FIFA 17 Official Thread - Out now and selling by the bucketload

[shadow202]

Right, after a couple of seasons away from the pitch I’m looking at getting a new football game. My current game is PES2016 which I’ve played to death and am utterly sick of, but before that it was FIFA all the way back to PES6.

FIFA 18 is out and I’m interested, but I have a question for those that are playing it:

Does FIFA still have a the “create-a-player-and-then-do-their-career” mode? Offline only, I’m hoping. I know it’s got the Alex Hunter mode but I’m after a more personalised experience.

I remember on FIFA 15 they had it so you could create a player and progress their career, and in matches choose between controlling just them or the entire team, is that still around?

You can do an offline player career. So you make your own "pro" player and then start your career. If you pick a big team expect to get loaned out. The more you do on the pitch for your position you unlock skills etc which boosts stats.

Short answer is yes you can.

The journey pisses me off with its challenges. Come back from 3-0 down in 30 minutes and your team play and defend like wank. strawberry float you

The journey

More to the point the Kim hunter utter bollox when Germany score every time they have a shot. And you’re expected to win from 2 down. Just frustrating more than anything, what were they thinking
