I’m with vaughn on the wages, mine aren’t particularly high but i lose around 100k when i don’t have a home game. Wages should be somehow comparative to value ( i’m sure they already are ), so that if someone is paying 100mil for a player they’re going to have to pay the wages to go with it, reducing the richer teams earning potential.
allright, thanks for the explanation, Gabriel!
Looks like Alexander’s Napoli is the “fighting for title” team this season. Or is it Mantova or Palermo, would be a suprise…
@Vaughn: indeed, again an interesting season…Italy is growing to become the second best country in Europe.
Regarding graphics, I didn’t ask for a Russia country symbol for 2 reasons:
- I didn’t want to reveal Russia was gonna be added ;)
- The page design will change soon and we probably won’t use the spherical symbols anymore (you’ll see why)
Danilo is using the newspaper layout you suggested, by the way, it’s really nice!
We need 18 teams, which are (not sure about rankings last season, but supposing this was the bottom up country ranking):
- worst on Russia (2nd place)
- worst on Netherlands (2nd place)
- worst on Germany (3rd place)
- worst on Italy (3rd place)
- worst on France (3rd place)
- worst on England (4th place)
- worst on Portugal (4th place)
- worst on Spain (4th place)
Then we start bottom up again:
- 2nd worst on Russia (1st place)
- 2nd worst on Netherlands (1st place)
- 2nd worst on Germany (2nd place)
- 2nd worst on Italy (2nd place)
- 2nd worst on France (2nd place)
- 2nd worst on England (3rd place)
- 2nd worst on Portugal (3rd place)
- 2nd worst on Spain (3rd place)
2 teams to go:
- 3rd worst on Russia (none, only had 2 spots)
- 3rd worst on Netherlands (none, only had 2 spots)
- 3rd worst on Germany (1st place)
- 3rd worst on Italy (1st place)
I know, that’s not real life logic, but you should agree it’s fair. With more countries the top countries champion won’t be on Qualifying round anymore ;)
i have some small comments (not gonne make a new topic :P);
- wages
Should be kept this way, i only get like $400.000 per 3ticks on a home game and lose $80.000 on a not home game. I got only coaching 9 to keep the costs lower, how in earth would it be better to make the wages higher? I’m not a small club, but higher wages would ruin ALOT of small clubs cause they can’t pay the wages! I try to keep my wages small at all costs, but because of the previous managers i’m kinda forced to give them 15/20k all the time.
- transfer
We really need a longer time to think about a transfer i think, 3 ticks is REALLY fast for a transfer in my opinion. I think if you move that up to 9 and let managers “overbit” on the current transfer price there would come more interaction.
- graphics (new)
i think someone was to lazy to ask for a new country symbol for Russia !!!?!???!?!
I won the league in s24 and got from my board at the beginning of s25 Qualify for Champions League. Now i have the same, hhm could be an other interesting competition in italy again!
For those who doubted about Santo Andre’s capacity of winning a game without ‘bribing’, here it is: Club world cup champion!
Cheers! XD
That is because of the country ranking. The order it get teams to play qualifying is from the worst country on the ranking. So, it would be russia, netherlands and germany.
Hey Alban, I will miss our matches!
Good luck in Russia.
And for the little jokers, no, I haven’t bribed Alban any match! XD
sorry, but i dont get the logic …
… 1st place in netherlands, germany and russia is worse enough for the quali? right?
Right. Thanks Gabriel. Then of you guys in Italy has spend a lot of cash for new players because the previous season I had ‘fight for the title’ and ‘reach the final’.
Good luck to you all!
By your goals the conclusion is your team is the second best in Italy. If your goal in the cup is reach the final you’re either the best or second best, we don’t have a win the cup goal for the cups. If you goal in the league is qualify for CL and you have 4 CL spots you could be the second, third or fourth best team in your country, if you were the first your goal would be “Fight for the title”. Conclusion, you’re the second best.
