It looks like all of the teams featured in this year's MLS season will be in FIFA 12.

	There seems to be a bit of confusion around FIFA 12 and MLS. To clarify: All teams featured in this year's MLS season WILL be in the game.

As a Whitecaps fan, this tickles my fancy.

Never really paid attention, but has this been a recurring problem or just in 11?

Yay Union!

Good! The rumors were out of control. Montreal should be in 13

Great that the teams are in, but how are the players rated? I'm sick of seeing MLS players consistently underrated ingame because the league has that stigma of being inferior. No, it's not EPL or the Bundesliga...but on paper MLS is more talented top to bottom than all but about 5 or 6 leagues in the world, and certainly falls on par with other second-tier brand name leagues like Eredivisie.

To compound that, the whole rating system in FIFA is screwy. Speed is universal, yet if a player doesn't play in a top league he'll never have higher than 75 speed ingame. Maybe other parts of his game are still very raw, but speed needs to still be high. Same with shot power - even bad players can have a cannon, but you wouldn't know it from FIFA. It's a far too simplistic way to represent the individual talents you see on the field, really in any league in the world.

(btw Lets go red bulls)

Slow your roll now. I like the MLS but hey are no where close to being on par with the Eredivise. You look at what would be considered the second tier leagues which is anything besides La Liga, Serie A, EPL and Bundesliga and MLS is towards the bottom. MLS isn't better than the Dutch, French, Portuguese leauges. In fact just looking at the North and South American leagues the MLS is at best fourth behind the domestic leagues in Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico.

This is great news , now what i would also like to see them say is that they have doubled international teams as well at the LEAST. Especially African Teams - Nigeria , Ghana , Ivory Coast...Just to name a few , and my favorites.lol. In all seriousness though , It would be great to see more international teams instead of having to go back and play Fifa World Cup 10 to use some of the teams I want.
