I have to agree, it seems like the cpu in fast tick also have the “spending big” bug…
it is a great thing let the humans have the fun
please donot change the source unless i sell my rubbish player for a huge profit :)
Seems the changes were not so small after all… But hey, Davison will say this is a great thing :D

No human manager team would pay 29M for this guy and CPU team are fighting for him.
i have a question regarding how they are calculated?
seeing my players performance ratings overs the seasons, often makes me ask some questions…
Suppose two midfield Players A and B have skills average of 88 and 84 respectively. So, theoretically player A is a better player according to the stats. Lets say they play together in a match and play equally well…
Suppose both players score 1 each, have equal number of passes and accurate passes, tackles and accurate tackles and so on.
Then,
just curious… i personally would want the ratings to display how they played in the match regardless of their skills average…
hehehe
Glad to hear that. Seems the improvements weren’t small after all :-)
small improvements, you said on the last statement? sorry but cpu teams are crazy on the market!!
All players are for sale for the right price. Also players who aren’t on the transferlist. Send me an ingame mail and we can discuss a transfer.
Take a look before you are to late ;)
CPU buying behavior is still being worked on but it should already be possible to notice some small improvements in the market. A couple bugs were also fixed on this logic, they pretty much made the CPU teams make some dumb decisions regarding defenders and old players. Give it some time and let us know what you think!
Cheers
cant pay for these things when the financial aspect to the game is poor, the income teams get is very unrealistic and the transfer market is also unrealisticly over priced, the cpu teams no longer buy players , youth dont develop even with 10 coaching
i think a benefit if anything should be a prediction of youth development like when you pay for vip in xpert11 you get forcasts of how much a player will improve or potential
but like i say , cant really afford a 32 let alone a 35 player roster
im having issue getting profit with just a 21 player squad and good attendance and giant stadium
the game needs to be fixed
Fantastic scouts!
Philippe Provost last season,
In his career with Strasbourg he has played there for 21 seasons and has played +900 official matches, scored +900 goals. His average is .99 goals per match. he has been ligue1 top scorer in 9 different seasons (13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 22, 24, 25, and 28) and has been French Cup top scorer 6 times (14, 19, 22, 25, 28, 30). It will probably be hard to be included in the list of all-time best players of Ruby Soccer, but I think this might be a player to consider. I just hate seeing him retire, do you have any player that will retire soon,that you are really going to miss on your team?
Stadium expansion
“RubySoccer is and will always be a free game.” it says on the donations game, and that’s good. However, I woulnd’t mind if the developers would try to get some more donations to cover the costs of the game. A way to do this would be a model where you can pay for small benefits in the game (as is done in some other games).
Who would be willing to pay for small benefits? Who objects against this idea? Also important, what benefits?
What I can think of is a higher squad limit. 32, or 35 maybe. A lot of teams don’t reach the limit of 30 anyway, but for those that do, it might be nice to have a way to get more players anyway.
Any other ideas?
I think RS should create a game world and implement everything Davison suggest, that would be interesting to see… :)
Seriously though, it doesn’t work like that, does it.
Game dev takes time and this very project is no different from any other.
You do not have to talk about youth system specially, these are the areas that are most important in such games:
1- Player Development (yes youth is players too so it goes there)
2- Economy in the game, Country ranking is not the same thing, do not get confused
3- Board/Manager interaction
4- Challenge/Reward system in the game
Do these 4 and you’ll have a potential candidate to a great game, then the fifth is the community.
Just look at games like Hattrick and ManagerZone, they started small and grew with community, backed up by companies with money behind it. Having a guy or two doing this as a hobby is no longer an option. No one stops you from trying though.
I suggested to Danilo and Gabriel to ignore much of the whining going on here on the forums, everyone wishes this or that like they are sitting on Santa Claus lap, it will end up consuming much of the limited time these guys have.
Developers need to chose a path whether they will have a small world paying some monthly fee to play or go very big with thousands of players (like hattrick, managerzone), and all they get is whining about this and that. Maybe both (different types of games etc..) as well.

