2. 5th Ranked Country 8 Stars

Yes,
the champions league winner, check the traits tab for their squad. It’s nuts, in this market, the 8 stars alone are worth at least 1.6billion. Then add in the other 32 players, must be the most expensive team in the game.

So you are saying, the 5th ranked country gets 8 stars in total, and all 8 are in 1 team?

How many stars does the 2nd ranked country get? What are the rules to get stars?

2. 5th Ranked Country 8 Stars

You can give me the exact team if you’re curious to know more details, but my guess would be that this particular team is accumulating more stars in that country and leaving less for the others teams over there, whereas in your country the stars are being more evenly distributed across the teams. So even if that country has less stars overall it is possible that a particular team from there has more stars than any one team in your country.

2. 5th Ranked Country 8 Stars

How can a 5th ranked country have a team with 8 superstar players in it???

I am in the 2nd ranked country, I can barely keep 3, despite buying more, having them dominate a season with over 8.0 rating, and still lose their star rating.

What is the bug that allows this?

Happy to do that change based on the links you’ve sent, Dimitri. We know that we may have sourced some team names from places that don’t use the most usual name for the teams, not to mention the fact that we have some teams in the game that don’t exist anymore :-)

Thanks for the tip.

Is it possible to change the team names in the Dutch leagues to the official ones?
Either check https://eredivisie.nl/competitie/stand/ and

or I can make a list.

The average rating table in the competition statistics screen will now exclude players that have not played at least 3 matches in that competition. When no players have played 3 matches yet the table will still include all players as it is today.

2. Lost Attacker

He was suspended. I see he’s got a yellow card in the previous league match and the player cards screen does not show a yellow for him, which means he was suspended in your 0-4 match.

2. Lost Attacker

Erick Kassab

He is my A/0 C for this formation:
- He was not injured – no mail message
- I did not adjust him out of the formation, nor put him back in after the match
- Kassab is still sitting in the correct position in the formation
- Islas is still on the bench

You are right, 11 players, somehow Adrián Islas took the position instead. Islas was mean to sub in at halftime, for A/-1 RC.

Most unusual.

2. Lost Attacker

Hi,
I just lost 0-4 to Nottingham Forest in Medium Ticker.

The match report shows Liverpool was missing 1 player from the formation. The centre striker Kasaab is not in the match report.

I lost 0-4, I assume the bug caused my team to have only 10 players in the game?

New players will not have to play for national squad or be man of the match to improve at any point in their careers. Existing players may still require one of those things towards the end of their improvement, as usual. Manager have little to no control of how to complete those two types of improvement, hence the decision to take them out of the game.

There were also some tweaks in the order some of the improvement requirements appear. We have brought forward the “play abroad” requirement, swapping with the play international cup ones. Similarly, this is valid only for new players.

The calculation of the new team strength during the season tick has been modified. The old formula included all the players a team owns (even if loaned out) plus any players currently in the team from loan. The new formula will exclude the loaned in players and only consider the players a team owns (even if loaned out, as before).

This depends on the window size/resolution. Even if you open a browser window with the usual layout, once you resize that window and make it smaller you will then get the mobile version.

If you are restricted to a certain window size or resolution in your laptop then there is not much you can do unfortunately as the transition to the mobile style interface is automatic and coded into the game.

Hi,
on some web browsers on my computer, I still get the wrong interface.

When I log in using my laptop, I get the mobile phone interface, with the menu on the top right corner. How do I fix this?

I’m using Microsoft Edge.

We have new rules in place for removing a player from the transfer list or changing the transfer parameters. Those two actions cannot be performed if there is a transfer proposal for the player from a human-managed team that satisfies the transfer price. However, if the player rejects the wage offer in that proposal then those restrictions do not apply and you are again free to cancel the transfer or change the parameters.

The rules for applying to class A and B teams have been relaxed. Managers who have won the Club World Cup at least once in their careers can apply to any team and managers who have won a top tier international cup (CL, Libertadores or CCL) can apply to B teams or lower.

In summary:

• A team: you can apply if already managing an A team or if you have ever won the Club World Cup
• B team: you can apply if already managing an A or B team or if you have ever won a tier 1 international cup
• other teams: anyone can apply

TestTicker’s exclusive feature of restricting the teams you can apply for has been rolled out to FastTicker and MediumTicker. That means you will only be able to apply for teams of class C or lower while unemployed, you can only apply for higher class teams if you are already managing a higher class team (e.g. you took your initially D team to class B, so now you can apply to other teams up to B class).

Yep,
just trying to work out how to develop my terrible players, whilst remaining competitive.

1. Topic: Suggestions
2. Player Loans

This is a hot topic I’d say. I’ve heard similar suggestions before, but essentially you are asking non-managed teams to prioritise developing players from human-managed teams instead of using what they have best or developing their own :-)

Class E and F teams are the ones which will look into loans first and pick the best players available for loan that they think would be part of their first 11. For example, they wouldn’t loan a GK from you if theirs was better in their view or they wouldn’t loan an attacker if they had 2-3 better than the ones you’re offering for loan.

Teams with class A to D will also loan players, but they tend to prioritise buying players. If they don’t find or can’t afford what they’re looking for then they will look into loans. We need to be careful in tweaking that so we don’t end up with a better loan market but worse transfer market, if that makes sense.

1. Topic: Suggestions
2. Player Loans

Hi, we are 4 ticks away from the start of the season, but none of my players up for loan have been loaned out.

I’d expected at least 1 to have been picked by now.

Hard to get official matches for everyone in a squad of 40. Loans in this game are important for team development.

Any chance to tweak it to loan earlier in the new season, and to have a few more get picked up by npc teams?

There is a new section in our Hall of Fame for player records. The World Team of the Season history has been moved to a new tab called Awards and the Players tab now shows information of retired players. At the moment the following records are captured when a player retires and displayed here:

• matches played
• goals scored
• assists
• man of the match awards
• average rating
• top scorer awards
• team of the round awards
• team of the season awards
• world team of the season awards
• player of the season awards

For now only the top 10 players in each category are displayed, but soon you will be able to view additional players for each category as well click the player name to view more details about the player.
