As a popular football simulation game, FC 25 has added a lot of new game content and mechanisms for Players to play after Update in order to give back to Players better. The most distinctive and innovative one is undoubtedly Career Mode. As a new game mode of EA FC 25, Career Mode not only provides a simple gameplay, but in fact it can be said that it is a small in-game system that brings a more holistic experience to Players. Therefore, this also means that although Players can get more FUT 25 Coins by playing this Mode, there is also more game information and mechanism content to understand. Based on this, we will introduce you to Teams worth choosing in Career Mode and the related Team gameplay. How To Choose A Team In Career Mode? With the addition of women’s Teams, the number of Teams in EA FC 25 can be said to have reached an unprecedented level of richness. Therefore, it will become more difficult for Players to choose a Team that is strong enough for their own game style in Career Mode. In order to let you experience the feeling of leading Team to win the game in Career Mode more quickly, the following are the five Teams we recommend for you. 1. Coventry City As one of the three Championship clubs added to the game this year, Coventry City can be said to be your ideal choice when picking a Team, especially if you want to strive for outstanding performance in Prem, this Team is definitely worth having. Among Teams of the same Level, Coventry City’s Transfer Budget makes it competitive, and Board Expectations are low, meaning a play-off push in Season one will go down a treat. 2. San Diego Wave As one of the women’s Teams introduced, San Diego Wave not only has beautiful jerseys and pink dresses in Career Mode, but more importantly, their Transfer Budget is also very good. In addition, they have many strong Players, including five Players rated 80 or above, such as Canadian Keeper Kailen Sheridan and Aussie CDM Emily van Egmond. 3. Napoli After two years of exclusive use of other games, this Italian Team has been fully licensed again this year, making it a competitive Team in Career Mode. In particular, Team’s powerful Striker Romelu Lukaku has attracted many Players. In addition, Napoli has signed many new Players with powerful strength this summer, such as Billy Gilmour and Scott McTominay. Potential Serie A glory awaits. 4. Paris St Germain If you have enough FC 25 Coins and want to win League at a Canter without any effort, you can try to use Paris St Germain Team. Because there are many talented Players including Ousmane Dembélé, Gigi Donnarumma and Marquinhos. There is no doubt that many well-known and powerful Players make Paris St Germain itself valuable, but if all these Players are in your Team, you will definitely stand out from all Players participating in the game. 5. Bromley Because of the relatively low Transfer Budget, Bromley has its own appeal. However, its board expectations are also low, so Players will have more freedom when building a Team. You can gradually reorganize and manage Team by introducing some group Players in order to lead Team to achieve excellent results in 2027-28 Season. About Tactical Presets After you choose Team you want in the game, the next thing to do is to choose the appropriate Tactical Presets in Managerial Tasks list. The game will provide you with 7 Tactical Presets templates. No matter which one you choose, your Team will be adjusted in tactical details according to the characteristics of the template itself. Among them, Standard is a relatively balanced and comprehensive template, with no obvious advantages or disadvantages, and will notice the overall situation more. Wing Play, on the other hand, focuses on your Wingers. While Tiki Taka is all about possession-based short passing. Gegenpressing, meanwhile, revolves around the high press and direct Attacking. Park The Bus is a more defensive-focused strategy, while Counter Attack lets your Team sit back and be ready to Attack at any time. Kick and Rush is more of a first-line strategy, relying on Team’s physicality to perform. After choosing the right Tactical Presets for your needs, you can hire Coaches to implement your chosen philosophy. However, since you can only give a fixed salary to your Coaches in the game, please consider carefully and choose the most suitable Coach. Each Coach can receive a five-star rating in different areas of the selected category, including Attacking, Midfield, Defending, and Goalkeeper. The better they perform, the greater the impact on the Player’s attributes throughout Season. If you are going to use them, just make sure Coach you choose matches your Tactical Presets and puts them in the corresponding category to maximize their effectiveness. The above are some guidelines for selecting Teams and Tactical Presets in EA FC 25 Career Mode. If you want to learn more about FIFA 25, you can enter iGMeet Discord.

