Should there be a limit to how much real money you can spend?

[Tommy Vernersson]

I am a big fan of top eleven and I'm in my fourth season. My team is doing quite well at the moment (touch wood) but I never seem to have many tokens to bid for better players or speed up builds etc. so I'm sometimes tempted to buy tokens with my real money or get free tokens via tapjoy. This is all very well and good but, to really get any serious tokens from tapjoy you have to spend money on some subscription you don't want or need and it's £70 if you want enough tokens to improve every player and build the best stadium possible. Who can afford £70 these days to throw away for a game on your phone? You May say it's the same for everyone you have the choice to spend your own money in the game if you want to, but here's my problem, some people take it to the extreme spending £100's plus of their real money on making their team the best on the game absolutely unstoppable, having the best stadium etc. I don't think this is fair on the rest of is who simply cannot compete because we can't afford to shell out on tokens, I think there should be a limit to what you can spend in the game so it's fairer for everyone. Maybe it's just me who thinks this, what do you think?

It's a tough question man. I was like you my first season, I didn't want to spend real money on a game. I end up winning the league anyways. But then in the 2nd season i put in $100. And those money have made my team very good. I win easily over lvl 4-5 people. It's all about how fun you think this game is. I mean - some ppl buy xbox game for those money, or other stuff. I don't buy anything because i am not a technique nerd. So $100 bucks for me is nothing. But for those money you get yourself a dream team in T11.. atleast in season 2 as i am in now. Anyways (it is unfair that token buyers and none token buyers play in the same leagues and competitions.)

Although it would be impractical to separate them, without major changes.

Yes I know. The best and most fun way to change the whole system would be to completely take away tokens. You buy players from the money you got. Just as in real football. U can bid as much as u want as long u got money for it. Tokens destroys the game according to me.

IMO, league teams are not chosen by quality. If you have a team full of 9* players, 99% chance you will be the only one with 9* players in the whole league. The rest will be 3* 4* and a few 5*.

Well anyone can play anyway they want. If they wanna win with a team of 9*, sure. But where's the fun?

If that's the case then yes, I'd agree with you, that it's probably more fun to try and win against opponents of a similar level.

What you should ask yourself is what your target is each season?

Is it worth spending money to achieve a pixel on a screen that says you have won a virtual trophy or not?

I do think that without spending any money or even farming it is quite easy to be competitive enough to finish in a top 7 position most seasons, with maybe a season of tanking or failing every few months.

What you should think about is if you are level 10 for example, you could literally spend thousands on a team to get every player to be 9 star - yet someone at level 13 who has never spent a single penny would be able to have a better team than you. Someone at level 20 would have a better team than you regardless.

At the top end of the server teams are being denied promotion due to there not being enough teams to create a higher league. If you get past level 30 then chances are soon you are going to be held back due to this. So the question should be is it worth spending money on a game where the top level is still achievable for everyone over time without spending money - and spending money won't get you to that top level any quicker?

The game has too many faults in it to make it worth spending money on in my opinion. I could understand someone spending the odd £10 here or there for a bit of fun, but when I see some people who have devoted a hell of a lot of money to get teams full of 9 star players I actually think its quite tragic. I had a team in my league a few seasons ago that did that. He finished first in the league, I finished second. We both got promoted. 4 months later he has given up and his team is now a dead one. The money he spent on that team to get that first place is now nothing but a waste.

I think it's important to remember that, no matter how good the teams you face in the league/CL, the Cup puts you against teams of a similar quality (squad, not first team) so you have a chance to win a trophy.

It's also important to remember that 'scout' list players will stay in your team 4-5 seasons, at the most, if you are getting promoted every year and aim for a 5* squad by the end of each season. Therefore, if you're spending $100, that puts you ahead of your competitors for a couple of seasons, but then you need to spend another $100...

If that's how you choose to spend your money, good for you. I'll feed my son, decorate my house and farm the tokens, because that's my priority. My friend spends £70 on here every month, without fail. We're in the same league/CL and he beats me, maybe, 60% of the time. But it costs him a lot to do it.

The crucial thing to remember is that having the best team doesn't guarantee success...a fact which upsets many T11 players. And 'scout' list players aren't guaranteed performers, either. There are, so they say, around 15% of these players who are duds. I've had several. It's annoying, but it's the game.

Also, I'm willing to bet those who spend more money on tokens get more injuries (a leveller in the game) and buy more treatments.

But I agree that there should be no limit. I've never seen a maximum spend sign in a shop and that's what the T11 token tab is.

I do spend $100 for each season. But you talk about feeding your son? 100 bucks is money for 8 pizza in Sweden. Not alot of money, and i don't mean that ur gonna feed ur kid with pizza Everybody play differently, I for example doesnt buy red packs because then all realism dissapears. And i dont train my players to 9*. I buy myself good players and then i train them normally. And my goal is to only have youngsters which i do right now and its only my 2nd season, so i probably wont even need to hand in more money for season 3 since my team i have atm would do good there aswell.

This is a monetizing app for Facebook, don't be naive. They all work in the same way,

You either play without any expectations or you just empty your pockets of precious money for a bunch of pixels.

[masterlin]

Anyone is allowed to spend any amount of money they want. That's not my point.

Sure, treble every season sounds great! But where's the fun? It'll be like having 5* team and facing 1* teams non-stop!

The game would be boring as hell.

Why would I spend thousands of dollars for no fun?

Just my opinion.
