Other features include two-year loans, many realistic transfer budget enhancements and improved player values. Also, unlimited substitutions are permitted when playing these friendly games. Winning these friendly tournaments gives the player a reward in the form of a transfer budget boost. New friendly enhancements were added to the mode with players now able to pick a friendly tournament before a season starts. Another addition made to the Ultimate Team game mode, for Xbox players was the expansion of FIFA Ultimate Team Legends players to include iconic and historic names such as George Best, Ryan Giggs, Deco, Vitor Baia and Alessandro Nesta. Along with these interface changes, there were substantial gameplay updates introduced, including FIFA Ultimate Team Draft, in which players are given a choice of five random players for each position, and then pitting their newly-made team against others on a tournament-style format. Changes were made to the FIFA Ultimate Team interface, including pack management, the transfer market, squad chemistry, consumables, and swapping players. Improvements were also made upon the FIFA Ultimate Team. Doing this also increases the transfer value of the player. It allows the player to set a specific focus on which the footballer should develop on meaning that he will grow specifically according to the chosen focus attribute. These are in the form of skill games, a feature first added to the series in EA Sports' 2014 World Cup official game. Fratton Park, home of Portsmouth, was added to honour Portsmouth fan Simon Humber, creative director of the FIFA series, who died of cancer in 2015.Ī new Training Mode was also added to Career Mode allowing the player to develop footballers in the team of which they are managing without actually playing them. The game contains 78 stadiums, including 50 real-world venues.
