We’ve lost Parag from Bordeaux and Reimer from Juventus, we’ve lost other managers I can’t recall at the moment. We are going to lose more…aren’t we ?
You see, people get used to their teams, they also get very upset when they get fired because someone from lower league applies for their beloved club. I think this feature should not exist. Why should this game lose loyal managers ? And newcomers can become respected members of the community without kicking more experienced players out of the game.

p.s. in real life fired managers find new job, in Rubysoccer they leave.

Hehe, Gabriel, have you counted how weak should be performance to get fired ? I think in real life top managers can have about 1.5 seasons to prove they can stay.

My only prediction for this season is that I’ll be fired for bad performance.

Match engine enhancement: improved players tackling decision. At most 2 closest players will try to tackle an opponent at the same time. We expect this to reduce the “swarm” behavior.

Don’t be fooled by his 85 shooting, with high tackle for an attacker and incredible speed and dribbling skills Nicola is a threat to many defenses. His header skill is also a plus, specially now with better wingers usage.
Price is negotiable.

He improved from 82 to 94 in tackle (and the other attributes) the last two seasons, and jumped from 92 to 94 in tackle 3 games from the end of the official season. Given his tremendous growth these two years, he might still have some place for improvement despite his age of 24

Today’s most important improvement: goalkeeper injury.
That’s right. There is a 1 in 400 chance of a goalkeeper injury during a match. If you have only one quality keeper it’s better start thinking about buying another one.
p.s.: the current injury names used are the same for keepers and regular players, so they may not make sense. Please ignore it, after all, the important information is how many turns the player will be injured ;)

Country points obtained on CL or Libertadores are doubled. In other words, a victory or draw on these competitions are now worth twice as much country points as the same result on UEFA Cup or Copa Sudamericana.

When a loan was renewed the smallest asked period was used as the new loan period. For example, if I asked 36-144 turns the renewal period would be 36 turns, even if the other manager had originally loaned him for 108 turns. This will remain the same for existing loans, but for new ones the exact period will be used for renewal.

We have to find a balance between first team opportunity and money. I wish I had came up with a good formula already…I’ll raise this enhancement’s priority so we can work on it sooner.

Young and developing players available for loan, excellent for new managers and new country teams. Take a look!

Does that mean a certain team with a certain goalkeeper in Fastticker is also being investigated?

Filipe got it right, but the reason is cheating investigation ;)

I believe the player returned to his previous club. That means that it was an Admin to put him back there, it was some bug or mistake from the manager…

if this means the players are looking for clubs where they have more first team opportunity, i would welcome any such changes…
i feel this is better for the game…

Previous club: Lorient
Estimated Value: $1,620,800
3-Turn Wage: $9,738
Contract Begin: Season 12, Turn 78
Contract End: Season 13, Turn 78

he signed for 6k less at Lorient?

There was a slight change to the average player skill calculation that could explain that: players loaned out may be considered in the formula if they’re good enough. On previous season we considered a certain number of your best players to determine the average player skill of the team without looking at loaned out players.
Either this or you simply have CL opponents that have become stronger than you this season. ;)

so, for the last 15 seasons my board expects me to reach the final in international competion. Now, after winning the CL and WC in s23, the board suddenly lowers to “reach semi final” … why is that? less quality of players?
