i think that the teams should´nt allow to left the good players leave for free. see what is happening in sporting – portugal. he had a great team and in one turn he loose 3 fantastic players (all to bayern, a little suspicious) to free tranfers. a great team is now a che@t team.

ps: about the bayern coach…no words.

I want to state that I am not in favor of agent fees, at least not huge ones like managersim had. I really think better (and more realistic) solutions are in changing the way the team’s board allows a team to sign free transfers, and in how a player chooses which team to play for.

The problem in Turkey is that we are usually able to find decent free young players instead of raising ours. When more countries are added this is likely to change since the competition for good free players will increase and our young ones will become more interesting and useful.

Good luck with your player, let me know if you ever build up a star whose career started at Sivasspor :)

@Admir M: I still read the forums and access the game even when I am not developing anything new ;)

Danilo said everything I would say about game development, so I have nothing to add. About the agent fee suggestion I feel we will probably have to add something like that. And also the player personalities, this one we already had in mind.

A little bit much freaking out here, but this certain is a problem. I was thinking that while it might be ideal to charge fees for free transfer, that doesn’t accurately represent the way soccer works. Maybe if there were a more complicated algorithm, instead of just accepting the highest offer. For example, I can’t imagine some of his recent guys actually choosing his team, given all the competition for playing time they’d have. Maybe even add in player “personalities” so that some players want to play for a winner, and more heavily weight playing in top league, or on a top team, some weight playing time, some weight money, some might weight wanting to play for their home country. That might give a little more variety, and make people feel like they don’t have to pay the max allowed salary.

The other thing that could be fixed is the max allowed salary. There’s no way the board would allow a coach to rack up that much salary. Should be a cap of 2-3 times what a team thinks they can earn in a season, as they don’t want to go broke paying their players. Then, as you start approaching that limit, they get more stingy with what they allow you to spend. Could also factor in past sales of players over the last year or two to allow teams that wisely develop and sell players to spend more.

calm down guys, rubysoccer is not dying. it is just like you mentioned: this is not a paid game and, unfortunetely, we can’t prioritize it. but we do plan to continue investing free time here – when we have it. since our move to another country, things have been hectic! but that should not persist for long and we will start updating rs again. we have to get this game to a “mature level” before any of us have kids :). After that things will be much more difficult.

we do have some things going on now. mainly about the match engine, because we want to improve it before going to anything else. we might release some other minor changes before that is out, though… Let’s see what we can do, once we get some free time.

In my personal experience, I have been manager of America-RN since season 30, at first I did not care about Youth players and all I wanted to do was Win, Win, Win, but then I realized that I managed a team in Brazil, the best ranked nation in RubySoccer, and that, meant that My youths players had an advantage over any other country, Now I am not focused so much in results but I am focused in developing Youth Players.

In 7 seasons, I have had 25 Youth players start their career in my youth Squad, out of those 15 have been fired, making it 10 players that have been given a chance to develop and play in America –RN, this does not mean that the 15 fired players did not have the skills to play, it just meant that it was not what I was looking for, good quality players were let go such as Getafe’s Jardel Lima and Roque Leite, Portsmouth’s Jessé Guimarães, among others.

The Players that have been raised from my youth system are:

Keeper
Jeferson Torres (23)

Defender
Deolindo Carmona (24)
Aluisio Noronha (17)

Midfield
Pascoal Vieira (22)
Rogério Castelo (25)
Wellington Anjos (22)
José Rodrigues (18)
Elivaldo Carvalho (19)
Ivã Gaspar (19)

Forwards
Santiago Trindade (21)
Américo Moutinho (19)
Humberto Lobo (26)
João Maciel (22)
Etevaldo Guerra (24)

With these players in a few season, at full development, this investment will pay off, I also think that development from Youth academy works and it is Fun, now every time I log in I do not care about the score of the last league game, all I look at is if there was an improvement in my players.

also, I think that Turkey does have the potential of creating great players, the problem is that the local teams do not want to spend the time in developing youths, take a look at Özavci Harun I got him from the transfer list 3 seasons ago, he was without a contract, he had low to decent stats, but now he is an above average player in comparison to all the Turkish players and he is only 20, dont be surprised if he turns out to be the best Defence player from Turkey in a near future.

Hi im playing this game for 4 seasons, and im asking if its possible to change the free transfer process. To prevent stupid guys like Bayern muchen’coach to get all fuking players who are avalaible in free transfer..U could put a fee to get the player like if his value is 18m u have to pay a fee of 5 or 6 m to get him….. i know this game need some changes but free transfer sucks in this game

I think that to develop a team from your own academy only would only work in the top 4-5 countries. In countries such as Turkey you would probably get one superstar and a few decent players in the whole country. Hence it’s not worthy.
On the other hand, from the scouting I have done, in France alone you have some 30 players who have come out in the last 3-4 seasons who could easily form two teams to play in the CL final :)
That’s why I have been hiring players heavily from France. The current squad has 11 French players, 7 Brazilians, 6 Portuguese, and 5 Spanish

That said, the youth development is perhaps my favorite feature of the game. It’s simple, but realistic. It always surprises me how only a handful of managers really make use of it.

It is ok for the value to decrease sometimes, specially because the estimated value calculation formula is based on real transfers, so if the average transfer value is lower now than it was before players value tend to decrease, even youths.

After 3 seasons with Toulouse I made 2 seasons an half in Greece (winning one championship) then went for a half season in Argentina, but I finally came back to France and Toulouse a club where I invest a lot of my time and energy before.

I always pushed french players there and youths!

The result is great now : 6 players from the starting XI are from our own youth Academy!

Toulouse is not a top team in France but I want to continue and develop my project of building a good team and insert sometimes young players from the youth academy or young players I bought before.

In my starting XI I have 6 players from the own academy, 3 experienced players from other clubs and 2 players who joined the club when they were still U18.

What about you???

Stadium capacity is also supposed to limit the amount you receive from sponsors. I will double check that to make sure it is working as intended.

For me it’s 1000: $5.46 million

What the freak is the point of upgrade. Unless you have more money that you will ever need, it’s a waste.

Deception at Guimarães
Another early elimination of the Portugal Cup for the club, for the second consecutive time we were not able to reach the final, lets just hope this can have some positive influence in the league now we have less matches to play…

Presley Duarte leaving?
At the 3rd season being second choice for the manager Filipe Silva, Duarte may finally leave the club. The price now asked may be appellative for some of the strongest national and international teams and speculators already talk he can be leaving for the rival team Gondomar…

Hello. Just signed up here after finding the site when searching for ManagerSim on Google. Now a year and 2 days after the last post, I’m adding a comment :). I played SoccerSim/ManagerSim almost from the start and was sad when it finally died. I’ve been looking for a decent online footy management game ever since, have tried several but they always fell well short. Hopefully this will be the one :). I still have numerous screen shots I took of SoccerSim that I look at occasionally hoping that it will one day return. Reading through this, I recognise a lot of your names, I hope you’re all still on here a year after the last post.
