And they talked about preserving the prestige of the National League. Playing seconds in national league makes it less prestigious :'D So funny

the whole poll was used to push as less weeks as possible and not to hear what users want. making statement like this on compromised poll is really bad thing

It will not be less prestigious. We are already playing B teams in National Cup, that wont change. Just national cup prestige will be low as it is now.
This can be changed only by not attaching the training to matches played. And i am torn about it. There is no good solution for this.

National League, not national cup :) B team in national cup will only work for as long as you are in it, after that, it is B-team in every 2nd national League match to get "full" training

Rather this and two more:) sorry to keep you waiting, but we need to make sure it will work.

I get it...too many unknowns....it is not a problem :)

but it is still a possability of just this and next one? it would be great if you could say when will be decision of when is that day D :)

CL is still in the plans?

Love that the "vote", or even that any changes were occurring, was never even spread around by the DEVs to 43/58 (75%) of country's with 40 people or less. It's definitely a good way to sway things your way, not that it was needed with bogus votes and results.

That and option 2 was never presented in the way that the community proposed it.

Dev. Diary 2: MAIN ASSUMPTIONS


Play to win – The current game mechanism is demotivating for players focused on results. We will propose some solutions to change that, giving extra motivations for winning, new official competitions to fight in. One of the biggest issues is, that club development is possible only by using a second match in the week for training. That lead us to some upgrades about the training system (but one training update per week on Thursday will not change). Our new idea is to avoid forcing managers to let all their players play for training.


They forgot implemeted this point....

We will inform you as soon as we will be sure about it. It's to early for now:)

CL - yes, it is, we will work on it and decide if we move for now with current formula, or we will test some new international cup idea that will be a potential frame for additional competition for most of users in future.

The one thing that poll stated that you cannot have clear winner if you do not have good and clear solution. You cannot force solution with less than 30 % basically what happen the poll was divide and conquer ...

I am not 100% happy with all the changes, but this is a good solution.

Training is gonna be fine, the percentages proposed by Raul are not written in stone. That is yet to be decided.

International Cups were lame, good riddance.

I will ask you if you will train young players and want to play league, cup, international league for win....

I will not play inter. league since it will not exist.

I will train youngsters and compete at a high level. I am doing it now, and will be doing with the new system.
I will train 10 players, and my goal will be to win the first division every season.

Now I have to sacrifice 5 spots in my first squad so that 5 trainees can get full training.
With the new system, I need to sacrifice only 3 so that 6 trainees can get full training.

Forget about the international league it will not exist fortunately.

As for now, you will be able to train your young players in the national cup games...

he is not better than Gočár who was "only" unearthly. But what surprises me is that there were several bids this high and it is not in some wild bidwar but two days before deadline.

He came out as unearthly, but with sumskill 55 he was probably misjudged divine.

Sorry for my late reply..

I will have to catch up with the information, but for now please enlighten me: the idea with the international cup/league was to push-in all the teams or just the national champions? the earliest has no sense nor fun.

I understand the loss aversion (in this case "change aversion", but it implies the same), it is natural in humans. However, I do believe the game needed some fresh air, and the devs are doing what they think is the best, let's give it a try... we are prototyping here as community and if it doesn't work, we could change again, but if this works I would like some sokker stocks in my portfolio.

changing topics:

Are you planing to change the forum system? I think it is outdated and doesn't help to build community these days.

Are you planing to change the transfers system?

All teams were supposed to play in one of the international cups. More than 100 cups.
