I support the idea of cutting the first division in two and remove the second division. I took a look in fastticker and there only is a problem in Brazil, Spain and Portugal. But maybe you can solve this by adding new countries. I think many managers wait for new countries and will choose a new team in one of these new countries.
I suggest that you first add some new countries (with already a 1 division in two pieces) and afterwards you can remove the 2 divisions in the 8 existing countries (and replace the cpu teams by managed 2 division teams if still necessary)

Or you can maintain in the most popular countries the 2 division (I think this is an option for Brazil, Portugal and Spain)

Maybe you can send a message in the game itself to ask who will choose for a new team or to let everybody know that this discussion is an important one.
Then also managers who don’t look at the forum can give their opinion if they want. And everybody knows so nobody can complain.

To Polat: I don’t find it a problem to play 4 times against the same team, cause the smaller division will be stronger then the one right now. And if you have a bad season you also can play against relegation. Otherwise there will be no goal at all for smaller teams. With this smaller league it’s also possible that a smaller team (who normaly play for relegation) can qualificate for the european/sud american competitions if they play a great season.
e.g. in Italy there are each season different who play for the CL and UEFA cup places.

So I would say cut and add more countries (Netherlands, Belgium, Turkey, …)

Cheers

Problem solved. He just wanted to play the national cup with him. What a good conversation can do.

Talking about a little conversation. He literally said it was 25M in his message cause I want to give only 20M first. But I just have to pay this 30M if I want the player I guess…

And what you said about Simao I can understand in rubysoccer (not in real life) that you see the light and realise that the player is still very usefull for the team. But raise the transferprice is a totally different point according to me.

I just want to mention this…

I want to buy Silveira Martins of Independiente (Fastticker) and my bid was exactly the transferprize of 25M. I was already negotiating with the player. And this morning I saw that the manager of Independiente had raised the transferprize to 30M.

I can accept this if there is another team that has offered 25M but not now cause I’m the only team that has offered 25M AND we were already negotiating.

I think there has to be something that the selling manager can’t change the transferprize once the buying team and the player are negotiating. So can you implete such kind of rule?

There has to be some fairplay in the game.

Cheers

I’m also satisfied like the game is right now. Maybe you can expand the board in a next step and consider my suggestion for the CL.

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.

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.

Maybe you can add a logic that a player can decide that he wants to leave the team after for instance he had already signed 2 contract renewals. Then a player won’t stay in the same team whole his career.
But it is not necessary for all the players I think. So maybe you can add a percentage like you did with youthgeneration.

You can already try it now and if there are more countries you can add more groups. Also with a few countries I like a groupstage more then it is now.

I’m a strong supporter of group stage in the CL. Then there will be more matches which will provide more income. It will also be more fun I think.
You can play against more teams and also the smaller teams in the CL can easily play 6 or 8 CL matches.

The only obstacle are the 21 places for the CL. I have thought about a system but that will only work with 20 teams. But I think this groupstage is worth the sacrifice of this CL place.

First there will be a qualifying round like there is now with 8 teams (home and away).

After that the groupstage begins with the 4 winners of the qualifying round and 12 directly placed teams. So we have 16 teams what will make 4 groups of 4 teams.

Within these 4 groups there will be played 6 games (home and away against each team)

The 2 best teams of each group play a knock-out stage afterwards.
So quarter final 4x home and away
Semi final home and away
and the final will take place at neutral ground like it is now.

The extra turns this plan will have are not a problem I guess because the National cup already ends on tick 52.

I suggest:
qualifying round: tickx 94 and 97

group stage: ticks 104/107/110 and 116/119/122

quarter final: ticks 128/131

semi final: 136/139

final: 143

Then we can play almost the whole season in 2 competitions and we have to take care about the stamina of our players. That’s not really a problem now unless you only have 11 good players…

Cheers

On what basis the points of the country ranking were given?

For example
My team (Genoa) has 13.0 and played the final in the CL
Recreativo Huelva has 14.0 and played the semi final against the CL-winner

What is your logic behind these points.

Which skills will affect a keeper now (or in the future) beside keeping off course. Speed but also control or passing??

