Buying scout players

I think its unfair that when you pay 50 coins and so much game money for a scout player who ends up being useless.I know some players are better than others but you at least expect them to be half decent.And especially when a so called scout has picked these players.Ive sold 3 or 4 scout players wasting a lot of money because I can find better in the auctions,which is totally unfair.We should be able to choose our own scout players and then at least its our fault.If I could sack my scou I would because 50 coins is a lot of moneys worth and it starts taking the **** when you ve put your trust in the so called scout on 3 or 4 occassions...THIS SHOULD BE CHANGED FOR A BETTER GAMING EXPERIENCE AND PUT THE POWER INTO OUR HANDS,AFTER ALL IT IS OUR MONEY......pLEASE WOULD YOU ALL WHO ARGREE ADD YOUR VEIWS AND IDEAS TO THIS BLOG SO WE CAN GET A CHANGE IN THIS BRILLIANT FOOTBALL MANAGER GAME..THANKS MR:mad: Ian Davies manager and owner of KEANEROY UNITED FC....NOT SAYING ALL ARE USELESS AND IM TRYING TO SAY IS WE SHOULD HAVE MORE CHOICE AND WE BE PART OF THE SCOUTING PROCESS..

I am surprised you have such bad experience with scouts because every one that I bought (around 10) have been great.

Sorry Ian, I have to agree with magic3. I havent had a duck and I usually buy one scout a season, except for this past one as I stopped paying $10/month.

You cant possibly buy a better player in the TM as none of them are 6*. They may perform better, which is probably what you are saying, but the odds are that they should be the best players on your team.

50T is a bit much, we almost all agree. Of course someone always pipes in that they have to be that expensive or you would easily have a team of scouts on the cheap.

This was my suggestion that I'm sure will not yield to anything but would make this game much more fun IMO.

im with the others here. All my scout players have always been excellent and worthy purchases. but i only ever buy the best one or two on the list that are 22-24 years old and as few skill points away from 7* as possible

Yeah I'd like to see a tiered cost in tokens in scouts, why does it cost the same 50T to buy a 22 year old 4/9 player compared to a 29 year old player that is barely 6*?

This is what I think the price of scout players should be like on this table below...

Currently 50T gets you the finest of scouts and the worst ones as well, I'd price scouts on a tier such as this, people paying for a premium for the best scout players while the worst players are more affordable to everyone...

This could be extended to 18-21 year old players costing much more than your average scout barring the low-end quality ones.

Regardless of the prices, anything higher than 50T is pricing Joe Plumber out of the market. I already quit buying tokens and will most likely never buy a scout again if they get more expensive.

If they were to implement your scale, there would be a glut of 4/9, 3/8, 22/23yo and not much choice of the others. Cuz thats how Nordeus rolls! #really?REALLY?

If I saw a scout list full of 22 year old's and 4/9 players all for 70T each I'd fill my boots. I was producing a table that values each scout in relative value due to age and quality, similar to the different token prices on youths you get from the academy, If they are going to make the older crapper scouts cheaper, then they will need to make the younger quality scouts more expensive to balance out the 50T per scout that they are currently receiving.

Looking at the table, apart from the optimum scouts most of the players on the list would be cheaper.

ok that make some of you happy but it won't make Nordeus more profit even worse and token will lost his real money value. i think it 'd better to suggest nordeus creat an button refresh the liste with an amount of 5T, many of you will click it and when you see a player you want, you ' ll buy him. You are happy, Nordeus happy, that's the way make a proposition possible

Yeah my TM isn't that great either. everyone at the start of the season sells their rejects to lower levels and most of the time after that my market is mainly 3*, there are getting less teams above me to sell to us every season AND there never any fast young trainers for me to buy to power train at any given moment now. Last 3 seasons there was only THREE 5* young players at the start of the season that the server generated to bid on. It's becoming a problem now for us.
