To carry on from @RollsReus great work.. For the 9th year running, the Starhead Thread returns for this years edition of FIFA. This thread is consistently the biggest and most popular thread on this entire forum, having attained more than 1.7Million views in last year's thread. This, combined with an ever increasing hunger from fans around this world, shows how highly fans of FIFA value the topic of player faces within the game.
Since 2011, the Starhead Thread has been the mecca for news on player faces and a place for aesthetic fans to come and discuss all things face-like. Throughout the years, we have had a community of passionate fans. Some who have been members for years and others who are new to the thread. We are some of the most committed fans who play the game, but don't mistake our tenacity, it's purely a mutual love of the game and a desire for our voices to be heard. Our members are constantly looking for squeaks and leaks for any potential news from official teams and players.
Naturally we will have new users coming into this thread for the first time, who are very welcome to become part of the discussion. To you, we say that we are well aware that there's on-going problems with FIFA and that graphics can't be the main focus on the development team, but there is enough threads for these situations. This thread is committed to just one side of the title, something that has their own team for, so we ask that you respect our place and don't post for arguments sake. We respect your opinion but this isn't the place for it.
A resident of this thread, @VapexKarma, has a popular YouTube channel that he constantly posts top quality videos on. These videos showcase many different visuals that are that are present in FIFA, such as player faces and face comparisons from PES, as well as players who are in need of an updated face on FIFA. His channel has only continued to increase over the past year as he fights the good fight for our struggles! You can find his channel here
Lastly, there are rules that are present in this thread that you can find below and will need to abide to:
* This thread is for player face discussion only, for discussion of everything else to do with FIFA 18 please use other more appropriate threads.
* Please use the Off Topic section to discuss PES. A small amount of PES face discussion is allowed in here but only for comparison purposes. Anything else/excessive PES face discussion will be removed.
* We understand graphics aren't everyone's cup of tea. Please be aware that we also want gameplay updates and fixes but this thread is solely just for Starheads. EA have numerous departments working on different aspects of the game. There are gameplay-specific threads for you to air your thoughts.
* Please do not quote posts that include numerous pics, nor create quote chains.
* Please be respectful of everyone's opinion. Arguing for the sake of arguing will get us nowhere.
With all that being said, don't be afraid to join in with discussion. Here's to hopefully a great year!

Recently (23.4.2019), we have received new updated Bayern Munich scans in Fifa 19 and the vast difference from their old scan to their new one is quite evident, and why it is imperative you update the afore mentioned players! Here is proof of why on PS4 / XB1 we need updated scans:
DLC has been highly requested for Starheads in Fifa 20. @EA_Andy @EA_Cian
The Fifa Dev Team may also find the following Starheads Thread on Reddit of use: Link
Hopefully this year we get a substantial amount of starheads from wider leagues and clubs.
Bundesliga treatment needs to happen!!
You're welcome! I absolutely agree, I think the full Bundesliga treatment is a cert for FIFA 20, I have also added a few other sections on the OP like highly requested top players outside of the PL, La Liga and Bundesliga to be added, whether that be with their clubs or Custom faces DLC, along with players that are outdated..
Fulham and Huddersfield have been re-scanned in the last few weeks which all but confirms PL has been done again.
The inclusion of scans such as Goretzka, Finnbogason, Muto and Balogun, the database leak, plus images of players from Dusseldorf and Freiburg getting scanned (as well as the Frankfurt stadium picture) pretty much confirms a Bundesliga scan in my opinion (although I fear many will already be outdated).
Real Valladoild and Huesca were scanned (I thought they would have been added to Fifa 19 by now). I don't think there's any proof of a LaLiga re-scan yet, but it's expected.
Players from DC United and Montreal Impact have been scanned. Montreal stated on their website that they were one of six teams to be visited.
I know it's in good condition. Take care of her, @TeamExtreme17!
edit: I say that like I was the one to create the whole thing lol. Just having a joke.
An ajax and roma scan would be amazing some top talents
Maybeeee that's why we have a Kluivert face in Fifa Online 4? And we randomly got Alisson in Fifa 19 too..