If you have 3 spots, the worst qualified team is the third place. That’s what I mean :)
If anybody wants to talk about a specific topic on this list please create a new topic (search if it already exists first) in the suggestions forum. If you wanna talk about the wish list in general feel free to post it here ;)
Nice wish list! Most of these suggestions are possible, some of them are already planned. Let me write a few comments about some of the topics:
1) Better match engine:
- less shots: absolutely, yes
- weaker GKs: probably necessary when we have less shots
- more chances to score from a shot: consequence of the above topic
- more goals from midfielders: need to figure out a good way to do that in the current logic
- 10x decrease of one-touch shots (or 10x decrease in their accuracy): I was thinking of completely eliminating the possibility of a player receiving and shooting in the same “match turn”, meaning you’d see in the replay the ball with the attacker before he shoots
- the players should maintain the formation: don’t they? :)
- don’t give 3 points to each skill of the home team, maximum 1: not sure about this one, in the tests I did by the time this was implemented 1 point almost didn’t make any difference
- add more ways to control players’ determination and fatigue: this could be done automatically at first (if your team is ahead by 3 goals the players slow down) and a control could be added later
- add dribbling accuracy % in the report and decrease it: interesting
2) Players skills:
- decrease players’ skills, I think the chances to develop a star should be 3 times lower: there are 3 ways of doing that, we can make the players starting skills lower (current average is 70 for a top country), we can make they develop less in the average (current average is 20 points per skill)
- playing matches players should be able to acquire new positions: something like that is already planned
- add happiness, we can keep a superstar on the bench for the whole season at the moment: agreed
3) Economics
- add transfer windows: not sure about that…
- expand the contracts, add clauses and players’ wishes and reactions: planned
- players worth 50M+ should get be paid at least 50k per week or become unhappy: I agree we should raise the wages in general
- players should better choose a club to play for, not the weakest side for sure: adding player wish could be interesting, we just need to be careful to not make good players always refuse small teams
- add the option to cancel the contract without fee if both sides agree: need to think about it
- don’t let the clubs to accumulate infinite sums of cash – the Board should control it and offer the options to spend cash after 1 season: need to think about good ways to spend cash
- overall wages should be at least 2 times higher than now: I agree we should raise the wages in general
- sponsor contracts should be signed with different goals and bonuses: interesting, not easy to implement ;)
- football economics shouldn’t be as profitable as it is now: agreed
4) Clubs
- increase squad limit: some friends have been asking that for a while…but how would you keep them if you have higher wages ;)
- remove friendlies, change to B teams competitions: interesting, but really hard to do
- add fanbase, which will react on results and transfers: very interesting
- add detailed team history: planned
- add national squads: planned
5) Gameworld
- add more countries and regions and lower leagues: welcome Russia! Lower leagues will probably wait, more countries have higher priority
- add the ability to “exchange” the clubs – 2 managers with close ranks should be able to exchange teams for a new challenge: I don’t like it, could be used to prevent being fired
- the newspaper and interviews are essential to keep the interest, also manager of the month, player of the month awards: Danilo is taking care of the newspaper, initial version will be ready soon
- make it more interesting to change clubs after a while: how? need to figure it out
Please send me some invites :)
How do you calculate the “worst qualified team”?
Stange. In the league I have to qualify for CL. As we have 4 CL places in Italy this season there are at least 3 teams better then mine.
.
The goal for the cup is reach the final. So here there is only 1 team better.
.
Don’t they call this a contradiction? :)
.
Is there another calculation?
Check my reply on this topic: http://www.rubysoccer.com/forums/6/topics/1095
Now that we have Russia more teams participate in the qualifying round. The logic to choose these teams is to go through the ranking from bottom up and pick the worst qualified team from each country. When we reach the top we start again from the bottom picking the second worst qualified. This is done until we reach the number of teams needed for the qualifying round.
Mhh I posted a similar message in the Bugs part….
Gabriel, is there a new qualificationsystem in CL now Russia has joined fastticker?
Why do I have to play with Genoa in the qualification round as the champion of Italy when Monaco + Brest and Charlton Atletic + Bolton don’t have to.
Italy is now 3th in the country ranking in Europe before France and England. Or does this ranking only count for next season (season 27)?
As I see now in qualification round:
Spain: 2 teams
Portugal: 2 teams
Italy: 3 teams
England: 2 teams
France: 2 teams
Germany: 3 teams
Netherlands: 2 teams
Russia: 2 teams
18 teams => gives 9 qualificated teams + 2x Spain + 2x England + 2x France + 1x Portugal = 16 teams
new country ? =)
for some leagues (e.g. germany, netherlands) all CL competitors have to play the qualification now. What’s the reason for that?
Ok, I am joining CSKA Moscow (Russia), let’s see, what I get here with a new club. In MS it was quite easy to start a new career, have done it maaaany times.
p.s. too bad no trophies last season, good luck to the new manager !
p.p.s. wow…3 more managers are applying for that job…not fair !
1) Better match engine:
- less shots
- weaker GKs
- more chances to score from a shot
- more goals from midfielders
- 10x decrease of one-touch shots (or 10x decrease in their accuracy)
- the players should maintain the formation
- don’t give 3 points to each skill of the home team, maximum 1
- add more ways to control players’ determination and fatigue
- decrease passing accuracy – about 50% for long pass, 65% for medium pass, 75% for short
- increase tackling accuracy to at least 60% per match
- add dribbling accuracy % in the report and decrease it =)
2) Players skills:
- decrease players’ skills, I think the chances to develop a star should be 3 times lower
- playing matches players should be able to acquire new positions
- add happiness, we can keep a superstar on the bench for the whole season at the moment
3) Economics
- add transfer windows
- expand the contracts, add clauses and players’ wishes and reactions
- players worth 50M+ should get be paid at least 50k per week or become unhappy
- players should better choose a club to play for, not the weakest side for sure
- some clauses should be able to decrease the wage significantly, but it would be harder to keep the player
- add the option to cancel the contract without fee if both sides agree
- don’t let the clubs to accumulate infinite sums of cash – the Board should control it and offer the options to spend cash after 1 season
- overall wages should be at least 2 times higher than now
- sponsor contracts should be signed with different goals and bonuses
- football economics shouldn’t be as profitable as it is now
4) Clubs
- increase squad limit
- remove friendlies, change to B teams competitions
- add fanbase, which will react on results and transfers
- add detaied team history
- add national squads

This sounds interesting. But we will still try to reduce the number of shots anyway ;)
Just for the record, I’ve removed the 10 limit on board penalty.
What we have planned are transfer clauses which could include something like “X% of next transfer”. For example, you could sell a player for 1M with this clause saying 10% of next transfer. If the other team sells him in the future for 10M you’ll receive 1M more.
