FIFA 19 Career Mode: 5 Big Worries From The Beta

3. It's Not Fixed Season Fatigue

One of the biggest issues with Career Mode has always been that it's not given players much incentive to keep playing after a season or two of playing. Once you've won once, there's not really much else to do, with players difficult to lure away, financial dominance sure to follow, and the same stadiums and teams featuring throughout.

After two seasons, transfer activity also begins to take a hit. The giants of the game buy literally everyone, and there's not much else to do. For FIFA 19, then, would it not have been a great idea to give managers more objectives? Why not work in stadiums, sponsorships, and kit customisation into the mode?

Unfortunately, from what we've seen in the Beta, it doesn't look likely that FIFA 19 will do enough to retain interest in the mode after a season or two of playing. It's still the same stuff as before, with a new lick of paint.
