Sports games are made for sports fans nowadays, and such fans want real players, uniforms, stats and the iconic grass patterns and lighting of the stadiums.Can anyone who can afford this license actually make a fun soccer game? No. Will they? Also no.

So the fun sports games of the Neogeo era your average gamer could enjoy can't be done today, not even Neo Turf Masters.
Konami's eFootball is the best version of PES ever IMO, the only downside being it is F2P without training drills rather than a complete bought product. But gameplay wise at the highest skill level the football engine is spectacular, especially once you've fully developed your players' progress so their stats reflect their true self .Question is, is there a single football game this generation that could be recommended for fans of the genre? Nothing comes to mind for me, and the lack of Konami being in the game makes it all the more worse....
It has a rumour tag that makes including it in the title redundant.Title should be 'Rumor: 2K to make the next FIFA game'.
Pet peeve of mine, but it should be clear from the start that this isn't official or confirmed.
Did they ever patch master league into it?Konami's eFootball is the best version of PES ever IMO, the only downside being it is F2P without training drills rather than a complete bought product.

Reminds me of Sensible SoccerPixel cup soccer is more fun than ea's fifa, buy that instead!
Good,I hope everyone who enabled this shit with all the ultimate team garbage shenanigans gets to reap what they sow. I hope the standard edition costs 200$. Not like it would matter,these puppets would still pay what their corporate overlords ask of them.They're sure going to compete who's got more predatory monetization scheme.
Clearly only Ubisoft could save us!I'd love a new football game from a different developer, but not like this.
In fairness though, which other developer could make a great football game?

You say that but:
The league option against the AI has 95% of the experience of the ML IMO, especially as they force key games at harder difficulty(Legend) to make winning the league extremely difficult virtually no matter how good you are at the game and how good your squad.Did they ever patch master league into it?
So I can play a full league type mode yeah?The league option against the AI has 95% of the experience of the ML IMO, especially as they force key games at harder difficulty(Legend) to make winning the league extremely difficult virtually no matter how good you are at the game and how good your squad.
Football Manager 2024 but I recognise that that's a management sim and not a football game.Question is, is there a single football game this generation that could be recommended for fans of the genre? Nothing comes to mind for me, and the lack of Konami being in the game makes it all the more worse....
Yeah, play every game of a league against the AI, home and away, and earn league currency points you can use to sign players on loan for your league team - in addition to the players you buy and develop for your team used in all other modes - and use those points selectively against per game condition or stat buffs for all team players, or 3x points gains over multiple matches.So I can play a full league type mode yeah?
Thats not how it works. But as far as I know EA dont own any exclusive licences. Konami had an exclusive license for Juventus team, and EA even with Fifa licence could not use that team in the game, they had to make a team with the same players but with a made up team logo, uniform and name.And all those teams are also licensed under FIFA.
Holy shit dude, I downloaded this tonight and love it!!!! You little legend. I'll get my nan to milk your ballsYeah, play every game of a league against the AI, home and away, and earn league currency points you can use to sign players on loan for your league team - in addition to the players you buy and develop for your team used in all other modes - and use those points selectively against per game condition or stat buffs for all team players, or 3x points gains over multiple matches.
When you don't win the league, you earn more points by your finishing position to carry over to the next league season giving you more signing or buff uses. And you obviously earn different amounts of league currency points based on the difficulty you choose for a match, and the result you got in the match. You can even have the AI play for you, if you want to do it as a FM match.
Yeah the game even in its F2P format is crazy good IMO, and it completely boggles the mind how anyone is spending on FC24 UT and not playing this too, or instead of.Holy shit dude, I downloaded this tonight and love it!!!! You little legend. I'll get my nan to milk your balls

- Broadcast on the final two days with Spencer Owen as main host
Following the significant interest generated by the new approach to featuring different football esports titles, the FIFAe Next Gen event offers a platform for new communities worldwide to join the FIFAe ecosystem.
....
EA own all the team licences so I'm not sure what they're going to do
The issue is most folks want to play with Clubs. Yeah, World Cup is a draw, but people wouldn't get a game with a fictional Manchester Town or ersatz Arsenal.If they can make a game with superior on-pitch gameplay (not hard) then it's best for their first game to be a World Cup 2026 tie in.
This will avoid the club licence comparisons with EA and help get their foot in the door.
