There is a good reason for that, the names and surnames lists are the same used by Soccersim :-D

And yes, you can help with that! I’ll contact you by email with more details. Anyone interested in helping with names and surnames for any country please feel free to post a reply here.

National players are not selected by their values but by their average skill formula, which happens to be the same used for value calculation, hence the coincidence.

We’re in the process of providing a suitable icon indicating a player is currently in the national team in the team players page. I guess we could use the same in the player’s info page.

You’re right about the economic aspects, Phillip, but I’m afraid we’ll have to put that on hold for now to avoid an over inflation.

I’ll soon write about our ideas for managing national teams.

I remember when playing Soccersim, I thought the Dutch names were often strange. Now with Rubysoccer I still think that way, especially the first names. I checked some of them with the First Names Database on internet, and they do not exist in the Netherlands. It also seems that sometimes names which would be normal last names are used as first names.

Is there any way I can help with this?

Great addition! But please add an icon to players profile and the (club) team players page asap. And maybe the clubs on the nat team players page next to the names.
I agree, the nat teams shouldn’t selected by $value, but by skills (for each position and the prefered system of the nat team). e.g. this one is in FT Germany’s goalie: http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/player_info/57795.
Clubs should receive cash for their international players when they play EC or WC – and the merchandising etc should increase a lot. In reference to that the “stars” from ssim will be good next enhancement.
.
thanks, mates!

I noticed the players are chosen by player value. I recently bought a good young player (Martinez) for 50M in fastticker. I found him in the national team of France. Normal since he has a player value 51M but is this his real player value or is it affected by the transfer.
Can for example a player with normally a player value of 15M who is sold for 40M be selected in the national team because of this transfer? His player value will be 40M after the transfer and will adapt slowly.

Cesário, tem como colocar a “TAG” de National Team Player em cada jogador convocado para podermos identificar?

Gostei muito das seleções, bem legal.

E o Tigre só prova ainda mais sua supremacia, não só na argentina, como no mundo inteiro.

Hehehe.

Abraço.

Another statistic: here is the ranking of teams in real life, based on results:

1 Spain 1883
2 Netherlands 1659
3 Brazil 1524
4 Germany 1464
5 Argentina 1288
6 Uruguay 1152
7 England 1125
8 Portugal 1062
9 Egypt 1053
10 Chile 988

I suspect the rankings on Fastticker (based on player averages) are much different: Brazil is probably first (weakest player 88 average), Netherlands much lower (strongest player 87 average). As Dutchman I must object of course ;)

Wait a minute, I think there is a good reason why national teams have mostly old players. Remember we have changed the player evolution system several seasons ago? It is now making a difference and top players are harder to find. The old players are from the previous generation, where they were more likely to become stars.

Let’s see what happens when all these old fellows retire.

You are welcome :-)

Here is the average on FastTicker:

Argentina 29.4783
Brazil 31.5652
Chile 31.9565
England 33.9130
France 29.4783
Germany 31.8696
Greece 32.3913
Italy 33.7391
Netherlands 33.1739
Paraguay 31.0000
Portugal 29.6522
Russia 29.4348
Spain 33.4783
Turkey 31.8261
Uruguay 32.6522

You may have a point here, players could age harder…or maybe automatic national team selection should take in consideration that old players are more likely to get injured and apply some kind of “penalty” when comparing them to the younger ones.

I don’t know how closely you want to have Ruby follow real life… where players peak around 27 or so. I do like the way the game flows now. But the older players probably should “age” harder.

Love the National team concept! Thanks for adding it!!!

This is a big feature so I thought it would be better to discuss it here instead of using the Improvements Discussions topic.

As a reply to the last comment there I would say I agree there are too many old players in the national teams, but that’s just because these are usually 100% developed, which makes them better. In the future we can have national squads for under-23 or under-20 players.

Thanks for reporting, Alexander. It must have something to do with the new filters for national teams matches. I’ll look into it.

Cheers.

I love the national team concept. Is it just me, or are there way too many old guys on the national teams?

Hi guys,
When trying to filter matches by type you are returned to team info screen instead.

Kind regards
Alexander

It is not fully designed so I won’t spoil it ;-)
We’ll give enough time for managers to apply once it is released.

Oh come on! If everybody goes way, they win and Rubysoccer loses. I don’t know if they are cheaters or not, but does anyone of those managers won some competition? If no, they are very bad cheaters. eheheheh, cheating and nevertheless, they can’t win….so must losers.

Come on Ilian,think it better, rubysoccer need’s player like you or me…just fair play

The statistics computer screen has been through some adjustments (still planing a couple other), and now allows you to save your presets.

I think I had been under 10% for a while at that time, though now I got it up to 13% thanks to better results (no losses in my last 8 league games).

Happy 3rd anniversary, RubySoccers!

National squads are out there. If you go to your countries league page you’ll see a National Squad tab which will take you to the countries’ national squad page. There is also a new National Squad competitions page under the Leagues menu.

For now national squads cannot be managed, but it will be possible soon. All the rules involving the national squad management will be announced when it’s ready.

There will be 3 competitions for national squads, starting next season: European Cup, Copa America and the World Cup! Players won’t lose stamina when playing for the national squad, but will gain some valuable experience points. Besides these competitions, national squads will play a fixed number of friendlies against each other, these friendlies are scheduled on season start.

Currently you’re not informed if you have any player who is part of a national squad, but we are working on it as well. No official club matches will happen at the same turn as national squad matches, so you don’t need to worry about your players being unavailable for being lined up in a national squad match.

Well, I guess that’s all for now, more exciting stuff around national squads will be unveiled soon.

Cheers!

Heheheh…this message is supposed to be sent whenever your performance goes from 10% or more to less than 10%, no matter what your previous decent result was…I know, it sounds really dumb in your example :D

-To the creators of Ruby Soccer, thanks! you guys created a good game.
-To my friends, thanks, I had a good time playing with you again.
-To the cheaters who got away and are destroying the game for honest managers (the cheaters are: Vinicius Ferreira, Felipe Maróstica, Félix Cardoso, Caio Oliveira, Flavio Machado, and more). These guys got away with everything. I suppose paying outragious sums for a 36 year old GK with 89 keeping skill is of course not cheating. Paying 40 mil for a 37 year old isnt either. Transfering outragious ammounts between themselves ONLY doesnt make it obvious that they are cheating.

I am leaving this game, because I see no point in trying to play an honest game and compete with my friends when I am surrounded by cheaters who get away with everything. I too have friends in the game, but I don’t cheat. We dont transfer stupid players between each other. We play HONEST.

RubySoccer is a really cool game, it’s largely based on SoccerSim. However; RubySoccer has one major flaw, the fact that unlike SoccerSim, it does not take cheaters serious. Ultimately, this game wont go anywhere unless it’s cleaned up. I refused to donate to this game for that reason. I donated $10 a month for ManagerSim. I’m off to other ventures and good luck to RubySoccer, hopefully you’ll get more aggressive and get rid of the cheats because it can bring you down, but than again, maybe you dont care. Either way, good luck!
