Is TE unfair??

[khris]

Who said that the big clubs never have an off day or a weird day? I'm talking about two consecutive seasons, not a single match. Its ok for me if I lose like 5 matches in a season. But its totally unfair when you never play against an opponent with better quality than yours, and still win NO TITLES!

"I have been addicted to TE"

Caution with that, after 8 seasons I started tanking when had the feeling that I lost the control a little bit.
Now I play 2 and tank 2 usually, now T11 and ma time without T11 is balanced.

look, If you are spending 600 tokens a season and winning nothing you cannot throw your toys out of the pram and shout 'its not fair!!!' you need to review your entire formation and set up. And also review what you are spending tokens on. Only choose the very best scout players with special abilities that are useful. no point having 4 corner specialists... buy top youngsters and power train them.

if you gave me 600 tokens at the start of the season I guarantee you at the end of the season I could show you at least a league title and a champions league title. with that many tokens I might even have a shot at the cup too!

so the big clubs never have an off day or a weird day? if the top rated team won every single game, why would anyone want to play?

I 'm not saying this. I mean (by random or good/bad day) that the game doesn't give us enough evidence/clues/knowledge to be more managerial or coach better our teams or fix our mistakes and improve our team.
I 'm playing the game one year, winning a lot of trophies and still don't know how is working :
- the rating system
- a good player become all of sudden a bad performer (in a new season or in the middle of it)
- how I can prevent it or reverse it
- if special abilities has any function
- how critical is the formation in a match (I know, many will answer, that yes - but then, why playing a 4-4-2 ND, my AMC and two ST with better q couldn't won 1 oppo DC ?)
- how a player is performing with or without arrows
- what is the effect playing with hard/normal/easy tackling (same for offside, man to man/zonal)
- how the win bonus affect the performance and what is the role of morale
- why I have (or not sometimes) so many injuries

If we don't know sooo many basics of the game, I cannot judge another player if he is good manager or coach.

Parity rarely exists both in nature and human society. A better question would be, is T11 balanced?

And the answer is yes, but only early on in the game. I don't think this game is fully pay-to win because random chance and superior tactics still have an effect on match results. Easier to blame Nordeus and keep spending tokens than admit you got tactically outplayed.

I too like to base past performances as a basis to buy a player. With Scouts, I know it is a throw of the dice as you are buying unproven "talent" but not performance.

Here's my take on negotiating or even buying players off TM that has good track records. They will suddenly not perform once they sign for you and this is because maybe

1. Orders and formation is different.
2. They are simply past it.

Unless you use the same formation or type formation eg. lone striker vs pair you are more likely to destroy the player.

nikolgiorgos great summery of some of the big questions of this game. I guess we all hunger at least some indicators from Nordeus to how these work/play/influence the game engine

[HoofDaddy]

If you are winning, you are doing it right, that's all I know lol

I noticed this yesterday (that this is really bad),
my team was fit , i was there(i am almost always online when i need to play) i was against a lesser team,

and i lost big time..(strat yes)
the fun was gone and it still is, i deleted it yesterday so pissed of was i..

and to think of i am only in lv13..

[Buffs Mad]

The old thorny issue. As Nik says the game doesn't give us enough stats appropriate for team/player management.

What interests me is however why we don't ask questions about the 'simple' things eg What does Attacking do?

But then again if we were told would we believe it?

PS. We have been told the function of special abilities (just not the extent of the impact) and we have been told what arrows do.....which brings me back to my latter point, belief.

Manager: "Tell me the truth.
Dev: You can't handle the truth.

PPS. No its not fair.

Is there ever a answer from a developer and or Admin on here ?
cause not much use for me to come back to this forum..

i find it a bit odd, that i see people here that complain from left to right(and that is fine on a pos).. but still play this POS !! (apparently).
i guess it is time to hit the delete button again...
