2. This is getting ridiculous!

I have the feeling that if we have used statistics to generate the results instead of simulating the match most of the users would be happier. We chose the hardest path (simulate the match) so we can have a match replay feature in the future and have a better control of how different formations and player skills affect the results. The bad thing is that it takes much longer to have realistic results, even though we’re already getting some. Here’s what could have happened on those matches:

Match against Salamanca: their shots may have come from good strikers, so even shooting less they were more effective

Alavés, Eibar, Barcelona, Tenerife, Ejudo: Again, players with low shooting may be taking most of the shots

Xerez and Albacete: The keeper rating was high because he defended lots of shots, we’ll give a higher penalty when lots of goals are conceded

We are aware that the match simulation is critical for the game success and we’ll continuously improve it. Sometimes it’s just hard to find enough free time to do it faster as we have full time jobs and family that needs our attention. The game is free and we have no intention of going pay-to-play. Please be patient Radek and all other users that feel the same way and we promise you’ll have a great game. Being patient doesn’t mean you shouldn’t complain about what you think needs improvement :-)

Cheers.

2. Bug - Player's History

There is a bug in my players history page, Ademar Amarante didn’t play an official match yet and he’s over there with 0 played but 1 DP?
The only thing that maybe has a relationship with this bug, could be that I recently renewed his contract… Who knows hhehehe

2. Transfer List

We’ll have a minimum number of ticks before the player is transfered, like 2 turns after accepting the first proposal. And of course, the highest bid will win, as already happens now :-)

mostly security problems and misc bug fixes (around rails). but i´ve also noticed a small performance improvement. maybe i am wrong on the last one :).

1. Topic: Suggestions
2. Transfer List

One of the problems involving Transfer List can be cheating… Like, I have 2 accounts, or a good friend, and we make a deal of buying/selling players… They could easily transfer list the player 1 minute before the tick is updating and make an offer, and they will have a deal… I was thinking about something to prevent it… I’m not sure if there’s already something to be implemented to avoid this situation, or a new rule to be studied…

I was thinking about, when a player is transfer listed, he should be on the transfer list at least 3 ticks ( 3 for an example ) before accepting a contract, and I also think, the highest bid should “win” the player… I think this is not such a great idea, maybe someone has a better one… But this is something that we should really look after in the future when there are more countries, to prevent cheating and smart asses…..

hey gabriel,

i have a player called é. lins so i’m suspecting he causes those incomplete match reports.

thanks

Encoding problem Patrick, probably Érick Vaz is the one who received the card at 24, but the ‘É’ character couldn’t be displayed. We’ll work on that.

Already fixed the problem, shouldn’t happen again (not deleting suspensions when team is not able to line-up 11 players)

1. Topic: Bugs
2. Incomplete match report

Philipp is right, Blackburn Rovers didn’t have enough players to start the match. I’m not sure whether the score should be 1×0, 2×0 or 3×0, I guess it’s not the same all over the world, so we decided for 1×0. About the suspensions, yes, they should be deleted. I’ll remove them manually and see what happened.

Cheers.

1. Topic: Bugs
2. Incomplete match report

guess it’s b/c you have just 12 players & 2 of them are suspended by red card. so with 10 players you arent able to start the match & the opposing team is declared winner with a 1×0...

but shouldn’t it be a 3×0 then ?!
and shouldn’t the suspension (of the booked players) be deleted after the first annuled match !?

And Werder Bremen 2 weeks ago had a 8×1 against Arminia in the german league…

so hey, maybe it’s not that scary =)

try taking him out on the “bench” area and then you put him on the area above the field… it worked here

I have tried that several times, but the keeper will not be higher up than on the d-1 field.

We’ve changed the wage back to 9,999. Be careful everybody with this type of situation while we don’t implement wage caps.

The board will prevent that in the future Ninja. In order for us to revert that we would have to be sure nobody else offered more than 9,999 during the negotiations and that the player would accept 9,999, otherwise it would be unfair. We’ll take a look at that anyway.

Cheers.
