Hmmm, you’re right Parag, managers can always change teams so it makes sense they have a market reputation or something like that. These days I was thinking about a reputation related to cheating, maybe we could have both.
Interesting idea, Rodrigo. This way we would probably reduce the number of managers who transfer list a player with no real intent of selling him or raising the price as soon as he/she realizes that lots of teams are interested in buying the player.
I’d like to read more opinions.
If I got it right you want to be able to recall or return a loaned player for free, right Sly? Well, personally I think that’s ok. When I first introduced the fine to recall or return a loaned player the idea was to be fair with the other team, but now I see it brought more worries than benefits. Maybe we should try that and see how it goes :)
Fixed!
If you have two players with same name on match replays both will be displayed.
Fixed!
Next time we’ll have first place in group 1 playing against second place in group 4, first place in group 2 playing against second place in group 3 and so on. Semi-finals won’t be predefined, they will behave the way it was before (best against worse). For South American competitions where we only have 2 groups it will be first in one group against second in the other.
AZ sounds good Hopjes. I got the names from a website but if you guys have any suggestions for more commonly used names just let us know ;)
First of all I assure you there is no bias towards teams without managers :)
Two things to consider. Lorient played at home, so you should add 3 points to each skill you mentioned. Also, the secondary skills may give him an advantage. Their striker for example has good dribbling skills which may explain how he managed to reach the goal and score twice.
Anyway, there are some factors to consider or maybe Lorient just got lucky. What I can tell you is there is no bias ;)
I agree Alexander, we’ll figure out a good way to reintroduce this option.
Hahahaha! C’mon man, take a look at my squad, it’s awesome! Rock solid defense, offensive midfielders all over around and José Andrade, a striker which I have no words to describe. I just need to find the perfect tactics ;)
It was born the smallest, staying the smallest depend on you guys ;)
The stadium size was generated based on player wages, that’s why they’re so small. At least increasing the size of small stadiums is not that expensive.
Copied from the improvements topic:
Luc Blomme: “free transfer list
select type of player
Fantastic and thanks for listening
cheers Luc”
Ralla: “New Country!”
Luc Blomme: “Nice one Ralla, missed that one.
I must stop smoking that stuff
I wonder how many managers will take up the teams in season 1
Sylvain, Rik, Boos etc heres your national country
Bring on Australia then i can play against myself
LOL”
FastTicker’s season tick surprise!
When FastTicker’s new season start in about 12 hours you’ll see the first of many interesting additions that represents the growth of RubySoccer. You may not see that right after entering the dimension, but if you navigate through our icons you’ll end up finding something new on a few pages. Let’s see who will be the first one to notice and post something in our Improvements Discussion topic ;)
p.s.: Even though I’ve exhaustively tested this during the week something can always go wrong when you put a new feature in the real environment. If something does happen I ask you guys to be patient cause any problem will be fixed as soon as we are available.
I’ve played against Fortaleza twice this season, both matches on Série A. I can proudly say that anyone could have won those matches but the advantage of playing at home was decisive. On my home ground I won 3 × 1 and I lost on their stadium 1 × 0. Ribas was the one to score for Fortaleza. This guy is a threat, there is no doubt!
There is not much I can say about Napoli, but their manager deserves our respect. On season 18 he has broken an incredible league title series from Genoa. They can certainly stand the challenge against the brazilian team!
If I had to guess, I’d go with Fortaleza. If my squad can’t be there at least I’ll support the team from my country ;)
P.S. We are currently planning the newspaper. It may take a while but I believe it will be worth waiting for it.
All over valued players on FastTicker had their values recalculated. It was necessary to bring the values back to a realistic level and allow players to be transfer listed for a reasonable amount.
I started with the youth academy cause I’m afraid of superstar youths all over the world as we used to have. Let’s see how it goes, 19 should be fine as well.
We’d have to check the whole card history of the player, unfortunately there is no easy way to do that :(
This limit is something we can test, DaMaGo. I’ll add this enhancement to our list.
Thanks!
youth player = player in the youth academy
2x points for every type of match: 2 for friendlies, 6 for league and cup, 8 for Sudamericana and UEFA, 10 for Libertadores and CL and 12 for Club World Cup
I’d like to clarify the latest changes on youth improvement system. We have received some complaints that youths were improving too slow. In response to that we’ve changed the system to allow a faster improvement for youth players.
On season start, all the players that are not fully developed receive some potential points that will be earned as they play matches and get experience. In the average they receive 10% of their total potential, which gives them something around 14 skill points to be distributed in all skills during improvements. Youths now receive 20% of their potential in the average instead of 10%.
Besides that we doubled the number of experience points youth players earn after playing a match. This will make they improve twice as fast as they were before.
Hope this was clear enough, if not feel free to drop your questions here ;)
I have to agree, even though I like the current system there is no point in ignoring group positions. I’ll add an enhancement for that. ;)
Hmmm, that’s odd. Did you look at the players cards page or just the players skills page where the next match cards are displayed? If it’s the second option, wasn’t there a friendly match to be played before your league match? In this case no cards would be displayed since there are no cumulative cards for friendlies.
You’re now able to undo your selection for fk, ck and pk takers. I still have to investigate why the wrong player is being selected though.
I’ve just changed the system, check this topic in the Announcements forum.
Improved youth development.
Youth players will receive twice as much potential points on season start and twice as much experience from matches. This will result in faster improvement while they’re in the youth academy, helping managers to identify potential stars earlier. As always, your feedback is very important to us.
Cheers!
It has been recently reported D-A-D. I’ll take a look on it. :)
I could, but there is another feature I’d like to add next FastTicker season and I doubt it will be ready also :)
I’ll do that Parag, don’t worry :)
So far our decision is to keep things as they are and create a new dimension when necessary. If the old dimensions are really messed up people will naturally move to the new one. Of course it’s still possible that the old dimensions get to a point where a reset will be inevitable, but I don’t fell we’re there yet.
Just an update :)
Unfortunately there is no way to tell whether or not you were on vacation mode :(
I’ll double check just to make sure, but the rule is every youth player whose contract is expiring will be hired if you’re on vacation mode, unless you already have 30 players including those loaned in and loaned out.
