General Discussion(English Only) / Re: Why can not my team win

« on: September 18, 2013, 06:04:46 PM »

It can be very frustrating when you can't seem to find a win. I had a brief look at your team to try and figure out why your team is not performing well. Your best player is crippled by injury while most of your other players are getting up in age. As your players are getting older, they are loosing skills with each passing day, contributing to the decline of your performance levels.
  My suggestion to you would be buy players to offset the declining abilities of your players. You may want to consider moving a few players along or releasing some of them due to their ages and declining levels of performance. Try to buy some young players with good potential.
  You might also want to take a closer look at your technical decisions in games. Understand that your team doesn't look very dangerous in attack and I suspect your defence isn't so solid either. Start on a new page with player evaluations. Determine who is fit to remain on your team and start training everyone with the team philosophy in mind. In this way, you will experience team improvement rather than just promoting the individual qualities of your players.

  My club is having a player sale currently selling young talent, the kind of players you will need to invest in to promote effective growth of the team as a whole. The market is prime for getting good players at very low prices so doing some shopping for players might be a good idea. I am sure you can find the kind of players you need without breaking the bank to do it.

Keep in mind that change doesn't come over night in this game. A few good signings will make finding a win easier, but you will still need to make good buys for you club as well as focus more on your tactical strategies during each match. The post game analysis should help you determine when you are making good tactical decisions.

thank you for the reply, but I think it is more then just that I think game engine changes seriously, It is effecting my team severely and I should some how find out what to do. other teams in my league have worst rostar but they can win unlike my team, maybe I just have very bad strategy

Dear Levan. Please also check player's Current Ability before buying him. LA 7 and LA 8 are good but you need a player who can directly join your first team and must have above CA 4 (which i guess is your current keeper's CA).
In my opinion, you can buy a CA5 or CA 6 of 30 years (never more than 31 years) because they are cheap. A 30 year CA6 keeper can serve you for 2 seasons and meanwhile you can train your own  keeper in friendlies or in rotation. As evident from the picture of your goalkeeper, you have balance around 300,000G. There is no option of offering cash plus player, so first sell any of you keeper (probably second choice) and add up money to buy new.

Thank you for the reply

Well, all good players are expensive actually 

A REALLY GOOD keeper, fully developed and high experience must be around 3-5M

It you want to farm your own keeper, prices are lower, but you play offguarded with one of them, i bought a LA8 PR3 keeper at 2.5M this season, i've seen few LA9 and their prices changes depending the owner's mental health 

But if you're willing to get a good keeper, you must be prepared to spend some good money on it.

i've seen few LA9 and their prices changes depending the owner's mental health 
Funny

Too rich for my blood
 I will try to fined young project keeper and try to train him then

I see some transfer for LA 8 at 3 mln level and I want for mine same price

 Bourgeoisie !!
 My proletariat team has not even seen that much money in its history.

For real my league/Team is not that good so I have to get lower class players then the players that compete in strong leagues

IMO, choosing a great GK also depends on your playingstyle, because if you play offside trap your keeper will have different needs than one that doesn't receive many one on one situations.

If you play offside trap, your keeper's GKO ability must be higher than his GKS:

Keeper must be specially good in:
* Handling
* Reflexes
* One on one
* Positioning

If you don't play offside trap, you must try to get/train a keeper skilled in shot stopping mostly, skills must not be "that" high, but many skills are involved on it, keeper must be good at:

* Handling
* Reflexes
* Rushing out
* Aerial Ability
* Positioning
* Jumping
* Decisions

Note that, even if handling is used in both situations, i don't consider it that important: this is not real life, and GKO engine has it's weakness, for instance, keepers doesn't need to hold the ball because there's no second chance goals, just tipping the ball away is enough, and Corner Kicks doesn't happen after the keeper tips the ball away! 

Thank you very much you provided with very useful information, one more question if you do not mined I am looking at GK and the prices are quite high?? or that is just me

General Discussion(English Only) / Re: How is team rating Calculated

« on: August 18, 2013, 04:22:52 PM »

I guess it is just terribly broken and it needs to be fixed

Probably, i didn't get mad because my team rating didn't increased this time... because it happened the same last season, so i were expecting the same 

The other teams has a little advantage to consider, his museum is a little better than yours so he is increasing rating "just a little" faster than you.

Still, the rating formula never were entirely revealed, we are discussing only based on calculations that a user did.

oo ok thank you for the information guess I will start working on my felicities

« on: August 18, 2013, 03:47:52 PM »

It depends on many factors: such as how many matches you win/lose/draw, what division you're playing and your club museum level.

You've got some calculations here, they might not be 100% accurate (they are estimations after all) but they aren't too far from real values

From what i've noticed, despite what game manual says, titles won doesn't increase team rating, last season i won WCC, national cup and finished 2nd in argentinian top level, my team rating didn't increase, not a single point.