Wow! Something weird happened. FastTicker had its season tick recently and the competition were generated fine. Nothing we can do at this point but wait for next season :-(
It is really supposed to work this way. During the group stage the attendance is not that high, if you check the other matches you’ll see they have attendance between 30k-50k. If the team is doing well in the league the attendance is definitely higher than that.
Just to complement what Filipe said: players use all skills depending on what they are doing (passing if they want to pass, dribbling if they want to dribble, control if they are running with the ball or try to intercept the ball, etc). The player skills do not influence his decisions during the match, i.e. a player with passing higher than dribbling will not pass more often because of that, this particular decision depends on the player position and your passing frequency and distance tactics.
Cheers
been saying this for a year now and back then i was given shit for it and now look where we are lol
i fucking told you all this would happen
notice how many managers have got up and left the game and how thin the countries are now told you that would happen too
10 coaching and stadium enhancements are a bunch of bullshit
and the youth are shite and dont improve after entire seasons of playing with 10 coaching.
this issue has been neglected for too long
Can it be that there wasn’t an international competition (European cup / Copa America) for national teams this season in mediumticker?
My team Spain only played friendlies.
Grats! And Emmen, last year second, is now going back to the Eerste Divisie.
Finally promoted!! Together with AGOVV.
I think/hope we will be able to compete for the EL spots next year :D
Anyone?
PSV is selling some young players for up to 78% discount on the player value.
Thomas Hyett 21yr Value 7.8M, price 2.8M
Francisco Beltranejo 21yr Value 12.5M, price 4.5M
Sergio Mastroeni 21yr Value 7.8M, price 2M
Jan Prinsen 20yr Value 4.4M, price 973k
Take a look at http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/team_players/636
In the World Cup you must exceed the expectations of the board to continue in the job. This was done thinking in a 4 year cycle competition so managers wouldn’t keep the jobs forever… It is common a national team change manager after a cycle even if he accomplished his objectives, only if you exceed the expectations they will renew with you.
I think this probably should be changed as the cycle at the moment is just 1 season, maybe have 2 seasons to exceed expectations, if you dont do it in the second then be fired…
I think something really stinks with the jobs at national teams. In the fast ticker I signed up to manage Croatia. The goal from the board was to advance in the European Cup to certain level. By the time I signed up, all the European games were done, we only had 1 friendly and World Cup matches. We won the friendly and after that upset Netherlands in the first round of the World Cup in penalty shots. Our next opponent was Brazil, much better team than us. We lost 0-1 and I was fired for bad performance? “We can’t stand any more of your bad results”? For real? That’s when I decided to check on other teams. It looks like a national team manager is fired immediately after the very first loss, regardless of the level of competition, which stage the loss occurred. Teams losing in the final of the World Cup/European Cup get their managers fired immediately. So, one simple question – why?
I know I’m starting to look like the Devil’s lawyer but I have to disagree again about some of the things you say Jota. The youth system is the same that allowed most of the top teams to success in the game, and it is still possible to start a team from nothing, the managers you mensioned are the clear example, Sly, Dirk, Charles, Vaughn, Amac, François and others (me too :D) have started teams recently and if you look at them they all start to look great, and all of them will be fighting for their leagues soon. I can understand if a new manager have a hard time figuring how the game works but you have been here for as long as us so just because the game isn’t as easy doesn’t mean we should make it dumb easy… Giving prises for international qualifications and matches would have no help for new managers in new teams, on the contrary, the stronger teams would have more money to offer for good players… Weaker teams would be even more poor… I can agree with prises if they are based on teams expectations, if the board wants the manager to avoid relegation and he manages to get an international spot sure, have a prise for that and improve his team, the same with lower division teams…
Completely agree!
coaching level 10 = deficit
deficit = selling the few young player coached
= impossible to improve for new chances
= only possible to crap and get a rich team not made by you or getting bored
