I agree, I used to save up all my skill points of a day, sometimes 2. To ensure I could make sure that my player got improvement on the area I really wanted.....For example with strikers, everything with 1 skill point, it would end up at aggression??? or while I wanted speed for example. By saving up the skillpoints, It will still not necesary go to speed, but it had a higher probablity.
When I started playing I used to do 1 point at a time, resulting usually players that progressed on all the area I didnt prefer..Very agrresive players, that collected yellow and red cards like they were pieces of art.
Once I start saving my point up it felt to be better, even though Nordeus uses caps to limit certain aspects. 20 max difference between attack and defence for example.While in my opinion, the best strikers dont need to be able to defend...they need to be the very best in attacking. However that was allready restricted, Now its not only restricted but also the course of improvement is even more determined by Nordeus.
Ive been reading on the forums the last few days, and not once have I heard a clear response from the developers why they chose to do so.....Thats a pity because it only confirms what many allready are thinking, Its all about the tokens, for the rest *&^% all......
