Player development is a crucial aspect of Career Mode in EA Sports FC 24, but it can take multiple seasons to reach a player’s full potential. However, with the right strategy and some careful planning, it’s possible to accelerate this process and achieve significant improvements within a single season.
One method that dedicated players have discovered is called the ‘Loan Glitch’, which can upgrade a player’s potential status and increase their value in the transfer market. We’ll explore what the loan glitch is, how to execute it, and its impact on player development in Career Mode.
What is the Loan Glitch?
The Loan glitch in FC 24 Career Mode is an exploit that allows players to rapidly upgrade a player’s potential within a single transfer window, bypassing the need for multiple seasons of development. It involves a series of steps that include loaning out a player, saving the game, recalling the player, and monitoring their potential status.
Typically, players develop their potential over time through regular training, match experience, and other factors. The glitch offers a shortcut to this process by allowing players to manipulate the loan system to achieve significant potential upgrades in a much shorter time frame.
While some may view this as an unfair exploit, others see it as a clever strategy for accelerating player development and maximizing a team’s potential within a single season. Regardless, the Loan glitch has become a popular topic among Career Mode enthusiasts looking to get the most out of their players and gain an edge in the transfer market.
How to Execute the Loan Glitch
Here are the steps to execute the Loan Glitch in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode:
- Step 1: Identify a player that you want to develop.
- Step 2: Loan out the player to another club.
- Step 3: Save the game.
- Step 4: Recall the player from their loan spell.
- Step 5: Check the player’s potential status in the squad hub. If their potential or value has increased, move on to step 6. If not, reload the saved game and repeat steps 2-4 until their potential or value increases.
- Step 6: Once the player’s potential has increased, loan them out again and repeat steps 2-5 until their potential reaches the desired level.
- Step 7: After achieving the desired potential upgrade, recall the player and keep them on your team or sell them in the transfer market for a higher value.
It is important to note that the Loan-Recall glitch is a useful tool for rapidly developing those players under the age of 21, as their Potential Status Tags are still visible. However, players over the age of 22 can also benefit from this glitch, as their value can be used as an indicator of potential growth.
Even players older than 25 can experience an increase in their overall rating and a revival of growth through this glitch. However, the glitch is only effective for players aged 28 or younger.
Impact on Player development
The Loan glitch can have a significant impact on player development in Career Mode. Typically, developing a player’s potential from “At the club since” to “Has potential to be special” would take several seasons of consistent training, match experience, and growth. However, by utilizing the Loan glitch, players can potentially achieve this upgrade within a single season.
By successfully executing the Loan glitch, players can rapidly increase a player’s potential status, allowing them to reach their maximum potential much faster than they would through traditional development methods. This can result in a substantial increase in the player’s transfer value, making them a valuable asset in the transfer market or a key contributor to the team’s success on the pitch.