To win in EA Sports FC 25, you need more than just a flawless tactic. It’s also important to master the various new features, especially compared to the previous FC 24, EA has added a lot of new features in the upcoming update to improve the player’s gaming experience. So, in this guide, we will introduce three key new features to help your team compete with the world’s top teams! FC IQ First of all, FC IQ introduced in EA FC 25 has completely revamped the game’s tactical system, in which team tactics, player roles and in-game intelligent tactics give you more control than ever before about how your team moves and plays. So, success in FC is no longer just about putting the best players in a certain position, but putting the right players in the system you want to run. You can focus on improving only one player who is the most suitable, instead of always investing in the best players and avoiding wasting more of your hard-earned EA FC 25 Coins. With FC IQ, team tactics are modernized at both ends of the pitch, making your teammates smarter both on and off the ball. What’s exciting to us this year is that FC IQ can be used to easily emulate your favorite tactics. For example, you can set your team to a more fluid, balanced formation, rather than just the traditional 4-4-2. Because a 4-4-2 formation can feel static or chaotic, you can set your team to a more balanced formation that alternates between a 4-3-3 and a 4-2-3-1, which is close to what Ancelotti saw when he coached Madrid. And as you know, Real Madrid has always dominated. It’s really special! FC IQ is also fundamental to the gameplay of all modes, making team tactics and individual player roles key to your team’s success. FC IQ will also affect core systems in Career Mode related to Transfers, Scouting, and Youth Academy, meaning that team building and development goes far beyond OVR. In the club, the biggest impact of FC IQ is in customizing team tactics. Club managers and lobby captains will be able to select, create and customize tactics, and choose player roles for their teams. These tactics will affect AI behavior, which has been a challenge for clubs in the past. FC IQ gives players more control over how their team is set up, but most importantly, they can control how their AI teammates play and how they position themselves. This means that even if you are just a single player, you can lead your team to better implement your best tactics and win! Player Roles In addition, the developers finally realized that they can’t just update team tactics to make the game feel real. It also depends on the players being used appropriately in the system, which is perhaps why they introduced Player Roles to FIFA 25. EA Sports has also built an out-of-game AI model to help you determine which Player Roles are suitable for players in FC. Choosing the right role means you can unleash players in new ways, and each role can have multiple focuses. A “+” or “++” means that the player is either highly accomplished or world-class in a specific Player Role. This means you can assign the appropriate role to suit the player and your strategy. To give you an idea of ​​how your team is playing, you can view player activity maps, detailed descriptions of each Player Role, dynamic summaries of tactics, and even how your team is performing with and without the ball. And, when you need it, the game will provide in-game tactical advice based on the current match situation. You can even change your team’s tactics and focus using D-pad. If you find the best tactics for you, you can also try out tactic-specific codes and share them with your friends. Goalkeeper PlayStyles FUT 25 is a world-class football simulation in every sense of the word. Not only have they used volumetric capture to get more real-world moments and bring them into the virtual world, but FC 25 also provides players with real moves, real goals, real play styles, and of course, real celebrations for over 19,000 players and teams. PlayStyles were a tremendous success in the game last year, and EA is building on that success. In FC 25, they are adding new Goalkeeper PlayStyles to the game! Plus, there’s a lot more to get excited about, including new Skill Moves, professional fouls, visual enhancements to overlays, full-body AI mimicry, real moves, and more. In short, mastering these new features will help you develop the best tactics that are more suitable for your team and lead your club to the top.

