Good to know that Wilshere can go beyond 87 overall.

Incidentally, here are some other young players (off the top of my head) at this stage for anyone curious as to how much certain players grow:

Mario Gotze - 87
Eden Hazard - 87
Neymar - 89
Ganso - 86
Lucas Moura - 89 (aged 19...)
Gareth Bale - 89 ()
Kieran Gibbs - 80
Aaron Ramsey - 80
Wojceich Szczesny - 82
David De Gea - 83
Daniel Sturridge - 82
Martin Kelly - 80

I got Wilshere up to 88 at 22 and Gotze too. I got Ramsey up to 82, I think a lot is off of time and form.

What a waste of money this game turned out to be :facepalm:

The decline from FIFA 10 to FIFA 12 has been both sharp and fast

Shit game tbh

So quick, amazing dribbling and can shoot.

Hazard 86 ffs? give me a break, I'm not complaining because I'm not on the receiving end of him but he's pretty overrated, should be 83-84 max

by BiasedMilanFan3 Thu Oct 20, 2011 11:20 pm

After winning the Serie A and Italian Cup with Milan I decided to ditch them and join Real Madrid

And I bought Lucas for $140,000,000

Almost got knocked out of the Euro League by mighty Derry County in the qualifying round...

Needed two stoppage time goals from Luuk de Jong and Pjanic to send me through on aggregate.

Then I get mollywhopped in my first group game against a pretty awesome Standard Liege side.

Career mode has vastly improved this time around. Love it.

by Guest Fri Oct 21, 2011 12:16 pm

I love this years career mode, it's really improving my all around game! I am in my second season with Borussia Dortmund, my team is really starting to come together.

I even have a youth player starting some games for me. I will post up my team later. This career modes is amazing and I'm managing to keep most of my squad happy.

by fatman123 Fri Oct 21, 2011 12:24 pm

just a few questions about manager mode:
1. is playe growth any good, cause in FIFA11 it was sh*thouse
2. i saw in a vid that they said players now regaied fatigue at different rates which forced you to rotate your squad, is that true? and if so how significant is its impact?
3. during the transfer window, can you make loan bids for players who arent on the loan list?
4. how long (real time) does deadline day go for?

<3

by Guest Fri Oct 21, 2011 12:28 pm

I didn't play Fifa 11 career mode, but I find the growth to be on point this year.

Depending on your schedule, you might need to rotate due to fatigue and if you decide not to, your players may find themselves injured more frequently.

I believe you can make loan offers for any players (you can even have a set price to purchase after the season).

Transfer deadline day is 10 hours (not real time), each time you hit advance you lose another hour. You basically get to hit advance ten times.

@TetraHydroC 10

Yeah, I agree but the loaned out players won't maximize their potentials. For example, I got Ryo Miyachi to gain 7 points in 3 years, while I loaned out Alex Oxlade Chamberlain for 3 years and he gained 1 point :facepalm:

So if you like and want to see a certain player progress, spread out the playing time instead of loaning him out.

by MJ Fri Oct 21, 2011 3:47 pm

***I should clarify that I DIDN'T loan out Ryo Miyaichi, which is why he progressed better.

by Guest Fri Oct 21, 2011 3:51 pm

Thanks for the advice. I tend to loan out youth players (Rating 50-60), I'll make an exception for speedy players, e.g., currently letting a RB (53 rating) play as my back up (79 sprint speed).

P.S. That green bar next to the players name means he has gained more than +1 (my bad)

by MJ Fri Oct 21, 2011 3:58 pm

Yeah and the age is a huge factor. I had a 16 year old who was a 68 progress 4 points from semi-regular playing time in one year while a 27 year old starter didnt progress for 3 years. So make sure that RB isn't that old.

by Jay29 Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:05 pm

The transfer market has gone nuts on my career mode. It's January, second season, and Newcaslte has spent a combined £72mil on Eden Hazard and Ashley Young.

Kaka, meanwhile, has left Chelsea to join Sunderland. Stoke have signed Mario Balotelli, while Agger and Carvalho have returned to Chelsea and Liverpool respectively.

My Arsenal team are still in all four competitions though, so it's no problem. The current team is:

GK: Wojceich Szczesny - 82
LB: Kieran Gibbs - 80
CLB: Thomas Vermaelen - 85
CRB: Per Mertesacker - 83
RB: Sergio Ramos - 87
CDM: Alex Song - 83
CM: Mikel Arteta - 82
CAM: Jack Wilshere - 87
LW: Gervinho - 86
RW: Theo Walcott - 82
ST: Robin van Persie - 86

And the rest:

Luckasz Fabiasnki - 79
Laurent Koscielny - 81
James Tomkins - 78
Andre Santos - 75
Cesar Azpilicueta - 76
Emmanuel Frimpong - 71
Aaron Ramsey - 81
Bryan Ruiz - 83
Marko Marin - 82
Park Chu-Young - 78
Leandro Damiao - 82

by MJ Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:08 pm

I sold Kos instead of dabbling to get him above 78 :O but I got Djourou to 82 at age 26.

Is it just me or do these transfers ALWAYS happen:

Kaka to Chelsea
Sneijder to Real Madrid
Di Maria to Chelsea
Pazzini to Man United

Little Jose Miguel is 17 years old (personally scouted him from Chile), he's 5'3 :lol!:

by ♠Ace Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:35 pm

what's some good way to improve player growth?
does growth happen during a season or at the end of a season?

I wanted to buy hazard during winter transfer, but he got too expensive cause he had 3 rating growth. Crying or Very sad

Just keep playing them, they progress during the season.

LOOOL I scouted Martin Pardo from Argentina....6'3'' striker at 17. Potential overall as high as 84. Subbed him against Liege and he struck the post with a thunderous effort...gonna love having him against the smaller sides along with Gianluca Caprari.

by RealGunner Fri Oct 21, 2011 6:26 pm

i scouted a midfielder from Argentina. He is 14. His potential is 93

wooooooahh. well it also depends on how much his overall is, because at age 14 the overall and potential will still rise.

the most I got was a 68 GK with 91 potential.