Ajax deal only agreed in December Kluivert is a custom in that game nothing to do with the Ajax deal and a very poor custom at that like witsel in it Witsel should have a scan in Fifa 20
Both have links to Ajax & Roma though, i dont care if its custom or scanned as long as its not generic! Id welcome those Kluivert & Witsel faces in Fifa 19... Is Alisson scanned?
Great work! Can you add Draxler to the list of players that need an updated starhead?
Agreed. Both Roma and Ajax need starheads. Both have been neglected for too long. Zaniolo, Under, Manolas etc. EA please listen and scan these teams.
EA please update Julian Draxler's starhead. It doesn't reflect his real-life appearance and a player of his quality and potential is deserving of an update.
Don’t know about Allison I agree a custom is better than generic but customs are awful salah World Cup one and witsel And kluivert in Fifa Online 4 terrible needs to be scanned hopefully they will this yr
I'd think we should get Witsel if the Bundesliga is scanned.
Done.
Which makes it strange adding a custom for him in Fifa 19 if he will have a scanned face in Fifa 20.
Thanks for adding.
Yes. Any possibility that his Fifa Online 4 is actually a scan, but just low quality version? Looks good enough to use now anyway....if only they'd add it.
For fifa dev team it is a now or never situation the game is about to fail and a lot of players are gradually leaving this broken game.
Any new on this @EA_Andy ?
Is he and Kluivert going to be added with John Obi Mikel as he has a white face..
Draxler is far from being the most outdated. But its better to require any face than being silent. We might be heard some time.
Im shocked how barely no one has complained about the so called psg scan. Thiago Silva? Marquinhos? Alves? Meunier? Rabiot? Draxler? Nkunku? Kurzawa?
Lyon also need a full team scan. Fekir is so outdated its hilarious.
By the way https://mobile.twitter.com/ol/status/1034420829386362880?lang=fr I know its just for promotion purpose but some staff went to Lyon... isnt it a bit like stuff they did with german teams? Lyon scan in fifa 21? Haha
Obvs Roma has been mentioned above and I believe We got all rights to Italian top flight last year.Icardi getting random face upgrade in earlier patch.Giving serie A the same treatment as the Bundesliga would be awesome

You High? Meunier and rabiot got good scans
[/quote]
Loool alright I can just stop expecting anything from the game/community then.
Meunier and Rabiot are bang average customs. No one to agree with that? Meunier cant be a scan seriously.
Whats you mind about Ousmane Dembélé? Good scan?
Same feeling here... PL rescan has mostly turned into promoted teams scans. EA dont get top teams should be updated yearly. Id be tired of Pogba, Hazard, etc having the same scan from years ago...
Meunier is a custom from the WC DLC but Rabiot is absolutely a PSG scan. Dembele is also a custom from the WC DLC. I think its quite evident, just like they do with the PL, they only scan / give faces to generic players, which is why the whole PSG team werent added and also why Aguero / Lukaku / Hazard etc are all outdated even EA have gone back to Man Utd to scan Lindelof etc since. Theyre trying to give as many generic players starheads as they can, because their method takes FAR to long to add all the players theyve scanned..
I actually believe they do scan EVERY player whilst theyre at clubs though, but pick and choose who to add (ones who are generic first) because of the length of their process. Which is why i think they are sat on hundreds of scanned players (Sancho, Lingard, Zaha) but only add those to the game who complain on social media.. But baffles me why they dont release these missing scans over the course of the season as DLC?
Any chance of a Starheads Pitch Notes from the devs please? @EA_Andy
It doesn't take that much extra time if you're at a club already to just scan everyone. There's a much longer process needed to get everyone into the game though which is why it's not always possible to get everyone in that people are requesting.
That is absolutely understandable @EA_Andy but is there a way until EA can create these faces with a faster process they could add faces post release that they have scans for? Or hire more help? As Starheads are a BIG part of this game now, as this thread shows every year and especially as UT is all about creating a squad of the World's top players, if theyre sat on updated scans they really need to do everything they can to add them in to the game.. Heck i'd even pay for DLC (But lets not go there, haha)
P.S. They need to be adding these Witsel/Kluivert faces to Fifa 19 before Fifa Online 4 as thats kind of a kick in the teeth..
