, for example from week to week the number of defeat of lets say Barcelona can be two, then five, then three!??
This is something that really annoys me... If other leagues evolution is not continuous but instead occurs in several parrallel dimensions at the same time then of course there is no point to give us player stats!!!

Cheers!!!

THIS!

I really dont know why it's not in the game, its ridiculous! I remember playing NHL 2001 and I had stat-sheets of all the players.

Having a record of cup winners, top scorers, transfer moves for more than a year is maybe one of the most important things to create the illusion of realism in career modes.

To get involved in the game I wanna know more about the teams I play against, I wanna know who won last years titles, who scored the most goals etc.
Otherwise the whole illusion kind of breaks down.

I hardly doubt that the "story" part they wanna include is any good if they dont provide us with at least a small amount of those things that make manager/career modes great.

Up to now it was a total joke! Like you guys said, no transfer log and the other league tables were just randomized and not consistent.

For the first time ever this year I might need to take a vacation day on Tuesday to get an entire day of FIFA in.

You don't know that, that bug hasn't been fixed. They won't announce the YA working properly as feature.
