Will RS come out of beta and become pay-to-play ? =)))
Agreed.
clarifications ? Wohoo, we’ve got an exploit =))
Hmm, so we will have 20% less stars ? Or my math is wrong ?
I hope fellow managers wont be angry at me and think that they have craps youths thanks to me…but…I would appreciate if they think so =)))
Cool, now any existing youth is…priceless =)))) I wonder when we are able to see the difference….in 15 seasons ? =)
Just do it =)
Or give them 100 points instead of 120, or make smth else plz =)
% of matches won.
I don’t like. Just kills my eyes now. Besides, a club with highest victory % can still lose the title. At least arithmetically.
I guess it should better reflect the difference in class between teams =)
and the Board was happy with the result, by the way…
After a draw at home against Varzim I’ve gone down from 184 to 183 in manager rating points ! Is it fair ? =)
I decided to make a scout search of players with 97+ shooting. WHy 97 ? Because I think there are more than 100 shooters with 95 skill. And it looks like the game is full of…well 97 and higher looks like a guy is a supershooter…the FT gameworld is filled with guys who can score a goal from long distance without any effort. I think it would be better to have the average skill decreased =)
@ Nirabdha no ad agency in the world would tolerate that. It is not a fraud, but will not bring customers, so the ad agencies will not pay for such clicks.
@ Gabriel you are right, if we (developers and managers) create a community where everyone is interested in football and discussions, this will increase the chances of profitability greatly
Damn, Jakob, you rule ! I am a tactics idiot, too =) I remember investing 400M into America-RN players and it brought me all the victories I could dream of. But do you really think Philipp has better tactics than you ? Or maybe other German managers prefer youth squads against Hertha ? Let’s make a bet – you win the German title before season 30 (so you have 27, 28, 29) or you resign from Bayern ?
I think you don’t understand…it will not be profitable even with 1000 managers. Even if we pay 10$ per month. I now start to understand Peter Strand because he saw no business opportunity in MS (though the managers’ dedication to the game was higher than now with Ruby, due MS old age).
Just imagine:
1) there is a soccer management game
2) it costs 5$ per month
3) it is close to reality and represents 100 football countries with 3000 clubs to manage
4) there is 1 M.U., 1 Juventus, 1 Barcelona, 1 CSKA and it HAS A MANAGER
5) Someone pays 5$ a month and manages Milan and wins CL, you pay 5$ a month and have to struggle for UEFA Cup place in Armenia League (if the game world has many managers)
- so, what do you think ? Is it alright ? I guess not now with good pc’s, high competition and low community involvement.
If you think I am wrong, correct me, please.
Now let’s think how to make it more interesting for the managers.
1) Maybe leave only several top countries and all the international competitions ?
2) If there are 100 people who want to manage Juve and 0 people who want to manage Ravenna, it is easier to use fantasy clubs ?
x-x-x-x-x
You see, people like to win. Everyone does. Look at Ruby – if people get fired or relegated they are more likely to leave the game than those managers who fight for the title and cups. Now….how in the world is it possible to let everyone become a champion in a game like Rubysoccer ? Think of it, I guess the solution will earn a lot of money.
When the game “goes gold”, and it MUST become a paid game, it will be better. Though even 300 managers pauing 5$ per month will give only 1500$ which can cover only server costs and…perfect Brazilian coffee =) Have you thought about making this game profitable ? What are your ideas ? Maybe some facebook applications or iphone clients ?? I want this game to evolve and I think the developers deserve some decent money for their job.
Guys, we all are living in the 21st century and everyone older than kindergarten has a credit card or other online payment options. This game is currently an investment of the developers who spend their money, time, ideas and dreams on it. Some of us are making donations (I don’t) but as for me, I think that donation is a bad idea. I also don’t like the ADs because I never click on google ads or those “marrow transplant” or “fantasy American football games”.
I am not an IT guy or someone who has his own server, but at the moment I am an iphone user and from time to time I read articles about iphone game developers earning HUGE money (100,000$ and more) selling their games and also selling ad space in their games. I’ve read that some guy had about 3$ for every 1000 views.
And I’ve also read somewhere that now Apple lets the developers make games with monthly subscriptions. As for now, I don’t know any other online soccer management games on iphone. Of course, iphone adaptation will maybe change the game a lot, but I what if 10000 people download it for 3$ and you will get 70% – more than 20000$. At least enough to start talks with possible investors (for example, even I wouldn’t mind to become a co-investor of a POPULAR and PROFITABLE project, even if it is 10000 miles away from my home).
Any ideas ?
Danilo, I don’t need that “important announcement” thing or match result letters at all =))))
Just remobe it and make the game “lighter” =)
Hey, that’s a good think to understand what makes the game TOO heavy to stay fast and stable ? Maybe we can try to find some options which make our lives harder on the current server.
1) On the main page I don’t see the latest announcements thread.
2) Now I also get a match result "

Same here
I’ve seen America-RN beat Santo Andre 5-1 in the shootout =)
But in that situation 3-0 would be enough and correct. Because in real life the shootout ends when it is clear who wins the first block of five. 3-0 is enough, because even if America-RN didn’t score 2 more and Santo Andre did, it would still be 3-2. So I don’t know why 5-1 =)
12 seasons with Bayern, 1 title, 11 times finished second…including last 7 seasons. No CL titles, only 2 Deutsche Cups.
Is he an alive manager or just a very good AI ? =)) What about…ambitions ?
Ironically, he is #2 in the overall rankings. Again, after Philipp.
JACOB, YOU DESERVE BETTER !!!!!
ahh-ha…I play an AL club, but that would suck if I lose =)
Now the tick is too long =)
But but but I am against =)
We will have a world competition, similar divisions, same rules in all countries…we just have to change names into something like CC Molan, Royal Medrid, Monkeystar United….and it will be a totally fantasy game =)
It represents the real life situation and division sizes. Smaller leagues get less experience points, but have better stamina situation. The only thing I don’t like is that in Russia I had to wait 30 turns before the first league match =)
hehe, yes ! the difference is www. and no www. weird !
1) no
2) no
3) no
I just open mail and click match result. And then I can click team name or result and will get to the login page. I don’t get logged out because I can click “back” and continue browsing inside the game.
that’s economically useless to increase the stadiums…even if I have 50k seats filled every home game, this will bring 15M maximum of income – less than 1 transfer =)
and that was happening from the very start…on different pc’s and browsers
