[Official] Changes to Displayed Quality

[Altiplano]

I swear to God I've got an albatross hanging from my neck!
4 seasons ago I tanked for the first time........that was the season Nordeus announced the end of association loans! Doh!
Same season, I bought a 3 star striker and began pumping him full of greens to create my very own mutant............You guessed it. They put the 340% cap in. Doh!
Last season I sold 4 players at 119% to manipulate the draw for the first time ever. It seems to have worked, but.......now this.
Is this going to affect draw manipulation? How? Why have they done this?
Where's the money?
Something smells fishy. And it ain't the breath from the albatross, cos it's dead.

Please, start exploiting the rest of the game, maybe then Nordeus will finally fix it

I saw such an update coming... Luckily enough, I've created a Libreoffice calc-sheet which analyses all my opponents I play against, considering just the real first eleven I'm facing. The only human interaction is putting in 33 numbers before every matchup, and even that would've been automated a long-time ago if Nordeus woudn't be so dick-headed about needing a god-damn Face-the-**** account which should be linked to play a god-damn browser game... Not in this lifetime, however, I'd rather drop dead...

Well, as I understand the game fix the last exploit manipulating the team average. But the main question still remains: How does this new average affect the result? Nordeus is not clear about it:

"This is a visual change that hasn't touched matchmaking at all."

What does "at all" means? In my case, I draw this two matches being favourite before and after this actualice... it sucks

this suggests the quality of the starting 11 has never made a difference as far as the results go, right?
surely if quality of your 11 did affect the outcome they wouldn't remove the ability to see it.

Hi Managers,

We've had a server release today that included changes to displayed quality. The percentage displayed now shows the quality of your Top 14 players. This was done to make it consistent everywhere.

NOTE: at the moment, your opponent's quality percentage will be consistent everywhere. Your own club's quality will be made consistent everywhere in-game with the next update.

Hi, I've checked my top14 average quality and it results 118,6% instead of 119,3% , actually shown for my team.

Apart from gaps,I think quality management is so confusing as many of us are just pointing out.

For each team we should see :

1) quality of actually entered formation,we consider in evaluation of match hardness
2) Top11 quality
3) Top14 quality

The quality for the whole team (over than 14 players) is not usefull at all....

Really nothing has changed , get over it.

Really nothing has changed , get over it.

Nothing has changed except the fact that we can no longer tell how strong our opponent is. Imagine facing a squad filled with 7 star players in the starting 11 but has one star players on the bench. The total quality will trick you

exactly the oposite is true now. it displays quality of his BEST 14
regardless are they in starting 11, are they substitutions or reserves. or even (somebody here noticed) out of the match due to cards or injuries

That's the point I'm trying to make. It's now difficult to ascertain the quality of your opponent's first eleven except you calculate it yourself