  You won all of that and your Rating has not changed and I were unsatisfied with mine problem with his is that I have
even better stats then him and we were in the same level divisions he just played one more season in the second division

mine
Club points :
665
Games :
103
Wins :
78
Draws :
16
Defeats :
9

his
Club points :
587
Games :
117
Wins :
68

I guess it is just terribly broken and it needs to be fixed

I think that Levan actually meant you should clear your web browser's cache, but i think that won't fix your issue, it's a database issue i believe, contact the dev team with your issue.

« on: July 18, 2013, 10:54:45 PM »

IMHO the drop-off in quality is extremely fast even in big nations, and there seems to lack consistency among nations in how high LA players are allocated.

In Spain a total of 140,530,000 G has been inveseted in youth camps by 807 clubs
The the top three clubs (avg. investment 5.0 Millions) received LA 11, 10, and 9 players in this round. Meanwhile, none of the other 804 clubs with youth camp investments got better than LA7 and a surprisingly small number of LA7 players were allocated; for example, the 6th ranked team (with ~2 million invested) only received a LA6 player!

Meanwhile, in Argentina 154,680,000 G has been invested by 723 clubs
There, all of the top six clubs (avg. investment 4.9 million) received LA8+ players. The remaining 717 teams received LA7 or lower players. Interestingly, the 112th ranked team (only 280,000 G invested) received a LA6 player!

Argentine youth camps produced twice as many LA8+ players than Spain. This might make sense if the total or average investment in Argentina was twice that of Spain, but it is nowhere near that:
                  Total investment           Average Investment
Argentina      154,680,000                  213,942                           
Spain            140,530,000                  174,139     
SPA % of ARG:     90.8%                         81.4%

In these countries, clubs that received LA8+ players invested ~5 million, on average, half the cost of "the best" academy upgrade!  At this rate, these teams will spend ~10 million in two seasons for 4 LA8-11 players. I hope they think it was worth it, because I sure wouldn't. This only seems like a good idea after no further academy upgrades are possible. I am looking forward to a delete youth camp button!

Thank you nice post

Spent 2 millions and finished 8th in Brasil. Got 1/7/4 was expecting at least 8 la but can leave with that as it was  risky decision and please do not forget that this money is for two seasons so if i won't invest anymore i will still hopefully will get my money back selling the players 

So stop complain on what you have got. The system should be changed to be more balanced, but you were aware of it is a bit early and risky to invest on youth camps currently)

You are talking about risk

Code: [Select]

- In each country, every youth camp will be ranked based on the cumulative investment of each club.

- The total investment on youth camps of each country will affect the ability of youth players in that country.
so on the first stream of players I had invested around 500000 and I got a player 1/7/4 great now I invested more then double of that and other people invested a lot of money as well so I thought the amount of accumulated money would guaranty that I would get a good player but sadly that was not the case even though  the game rules clearly state that the quality of players should have improved. because the money has accumulated significantly, sadly I got a player 1/7/4 same as previously

The problem is that I knew about the rules, I knew that The best players would be in a country that would accumulate the most money like Brazil, So I chose it and other counters that I  have no problem with the players I got. In Brazil I have invested 1350000 G and I were N 20 in money invested I was thinking for that money I would get a player that I would have to train but he would be so much better in positional then what I could get for that money on transfer market. Sadly I got players that I have to train/play and think about future seasons and think one day they will become good. for that amount of money on a good day I could get a fantastic player. I just think I overplayed for 1/7/4 who is a future prospect and not even the best one.
I thought this youth camp was a  thing to balance the top teams and new small teams, I can never compare with big teams but If I would say no to a lot of stuff in a season and invest money in camp I would get players that would have positional to be great and give me ability to compete with strong teams now the reality is that I just threw away money I got a player that most big teams get in academy  and they pay cents for that

Only way I can somehow justify this and I do not know if this is true or not but if your grown players request less salary then bought players then it makes a little seance but if that is not true then I am struggling

I was waiting for Garrincha in my Brazilian camp
I have invested 1350000 G and I got 1/7/4 for that money I could have bot a very strong player but my cousin who invested 1505000 G got 1/6/4.

Good thing I threw away all of this money, that I could have used for facilities or players

Suggestions/Bugs / Re: Election of National Team's Manager

« on: July 16, 2013, 08:03:01 PM »

What is the reason why is this restriction set at all?

Simple, to avoid cheating in NT. In small countries a group of friends can do farming of their players . Sadley thatt happen in big , too i.e. England some seasons ago. But others users knew situation and changed NT coach. In small country that situation would stay for ages without intervention.

If that will happen so what still better then having random selected team and nt that looses every game I think my national team is the worst out there Georgia, if some one would take over that squad I do not think the results would be that bad even if some one would start using his teams players. plus there are counties that have small population like Faroe Islands in realty they have NT and football but in this game there is almost no chance that that country will ever be represented ever by a real manager, So I think that cap should be lifted off

However I think we should give other players ability to control nt managers like if some one will report a nt manager for so called farming players and after the investigation he will be found guilt he will be band for nt management for 5 seasons or something
