What is the Longest Fifa Career mode you've ever had?

Not being tremendously into FIFA and only playing it sparingly (usually at the same time as playing Football Manager or a slow-paced PC game like the X series where you could have very little to do for 5-10 minutes but stare at the computer screen as you fly around space), my longest career is a measly 3 seasons long - started at Man Utd and managed to work my way up into getting a first team spot, moved to St Etienne as captain because I wanted more first team action, didn't like being the best player at the club by quite some distance and feeling like I had to be involved in everything all the time for the club to be remotely successful (St Etienne were rubbish - virtually every goal they scored, I either got it or had the assist. They very rarely posed any threat to other teams, even the worse ones in the league, if I wasn't playing too well), so moved to Spurs where I could happily rely on my teammates to be competent and able to grind out a result even if I wasn't at my best.

Although I didn't play it that much, I did find the advancement through the ranks happened too quickly, and I can see why you might only stick at a career for 3-4 seasons; after all, I was far from the best but even I started out as a reserve in Man Utd and by the end of the first season I was getting offers for first team roles at some of the biggest clubs in Europe but (foolishly) chose to captain St Etienne for a change of pace; if you're good at the game, unlike myself, I can imagine that this would only be accelerated (perhaps you'd be getting key player or captaincy offers at these clubs)

3 yrs seeing the same kits after every season really annoyed me and the generic faces annoyed me alot

i think it was fifa 11 or 10 i stayed 15seasons with real madrid and i got an achievement for hitting 15th season, every player i knew no longer existed

I keep playing the Fifa's until the game no longer works. Fifa 07, I played for like 2 years and got to somewhere ridiculous. I think eventually I got to the very end of fifa and EA had made it so that you cannot play any further than that.

Basically all my fifa games break because I play them until the very 'end'

Haha legend, are you talking about playing Manger mode to the very end or just playing the game itself. I usually get the new fifa whenever it comes out every year but would the old one stop working if i continually played it for like 2 3 years.

Fifa would probably do that on purpose so that you'd have to purchase the new game lol scams!

I did career modes. Also on Fifa 12, I decided to do a little 'experiment'. I wanted to see if this youth academy system was actually any good. So I took over Barcelona and sold all of their first team. I then got 3 scouts with 5 stars for judgement and experience. I then set up scouting networks in Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay and basically just got loads of youth players, brought them into the Barca first team and played them for 10 seasons to see if they were any good (I simmed all the matches for speed). When I got to about 10 seasons, the game jammed whenever I tried to load up my Barca team (although I could go on all my other manager modes).

True i get you, but once you reach around your 8th Season all the teams starting line ups have changed. Balotelli, Silva, Rooney, Van Persie would have all moved to other top European clubs so it does change.

I'ts also great when you move clubs and discover top players that they've signed. When i moved to Juve, not out of choice because my Sunderland Career came to an abrupt end because everytime i played it, it would freeze in December no matter how many times i started it again. My Sunderland team was on the verge of greatness aswell, was top of the league before it glitched on me!

But i'm happy i moved to Juve though, when i moved i saw Elia and Gervinho there and pretty much thought i could work with that, they had Chellini still and couple others. But when i looked on there bench after i had signed as you can only see the starting 11 when you get the offer, i found a few players i had been chasing to sign for my Sunderland Career so it's kinda exciting signing for team and finding out which players you inheret. When i signed for Sunderland in 6th Season they had just signed Moses who was an absolute BEAST from me until my 11th Season when i signed for Juve.

You should honestly try it, it's the best career i've ever had just move clubs if you get board of the kit or faces, move leagues etc.
