If the server could serve the pages I want instantly, I’d be FINE with going through country by country to find players I want. I could just set up Firefox to open all those pages instantly.

It doesn’t happen that way.

Therefore, I want ALL the free transfers/transfers/loans on ONE page. Going through country by country… and having to take another step to filter for “transfer”, “free transfer”, “loan”, “all”… for every country??? I find it impossible to do that each morning before going out the door to WORK (yeah, I have a JOB… that’s why I can DONATE).

So, I think we need to find a better balance of “research required” in finding players… vs. time… vs. server load.

I WANT research work to be rewarded in this game. I also want this game to last for a long while… so I want to donate. I also want to be able to see/download all the info I need before I go to work each day. So I can continue to donate.

Give “donators” access to a page/spreadsheet/file of all the available players (transfers, frees, loans) in ALL the countries after each tick??? Seems like a fair trade of money for time to me.

Is that unreasonable? And maybe it will “encourage” some more people that CAN donate, to actually open their wallets?

good team, good country = good youths
bad team, bad country = bad youths

just like “real life”!!!

Honestly, I think the best youths SHOULD be concentrated in the best teams and countries (with the OCCASIONAL great youth for a bad team). That seems normal to me.

I don’t see any big problem right now.

I understand Jota’s point… but I see no problem with Athletico Madrid’s results this season. He has assembled a great team, he uses them intelligently, and they get great results. What’s the problem???

I’m up against a similar team (Liverpool) in the EPL.

Complaining about “unrealistic” results?… not me. I’m gonna figure out a way to BEAT that team. It might take me a while. But I’m getting there.

Because the team is SO good… that will only make it more exciting for me if I do beat them. I like having a high target to shoot at!!!

Yep, Gabriel brought up a good clarifying point. When I said best clubs, I assumed that you guys would think about first divisions and best countries. But It is good to make sure everything is perfectly clear.

cheers!

Wait a second, the youth quality has nothing to do with the team quality, it only takes in consideration the country and division of the team he belongs to, not if the team already has good players in the main squad. Just wanted to make that clear :-)

About the 98 keeper, it is a huge exception, as thorpedo said there are not much 90+ players right now. The manager was just very lucky to get this one.

Cheers!

Thorpedo, you are right.

But now you are talking about how the real world is versus how would you like our game to be. In real world, best clubs tends to have both the best players and youths. It is the same in our game. If you want your club to have the best players AND youths, you have to gradually improve your team until you reach that point.

cheers!

I can understand your concern. Very soon we will have a lot of extra stuff on match. In the meanwhle, we will see what we can adjust. But one thing we have to be careful about is not to use isolated exceptions as examples. I wonder if you guys would like exceptions to be ABSOLUTELY impossible in our game. It is fun to have the possibility of extraordinary things to happen, in my opinion.

I hope you can find motivation in our good number of recent and past achievements, despite the many things we still want to implement or improve.

cheers!

You always have star players and I think Cavazos is one of them. There are not that much 90+ players I think. But maybe it isn’t realistic that he is already an 98 GK at an age of 21.

I also have generated 3 very good youths.
Platania 96 striker
Di Curzio 88 midfielder
Priolo 87 defender

I think it’s a matter of luck.
But it strikes me that teams with great players mostly have good youthplayers too.

Cheers

How can we get “new players” with 98 value!!! I have never seen something similar in my players, it is not normal the high difference in the creation of players between teams, this give so much difference on adventage between teams.
This case is with goalkeeper, this value means not way to fight with the against team, no way to score.

Name Pos Age Kpg Tac Pas Sho Spe Dri Ctr Agg Sta
Franco Cavazos G 21 98 37 61 38 73 78 81 100 100

Regards.

Hi, at the begining the “logic” changed because the complains about the many goals scored in the match.
Now we can see on the spanish league the winner with 4 goals received in all the league. And no goals received also in the champions:
P W D L GF GA Pts
38 22 16 0 55 4 82

This absolutely unreal, in real life no team will receive only 4 goals in 40 matchs! No way, this makes the game without motivation to continue and progress.

Regards,

The rules we are talking about, Polat, is found in the following page of the game:
Team Setup >> Formation Strategies. In this page we can add rules about replacing players. These rules can be triggered by some events.

I’ve added a brazilian option in our home page. It has lower taxes and accepts credit cards and bank transferences. Hope it is ok.

cheers!

oh ok thats fine as long as we can do that to every tab like not just for positions. like you can do it for age aswell and pass, tac, shoot. i agree about finding players too easy but if you can do the others instead of just pos it would be perfect.

Cheerss…

Donations from brazilians should be a regular deposit into an account to prevent PayPal from getting a percentage.
You could give us an account number and the donators theirs, so you guys could identity the origin of the money.

We could donate R$10,00 instead of $US5,00.

Same here, 4 league matches ago: http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/match_report/94234

My best available player was a D, turning the 4-4-2 into a 5-3-2.
Cheers.

Just wanted to comment that the tick percentage is still not adjusted. For now it works but it jumps from 5 to 60% when all matches are played. We will change that very soon.

cheers

Sounds good Toni, it would be good to add the country information to the user, we currently don’t have it. :-)

I think it is good the way you are planning it, Danilo. But what about adding a country ranking? Can you see from what country the donations are coming from? If a few players from a few countries happen to take it as a competition, you could get a couple of more dollars in :)

Supercup sounds like an interesting ideia. Let’s see how can we handle that. About the international cup between the two continental champions, it’s definitely on our plans!

Hi, I agree with Hugo that and would also add, if possible, games between the champions league winner and uefa cup winner and maybe the international cup between the champions league and libertadores winner if not mistaken

What about a supercup in tick 4 (sounded like a good tick to me) between league winner and cup winnner or cup second in case of cup and league winner (same team)!? One more trophy, more $ to the game… And more fun too!!!

If it’s already implemented then I think I had a bug during the last leaguematch against Reggina (tick 108). I normally play 4-4-2 but Filagrossi (attacker) was suspended for this match and the cpu turned my line-up into a 4-5-1. The best available player was my midfielder Alvares de Oliveira.
I lost the match but it isn’t that bad because I have a hugh lead.

Cheers

Polat, you are using the transfer list tab in the countries, right? Because we have the search by position there.

We had a discussion about searching here, and the conclusion was that we didnt want to make the process of finding nice players too easy. The understanding is that this would eliminate the fun of finding them. But as Gabriel mentioned, we will have scouts :).

cheers

We have plans on that, they’re called scouts! Did you think you’d get that for free? ;-)

I’m sick of looking for players by searching every country. You guys think you can make the player searching system more specific were we can search players by positions, age, price, attributes, value etc. it would make life a lot more easier.

Cheers…
