From my understanding, the teams are seeded in draws but not based on rating, it is based on league finish in the previous season.

The real problem is the difference in rating between the leagues in the game, under 70 teams win the title in some league when such teams struggle to even not get relegated in top leagues.

This is incredible wrong! We cannot see a group with all teams lower than 70.... and a group with 3 over 80. It's not funny for all

By the way your 16 yr olds are not bad at all, especially if they are close to 90 pot. If you train them well, they can easily reach 80+. Will take a few seasons more than 5 learning player of course but they can make it.

1 Learning need a team who use this player every match. ufficial and not. And this is impossible in first serie

It’s the Champions Cup, it’s not supposed to be easy. Some groups will be harder than others. This actually mirrors real life. Some seasons you’ll have an easier drawn some seasons you’ll have a harder draw. It is what it is.

I’m more annoyed by teams from the same country being drawn in the same group (I know we discuss this every season). That’s a guaranteed 4 competitive matches against the same team. And it could be as high as 6 depending on the other cups. Kinda crazy

Each season my group is so difficult

Not sure how playing matches has got to do anything with this. Learning has nothing to do with xp, it only affects regular training.

Out of interest, the 3 players (aged 16, 16 and 18) you sold last season for a combined total of 165 million, were they from your youth academy?

I sold one for less than I paid for it.
I sold one for the price I paid
One, actually paid for free, but useless to my team. And we are talking about a market in which many players are sold for 400 million. So another negative season. This current one is actually a disaster.

In addition, do we want to talk about the ridiculous system for drawing the cup groups? Which doesn't take into account "ranking" or "average value" bands????
There are impossible groups and ridiculous groups.
It is unacceptable that those who program a game are not capable of taking simple parameters into account, because it ruins everyone's fun.

I think this proves that the youth system needs a tweek, maybe not pay for your youth talents. You are at level 10 and you have already paid 17 mill in maintenance per season plus upgrade costs and lost money both years or possibly if you are lucky, break even. Not really much of an incentive for a heavily invested player and team who is active both buying and selling on the transfer market. It feels a little like you are being penalised for being an active player.

Or... maybe people should re-read the manual (The Tutorial) instead of making false accusations based on their incorrect assumptions.

The youth system is perfect as it is and I am saying this as someone who had all terrible players. People simply need to understand the game and stop complaining when they can't get 11 Messi level players. If that happens, then the game is truly doomed.

Firstly can you explain to me what part of the tutorial pertains to my comments and secondly the transfer market is not yet established enough to get the full value of the players. I never expect to get 5.0/5.0 players every season even though I have done quite well in the past bearing in mind I am lvl6 but based on my pull this season promoting a 4.5/1.0 player will never reach the 76mill valuation or sell as a youth for 38mill (2nd pull) therefore not worth promoting. Just saying it may be worth looking at and then maybe amended in the future. Lastly poor old karlacci has done 35 million and has seen no return (I do understand it will equal itself out over time and also fairly automated) but it would get your goat if you have been waiting for the youth pull all season and it is poor, again.

The proof is given by the fact that there are many poor ones around and the very few strong ones are sold at impossible prices.
Not to mention the users who inflate the market, selling everyone and then being able to spend billions

I have never looked at the cards stats until now, are they correct?
The number of cards is ridiculously low..

Couldn't agree more, cards are really low. It was suggested before that cards and injuries should be increased. I think injuries went up a bit after that, but don't see much increase in cards. My players have never missed more than 3-4 games combined due to suspensions in any season.

I have a suggestion here: make cards applicable across competitions, don't just limit to one competition. Meaning a card you get in a league match can be counted for a suspension in another competition. And increase card probability too, especially for the highly aggressive players.

Interesting. My observation was the opposite. My players got 4 yellow cards even tho I play easy tackling and intensity.

And we have matches like that:

I think it is the weaker players compared to the opponents that are always more likely to get cards.

This season too, no strong young players. And that's three seasons in a row. Thanks Dev for a bad edit. Youth school level 11!!!

QUESTION: Is Set pieces attribute important for Goal Keepers?

In the forums, it was written:

Fathima: "Not important. Tegimus made it clear before that set pieces do not affect goalkeepers, but said he might consider it later when he changes simulator "

Is this true? I remember reading somewhere the opposite, that set pieces attribute is important for Keepers so I had been training them.

Just wanted to ask and make sure not to repeat the same mistake.

Half of what Fathima said is right. Set Pieces attribute doesn't affect goalkeepers. At least in the current simulator.
But I don't remember I ever said I am considering making it important for goalkeepers. Doesn't mean it will never be, I am just saying I never said that before.

Tegimus, is fatigue for players in a constant decline throughout the game or do they regain some at the half?

In the current match simulator, it is a constant decline throughout the match.

Any news on the game development?
