    Re: MLS Reveals a New Logo and It's in FIFA 15

    The Logo features a half crest that is completely blank and all white, great job.

    Why would EA give the MLS, of all leagues, the same treatment as the Premier League when it doesn't even give it to La Liga, Serie A, or even the Liga MX which is still vastly more popular then the MLS?

      Liga MX attendance is such a joke. I have no doubt that folks love Liga MX, but if Dallas sold tickets for .75 or just gave them away, they could fill up Jerry World.

      Praising LIGA MX for attendance is like praising a porn star for hooking up, or a pro-wrestler for winning a match. The game is kind of rigged.

      Liga MX says they average roughly 22,000 per game. Of those 22,000 probably 6,000 tickets are sold at a price that would be comparative to other leagues. The other 16,000 are sold off at a significantly reduced rate, or just given away. Having high attendance is a vanity play by the Mexican league ... they just want the numbers, no matter how they get them.

        $$$. Does not matter to EA about popularity as long as they get paid. This would be a win win for both or any league willing to pay as the exposure MLS would get with the youth would be well worth the cost EA would demand.

          Because promoting a growing league in a hugely populated country with relatively massive amounts of disposable income could ultimately be in their best interest.

            But no-one on our side of the pond cares much about the MLS. Most would rather see La Liga or the Bundesliga fully licensed.

              If you think MLS (or any league) would be willing to go from receiving money for their rights to giving money to EA, you're crazy. And even if MLS decided to do that (they wouldn't), people would still end up largely playing European leagues because of the extra competitions and the lack of "true" MLS experience.

              You still wouldn't have an accurate US Open Cup (and the Canadian teams still wouldn't have the Canadian Championship) without adding NASL/USL teams. There still wouldn't be a CONCACAF Champions League, or at least anything but an incredibly watered down version with just MLS and Liga MX teams. The roster rules still wouldn't be the same (because they're so weird and arbitrary that not even Football Manager has been able to replicate them even with an employee dedicated to overseeing MLS implementation).

              And you can already predict what's going to happen to players who are sent to the new USL Pro affiliates when those start coming into play: they'll just disappear from the game.

              While I'm all for MLS having actual stadiums and more face scanning and whatnot, you're never going to have MLS recreated fully, and MLS is definitely not going to pay them to do it.

                I'm hoping EA replaced the lost Brazilian clubs with MLS in EA's fake Copa LatAM tournament.

                  Which is sort of the problem; no one on either side of the pond cares much about MLS, at least in comparison to the other international football leagues and in fact our own domestic sports leagues. But the way I see it, creating an authentic MLS experience within FIFA could help promote MLS by leaps and bounds, which in turn could increase the popularity of FIFA here in the States. (And yes, I do realize that FIFA is already very popular here.)

                  I love the LA Galaxy, I attend as many games as possible during the season. But the fact that they play in a generic stadium in FIFA kills it for me, just a bit. Imagine a modern game of Madden where the Patriots play at "Boston Stadium", or an NBA game where the Lakers play at "Hollywood Arena", it's just not the same. And when I get FIFA 15 I'm going to start an EPL season, because that's where I'll get the most authentic experience.

                  Granted, MLS needs FIFA more than FIFA needs MLS right now, not to mention there are far more popular leagues to consider. I'm not disputing either of those facts. But I do believe the increased exposure that would come with a full MLS experience in FIFA would eventually benefit both sides.

                    what did i say about attendance? lolol You know whats a joke is the way Liga MX teams continuly dominant MLS opposition. But to my point, i was talking about Popularity, which involves TV, not regional ticket sales. MLS higher attendance then the NBA & NHL, to your Logic, its more popular then those leagues. & i support my local club Orlando city went to 5 home games this year, Roma, Sao Paulo etc

                      exactly, and barely anyone in the states care about it. i actually go to games, i watch games, US Open Cup this week Seattle Philly, on goltv watched, all galaxy games, watched. NBCSN games, watched. ESPN broadcast etc

                      i love the mls, i play mls league in fifa, but its not in EA best interest. its no where near being one of EA biggest concerns. no where near.

                        & i wasnt putting Liga MX on La Liga level or any other top league, i brought it up cuz its an indictment on how far MLS still has to go. Popularity wise on the Global scale.

                          I'm loyal Timbers Army and pretty much play as the Timbers exclusively in FIFA, though occasionally I'll do a Budesliga career to get the international tournament options.

                          Hate the new logo but it is an improvement on the old. The club specific versions look better and in place on a clubs kits than the goofy/dated 90s logo.

                          I'd pay $20 for MLS DLC.

                          Also it would be nice if we could get custom chants back as I had made a pretty thorough Timbers Army chant pack and miss hearing them in my games.
