[PhillyPhanatic14]

Any word yet on whether there will be co-op online Career Mode?

Fantastic news...being honest, I'll buy FIfa every year no matter what. Bad I know... but I like the graphics, kits, licenses etc. and even though I hate that isn't realistic enough, I still get it, so I am very glad to hear stuff like this. A step in the right direction anyway, I player career mode the most.

Unlimited subs in preseason is a good addition, especially if your 60 rated player asks to play. You can just play him a little bit then sub him out, just like IRL.

I also like the addition of preseason tournaments, however I wonder if you play in a preseason tournament will you still have regular friendlies outside the pre season tournament along with the tournament games.

The two year loan is a nice touch, but there needs to be a change in the AI, so more higher rated guys go out on loan.

Amen, 15 years is too short, especially if you want to have a player go through his career and then become a manager

With no NCAA football games, in FIFA there are plenty of clubs to take over from smaller leagues and help grow them.

This and older players never get loaned out in game. If you try to loan someone over the age of 21/22 (at least in my experience), the other team will tell you that they're not looking to loan him out. It happens all the time in real life though. For instance, if a club gets relegated and they have a player whose wages are above the club's means, but they might want him back the following season. Or if an older player is unhappy about playing time, but no one wants to pay for a full transfer. Just little things.

I like everything I hear.

Those who ask for 30 year career, you guys have too much time in your hands I can hardly finish 4-5 seasons. Playing online doesn't help obviously.

Preseason tournaments is nice. As much as I can't wait each season to start, it's also nice to have a chance to try out some guys, see what I have before league starts. Especially if it gives me opportunity to add to the budget, even better. More purpose for preseason. I usually play all the youngsters and subs in friendlies. Unlimited subs is a great addition for that purpose. Make everyone happy preseason.

Of course we'll still get that 50 overall guy saying "boss I feel good, play me in the next game" when you're going into the EPL season. "in your dreams buddy".

2 year loans is good, hopefully it goes both ways. I'd like to get rid of some youngsters for 2 years and not have to deal with them again every season until they become something remotely good to become a sub for the squad.

I never bother with youth academy. I feel like most EPL sides have enough youngsters that can go on loan for development and come back after a few seasons to be implemented into the system. Other than that, "loan and sign youngsters" is my academy.

Agree w/ everything Hedache but sometimes I'd like to sim when I'm done with my CM to see how the youngsters pan out.

I would also like to be able to export teams from seasons and create an offline tournament featuring my favorite/best clubs.

I agree hopefully we can see more variety of players going out on loan and not just young talent. Also I hope the youth team is improved as I found it really disappointing. If you are only playing with the EPL teams than it might not seem that big of deal but when you are trying to build a lower rated to for a few years it really becomes apparent how bad it is implemented with the youth's progression. Luckily it looks like the new training aspect could help this so we shall see.
