Country specific rules implemented for league tie break. Now all countries except for Brazil have the following rule:

1) Goals scored – Goals conceived
2) Goals scored
3) Number of victories

And in Brazil:

1) Number of victories
2) Goals scored – Goals conceived
3) Goals scored

I know there are other rules regarding direct match between the tied teams and disciplinary criteria, but I we’ll stick with these rules for now.

Cheers!

Ok cool, thought that was perhaps the case. The new individual tactics look good though :)

For now you are able to setup individual tactics but they won’t have any effect during the matches. We’ll announce in the forums and remove the message when they start affecting the matches.

Our original idea was to display such arrows but we decided to take a more simplistic approach for now. Maybe we add then later.

Is it working yet because when i go to the page it says “This is still not being applied on the match”. Im not sure whether thats because its not yet in operation or because of some bug perhaps.

2. formation screen issues

the changes are working! just one thing: shouldnt be appearing any arrows showing what was changed? (for exemple: if i want the player to go foward left, an arrow would apperar in the screen showing that)

I agree with you guys but I have another solution planned for that: give the attackers the chance to move back if they realize they’re offside, which is more realistic :)

I totally agree, some teams plays with formation 0-6-4, 0-5-5 for exemple.

Hy,

I suggest that managers would have to put a minimun players in each part of the field.
I do that because some managers just play without any players in defence area and make with that a lot off-sides for the opposite team. This take of the competitiveness for the game, without saying that its unreal!

Maybe 2 players for defense side, 2 for the m iddle and 1 for the attack would be a minimum demanded player.

Thanks
Regard

Don’t worry Wakrat, these Individual Tactis are not being applied during the matches yet, we’ll make sure they’re working correctly by the time they start affecting the matches.

Abraço. :)

hello Gabriel!
when i try to change setings at the “Individual Tactics” page, they dont work. An exclamation mark appears saying that i must try again, I’ve done everything to change it (even used IE!) and nothing happened. I use firefox V.1.9.0.3. (i think its the last update). If you could fix this, i’d appreciate it!

abraço!

This is a known problem Pedro, but it’s good that you mention it again to remind us the urgency of that. We have some plans to make it easier to score on some situations and also headers may affect that when we include them in the match.

Cheers!

2. No Goals

In my last five games (and only ones in the game so far…:)) there was only 1 goal!!!!
Cup – Real Sociedad 0 Barcelona 0
Cup – Barcelona 1 Real Sociedad 0
National -Granada 0 Barcelona 0
National – Xerez 0 Barcelona 0
Cup – Celta Vigo 0 Barcelona 0

Is this normal? As I look to the League Table I really don’t see many goals… I prefer ties 5-5 :)

It is not predicted, but if a player has less skill points to improve it’s possible that he reaches his maximum before the 39 improvements. If a player has 100 skill points to improve and increase 3 points every time he will need only 34 improvements to reach his maximum.

1. Topic: General
2. Staff Departments - help

does every player has 39 times an improvement or are some predicted to have less?

1. Topic: General
2. Staff Departments - help

It is possible, but in the average they won’t. A player will have a total of 140 points to improve in the average, 20 per skill, so he needs to improve 3.6 points every time his skills increase to earn all 140 points after his possible 39 improvements. Of course some players will have less than 140 points to improve or you can be lucky to have a player always improving a high number of skills at once even without a level 10 department. In such cases you will be able to reach the player peak. Was that clear enough? :)

Cheers!

Here I have a young promising english player for you :

Nick McCoy
Age 20
English
Passing 73
Shooting 73

I need money so I want to transfer him.

Let me know if you are interested in him.

Hi Gabriel,

In an other topic you have mentioned something about coaches also effecting the players reaching their potential. Here is the direct quote".. Remember that the player may not reach his maximum potential if you don’t have a good coaching department. A level 4 department for instance should be enough to unlock half this potential."

So if a team doesnt have lvl 10 coaching department there is no way that a youth can reach his peak no matter how many games he plays?

Thanks in advance

JUst checking, my best one was like 70 if i remember correctly and i was able to get him like 76 at most….while other teams have players to 90+…no wonder it is hard to win from them in CL and thus we end up in a cirkel in which the german team always gets beat :S

2. Ranking crtiteria for teams with equal points

It’s still the brazilian system, Philipp. My intention is to use country specific rules on RubySoccer in the future…maybe we can use goal difference for now, I agree it’s more common that number of victories :)

2. Ranking crtiteria for teams with equal points

is it a big deal to change the criteria for the ranking in league tables? Status quo is, when teams have the same number of points the number of wins is the 2nd ranking decider. That’s not common, so why don’t change it to goal difference or direct-matchup?

I remember you said it’s the brazilian system, but i had look to the current standings in Serie A & and there’s no such rule active. Or am i wrong?

Hmmm, we have (or had) a bug entered for that…I thought it was a one time event but as we can see this is still happening in some very specific situation…

Thanks for reporting, Philipp.

2. 1 turn = 2 matches

20 Arsenal 1×0 Hertha BSC Berlin Lost Friendly
20 Leixões 0×4 Hertha BSC Berlin Won Friendly
