Answers:

1st: No, players development is the same on oficial and friendly matches.
2nd: Yes, but we’ll make injuries more likely to happen on tired players though.

Cheers.

That’s a good question Ricardo :-)

I think it still worthy, you have enough time to enjoy your player before we implement the “old” logic. In fact, without this logic he will still be able to evolve.

Cheers.

Don’t worry LeeHamo, we don’t expect to reset it so fast as we did. In fact we’ll only reset if we have a great change that requires it or if the things get too messed up. And when (and if) we do that, we’ll try to keep the mangers on their teams.

Cheers.

I’m almost sure Samir was talking to the quality of the game portuguese players, not the real life ones :-)

Anyway, I’m not here to defend him, I’ll let him speak for himself…hehehe.

Cheers.

p.s.: if you applied for a spanish team on MediumTicker we’ll fight for the title, I’m managing Zaragoza there ;-)

Don’t worry, next reset won’t happen so soon :-)
I agree with you Tiago, lower rank countries have the challenge to improve their countries over time.

About the current gap between the countries, it is smaller than what we had on Beta 1 and Beta 2 to make things more interesting.

If most of you guys feel this way I’d have no problem in restarting the game with countries “all the same” regarding players skills (which would influence starting money as Samir pointed out).

Cheers.

Yes, for every country manuel. The country skills were initialized based on the country ranking, that’s why Portugal has the worse players. What is important to mention is that with dynamic country skills the countries tend only to be more balanced, as the startup situation will be the greatest difference allowed between all countries.

Regarding attendance the difference will hardly be noticed, and the teams who are in good positions on their leagues will probably get full stadiums. About your 15000 attendance in the cup, that happened because we’re in the first rounds of the cup, the attendance increases as we move to the final stages.

Cheers.

Just one more thing, 17 years old youths already start a little bit improved compared to 16 years old ones, that’s why they do not evolve without playing a few matches.

Nao tem como transferir a equipe pra alguém Luis, o jeito é se demitir e deixar os tecnicos competirem novamente já que nao tera tempo de cuidar do time.

Abraço.


There is no way to transfer to team to someaone Luis, the only way is to resign and let the managers compete again as you won’t have time to take care of the team.

Cheers.

They do, we made that slower because players were reaching their maximum too fast.

Yes. Basically the 16 years old players are the only ones that start on level 1, with no experience at all. 17 years old players already have some experience and a little less to evolve (but still a reasonable potential), that’s why they need a few matches before increasing their attributes. Non youth players that were generated in the beginning are already around the middle of their evolutionary path, so they need to play a little more before evolving.

Also, there were some changes to how much the player skills go up when they evolve. This value went from 3-5 to 1-3. If a player evolves 3 points, these points will be distributed among the attributes where the player still has potential to evolve (a single attribute can take all the 3 points).

In Beta 1 and Beta 2, the players were reaching their maximum with a few matches, that’s why we decided to change the system. Personally I think it is much better now, but let’s see how it works in the long term.

Cheers.

Looks like a bug on friendly invitations :-(

Thanks for reporting.

I’m not sure if there is any player with such high rating on this start, but if not there are probably a few (not as much as we had in Beta 1 and Beta 2) that will evolve to these high ratings. All generated players have some potential to evolve (of course non youth players have less potential and will evolve slower).

Cheers.

Countries are not all the same but the difference between them and the top player’s quality has decreased. The order of quality is the same as the country ranking you can see in the game. Regarding different continents, well, the first south american equals the first european, the second south american equals the fourth european. The country base values for each skill will be dynamic and based on country performance on international competitions over time so you may end up with a country who generates good defenders and poor strikers, or fast players but poor midfielders, and so on (or a country that is great on everything or poor on everything), but the distance between the best and the worse country won’t be more than what we have in the startup (at least that’s the plan).

A little bit confusing but I hope to have clarified things :-)

That’s how Libertadores works right now:

-5 top teams from Brazil and Argentina (no spot for Cup winners)
-4th and 5th places for each country will be drawn into a preliminary phase and will be paired in a two-leg eliminatory
-the 2 winners of the eliminatory phase join the other 6 teams (1st to 3rd places) in the quarter finals

A similar formula is used in Sudamericana, Champions League and UEFA Cup.

When we have enough countries we’ll have the group phase in all competitions.

Cheers.

If we ever do that again we’ll consider the ideia of preserving managers in their clubs, even though the players and divisions won’t be preserved probably.

Cheers.

I’m sure a few managers would like to be in your place LeeHamo :-)

Yes, if me or Danilo click on “Fire Manager”…mwahhahah!

Just kidding, we won’t do that without a good reason :-)

For now that is the only way to be automatically fired, but as soon as we implement the board you’ll have some goals in the season, if you don’t accomplish them, you may be fired.

For those who have taken a team in the first MediumTicker tick we’d like to announce that all players (except the 16 years old ones) have alredy advanced one level due to some wrong data we had. Because of that the next level up for those players will take a little longer. That won’t happen o FastTicker.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Alexandre: the european ranking was taken from here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_coefficients , from the “Ranking for 2008-09 UEFA competitions” table.

smithers: Holland will be added next time we add more countries :-)

We deleted Beta 1 and Beta 2 and created two new dimensions LeeHamo. Don’t be sad, it will be fun!

Yeah, I noticed that yesterday, I was just too tired to look into it :-)

The missing screen won’t have much information until the next season anyway. Thanks for reporting!
