7 Things You Should Know Before You Play EAFC Career Mode!

- Hey everyone, today is more of an old school Geografifa video where i’ll be telling you 7 Things You Should Know Before You Play EA Sports FC Career Mode! I made a similar video for FIFA 23 and it seemed quite popular, so hopefully you enjoy this one too! Let’s get started.
You no longer have to play training every week!
Most people didn’t do this anyway, unless they were planning to do a full 15 season career. You can invest money in coaches, and the better the coach, the faster your player will improve.
You can also switch between sharpness and fitness for each player, which means your reserves and substitutes won’t be useless for 3 games anymore. Training Plans can be assigned individually or to groups of players: Starting XI, Subs, Reserves, which makes this a way better solution to player development.
Try to avoid improving too fast
CM can be up to 15 seasons, there's no point signing 75 rated Mexican free agents in League Two, just to go unbeaten. Take your time and try to enjoy the process, while adding challenges if you think the game is too easy. While you’re at it, i’d also recommend you limit the amount of free agents too. It really does make the game more challenging and fun!
The AI still isn't very good at building a squad.
Having played the beta quite a bit, the AI will still make mistakes with positioning, either signing no one in a position, or having 10 LB’s. You can semi fix this by assigning a second controller to the AI, fixing their team and having more fun playing against a functional squad.
Tactical styles help with this, with AI being able to sign players that fit into their chosen tactics. No more Giroud running in behind while Ben Yedder plays as a target man.
Everyone enjoys career mode in their own way.
Before you even open EAFC, think about what you’d like to do during your save. Set yourself goals and objectives so you always have a target, or your save can get old fast.
Some of my favourite career modes have been adding objectives, you might have watched my pentagon challenge series, or my more recent mega career where each episode I had a specific challenge to try to beat. This kept the game fun even into season 8 or 9.
You can use the new tactical styles to create a tactical vision, which can easily be used with moneyball thanks to the new scouting filters. Why not see if you can turn Man City into a long ball team, or make a super high pressing Italian team.
There isn't a huge amount of randomness in Career Mode.
Most of the time you are the manager of a stable club, so storylines are a good way of adding unpredictability to the game. There are tons of them out there, including my own (geografifa.com/Tools/Storylin...) that can introduce scenarios to your career mode save.
Winning isn't everything
CM can be more fun when you’re fighting for points rather than crushing every opponent. I always recommend competitive leagues where you’ll have multiple teams fighting for titles or continental competitions, whereas leagues such as Scotland are really only two horse races.You can still have lots of fun in these leagues with the likes of Hearts, Hibs or Dundee, but only if you can accept not winning the title for the first 5 or so seasons.
I’ve had loads of fun saves trying to qualify for Europe with bad teams, even a 7th placed finish can be fun if you pick the right team and challenge. Even if you turn the difficulty up one level and pick Luton, you can still have fun without winning any titles.
Create A Club gives CM a breath of fresh air
For sure try out some real teams for your first few saves on the new game, but the real fun comes from creating abandoned, forgotten or defunct teams that will never be on FIFA again. I’ve made a series where I recommended a team for every single league, using the FIFA 22 create a club system. FIFA 23 has the exact same system, only with 3rd kits and more player customisation, so check out that playlist ( • Why you should Create ... ) if you want to see more!

#fifa23 #careermode - Hry
A realistic Brighton career mode is always fun. Miss out on top 4? Sell your best players to UCL teams.
ngl manager career can be fun for once if the new tactics are good and not just rubbish.
It's gonna be rubbish, unfortunately.
They’re not good
Unless they change drastically from the beta
Bro, I’m fifa 23 I go full defence mode, 5-4-1 with 2 cdms and all on stay back while attacking. 2 seconds into the game they all sprint forward. It’s so annoying
@@shankikiii5448everything does
Completely and utterly useless if anything annoying and made the game worse. If I were you I wouldn’t waste my time.
