manutdthereds Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ok I have just broken through the 1000 games mark, I won it 2-0 and all is great. In the lead up to the game, there was a small remark about it being my 1000'th game (which I expected as it was the same way in 08), this is good, I just think that something like this should be really shouted out a lot more you know ? If there was some way to identify personal stats such as games won/goal scored/personal relationships with other managers who maybe make a comment/players who you are close to commenting on how proud they are. I dont know, I just think that for this kind of major event in future games there could be a bigger deal. Its not like it would get repetitive, a thousand'th game doesnt happen very often !!

Glenn Wakeford Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I agree, the game could do with highlighting the bigger events better. It does feel like they kind of pass you by sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
manutdthereds Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Yea totally right... Not complaining at all, as you can tell by the amount I have played lol, but you are right it just kinda comes and then....gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I agree, for me its kind of the same with cup finals aswell. You can hardly tell its an important game like! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes_83 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 It totally feels like they pass you by. I won the champions league final and it was very mellow dramatic and very disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
manutdthereds Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Well this time around I put my assistant manager in charge of team talks before the game, and it said this: 'Popular manager Woodman is set to crack the 1,000th game mark as manager when The Baggies play at The Hawthorns on Saturday. Interviewed for the press, Woodman's right-hand man Fábio Mahseredjian commented that Chris is truly the leader of the club and everything that happens at West Brom comes from him.' Now I do love Mahseredjian for saying it, but there was nothing after the game having won it or anything. Shame No worries though, have to plough on to 2000 games now !!!

Glenn Wakeford Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 So we've established that the user can get lost or have major events pass them by too easily. But how do we make these events bigger? Excluding more news items of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn Wakeford Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 By improving the current news system How? It's very easy to say an area of a game needs working on but it's another thing providing a way that it can actually be achieved... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPlanet Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Go back to the way it was before, would like to see more news in the inbox. More fuss before and after big games would be a welcome addition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-Bantam Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 maybe there could be like a small review of the achievements in the time including like record wins, trophies etc... comments by players and former players etc? i dont know just a suggestion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ah Fat Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Maybe there can be a birthday celebration for the player manager, picking those players who have the player manager as their favourite personal to present a "birthday gift"... in text.

grahamf Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Maybe have the players react to it like any other media event, some players getting motivated to do well for you, others feel the pressure etc. If you make a big deal about it in a press conference some players may feel your failing to focus on the match, things like that. Opposition managers could also comment on it, praising you or hoping to spoil the party. These are all off the top of my head but could make a difference to milestones rather than just being a passing news item. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cizko Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 How? It's very easy to say an area of a game needs working on but it's another thing providing a way that it can actually be achieved... Make it part of the match engine, maybe some more stuff, or acknowledgment right before the kickoff or after the game. For example it would be pretty to recieve the cup after the champions cup final etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
makelele696 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 testimonials could be added - players and managers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
makelele696 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 for cup finals: - have written expectations from former players, possibly score predictions - same for fans and possibly other managers - like the managers of the teams beaten in the semi's have their view on the match which could be affected by whether they like you or not as well - and have an indepth analysis prior to the match maybe key player v key player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamweesel Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 How? It's very easy to say an area of a game needs working on but it's another thing providing a way that it can actually be achieved... I have said it many teams,that I think that there should a website type news system implemented into the game.Easy browsing and much much more information,in lesser pages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
makelele696 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 if the game has the memory - at the 1000 game mark - best match result, low point, best transfer/ worst transfer and the lark? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
city321 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Maybe they could add a manager stats bit on the league table alongside player and team stats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes_83 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I would like to see the game, the players, and other managers make more of a reference to the accomplishment rather than just having the moment come and go and seemingly never be mentioned again. I won the ECC in 2012 and honestly the only memoir I have of it is a little "2012" writing beside ECC in the team history page. I think if the news items made more a reference to the victory in the following year or two it would help. Perhaps have some players of managers make comments about their fear of playing you seeing as you reigning champions, etc... I also think the finances and sponsorship should be affected more with a huge win. Not to say the finances aren't right now but the game doesn't do a great job of letting you know about all of riches and other good things that come from the big win. Also I think that the news items should reflect how big the competition is. When I win the league cup I get the same feeling as when I win the ECC.

makelele696 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 in cup finals - in the build up goals that got you to the cup final.... but that would be a bit odd in the Champions League with a minimum of 13 games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