Ok thanks. I can live with the thought that my GK “never” will have a 10 rating :-)
It sounds logical indeed.

I was wondering why my GK has such a bad rating.
IBM

Napoli has 0 shots and 0 shots on traget. Why my GK has only a 5.0 rating? Does he need to do some spectacular safes for a good rating?

I play with Genoa in fastticker and have invited bayern Munchen for a friendly in tick 98. When I saw my message box this morning Bayern Munchen had accepted this friendly in tick 98 twice. I found this strange but the friendly also is fixed twice in the match schedule.
So now we play the match Bayern Munchen – Genoa 2 times in tick 98.

Can you fix it.

Central players you can use on positions LC, C and RC, but not on positions L and R.
So you have 5 positions on the field. And on each position -1, 0 and +1
DL DLC DC DRC DR
ML MLC MC MRC MR
AL ALC AC ARC AR

You have only 4 positions in your example so I guess you don’t use a player on the C position. So your
DC-players can play on positions 3 and 4, MC on 7 and 8 and AC on 10 and 11.
As long as they don’t play on the wings your central players wont be punished.

L-player can play on position L and LC

R-player can play on position R and RC

Ok. I hope my bad luck will be compensated with a star player the next time I generate a youth. Then I can live with it. :-)

Do you already find a good formula for the balance between home and away matches? Cause I have to play 12 of the 19 matches in the first half of the season at my home ground. The same of course in the second half with the away matches.

I don’t expect every time after a home match an away match but now I have in 12 matches only one away game in the first half. In the second half I have 8 away matches in a row.

Can you find a way to balance this a bit more.

Cheers

What are the qualifications needed for a DM/MD;…?
Why players like Calvaresi D83 and M76 and Priolo D79 and M71 and A70 are no DM. Cause Figueiredo D74 M81 and Buonagura D74 M82 are MD. (fastticker – Genoa)
The difference between the main skills of these 4 players is practically the same.

When a player has the chance to have 2 positions?

I agree with Samir. You can postpone the the penalties till the end of the season. Then we can play the european championships and the last leaguegames with the team we normally use and in the meanwhile we can search for new needed players for the next season.

I choose for option 3 because I play with a defensive midfielder on M-1 and when there is a regeneration this player will become a defender. With option 3 he stays a DM and I can still use him on my midfield.

The higher wage, it will be so. The difference won’t be that big.

It’s the second time that I have planned friendlies with a team and the manager left the team are get fired.
Nothing wrong with this but the next tick the new computer team cancelled the friendlies.

This time it’s Gimnasia Jujuy of Argentina in Medium ticker that cancelled the friendlies. Why do CPU teams cancel the friendlies as soon as they become a CPU teams?

Only because you can play friendlies against CPU teams? Are is this a bug.

I agree with Alexandre. I also use a defender with good passing skills on position M-1. But I also agree that there must be penalties for the wrong positions. There are also midfielders with that kind of skill like my player in fastticker Buonagura for instance. He has D82 M74 A77 so he is a perfect DM.

I suggest for now the same as Samir but when there are DM, DA and MA a penalitie of -5 or maybe -10 seems reasonable to me.

Maybe you can work with positionchanges. I mean a player like Stefano Sferrella, a striker who is much better on the midfield than in the attack, can have a position change after a certain period and become a midfielder ( If there are DA, DM, MA, etc he can become a MA). But this only happens when a player is much better on another position then his normal position.

So the players will increase their skills as they do it now and we can’t predict this evolution on the basis of the other skills.

I don’t know if this is possible because I don’t know anything at all about programming a game.
It’s just an idea :-)

Let’s say that they give a certain percentage more of what they give every 3 turns. A good league performance means good publicity for the sponsor. I think it is for good publicity that they are sponsering the team :-)

Maybe the prize money must be connected on the board’s exspectations. When you reach these exspectations you gain a certain amount of prize money. Then smaller teams also have the chance to gain prize money.
I think this is possible now the time of the multi-millionaire teams is gone.

Besides this there can also be prize money for winning the league, CL , Uefa cup, national cup, etc.

Are you sure that there were no suspensed players? Because then the system choses the best substitution player and maybe in your case this was an attacker what makes that 532 becomes 433.
