Developer Blog - The new medals system

[Marc Duffy]

One of the things we wanted to make sure we did over the course of a relaunch was to ensure that everyone was able to take with them a record of what they had achieved in their previous gameworlds.

To do this, we’ve expanded on the current achievements system and created a brand new set of manager achievements in the form of medals.

Er.. you did a screen shot of achievements rather than medals...?

[Mustang Shooting Stars]

Looks really good.

Will the official past league titles and cups we have won also be carried over in some way? I would like it, but don't mind that much. But it'd be fun to see people's past trophies

[Liniert]

anyone else getting the construction medal? i have a stadium with 208,000 capacity, so do i get two?

[equilibrium]

Purple Heart (Suffered at least 300 injuries per week signed up): if this only counts injuries stuck I doubt anyone starting after 1.5 will ever earn it.

[Carlos Bentonious]

I have just transferred to Jacket from Lofthouse to be with a couple of mates when the restart happens. Does this mean all of my previous achievements have been wiped?

[W0MS]

No medal for being ranked no.1 in a GW? I'm appalled! :-0

[Eldonko]

Cool idea, I like it but I agree with ^^ that there should be one for being ranked #1. Ive never accomplished that and have been trying since launch.

[Túrin]

Weird question for you guys:

I was banned from Hoddle a while back - had alot of trophies, will I still get the medals?

(Said account is still active in St John).


Cheers.

Hi Marc,

quick question: If I am changing GW am I taking my record from previous GW?
Thanks

[Marc Duffy]

Yes that's right.

[Túrin]

Any answer to my question Marc?

Cheers.

Any answer to my question Marc?

Cheers.

Hey there Matt buddy- naughty naughty lol- Similar question- what about awards? I had a rather empty trophy cabinet in St John- then moved to Greaves- then moved back to St John- while I hadnt won much I did have a sack full of awards (Managers and Community Manager and the like) - does some indication of them come to the new worlds with me or just my tactical prowess and winning personality

[Gerara]

I have a question Marc.
Wll 1.5 introduce Medals for our past achievements and will these medals be lost after the re-launch?

[Neil_Roberts]

If you win a major trophy more than once, such as the gold cup, will this be recognised or just show that you have won it once?

[Gonzo67]

Not sure the medals I have reflect my entire history because I was a founding member of metgod and achieved a high ranking position. Also i have had a few World famous players in squad both in Metgod and Clough and no medal for that.

[Thorstein]

I'm missing a few medals I think I should have - now what?

•Medal of Construction (Have a stadium with at least 100,000 capacity)
•Cup Winner (won an official cup competition)
•Silver Cup Winner


Any chance there are medals added? For example the mentioned Ranking award?

[Shiv3r]

The other thing - there is no medal about winning Premiership (Top FA League), few times would be ok. FA leagues are very important, right?

This is more something I can see being added to the medals post reset. Leagues (After the reset) are now one hell of a lot more important than they ever were prior to the recent changes.

should I submit a ticket?

[Rb]

Its a bug rather than a ticket

[Thorstein]

Should I report a bug then?

Or are people on it already...

[Ben Kenney]

I will pass your concerns on to be looked into.

Cheers

[Gerara]

Will medals be transfered into the new Gameworlds starting next week?

[JD1866]

Im due the 300k wage Medal, had wages at this for most of the last week yet no medal Expecting the 100k capacity stadium medal later.

I know other medals are updating ie one of my friends got the 50 million cash medal the other day... :/

[Thorstein]

Are medals btw a running thing? IE if I don't have the medal for GW champion yet, can I get one if I become it in my new GW?

[W0MS]

So are the medals bugged then? I'm missing a few I reckon :-)
I think it would be good to see what medals you don't have ingame as well so you can aim towards getting them.

[Thorstein]

Can I expect all my hard earned medals now, or is it still unclear why I wasn't accounted for them?
I could ofcourse have some patience and see for myself, but a bit excited about the new beginning and fear that I will need all time available to screen my squad

If we've got some of the medals wrong, we can fix them post reset - just make sure you get a ticket in with support please.

Yes, they are a running thing. They'll unlock much the same way as achievements do.

[Thorstein]

will do, thanks for the heads up, can imagine you are busy at the moment :d

[Marc Duffy]

Just a little. The issue you raised is of course a problem but fixable so bear with us.

[Thorstein]

Yes, they are a running thing. They'll unlock much the same way as achievements do.

O, next question, will there be a distinction between medals earned in your old GW and medals earned in your new one? (thus can you get 2 of the same medals in two (or more) GW's).

Would be fun if you became GW champion in each and every GW

[Gerara]

I'm afraid you may need to wait a little while longer Gerrara, but rest assured they will get around to sorting your issue

I haven't heard anything for almost a week, am I being impatient?

[Thorstein]

I haven't heard anything for almost a week, am I being impatient?

...or ignored:/?

[Thorstein]

...or ignored:/?

Does that mean yes? If I shouldn't bother to check if something has been done or known for the coming days, please say so....

O, BTW, I won't be cancelling my subscription anytime soon, but that doesn't mean I don't want my medals

[Thorstein]

I guess so?!

[Thorstein]

I haven't heard anything for two weeks, am I being impatient?

Anybody here?

[Marc Duffy]

I'm here, I couldnt see your ticket in the system but now I know why - it was set to closed.

It's reopened and a reply is waiting for you!!

[Thorstein]

/wave

thanks for the update, sorry for nagging
would have been very happy with something like 'we hope to be able to answer you in a week or 2'
I'll check my mail

(funny, I now realize I check FML forums before my own mailaccount )

[Thorstein]

any news, I'm feeling rather naked without my medals?!

[originalcheekyboy]

Is there a problem with the servers?....Cant log in .....told to check my internet connection....which is fine as Im on here posting this query lol

[Thorstein]

any news, I'm feeling rather naked without my medals?!

Is that a no?

[Thorstein]

to strengthen my case

[skegblade]

can any body explain why the game words are down,
and what time they will be back online

[Thorstein]

is that a running gag or something? hijack this thread with unrelated question about servers being down :/

[Thorstein]

hiyas, it's me again.
I was wondering, is my ticket reset everytime I post here?

[Thorstein]

/wave /wave

[rikstewart]

I'm going to guess that this thread isn't being monitored Thorstein. You'd be better off posting in the bugs forum or replying to your original ticket (which would reopen it if it was closed).

[Marc Duffy]

As long as you've got a ticket, that's great. This issue isnt high on the priority list right now but will get looked at.

[maxjam]

Just noticed that one of the medals I have, the FML Founders Medal has Cantona on the badge. Is this intentional or does the system think I was in Cantona at launch? I was actually in Clough and if it can be changed that would be good

[chris30]

comment jouer en reseaux a lfp??

[Thorstein]

I've submitted a ticket:

Did I miss something during my holiday?

[Rumour]

[Thorstein]

Never got them, but it supposed to be a bug that will soon be adressed. I've been informed recently, and it will be adressed, just not now
Luckily I do not use them daily