Are EA players waiting for the official release of FC 25? Some time ago, EA officially announced that FC 25 is scheduled to be officially released on September 27, 2024. So far, a lot of information about many games has been announced, but the most concerned by players is Career Mode. And Career Mode in this new game has added many new features, including scouts, tactical settings, customization, and more in the game. EA has publicly stated that most of these changes come from ideas in the player community. These changes will expand this Career Mode for mid-level managers and players in the game. This guide will introduce you to some of the new features in FC 25 Career Mode so you can prepare! Women’s Career Mode With the addition of women players in FC 24 Ultimate Team, players have been looking forward to whether they will see the same in FC 25. Obviously, the answer is right. FC 25 gives you access to players and teams from the five most popular women’s football leagues on the field, which means you can use these “Field Roses” to enhance your Ultimate Team. The leagues currently announced for you to play in the game are Women’s Super League, NWSL, D1 Arkemma, Liga F and Frauen-Bundesliga. In addition, UWCL will also appear in Career Mode, so you can lead your team to European glory. FC IQ FC 25 has added some much-needed tactical changes - Player Roles and Team Tactics, so that you can use Work Rates and Player Instructions. These fall under the purview of FC IQ, but it’s important to note that although it will appear in all game modes, it is most suitable for Career Mode. With this new system, you can assign different roles to players and create custom tactical setups more effectively. For example, if you want to play a standard 4-3-3 formation, which requires your CDM to move into defense, you can assign your players to the center back position. Similarly, if you need to strengthen the midfield defense, you can also have your midfielders play higher up the pitch using the half-winger position like a senior number 8. However, it is important to note that the success of your players in these positions depends on their familiarity with the position. If they are not proficient enough, you can spend some FC 25 Coins to hire a coach who fits your team’s tactical vision to help them improve their attributes. Live Start Points The most interesting part of Career Mode is Live Start Points, which will start a new game based on your real-life season. These starting points will be updated once a week, and the main data will be taken from Premier League, LaLiga and Ligue 1. It will include league rankings, results, transfers, statistics, suspensions and other data. For example, the newly emerging Ipswich won the championship in GW4, so you will take over the team at their peak and try to lead them to glory again. However, if Everton is currently in a relegation crisis, you will also take over at this low point and find a way to get them out of the misery. Live Start Points will help you discover more of the most promising teams or players in the world of football, and the ending of each story is entirely up to you. Unfortunately, Live Start Points will not be enabled at the official launch, but will be added as a patch in the future. We can look forward to it together! Icons Cards In Player Career Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you were the icon in the football world? Don’t just dream, FC 25’s Player Career Mode will make this idea come true for you! You can play as your favorite idol in the game, and have all the statistics, game styles, and player positions of these idols. You can play as your favorite idol, choose a club you like, and finally create a history that is exclusive to you. This feeling is simply great! As of now, Andrea Pirlo, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Kelly Smith, and Thierry Henry will appear in the normal Career Mode. David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, and Ronaldo will appear in Ultimate Edition. Youth Academy Revamp There were a lot of issues with Youth system in FC 24, but this will no longer be the case in FC 25. You can send your scouts to 160 countries to search for outstanding young players in various countries. In addition to this new feature, you can also ask scouts to look for up to four positions and three focus positions. This will greatly reduce FC 25 Coins you spend on scouting, while still finding some excellent players for you. As for young players, you can now directly participate in their development instead of just renting them out for a season as before. This is done through the new Rush Mode integrated into manager and player careers. You can also hold a tournament every two months and let your young players play 5v5 games. This way you can very intuitively understand their current overall rating and subsequent maximum potential rating to decide whether to invest a lot of money in their development in the future. Player Origins As the name suggests, with the addition of Player Origins in the game, you can learn about the background stories of this player, which will shape the personality of this player and are closely related to his strengths or challenges. Player Origins includes Clean Slate, Great Expectations, Climb to the Top and Return to Glory sections. You can also create your own story by clicking on Custom Start option. You can freely choose the age, skill level and personality type of the players. This will help you more effectively control the development of a particular player. These are some of the new changes in FC 25 Career Mode. We look forward to seeing you on the field on September 27th! Have fun playing!
