FIFA Ultimate Team 15: 20 Ultimate Wishlist Features It Must Have

5. Skill Moves And Weak Foot Upgrades

In Fifa, players have a specific star level for their weak foot ability and their skill moves. This dictates which skill moves they can pull off and how good they are at shooting on their weaker foot, which are obviously both pretty vital stats. In Head to Head, EA can alter and change these levels suitably but in Ultimate Team, thanks to the database set up at the start of each season, they're set in stone. It doesn't help that EA has a poor track record with judging players' skill levels. Mario Balotelli, known for his trickery and quick feet, only has three star skill moves in Fifa 14, limiting him to only a handful of moves. Fellow AC Milan player El Shaarawy has fallen from five stars to three in the space of three games €“ the outcry was so big that EA changed his skill moves in H2H modes, but he's still limited in Ultimate Team. These examples will probably be changed anyway, but it would be good to see EA change their database setup to allow these changes to be made when they arise. It would also be interesting to see in-forms receive upgrades to these stats; it would certainly increase the value of many of them.

4. Wager Matches

Wager Matches (or Pink Slips as some call them) have grown massively popular on the YouTube circuit, thanks largely due to the highly competitive nature of the matches (and the angry outbursts from the loser). Wager Matches involve players placing their high value cards on the line in a winner-takes-all match and just about everybody has been getting in on the action. It's certainly a feature that would be popular if implemented It wouldn't even have to involve players; it could be as simple as a 'buy-in' tournament where the winner takes the entire prize pool. Taking it a step further, EA could make Wager Matches viewable with a spectator lobby or implement streaming over Twitch thanks to the built-in DVRs in the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It's definitely an opportunity for EA to encourage the ever-growing competitive scene in Fifa.

I have an addiction to achievements, a craving for new bands and a dream to become Captain America. I once finished second in a Mario Kart 7 tournament so I'm kind of a big deal.
