As Uchiha said we only have 2 admins and they are not online 24 hours. So support ticket if I see tegimus offline coz I believe they get some notification for support ticket but not for chat if offline.

ahh, I assumed the other two were strictly: forum/live chat moderators.
anyways thanks for the info :)

Which is the difference, pros an cons, of playing with a WBL/WBR or a DMR/DML in deffending? Is the same to deffend an WFL/WFR? Would be good if Tegimus could explain pros and cons to play with one or another player. Assuming DR or DMR / 1 or 2 DC / DL or DML...

And another question to tegimus. There is a BONUS to play with 2 DC or 2 FC vs 1 1 FC or 1 DC? Or is not important? thanks!

We need more answers in the "Advanced tutorial"!

Good evening! Is there any way for the game to send me an email notification (not only in-game) when another player makes a higher bid than mine for a scout, physio, or coach?

No.
@tegimus this is a good suggestion for a feature for members

Any news on the game development?

This is a rough plan down the road. I know things look a bit delayed due to some mess up we did in setting up the framework for the new backend. But all well now and work is progressing at pace.

1. New user interface and backend
We are completely focused on this now, and all other work will be pending until this is done and rolled out. User interface doesn't mean anything fancy, but simpler and easier to use. Also backend is being rewritten in better technology for faster access and to lay down foundation for a mobile app in the near future. Website will also enable multiple languages, we are planning to launch with two languages with the framework in place to add more languages easily down the road.

Estimated deadline is season 40 give or take a couple of seasons. We had planned this for season 36 but unfortunately we are behind schedule.

2. Match simulator update
This will be a complete rework of the current match engine, which is already in progress. We were looking at the possibility of a 2d viewer but that looks not possible at this point, but we will be trying to include some kind of graphics too to make the match reports better. New sim will take care of a lot of drawbacks in the current simulator - like fixing the fitness/stamina model and giving more importance to tactics. This should be ready within 2-3 seasons after the user interface launch.

3. Other Features
There are plenty on our list, but major are updates to the staff system, team facility time and costs updates, more uses for medical centre etc. These will be done and launched as seasonal updates as we used to do before, we were pushing new updates every season or every other season until we started working on the major UI update.

And apologies for no updates for the past few seasons, hopefully the game will see big improvements in the near future.

Tegimus, it's been a while after your last post :)
Would it be possibile for you to share an update on game development? :)

We are close and on the right track, but slower than expected.
One major reason that we lost some time is trying to work out a way to show match report in 2D, but it is not going well at the moment due to heavy database/server requirements. So we have finally decided to keep it aside for later.

We should be able to start testing it on staging server soon, but not giving any deadlines as we have already missed two deadlines. Apologize for that, but better to take time and make it good rather than rush the launch and run for tweaks later.

Also thinking of making a separate wiki/knowledgebase website for tutorials, any suggestions for that are welcome.

Hi,

If I don't input new players i.e. i don't buy, i don't promote youth.
and my players keep retiring every season

No. The system will give you some rubbish players to keep your squad at atleast 16 players.

Rubbish, very old and low ratings. And their value is always set to zero, so no free money. If you want to see what kind of players they are, check bot teams and look for players with zero value.

saw them in bot teams, understood, thanks for clarifying

How do I lose to someone that's worse than me? I mean, I get there being random outcomes sometimes but WHAT!! Im 45 rated beaten by a 39 rated team? Then, I get beaten by a 40 rated team. Now I know that sometimes your players get injured so you don't have the best guys, but none of my guys were injured and I played all of my best guys. My team rating was at the max. SO HOW DO I LOSE TO TEAMS THAT ARE HORRIBLE!!!

It's not just the rating, there are plenty of other factors that will affect the outcome of the match. And higher rating always doesn't mean you are the better team, stamina and non-key attributes which don't count towards rating play an important part too.

Post your match here, and people here can try to analyze

You've only lost two games, both to higher-rated teams... but 39 is not that much worse than 45, especially if it's a road game, and certain teams in the 60s have always given me problems when my team was high 70s. You can't really tell much from a friendly, though. Most people are just throwing the collection of guys out there that need experience, which can make for weird formations that don't make sense, and weird results. One key mismatch can cost the better team.

I just got knocked out in the Challengers Trophy against Victoria but I don't know how.

1st match at home, we won 1-0

2nd match away, the other team were up 1-0 at full-time so it went into extra time. we scored and then they scored so final result was 2-1 to them.

So it ended with a win a piece and the aggregate score was 2-2. I don't know what the rules are but I think things should have gone to penalties or my team should have gone through.

Many Thanks

@Neil I think you should create a support ticket or DM tegimus. He might not see the forums often

@Tegimus
In the last 2 days I had 4 injuries but when I have medical center at max, I have in my staff a guy with max to the physiotherapy and always play with normal or easy intensity.
Is this a bug or something miss me?

Had a quick look at your matches, there seems to be nothing specific that lead to the injuries. There is a small random chance that injuries happen to players, the level of medical centre reduces that chance but do not completely remove it. Getting 4 injuries in quick span of time is purely bad luck, but usually with a maximum level of medical centre, you do not get more than 2-3 injuries a season on average if you keep all players at maximum fitness.
