##### **Playstyles vs Attributes**

##

We’ve seen lots of discussion recently around PlayStyles vs Attributes, so we’ve put together a poll in the [Official Discord Server](https://discord.gg/easportsfc)  #polls section to gather your feedback.

To kick things off, we’d love to understand how effective you feel PlayStyles are compared to the impact of Attributes. We’ve also opened up a [PlayStyles Discussion ](https://discord.com/channels/1164979454557290546/1466463885463785472)for anyone who wants to share more detailed opinions. Based on your feedback, we’ll be following up soon with a deeper dive into potential improvements and changes around this topic.

##### **Career Mode**

In an upcoming update when beginning a new Career, you will be able to choose how willing players are to negotiate as their contracts near expiration, with the new Contract Extension setting under Transfer & Scouting. Set it to Normal where factors like playing time matter, or Lenient where players are more open to signing an extension.

##### **Ultimate Team**

We're bringing more ways of training and upgrading your club into the game. Coming soon, you’ll be able to start Training Camp Evolutions directly in Ultimate Team, while they'll continue to be available through Companion App.
