Navigation on the New Server is better. Transfer/loans pages load faster. In the formation screen, assigning players is much faster now. The fixtures page is the slowest one, about 20 seconds to open.

Cheers

We can see that information cheking the player’s previous team matches, but is to much work :P

I think it would be good even for the game, because managers would search and contract more players with less skills knowing they haven’t evolved nothing yet.

Lets hear other opinions :D

A friend of mine suggested that. I know it would be useful when buying a player for instance, but I have my doubts if not knowing it is good for the game. Anyway, let’s discuss that and see what everybody think about it :-D

Cheers!

Hi, I think it would be usefull to have the friendlies a player played in his history. There could be a filter to choose the kind of matches he played.

I think it is usefull when we search for young players on free transfer list we could see how many maches they played, friendlys and serious ones :D

Cheers

No Philipp, another goalie will be used to replace the banned one or, if no goalie is available, the available player with the highest keeping :-)

What Alexandre meant is the “best” available player no matter the position to replace. So in your case you had a banned midfielder and got a striker to replace him. That means your “best” available striker (highest shooting) was better than your “best” available midfielder (highest passing), if you compare the striker shooting with the midfielder passing. Of course this “best” concept is far from accurate and also that is not what you wanted, you wanted your formation to be 3-5-2 and that’s what’s gonna happen when we fix it.

Cheers!

it’s not that sytem picks the best player available, but that the system doesn’t replace the missing player at his original position … what if a goalie is banned? do the system steps up with a 3-5-3 …?!

Another controversial point Filipe, whether or not national teams will have managers. When the time comes we’ll see :-)

Cheers.

Makes sense Filipe, it will probably work this way.

If you implemt national teams will they have real managers? I think it would be great if the best managers could be at same time on their clubs and a national team.

Hope you guys don’t give up this one :D

It would be nice if national players can adapt faster and better than foreigners. So managers woul prefer to contract them.

If possible don’t change it this season, or some managers will have some problems. Me included :D

Keep the good work!

Understood Filipe :-)

You’re right, sometimes they accept these 50% reduction. We’ll have to work this out.

Cheers.

I came across this topic only today, but I have to say that the same thing happened to me, when I was trying to buy 3 players from Borussia Dortmund. So I checked Borussia’s page and… surprise:

3
48 Alex Touluca Manager Resigned.
44 Alex Touluca Manager Contracted.

The biography of this nomade coach:

Season Turn Team Event
3
62 Roma Manager Contracted.
61 Le Mans Manager Resigned.
55 Le Mans Manager Contracted.
54 Sunderland Manager Resigned.
49 Sunderland Manager Contracted.
48 Borussia Dortmund Manager Resigned.
44 Borussia Dortmund Manager Contracted.

…and his twin, Alex Foutura:

Season Turn Team Event
3
62 Banfield Manager Contracted.
61 Real Sporting de Gijón Manager Resigned.
55 Real Sporting de Gijón Manager Contracted.
54 Athletic Bilbao Manager Resigned.
49 Athletic Bilbao Manager Contracted.
48 Auxerre Manager Resigned.
44 Auxerre Manager Contracted.

Just to make sure everybody is aware. Cheers!

Gabriel Cesario he won’t accept reduce to his normal wage, but still accept a big reduction. I don’t know exactly how many, but for example in my last team Braga they accepted about 50% wage reduction. I think this is not realistic, expecialy if the players played almost every match with a good rating. If he has a good avarage rating and he plays many maches he shold not accept any reduction. This way we won’t offer unrealistic wages when the contract is made.

In your exemple, if the player has a good rating and he played most of the games he would ask the same wage he had (100,000). If he does not play he should accept a reduction, but not much, about 10%, so he would ask 90,000.

This way we would not offer that much (100,000) to a player which accept 10,000 and wages would be more stable and realistics.

Hope you understand my english :D

Leagues have names now, so instead of simply calling them Division 1, Division 2, Division 3, we call them by their real life names like Premiership, Serie A, 1. Bundesliga, SuperLiga and so on. Let us know if there is anything wrong with the names added.

Cheers!

I agree Philipp, contract clauses are on our plans, it will certainly make negotiations more interesting.

Cheers!

why is it that if one player of the standard formation is banned for a match by (red) cards the computer doesnt replace a sustitute in the same spot?

i have a 3-5-2, one midfielder was booked and i missed to change the squad myself. the match report showed that the a.i. brought a player in, but not as a midfielder but a sriker. so i played 3-4-3 & had obviously a big disadvantage b/c “i” changed the formation from 352 to 343 /normally 60-70 shots, this time 18) …

currently it’s the “brazilian” rule: the number of games won decides in first place.

I’m not a friend of too much limitations: neither transfer prices nor wages.

it’s a market driven component of the game. i don’t like the idea to to support minor teams with a cap (tranfer & wage) to have a chance getting 1st class players. where’s the challenge in that?

one way for smaller teams is to acquire underrated oldies & talented youths to improve and earn more money e.g via merchandising (Star player – we need the “*” from ssim ;)) and would be more attractive for players they are interested in. and do reselling to build a capital.

I’m missing the more “intuive” decising making of players: i guess it’s a lack of the current system: it’s just driven by numbers – the wage. it would be important to choose from a LARGER VARIETY OF OPTIONS when you propose to a player: further contracts details like the “big club clause”, first team “guarantee” (for 1 season), to cancel a contract after not winning a title or not qualifying for CL or if the club relegates etc. …

that would increase the chances of smaller: when they take a more risky approach. So wage would be just one out of several parameters to consider.