Early shout for a Team to Use. SV Ulm in the 3.Liga. The last and only time they were in the top flight they were managed by Ralf Rangnick. You can recreate his career, gettin Ulm to the top flight, right the way to managing Man United and even the Austria national team
Create a Club will have shirts with sponsors and more stadiums? You literally made my day and got me hyped if thats true.
It will be great if we can design our own stadium, and I wouldn’t mind Vanrama National, and possibly North /South sometime
Great point about not improving too quick and that even a relegation scrap can be more fun 👍
I can't even get to a relegation scrap because I'm sacked by that point
@@WxB2001 LMFAO
The feature I have always wanted the watching the game as manager I love my tactical making and watching tha shii is fire🔥💯
Yought academi only here we go again! From ENG4 doing this every year and love it! And its a bit harder this year since no good talent from the start
Really solid video
My first save playthrough is with a create-a-club. Since they only have MLS for leagues here in "The States", I created my local team Forward Madison FC, which play in the USL 2 division (basically the US third tier.) The premise is that I'm just some US midwestern coach that has brought this team to the top tier through (fictional) promotion. Goals are to learn from the MLS experience and launch my coaching career either 1) into European football, with Liverpool being the end goal, or 2) finally pull the US Soccer Federations reputation out of the toilet by actually utilizing the talent of a so-far wasted generation. So far we're... not great, but that's the point!
Every year I always do an athletic club with basque only players and youth development 👍🏻
I used to do same thing, always signed player if he´s name was Inaki, Ander, Inigo etc Basque name :D
I think the reason for some things not being in the beta, like ai not doing great at squad building and there being non of the new create a club kits is because the beta is an older build, as i assume they did all of ultimate team and did some of the bigger features in career mode and decided to use that as the beta. It's probably also the reason why all the player ratings were the same as the start of last years
Or alternatively, EA sports don’t give a crap
Lol they low-key deleted pre game formations and presentation
When is beta going to be over??
Good video, I won't be wasting my money this year though. I will be playing heavily modded Fifa 23. I think it will be more fun than vanilla unrealistic EA FC 24
Excited to see what Fifer and his team are able to do with this
Fifer and his team are the only reason i still play this junk game.
@@gameaddictgonewild4391 100% it's sad how a small mod group can make the game so so much better. Greedy EA is trash.
I'll probably end up picking it up eventually, but gonna be sticking with realism mod for quite awhile
Sorry to focus on some tiny detail among all the infos you brought but did you say while talking about create a club that they were new stadiums ? New generic stadiums? That would be so nice
I dont understand the Tactical visions in career mode i feel like it limits you into certain tactics just based off of what pre set you have selected. I just want to fully customise my own style.
Play player career then
My plans for ea fc is to start with my Leicester City career mode that I do every year and do itfor as long as i want to. Then when i'm done with that i will make a Create A Club with Wakefield City, but also a player career mode, so I can switch between the two.
You should breeze through the Championship in the first season, as I suspect they will in real life. The challenge will be in rebuilding to be competitive in the Prem. Would be an interesting save. I think my first save will be with Plymouth trying to keep them up in the Championship. Their new kits are very sharp too which is nice.
What’s ur discord
ffs the one thing they needed to fix was AI transfers. I'd even love it if they had a few variants of transfer windows that were pre-set for a few seasons. And how hard would it be to implement a system to stop players transferring between large rival clubs. Wouldn't be difficult
The man city ai in my game keeps playing dias at rw and Julian Alvarez at cm
1:52 That goal from hakimi was on another level ...
I'm not sure if i want to buy EAFC 24 bc it looks like the same as always, only Squad Updates and many Changes but not more. if i will buy it i want to do a FC Bayern Realistic Career bc i'm Bayern Fan but at the moment I'm not really convinced by EAFC24
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Not signing the 92 overall 19 year old French Free Agent CF makes your career mode a hell of a lot more interesting.
