forameuss Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 i find it worrying that people complain about things that arent a problem, like through balls from the centre of the park and strikers not scoring enough goals, both problems are debunked in my current save, season 8 my amc playmaker finshed with 25 assists and my lone striker scored 64 goals.....which again worries me the next match engine is going to be an absolute disaster. I wouldn't worry. If it's genuinely an issue - in SI's eyes that is - then it should be fixed, and will be to the best of their abilities. If it's just tactical and/or bad luck, then it won't. They're not just going to take who shouts the loudest and do what they want with the ME. The injury system is testament to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The injury system is testament to that. yes i really hope so, because alot people are to quick to condem patches, there are some things i do agree with like the crossing being slightly overpowered and to accurate imo, especially from wing backs. but as i pointed out not everything complained about is so cut and dry, my example i used took 8 seasons of gameplay to finally see the power of central through balls, where most people quit after 1 season then complain.

iAlwaysWin Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 64 goals from a lone striker has to be an issue. i wouldnt say so since this is the first time in 8 seasons that ive had a striker get anywhere near this kind of tally, but surprising enough due to his prolific season my wingers who normally get 20 to 30 goals each btw have had a significant drop in there return in terms of goals but increased there assist tally, basically my striker has scored the majority of my goals this season.

netking Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 He's at the top of the game with Spurs. And is Captain. He IS the man. I guarantee Monaco won't top his wages, we are the richest club in the world, so that's not a reason. If he wanted a new challenge there's an option for him to say that. If he was homesick and wanted to go home, there's an option for that. There is no way moving to Monaco is a good career move for him. The only clubs I'd accept as that for him (in my game world) are Barca, Real, Bayern, Juve and maybe PSG. None of those want him. No. It's a team who finished 5th in Ligue 1 and are on course for the same this year. There's no logic in this, so please don't try and make excuses for the game. Interaction is STILL a mess.EDIT: It should also be noted that his only favoured club is OGC Nice (supporter). Guess who their fiercest rivals are? Yep, Monaco. Considering that you have a capable backup, AND that Monaco are finishing 5th, he is not so important to you (his backup could easily step in) and Monaco are probably in desperate need for a GK (making him vital). Would that explain it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 3 seasons (the period of time it took me to develop young talent, and constantly be in the semi final/final of the UCL) my striker started scoreing 82, 76, 87 goals. right full back finished with 36 assists. I play an Inside forward and a winger, they dont have more than 16 goals a season. All this comes down to how overpowered crosses are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danchinaski Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 One minor issue that's riling me is that there is little benefit in having a member of the coaching staff doing two jobs. For example, I can have a DoF have a secondary role as a coach, but this takes up a place of the allowed coaching staff, when it actually shouldn't. If I'm allowed, say, two coaches and one DoF, the fact that the DoF also coaches should mean I'm still allowed two coaches. Otherwise, what's the point? I'm currently testing a lower-league database thingy, and I've employed an Assistant Manager with the secondary role of HOYD. The only benefit of doing this is that it saves money in the staff budget that I'm allocated, yet I can't use this budget elsewhere amongst coaching staff.

Guest Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The benefit is in saving your club money, in the lower leagues this is imho much more important than long term player development. Another factor is you might not be able to find a suitable candidate for a specific role but have good enough option already at the club so you offer them a dual role. As with everything decision there is an element of compromise to consider, your job is to weigh up the pros & cons before making a choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Moran Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I wrote this in another thread, but the right place is maybe here: I play with Dortmund and I'm in the 2018/2019 season and I'm swimming in money. The budget for the next season is almost 250 million € (transfer+wage open). I may be successful (going to win the Bundesliag 3rd time in a row now, but not really in the UCL) for a Dortmund side, so that the sponsorship money raised, but that is a sum, that will never be reached by Dortmund. The same is going on with other clubs in the Bundesliga, like Schalke, who are spending 50 million in one season (out of my head). It's almost like germany got the same tv-deal like the premier league! This is taking the fun out of the game, for me at least. There is no point to go from germany to england, when the money is already the same. I just signed Pogba for the next season and have enough money to buy Gaya and Goertzka, too. It would be nice, if SI could look over that again, maybe even before the next patch comes out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Twilight Sparkle Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 They don't ask for the next sale or etc clauses, just more money than the other clubs.

Guest Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 That's why I'd recommended locking the up front fee to £2.3m so that it matches the offers already in, much more likely to get to the fee you want. Right now the AI is trying to run up the value of late bids, I believe there is a bug in the strict application of this which is why the AI are starting negotiations at such a high level.

Silver Twilight Sparkle Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 It's not really a late bid, you can see in the pic that my transfer was rejected and the others were accepted, i was actually the first one to bid. Tried again and they rejected to continue negotiating and asked for me to make an offer, they rejected it: EDIT: Renegotiated higher but even then they don't want to accept, even if it is higher than Renes or Leganés offer.

s1111 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Dortmund start the game with £95m in the bank balance (only Bayern, Man Utd and Arsenal have more), no debts, the biggest attendances in the world, big sponsorship deals and a relatively low wage bill compared to the super rich clubs.

I can't then offer my DoF a dual role as a coach because there are already two coaches at the club, even though this wouldn't have any impact on the budget for my coaching team.

Sunstrikuuu Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Resigning doesn't affect your rep score so that pretty much is the I'm leaving option.I do agree that that it would be a bonus if that option was available earlier but given the potential downside of players not giving their all for you I don't think anyone would use the option once they realise there's no upside. Resigning does however mean that in job interviews and press interactions you have to explain why you resigned. "Came to the end of my contract" is not an available response. The annoyance factor is exacerbated by bigger teams' unwillingness to negotiate contracts. As an example, Bayern proposed contract talks with me at £49.5kpw for 4 years, then cancelled negotiations after a counteroffer of £55kpw for 4 years. Really there's no upside to any of the contract negotiation situation at present. It's just a screen that you click accept on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the bigger issue is how nonsensical it is. I'm managing Bayern right now. Our cash balance is approximately £160m. My transfer budget is £140m. I have the authority to spend 87.5% of the club's bank account, but they won't give me an additional £500 pounds per week. I can spend £8m on an 18 year old from the US who's never played for the first-team, but if I want a three-year deal instead of four, that's totally unacceptable. On the Bayern note, there is something weird with German transfer budgets. I started the season with £21m in the so-called war chest. Sometime after the August window closed and the January window started, it increased to £34m. Then I got a notice saying that my budget was increasing due to improved financial circumstances; it went up to £42m. In January, I sold Javi Martinez for £27m. After the January window closed, I got another identical notice that raised my budget to £140m. Looking at the graphs in the financial and boardroom tabs, I don't see anything that would indicate any changes in the financial stability of the team.
