      Understanding the Career Mode growth curve

      CareerScout compares a player's current rating against where they would normally be expected to be based on their age, position and potential. This helps show whether a player is developing ahead of schedule, roughly as expected, or still has room to catch up.

      Expected OVR

      Expected OVR is the rating CareerScout estimates the player would usually have at their current age, based on their position and potential. If their current rating is higher than this, they are ahead of their curve. If it is lower, they may still have more room to grow.

      Curve Gap

      Curve Gap is the difference between the player's current OVR and their expected OVR. A negative number means they are below the expected curve. A positive number means they are ahead of it.

      Growth Outlook

      Growth Outlook estimates whether a player's development may be boosted, normal or reduced compared to their expected curve. Players below their expected curve may grow faster, while players far ahead of it may slow down.

      Peak Window

      Peak Window shows the age range where players in that position usually reach their highest development level. For example, wingers tend to peak earlier than goalkeepers.

      These values are estimates based on Career Mode development patterns. They are designed to help compare players and identify good long-term signings, but actual growth can still be affected by playtime, training, form and injuries.