I've never made it that far until now. I cant wait to use him and move him on after a season. Dont want someone that over powered for too long lol
Benzema Regen
good to know it wasn’t just me that got a broken benzema regen in every save
I always found Benzema's regen a pain to use. Firstly, he's a CF so you can't change him to a striker which is annoying. Secondly, you can change him to a winger or a CAM if you have a hole to fill in those positions which is alright. But I always found him to be utterly useless for my team where he would not contribute at all in every career mode I got him in. A 92 free agent is just so hard to ignore though haha.
LOOOOOOOL I needed to hear this 😂😂😂
Aberdeen, St Johnstone, St Mirren, Kilmarnock, Motherwell, Livingston, Ross County have left the chat.
As for the second point I would you can't enjoy the game when your board gives you stupid challenges and sacks you for not signing that one player from Asia or Finishing the season with unrealistic results
I really hope they fix that. At the very least, even if they keep some of the dumb objectives, don't punish you so much for not completing them.
@@digitalfootballer9032 the penalty just sucks... I mean I agree managers gets sacked all the time but make it realistic... how can a club in EFL league 2 can generate 100mil in 2 seasons?
I had a career mode save once where I did everything right in my objectives except getting to the R16 of the FA Cup and I got sacked because of it. I won the league, the Papa John's trophy, the carabao cup, but not getting to the R16 of the FA Cup was where they drew the line.
It must have been a glitch because after that FA Cup loss I was in the danger zone for a rating for the rest of the season, winning the treble couldn't even save me. I was fuming
I wish they bring the PES features in the game now... that would be so amazing.
Does the career storymode generator link not wokring for anyone else? It's blocking me saying attackers are trying ti steal my information or some rubbish
Yo i need help on the headed goal objective in ea fc career mode i wanna stay at bayern for another year
Tbh I only ever play career the gameplay has been bad since fifa 21 I just want it to be fast paced and skill moves to be effective it’s a game at the end of the day not a real life simulator
Thanks for video mate but I’m not playing it
1:52 did anyone saw that fucking goal
Fucking lucky
Rage quit
Does anyone know if the manager rating is still broken? Id love to do a slow build but if I don’t make the round of 16 of the FA cup with a league one side I get fired.
get live editor
i hope potential isnt broken this time... in the beginning of 23 it was broken and they didnt grow when they had 94 potential..
Why is gk not rushing when i press triangle
Are the player ratings after a match still bugged? If they aren't, with things like being able to keep the second keeper up in sharpness I might actually buy FC24. Because not being able to have 2 keepers in form and my subs having 5.0 ratings for no reason really ruins the experience for me in FIFA 23.
It's not perfect, but a way around your players getting terrible ratings for no reason is to let the final whistle blow, then pause and go to the menu and click "jump to result". The scoreline and everything will remain intact, but ratings will be boosted to a realistic level for most of your players, and anyone who really played poorly will retain a bad rating so it isn't cheating, it's simply a manual way to get around the bug. As for goalkeepers, if you are keeping your backup in the reserves he will get no sharpness boosts, but if he is in the bench he will get +2 sharpness for each training session you do with the squad. It's not great but better than zero.
Edit : Just make sure before you jump to result the game is over completely...I jumped the gun once and hit jump to result before the whistle blew and it gave one of my players an own goal in the 90th minute and turned a 2-1 win into a 2-2 draw 😂
@@digitalfootballer9032 I know about that whistle jump to results thing, but I don't like it. I'd rather play it safe and not lose an important game lmao.
Also, I didn't know about the GK on the bench tip, so thanks for that one.
Can you still watch the match without actually having to play it? I know fifa 23 you could.
On thumbnail its Juventus in Juventus there are 2 polish footballers such as Wojciech Szczęsny and Arkadiusz Milik
Yo anyone please help me if u know the answer. I recently made my first career mode in which I start with a 3 star team in the championship, I also changed some bad random player for my own to make me the star of my team. I changed his age to 17 and made his overal a 78. However when I add a development plan to me for some reason it takes ages for me to upgrade and it seems like the game thinks I am old and at the end of my career eventhough I am 17? Please help?
