World Cup

There should be a mode where national teams offer you a team to coach and you have to coach the team for as long as you can to make them have golden generation and there should be a career mode where you are a player trying to reach the top

Great game but here are Suggestions

Suggestions:

-add many more player nationalities at club level. Arab, Caribbean, more European (Slavic ones, Wales, Austria, Belgium, Greek etc), African (Algeria, Morocco, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Cameroon etc) and South American (Colombia, Uruguay, Ecuador etc) obviously, in proportion to their presence in the real market.

-more character designs that align with their nationalities. For example, Mexico (the whole game in general) lack characters that look like Luis Romo, Alexis Vega and Carlos Vela. Take design inspo from them as well as Miguel Almirón (Paraguay) and Lautaro Martínez (Argentina).

-more of an active roll in defence; playable goalkeeper or have a play start with rival possession that we need to defend against. Ability to see opponent’s set pieces.

-TRAIT IDEA: at club level, give certain players an advantage in home games (conditional, ex. If your stadium is maxed out) and slightly nerf them somehow for the away games.

-make weather a factor that affects gameplay.

-more accurate uniform colours (ex. team Mexico need white shorts and red socks).

-punish bad management (being fired after losing x amount of games, for example).

-bonuses or contracts that make joining one club more attractive than another at the end of a season. As others have mentioned, joining a big club should already come with good facilities and players. Bonuses for x amount of clean sheets for example.

-cameos (Ancelotti, Pep, Zidane)

-add hundreds more dilemmas (ex. travel sickness, breakups etc.).

-way more generous offers from other clubs that want my players and more prize money bc I’m hitting back to back trebles, but still breaking even.

-Trophy confetti should match club colours.

-ability to save/share a game you really liked so you can rewatch later. This can be a floppy disk icon where our favourite games are listed. This would make it easier to share on socials too, idk you guys could've capitalised this World Cup frl.

-ability to see the minute a goal was scored or a booking was made; including names.

-pixelated cutscenes after winning the league or tournament (ex. the club bus driving through traffic, club lifting the trophy).

-fans in stands wearing club colours.

-as mentioned, when I send a long ball, rivals should have no business heading it away when it's still a good 5 metres in the air.

- more leagues: Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Austria and Greece.

- I vote against changing player names and kits. It's part of the charm and experience to have your Xavis and Miguels in LaLiga and your Mathieus and Thibaults in Ligue 1. Also, why would a home Napoli kit be anything other than light blue? Games gone.

-Individual player awards: Balon d'Or, golden boot.

-More creative AI in Hard/Extreme mode instead of just booting it in 0.0001 seconds

-ability to loan out your own players.

-the hall of fame doesn't work and now I can't see players that I spent years winning titles with. Club legends, just gone.

- Chivas and Athletic Club Bilbao should only have Mexican and Spanish players, respectively.

- more international football: Copa Oro, AFCON, Eurocopa and Copa América.

-a menu with different seasons/years that we can click on and play with players from that season.

Massive improvements with the new update other than the fact that heading the ball will not work. Also the option to edit would be nice. The game is kinda broken til headers are fixed though.
