You know they won’t do this, they must be equal to the male counterparts otherwise people will get bored pretty quickly and go back to selecting Barcelona. People will get outraged no matter the decision.
They will probably bump up the stats a bit but fuck that EA has done that in the past. You can’t tell me in NBA Live 95 the fucking Pistons were able to beat the Bulls, I don’t give a fuck how deep their bench was.
you know the strange thing, i might have actually played it if it had the comedy female goalkeeping, or even play against female teams, now that would have been interesting
Well i guess it’s just following the rules we got here in the uk where females and males cannot play official mixed matches after the ages of 13/14, so no you cannot sign female players for real madrid and such, so i guess the chances of having mixed matches is out of the question
What i want to know is how would the female character fare against their male counter parts.
I am gonna laugh when people start claiming sexism when x female character doesn’t have great stats.
This is what I meant, if they don’t bump of the stats SJWs will call foul because nobody wants to play a team that would be outmatched by the lowest league 2 team. But then purest will also call foul for EA ditching their realism USP just to favour SJW (who I agree a loud majority probably wont play the game and don’t even play video games).
Equality? Does that mean if I scream loud enough that SF players should earn as much as pro soccer players, then it’ll eventually happen as a matter of “progress” or raised standards?
I aint being facetious. It’s a damn travesty that a bunch of sweaty people chasing after a ball and scoring 1 point in 90 minutes (if they’re lucky) earn much much more than a player who masters frame data, the intricacies of footsies, and the art of playing the opponent rather than the game.
Which social justice league do I sign up with to scream until this injustice gets corrected?
You act as though soccer players don’t spend years of their lives dedicated to getting good at the sport and being in physical shape in order to play at the highest levels.
Top FG players spend a fraction of the time that they do honing their art.
But if you really want to get a battlecry started, I suggest contacting @iantothemax. I’m sure he’ll let you start the “dialogue.”
When you break it down the inclusion of women’s teams is based off nothing more then tokenism.
As is the case of most sports, the women simply aren’t as good as the men. In the case of soccer women don’t play at the same level as men. They also don’t draw in as many people, they don’t advance and propel the sport to new heights of popularity and complexity so on what merit have women earned a spot in this game. Essentially it would be like adding a women’s team to madden.
Now if it was something like tennis it’s a different story since the women there have proven themselves a equal draw to their male counterparts. The inclusion of a women’s team in this game feels unearned and purely motivated by politics.
