    Started a career mode with Celtic, just in pre season at the moment. Also started a journey at Spurs, hard enough though when controlling just the one man currently sent out on loan to Newcastle and have 3 goals in 3 games and few assists.

    I've found the journey pretty boring tbh apparently it ends after 1 season should surely have included European football and International tournaments World Cup/Euro's etc

    I've picked this up relatively quickly, played 6 games so far, winning 5 and drawing 1.

    I'm presuming this year's game was a form of trial. If it's a success I wouldn't be surprised to see them expand it next year.

    Although I haven't played it yet myself.

    total *, playing online league games with celtic
    Takes ages to find a player then when it does the connection is * or the player leaves....on top of that the whole game just feels slow and clunky.

    Sick of only playing 5 star teams as well online because it finds other players faster.

    Bought it on PC so cant even refund

    January window in my Celtic career mode. Vorm, McCarthy, Douglas and Coulibaly all in. 23 points clear, into the Europe League last 32 as well. I find the difficulty to be totally random. I've been playing World Class, I beat Barca 3-2 at the Nou Camp and only gave up 6 shots, while I drew with Killie my next game after scoring in the 89' to tie it. Was being outpassed the entire game.

    Don't think I've ever played a game with so many odd bugs in it. Certain players cannot be edited, ie. you can't adjust their kit, boots ect at all. Others have their rating change completely out of the blue. I've seen Broony at 72 in the squad selection screen and 74 on the contract page, no change in date or age.

    I've also noticed some absolutely hilarious valuations and transfer budgets in career mode. I only play career mode so for me the games been a massive dissapointment. I'm not expecting it to be super realistic but for the most part transfer budgets and the players a team targets (at least for Scottish teams) are realistic. That all went out the window with this game. Every Scottish team has at least £1 million to work with. Dundee and Hamilton have both offered me £2 million for Gordon. Rangers have also approached me for players, which in past FIFA's was never possible. Celtic starting with a budget of £11 million and a wage budget of £150k/week is just cringy for me. Also noticed that MALMO have a value of £89 million, while Celtic sit at £45 million... I swear some of these EA producers just guessed on some teams and did absolutely 0 research or insite. I'm the type thats a sucker for realism and historical accuracy, and FIFA has completely destroyed that this year.

    Let us create players AND be able to control what their potential will be. I want Jack Aitchison on the bench but I don't want to have Barcelona bid £100 million on him cause he's a created player. Let me adjust the potential on certain players the same way I can adjust their ratings. This feature is in NHL and is such a simple attribute that can add so much. Finally, let me adjust transfer budgets of teams. Would allow a realistic touch, and a bit of fun.

    Seems decent so far. Passing and shooting takes a bit to get used to.

    Only played ultimate team so can't comment on career mode etc. but the way the game plays this year suits my style so well. Passing seems so much more slick and you need to be more precise with your shooting, find myself scoring beltors into the top bag a lot more their year. I'm * at free kicks though, last year I was amazing at them.

    Started a Celtic career last night. Tried to get James McCarthy, bid accepted but he wouldn't accept the contract. Demanded £80,000 per week...rejected it. Ended up offering him £100,000 per week and he still rejected.

    *.

    Enjoying it but the shooting seems very sluggish so far.