You cant fix it, you can change the player's stats and rating, but not the potential, sorry
I'm getting it in December
Ai is hardest i ever seen on fifa man they are unbeatable on legendary
🐐
Who’s idea was it to make the new commentary team not available in career?!
2:04 super goal from hakimi
Man united storyline challenge:
Harry Maguire can’t play any games 😂
What I'd like to know is if it'll be a buggy mess where potential doesn't work for 3 months again...
Bring back pre match line ups
Accrington Stanley to the Champions League.....Roooooaaaaarrrrr 💪😁💪🇬🇧
Do I buy eafc24? If so why if not why?
Anyone else notice you cant fire the coaches
How many of these features will actually be on current gen??
Current gen is PS5. Old gen is ps4 just fyi. It’s been 3 years since new consoles released it’s the current gen now
@@Oddelijah current gen is ps4/ xbox one and next gen is ps5/xbox series x
@@nathan-vv8tznah, current gen is Series X/S and PS5
@@nathan-vv8tzno it’s not mate, PS4 is last Gen
Does it actually work on PC? I wasted my money on Fifa23, went back to Fifa22. I feel like this wont work either.
Wdym does it not work? Like the old-gen version of FIFA being on PC?
FIFA 23 worked on PC well. So it depends how bad/good is your PC
One question. Can u watch every game instead play the games
Yes
I wish they patch the game up with extra national teams. I know that in FIFA they mainly want to focus on teams, but why is the international tournament with only a limited number of teams? Then they can just take it out for all I care? However ? Either you expand and have a full-fledged tournament with qualifiers, or just clubs because this is just pathetic what is now available from countries. At Konami they had understood for a long time how to do things without licenses, at EA Sports they are apparently still asleep..
I then argue for regular teams with the flag of the country in them. Not every national team has to be licensed, right? Isn't it realistic that players from Brazil or Japan will also be called up if they play well and a tournament is going on, right? They should reconsider that at EA.
1:39 holy cow
i use create a club and they youth only btw
I hope they get rid of these stupid challenges in player cm.. youre a lw and scored 2 goals and an assist but only get an 7 rating and the coach puts you on the bank because of the missed challenges.. get the ball 5 times, score from a distance.. stupid
Create a club is so good... I currently have a few saves with... Dulwich Hamlet, Mile End FC & Horsham Vipers🤣🤣
It's all about cheap S.Korean players
Is that fifa 23 or 24 in the back? Looks the same
It's 23, you can't show 24 gameplay on youtube yet.
@Jaqueese seen gameplay of the Fc24 beta it's under the radar
0:21
The game settings disappear after a day 😢 worst game i bought ,no more ea sports for me
4-3-3. Total football. Bring through the youngsters and sell them for millions. It’s the Ajax way.
No, Im scoring 50 with the Mexican player! 😂
You are certainly payed by EA. No depth on the state of the game, no pointing out bugs, or lacking content.
Seems more like a add than a honest revieuw
Be aware people. EA will disappoint you for 100eu, again.
Lmao I got fired with out even playing a game 😂I think the game has a few bugs still
first
Things you should ....know its fifa all over again! Back with more errors and bugs we've seen from past fifa's combined all together in one game, with the extortion of massive amount of cash from a players, not giving them the satisfaction or gameplay they deserve like Konami with PES.
3rd
Wack
Olympiacos FC is out again. Ridiculous and finished company
You should buy it for PC and use mods
"Winning isn't everything". Spoken like someone who has never played in a proper match in his life.
One question. Can u watch every game instead play the games
In the new manager camera mode apparently yes you can't play the game only make substitutions and tactical changes
One question. Can u watch every game instead play the games
Yes you can decide to watch the match every game (on the beta I watched Arsenal beat Leyton orient in the carabao cup using my youth players)
K thanks
@@matty12776 no problem honesty I enjoyed watching my 65 rating players beat Leyton orient
