I don’t see at all how this helps to fix the current cpu behaviour.

Congratulations Dirk,

manage to win the Amac is really a difficult task, you’re in a country with excellent managers as Amac, Felix and Marostica … the Argentine championship in this increasingly competitive

cheers,
Julio

I have to admit the star system is something i definitely miss from SS/MS days…

After 3 seasons with Racing club I succeeded to beat the incredible Boca Juniors. The double is for Racing club this season.

It’s time for a new generation so I sell all my A-team players for cheap prices. 2 of them are Argentinian internationals.
Take a look.

maybe taking away player value is a good thing. It should be replaced though with stars or something simular. If older players remember back you could have three silver/gold stars depending how well your player was developing. We could change this to 5 stars, obviously starting with none when they are youth players then getting one silver, two etc etc then moving onto gold. Hope that makes sense lol

there is no such thing as estimated value, it is calculated depending on how skilled a player is and where he plays, maybe nationality etc, but clubs know what their players are worth depending on what they cost etc..

A more realistic value to show would be the last transfer price. For example player is worth 10M but was transferred for 20M, the value is 20M, if you agree or not that is a different thing and doesn’t really matter.
Yes, if he is worth 20M but transferred for 10M then the value is that, that is undervaluation. The board/club should oppose selling a player for less than he is both if it’s not absolutely necessary. Board would also object paying overprice and whether it is overprice or not can be determined with what the new player will bring to the own club, is it worth the cost?
Maybe having a separate transfer budget would restrict overspending but at the end the manager makes the good/bad calls.

I think having separate routines/code for human managed clubs and computer managed clubs is a must to make the game world more interesting, same rules can not be applied from one to the other.

Player value should be removed completely.
No player in real life is walking around with a price tag, but the club and manager know his value.
It should be pretty interesting thing to see, how people would value players..

Good idea Dimitri.

The market is impossible.

Maybe add a simple rule for computer managed teams: don’t pay more than player value?

exactly Filipe, too bad one can buy only one player/season/manager.
You are doing great job on finding great players, I would buy whole team from you and some few more other managers good at this as well.

I am worried that this is no good for the game and will make people lose interest in the game even further.
Making too much cash available is going to end up messing up things but it’s also good to research what it could lead to.

One thing SS/MS was good at was exactly that, having just enough money to make it really realistic, having too little or too much is not good, it has to be balanced, it will not happen by itself or as a kind of miracle, it needs to be put in formulas and calculated.

I’ll probably invest some on Portuguese bonds, I’ll make a fortune with interests only :D

Agree about the second part, they’ll start complaining again when they waste all the money and end with a team not as great as the others… People forget that good managers also can make easy money now, and they know how to spend it well :D

anyone seen any interesting trends?

it looks like it’s a golden opportunity to buy some kind of players and wait half a season and then sell them, for double or more the money you’ve spent.

Some real live stock development, perfect for people appreciating farmville too ;)

Not complaining, it’s just funny how people never complain about unrealistic things as long as they gain something, no?

inflation, huge inflation to be specific… The last market boom of stupid CPUs made the avarege prices rise so its very understandable now players are worth more, in economics we say the nominal price of the player raised, yet his real value is the same :D

Hi, what is going on with these?
I have player not increasing stats, but increasing 20 million in value in just 1 tick?

How come?

the whole thing is a bit weird but excellent opportunity for developers to research what happens when there is too much money generated to clubs.

Rennes lost 0-10 against Grenoble

this seemes a bit strange, Rennes used youth players for the first time in the season, and has never used them again….
this seemes bizarre to me, specialy because Rennes can still fight for international spots. or was it to just favor Grenoble and not let them loose points to fight for the title?

After reading the posts, probably the fact about non realistic prices can be right, and studied, even at the middle seasons the prices were much higher lately the prices have decreased. But my first impression is that it is very good that the money ran/moves, this way all teams have access to sell/buy not only reach teams decides the market.

Not really, the ratings do not currently affect player development.

Yep, all the pressure for changes usually gets this result… When this wave ends the market will frozen again, some weak teams with good managers will certainly raise as they made great money, teams with bad managers will continue to do bad as they will waste the extra money and wont find as good players as the top teams now even richer than before… The only diference now is that it will be impossible for a new manager to find a team with conditions to grow and so more new managers will quit the game prematurely… But hey, no one saw this coming :P

Medium ticker they are still buying, not as much though. Its kinda expected such a big burst considering alot of teams hadnt been spending money.. Over the next 2 weeks this should really cut down.

Hi,

Is that normal that CPUs don’t loan players?
