Got a 404 on this player. Not sure if it’s just me
But that’s just a reputation and nothing what Imortal is suggesting. Unless reputation takes into consideration the time at the club, time in the game….etc
I feel your pain Dimitri. Can only hope that the next update will inject the life back into the game by sorting out the transfer market. i’ve put a freeze on doing anything in the game until the change is done. Hold on in there and then see how it is.
i agree it’s not fair to have an active market based on CPU dumb decisions, but has the change actually made CPU players act better? I question that. Yes they are not buying totally pathetic players but the veterans who still can kick a ball / make a difference no longer sell for as low as we can transfer them to lower league teams. This doesnt happen in real football. Instead everyone INCLUDING the CPU are now being ultra fussy about who they sign. Only young up and coming players are worth buying by anyone. That is just not a good change. Not realistic and not what i would expect as a person coming in to an online football game. It needs tweaking…it’s STILL not right.
I’m guessing this will be left for a few seasons to see how things are. So please put me out of my misery. Will you review this in the future or are you actually happy with the change?
and it will be nothing like the real life football. I’m afraid this is a turn for the worse. It’s killed the game for me, i do less than i did before. I remember the manager/soccersim days, being very active because there was a lot going on that i needed to get involved in. The transfer and development side was one side of this game i liked. It’s now gone. But that is just my view and i’m sure everyone is enjoying the change :)
i aint going to get used to it :P lol
i sold him for as little as possible. It took loads of ticks to get one team interested as well.
hold the front page. I’ve finally sold ONE player since the change. I’m in both games but the player Federico Pacetti has left for Alemannia Aachen. Here are his stats:-
Age: 22
Nationality:
Club: Alemannia Aachen Previous club: Defensa y Justicia Estimated Value: $1,194,216Attributes
Position: D
Side: LR
Keeping: 35
Tackle: 79
Passing: 62
Shooting: 72
Speed: 75
Dribble: 74
Control: 75
Header: 74
Aggressiveness: 11
Stamina: 99
Now why would this player get sold? I bet he turns into a fantastic player. doh!
Charles – yes, i used to play Soccersim/Managersim in both it’s names :) CPU loaning of players is one massive advantage that the game had. Used to love seeing when the ticks were going to double-tick! lol. good times.
BerhanK – what code is it?
Berhan K – i asked the same question via twitter but there was a list they could give me. The view was they were young developing players so i guess the old vets are not going to sell to even the lower league teams like they would in the English Leagues for example.
Also, going back to your move to another club, your point of knowing the current financial state is a good one. Not required to know figures but certainly we would know from the press that a certain club is in good or bad financial situation. This would at least give you an idea if it’s worth jumping ship.
was the old game SoccerSim / ManagerSim ?
BK … or just leave the sinking ship and join another team :op you talk like a real life manager before he leaves the team he is loyal to :) i dont blame you, could see a lot of team moving soon
So anyone sold any players yet? How about you Berhan K ? you had 11 players for sale…
yep, i didnt plan for this change and it’s caught me off guard. typical amateur ;)
i’ve tried selling players over 50% cheaper that would be ok in lower leagues, in real life. They are not going … :) Rich clubs will be able to adapt but those that scrape along taking on youth, to sell on will not. Small squad clubs will also survive but there will be less scope to develop players or take on players that may have potential. I can understand why things change but it’s still not true to life and reduces the way the game can be played. Less enjoyable in my eyes but i wouldnt expect a change back because i’m no long enjoying the game. :)
Thanks for the advice though. I prefer a break so will let the funds go to 0 :)
update via twitter. “last 7 turns CPU teams bought 31 players, 4 from human-managed team”. yes, just 4! I’m going bankrupt on both games now :) lol. i wish i had kept a large wad of money in the bank and i could limp along trying to develop youth :) oh well :)
i may have no choice. since the change my money is running out so i may have to abandon the team i’ve always played with. :) Might take a break and wait until the game has developed a little more and things have settled.
Thanks for the answers :)
lets see how players get sold to cpu teams. thats what i meant :)
As much as i enjoy russian roulette virtually ;), it’s not very true to the game.
I need to clarify with a few questions :-
1) will the manager of the team you apply for know you have applied?
2) can i revoke my application if it’s been a few ticks and nothing has happened or will i just take over at 1%, which could possibly be 2 seasons time?
thanks again for the insight. I’m tempted to do this to take over a team i have connections with ;)
Well, let’s see what happens with Berhan K team. It will be interesting for sure. On the Medium tick, i tried to sell a young player for about 400K as opposed to 3Mil and even he isnt going anywhere. I hope it’s not broke. Maybe we start a thread asking what players have gone to CPU in the last half of the season?
how about selling Donkeys ;)
well, this will be a perfect experiment. You are the manager of Blackpool with 11 players for sale, so let’s see how many you sell to CPU teams. review in one week i think.
p.s. interesting how you are selling 2 retired players. Sure that isn’t allowed or were they already for sale when you joined the club – bug ?
no one has money to buy them…because we cant sell our own players anymore ;)
So, if i apply and his performance is 4%, will i get a rejected mail and i will have to apply again OR will i automatically take over if his 4% drops to 0% ?
I noticed you can apply for a job at an occupied club as long as your rating is better than the current manager. Anyone done this? I’m guessing you stay at your club unless you get the new job?
Gabriel – thanks for the reply. It’s a very noticeable change and i’m not sure it’s going to help the enjoyment of the game in the long run but totally agree it needs monitoring for a period. :)
Im questioning if it’s a bug and it applies to both games my just fast tick but thanks for your useful reply :)
Also old vets tend to play in a lower league at the end of their career for a small price. This was happening before…
Sorry didn’t see this thread. Moaned about this elsewhere. It’s a change that is going to make us all think about what players we have. I’m sure I will go bankrupt in the near future because I can’t sell players and too scared to buy players. Unless ofcourse they are the future and then they be sold to a human player.
It’s not a very productive change in the fact that I’m not enjoying the game as much. It may get better of course but the low balanced teams are now suffering. The rich will get richer ! Doh :)
I know i will be beat up for posting this as a bug but since the change (end of Sept) i havent managed to sell one player to a CPU team on either medium or fast. I’ve put the price down so they are basically 1/8th of their asking price and less than 1 mil! Normally this would get a sale easily but nothing.
Is this a problem or are we stuck with players who are too old and past it AND also players who are younger than 20 that we no longer need? I’m sure this isnt right.
i managed Chesterfield in one of the games but cant remember which one. :)
