    They need to ask themselves, if there are 6m monthly user, is it not better to get £1 month out of each one of them, than trying to squeeze as much as possible out of just a fraction of them.
    Almost every single player here could afford £1/month, yet very few can afford to pay the current rates for buying a player, promoting youths, keeping their players fit or even fielding a starting eleven. (The very basics of any manager sim)

    I've also noticed it is IMPOSSIBLE to keep your players at their star ratings.
    Once you buy a player, they will only ever get worse as you go up. You need 75 skill/training points per 28 day season just to keep their current level.
    Then you have two options:
    1) buy tokens to help training
    2) buy tokens to buy players.

    I've heard of games where coining it gives you a clear advantage, but being forced to spend money just to continue playing it is ridiculous. You only buy fifa once!
    This is about the only game where you cant even try to compete past a certain level unless you spend money.
    6m users paying £1/ month? or 10,000 paying £20 month? not to mention the obvious that 6m users being able to afford to compete, is far better than 2 million giving up because they cant. I can understand paying, but make it reasonable.
    As mentioned above, transfers are the biggest rip off. At least make it so only the winner parts with the tokens. On ebay, if you dont win, you dont pay! simples. You never know people may even use more tokens if they know it will be worthwhile!
    well said! congrats! hope developer reads this and action on this....

    Well, the problems don't seem to be that serious to me, but perhaps I'm lucky with the server I've been placed on. I'm buying close to a full squad every season working on 35 tokens/season.

    just curious, how many players can you buy in one season using 35 tokens? also if you are engaged in bidding war, which round do you stop bidding? in my server, i would be happy if i can get 3-4 players for 35 tokens. maybe if i buy towards the later part of season, i can get more players but not the high end 4-5 star players.

    I posted this in a thread before, not sure where it is now. This season I bought 18 players with at most 34 tokens. All were 5 star, mostly 82 and 83, and a couple were 81. My 5 star range is 80-84 btw. Bought a GK and a DC/DMC at 19 years old.

    I do not get myself into bidding wars. I bid 30 mins to 2 hours before deadline in the initial round. If 3 or more managers total make it to knockout round, I drop out straight away.

    The thing is, 5star players RARELY appear in the auction list. I have been trying to find 5 star players for the past week and only 1-2 appear each day. And whenever 5star players appear, there will be a whole bunch of players bidding for it.

    Vlad has answered you already. You and Vlad's friend are unlucky with server or level within the server. At any time when I go to the transfer market, there are at least 30+ 5 star players. I haven't checked at the end of the season, probably there'll be less.

    In my server, I'm level 13, Cup opponent for round of 16 is level 21.

    We need token sales and more value for tokens..

    I was hoping for a little Christmas token sale but no. If the £60 token pack gave us about 1500 tokens I'd actually buy it but 1017 isn't a lot considering how often we have to use them..

    I'd say value for tokens would be around 2,000 to 2,500 for the £60/$100 pack, Would allow managers to maintain teams by buying scouts at an affordable cost and tokens that could stretch months of playing. If someone was wise, the price of 500 tokens is more than buying Football Manager 2013. FIFA 13 can be also be bought around the cost of 500 tokens as well and both of these games comes with some degree of user customisation.

    agree to this. i bought 500 tokens for us$50. it lasted about 3 seasons, buying a few scouts in each of the season. some of the former scouts are getting 5-6 ratings consistently even though they are still 5 stars. not spending anymore. for the same amount of money, i can buy a pc game without spending a single cent anymore on that game.
