How well is the World Cup implemented into Career

Anywhere near the level of FIFA World Cup 2010?

I didn't play FIFA World Cup 2010, so I can't compare it to that, but I played through the 2014 World Cup with Portugal and enjoyed it. If you're a sucker for details though, you may not love it. There was nothing that made it seem like it was in Brazil, or in any real specific location.

I still found it loads of fun, just as an awesome add-on to a mode I already enjoy. Ended up losing 1-0 to Germany in the semi's after not conceding the whole tournament.

Cool. Thanks. Not all the nations are in I assume?

Am I doing something wrong? It is July 2013 in my career, I am an American playing in Mexico. There are no WC qualifying matches on the calendar, nor are there any WC games showing next Summer. Will I eventually get the chance to qualify?

Yea same here. Im in Aug 2013 and nothing. Went ahead and simmed to 2014 & it shows nothing other than friendlies for the U.S. - My defender (74) has been playing in friendlies. This is offline player mode. ??????

I don't think qualifying is available for US or Mexico, as they're the only 2 CONCACAF teams in the game. I think you're just in the World Cup automatically. Somebody here posted something about there being a tournament with the South American teams, but I can't confirm that and I haven't seen it anywhere else.

Thanks Jazz. From reading it looks like they couldn't get the rights to the Concacaf. Not sure how they will determine the entry to the Confed cup in 2017, ( no way I'm simming that far lol). From the Wiki looks like there is the Copa's for the South American teams.

@ohioscottzee
The World cup/World Champ. won't show up on your Calendar till middle of MAy 2014. You'll also recieve a notification if your player is on the team.

Thanks, sincerely, for the help. I always enjoy these games so much more when I understand them
