Hello all,
All of you are speaking about my team, Atletico de Madrid… :)Thanks a lot for your kind words about my team! ;)
I agree Jota, more or less, even when I’m the owner of that good goalkeeper and defense.You are right, Jota, when you said that it’s quite unreal to receive only 4 goals in 40 matches… But this is my strategy at this moment. I have the best goalkeaper of this game (fast ticker), so that I’ve improved my defense to avoid the oportunities of the opponent team and I use counter attacks when I can…
So that, have a look to some of my matches and you’ll see that I receive only a few goals because the other teams created very few opportunities…
This is the reason because if you have a good goalkeeper, you can use him as the key player of a good team and you’ll finish in the first places of the league.
Best regards!
Javier.
Hello,
I’m not sure if this is ok, but is becoming really difficult to make goals in this game… Have a look to the last round in the Spanish league, fast ticker, we had scored only 6 goals if you sum up all the 10 games of this round! I think this is very unrealistic…Best regards!
Javier
Hello,
I’m another ex-managersim and ex-soccersim manager…Javier Palacian.
Ive looked and ive got it installed. Ive got windows 98 tho and none of the downloads on that site are for windows 98 :(
To make sure you have Java installed open your Internet Explorer, click in the Tools menu → Internet Options → Advanced tab and look for Java in the list of settings. If you find it, make sure its checkbox is checked. If you don’t find it you can download it here . Look for Java Runtime Environment.
Let us know if you need any help.
Apologies accepted. Individual Strategies are already being planned and will be part of the game very soon. In fact, individual strategies sounds like an interesting name, we were thinking how would we call this screen :-)
With this new feature you’ll be able to give players individual orders when your team has the ball and when the other team has it. Orders will be things like go forward, mark your zone, go back, play your position and so on. This can make a big difference during the matches.
Cheers!
i know i already said bad things about the game and i’m sorry…i know it is difficult to manage this game and specially with low finances, but at the time i was really upset.
i just wanted to leave a suggestion to improve the game…
i think it would be nice if there was “Individual Strategies”.
this would make us give personal stratagies to all players and play differently.
for example, play with a offensive strategy, but say to the defenders to stay back..something like this…
and thats all…
best regards…diogo…
I think ive got Java installed. It was a long time ago when i installed it. Im using explorer.
Do you have Java installed? Which browser are you using?
I think the game has some cyclic trends…you must be patient or try to bribe the referees… :P
Last season i end up the italian league in third, but i should have ended in second..but it isn’t because of this that i’m here.
this season i just have draws…i dont know why because i have better team.
i’m in 15th and if it continues like this i’m gonna be despromoted.
At first i though it was from the strategy, so i made one…and then other…and then took it off…and still tha same results.
So i made other tactics, and then more tactics …and nothing…
Some matches against weeker teams…i deserved to draw and loose…but just some times.
just for example of this unfair results i would like you to see the next matches bellow:

http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/match_report/112917
Those are some examples…other games i played " worse " by the report, but i had better team and i deserved to play better that i played.
i would apreciate a review and comments about this subject.
its a big change from 3th to 15th…
best regards…diogo…
How do you get the match replay to work? When i click on the link to view the match all i get is a big grey box.
ex-managersim for a couple of years. Won an FA cup in fulltest (I think…) with Wolves… from 1st division yet! Did get them up into the premier, and competitive… but tough to crack the top teams there.
Was Amiens in… Eurotest?… finally developed some really good keepers in that game… figured it out towards the end there. Maybe just because the better managers were leaving.
Joined here early… and left. Wasn’t loving this game initially. Came back after a while… and MUCH better now. And continuing to improve.
FWIW I really like fast ticker… but having problems developing the love for medium tick.
we are planning a big package__ of what we consider CRITICAL improvements that we want to implement in the shortest amount of time possible (the lines in red). The match logic is not there because some of them will deeply affect it. If you guys have any other suggestions that you consider critical, please let us know.
cheers!
Alright, thanks for taking care. Really appreciate your persistent effort on improvements.
There were some players with wrong information about where they were in the evolution path, so I had to make an update to their information. What seems to have happened is that some players stopped evolving sooner than they should even though they were still gaining experience. With my update your player may have evolved to the last stage at once, reaching his maximum potential. From now on I expect the evolution logic to be back to normal, but I’ll keep my eyes opened to fix anything strange before we reach this situation again.
Cheers!
wow! Gabriel started investigating player leveling yesterday. Lets see what we will find out.
cheers!
I just want to add that i find this improvement mechanism strange in some ways … like: matches in league should give a bigger boost than friendlies and friendlies against strong players more than playing against a youth team …
this happened in fast ticker last night:
The player http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/player_info/4291 (age 24, DC with 85 in tackle) improved within 1 turn from 68 to 88 in passing – 20 POINTS !!!! … and he increased without playing a match !!!
hmmm
i know what happened. things will go back to normal very fast. sorry!
cheers!
We still need to figure out what happened, but things are back to normal now, let’s see how the next tick goes. Sorry for that, guys.
Cheers!
Medium tick is stuck at 95%. Fast tick is stuck at 0%.
I logged on this morning to find both dimensions are still updating. Looks like the medium tick “bar” is nearly completed, but stopped. The fast tick is in “update”, but the update “bar” hasn’t even started.
it was away again for a few moments due to translation tests :). but it is really back guys.
cheers!
woohoo. the forum is back.
cheers!
I’ve started to write a draft of the starters guide in our empty wiki. You guys can see it here . Those of you who have some time and would like to contribute, please do. If you’re not familiar with wikis don’t worry, it’s really simple, just create an user in the wiki and you can start editing everything! We and those familiar with wikis will certainly help you! But if you want to contribute and are still uncomfortable with all this wiki talk you can always send me or Danilo the text you’d like to add. After putting together a good starters guide we can start working on a more detailed help.
Cheers!
Well, a friend of mine picked up a team and quited because he couldn’t understand how to play… I disagree, the game can’t be that confusing but it was his opinion, and he was serious!
Perhaps the starter guide, a beginners assistant, a manager for dummies, would help…
Maybe some sort of starters guide and / or help screens would be useful.
I think many managers will come back if they see the improvement. And probably the number of countries at the moment will be the main point why managers left. I also know at least 1 manager who left the game because he was fired after inactivity. Maybe 1 week is a bit less. I know there is an holiday option but I think many managers doesn’t know this…
Cheers
Excellent :)
Thank you Gabriel.
Don’t worry Carlos, the “2 turns left” appeared due to the price change. Every time you change the player price there is a 3 turns wait so that managers have time to see your change in the transfer list. He won’t negotiate with managers offering less than the price you asked and any manager bidding on your player will receive a message when you change the price.
Cheers!
