why was my posted response to you in this thread deleted ?
yet not action taken ? i find this whole situation highly suspicious and bullshit.

would be nice if you communicated to me why its taking so long to return my club to me after this “mistake”

a mistake from whom… not me…so who else could have made said mistake…oh filipe abusing his admin ? what mistake ? although i highly agree it would be a big mistake for a “game master” to intentionally steal a team from a manager who is on vacation and had clicked said vacation option…. there shouldnt be a discussion. you should have all the access necessary gabriel to see what the fuck happend. GIVE ME MY FUCKING TEAM BACK HOLY SHIT

As far as I could see you might as well have been fired by mistake. I’ve contacted the new manager to explain the situation, hopefully we can fix that soon.

Copied from the announcements [admins only] thread:

Davison said
“Davison clicked vactation mode prior to taking his vacation. when clicking vacation mode the board stated 100% approval. apon returning from vacation i find my team being managed by a poaching piece of shit whom has never made his OWN club in his life sitting in my position of manager…. “fired for inactivity” how the fuck does that happen in vacation mode ?

FIX IT IMMEDIATELY or im gone."

As a clarification, you should only be fired for inactivity if you’re away for 7 days (or 30 in holiday mode). I’ll investigate what happened and get back to this topic.

Cheers

The admins were sleeping, the error happened 1:00 AM our time :-)
Then I was at work when I realized what happened and fixed it as soon as I could find some free time.

I’ll do my best. Yesterday I spent some time designing what I think the new match engine should look like. I’ll share that with Danilo after some more work.

At the end of the day I also don’t like what investments have done with the money in the game. We might as well go back to a money based economy with investments being upgraded with money and downgraded over time due to degradation, performance, random events, etc.

Yes, yes…it’s been a month without communications! I’m a father now, thank you very much. I have no plans to abandon RS…I mean, it looks abandoned now but you know what I mean. I’ve been thinking a lot about it, especially when watching the World Cup.

@BK: I don’t claim to be a master tactician or have a great understanding of which tactics works better against others…what I plan to achieve with a new match engine is a better way to calculate outcomes based on players attributes and positioning. Clearly the “real time” simulation we use is very sloppy and does not provide realistic moments during the match, as can be seen in the replays. I’ll probably re-write it in a way that will not be replayable, at least not with the level of details we currently have.

same with sunderland. the season is financial plus for the club and positional in regards to board req and i still dont get more to spend the next season ive always had it at lvl 10. always starting at 340m and even when i have extra points to use it should translate into money and doesnt

This has been mentioned before, but it’s broken.

My aim for the season was to stay in the division. I do this easily and turn my budget of 85m into just over 1billion and the investments come at the beginning of the season and my club is now worse than before.

This needs fixing. If a club made 1 billion in real life they wouldn’t go backwards.

Davison you are of legal age to buy your own milk, stop talking about titties. You should see some professional help about that though.

Why do you guys keep talking about match engine this and match engine that?
Are you developers? Have you written one? I say yes on both questions when it’s about me.
I wrote a document back in 2002 about how to do a match motor thinking, it’s in Swedish (unfortunately) but translation software is better these days.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bajtc82uzqee73b/MatchMotor.doc

How the results are simulated is important but really not THAT important as long as players (read users) know how to win a game, ie what is required to win against an opponent (stronger or weaker – does not matter). You could simply setup a table where a formation beats another and a third beating the second and so on. Not that important. In a while people will learn about it and start implementing it in their strategy. Or some people won’t care. I have been trying to figure out how RS works but given up, because it’s too much randomness. You have to start treating your users as they know football (specially those who really do know football).
To really create an epic game – sure – there has to be a great engine behind it BUT to get to first stage, maybe a simpler solution would do better things for you at this stage. First goal has to be to go mainstream, and attract as big audience as possible.

You have to really put elements in the game where you measure the knowledge of the manager in order to reward/penalize them with:
- better scores / worse scores
- better players / worse players
- better economy / worse economy

Sniff wrote something that is VERY important to give the users a great feedback of the game and that is to read user action and react upon that.
That is what I have been preaching since day one. A smart game engine (not the match engine) should read HOW user plays every time they log in and measure actions – then reward / penalize.
That is to read the fine print if you will.

Example:
- If Manager A check’s Manager B’s team 10 times and changes their tactics before a game then they are not sure how to setup their strategy = penalize.
- if a player is scouted and looked at by managers more than others, then that player is more important/valuable – add something to that player.

Measure who did setup the first team with less clicks – give some sort of bonus, maybe an extra chance of scoring.

Personally I think the match engine is the most important part of the game that needs to be worked on, so that some actual real world tactics or similar can be used and tactics maybe able to overcome a stronger team.

I also think that allowing larger squads with morale being introduced would be good. Maybe with the idea that certain players if they become unhappy could cause unrest within larger squads.

I also believe that currently it is too hard to please the board. A few seasons ago I managed to avoid relegation from the Premiership in the last day of the season, however the board still hated me and at the end of the season they were 1% happy with me. The next season I almost made the Champions League and they were still less than 25% happy with me. Once you get into the low figures, unless you are a miracle worker it seems very hard to please the board. Therefore reading the ideas of manager contracts would be an absolute disaster in my mind. Especially if you took on a more challenging role as manager, there would almost be no hope of survival.

I could suggest ideas all day long, but without a better fully working match engine (I do appreciate your work) I’m not sure they are worth it. I’m not sure if anyone remembers but there was a football management game called Player Manager by Dino Dini with the top down Kick Off view on the Amiga (yes I know I am old). That had a really simple tactics engine, where the field was divided into 12 squares and you could place your players via drag and drop to anywhere on the field dependent upon whether you or the opposition had the ball. You could see the 12 squares for possession and without the ball. You then clicked square 1 – 12 and could place your men for when the ball was in that square with and without the ball. You could also turn on lines to see where they had run from. This was really simple, but ultra effective in my mind. (http://www.mobygames.com/game/atari-st/player-manager/screenshots/gameShotId,113568/ – sorry no videos I can find) Maybe something like this could be added for more depth when overhauling the match engine section.
