I am officially calling this season my last, and I feel that I should post why, seeing as I've been playing this nearly almost 3 and a half years, but really enough is enough.
This past year, Nordeus has managed to completely ruin the game for me, and many others, and it just keeps getting worse.
The new transfer market definitely took a lot of fun out of the game. Your players aren't sold to humans anymore, which is retarded, and you can only buy players from the system, also retarded. Not to mention now we have to compete with players of all levels for the same players, which makes absolutely no sense, and did nothing but cause massive bidding wars. You can no longer pick up an older player cheap to fill a need for a few tokens, it's either big bucks, or buy a 4 star and pour greens on him and hope for the best. Essentially this made the TM unusable in the long term.
I used to love Day 1, staying up all night searching for players, monitoring the auctions, and trying to build my team for the next season. That experience is gone.
Now this new version just ruined everything. This is such a dumpster fire I don't even know where to begin. The 2 main problems are the huge amounts of bugs. Every time I do something it's just one new bug after another, and it's now been over 2 weeks and they still haven't fixed anything. This is completely unacceptable. If the new version was this bad, and obviously not ready for release, why was it released? Nordeus, you make this mistake time and time again, you rush to release something that isn't finished, and it's a disaster. Remember all the problems with Associations? Did you not learn anything from that? Clearly not since I'm watching it again, except this time it's not just affecting a side game, it's affecting the main game and there's no way around it. On top of that, I am getting frequent disconnects, especially during matches, and failures to log in. No it's not my internet, and this has never happened before until this version.
The other major problem right now is that the results are just completely random. I am not a guy who bitches and moans every time he loses a match. I understand that anything can happen, but it's just getting ridiculous. I'll beat a team 4-0 that is 15% better than me and think WOW! My team is great! then next match lose 3-0 to a team 5-10% weaker than me. Really? I'm not just talking about 1 or 2 silly results, it's like there is no flow to anything that is going on anymore. It's not just me that is saying this, many of my friends, and other managers are saying the same thing here, that the results are completely bizarre and make no sense, and just feel like everything going on is just random.
I don't expect to win every time.
I DO however, expect what is going on to at least feel like it makes sense. I DO expect to play a game that doesn't feel like work. I DO expect to play a game that isn't so full of bugs that you can't do anything without finding one, and finally I DO expect to play a game that doesn't disconnect me during half my matches. Am I asking too much? I don't think I am, but unfortunately this game is failing on all of those at the moment, and I have too much other things going on in life to deal with it anymore.
