The Vent Thread

[TheGunners]

The servers went down exactly 2 minutes before my game -.-
Fortunately, it wasn't such an importand match and I won 5-1

[spornybol]

[Maor23]

**** this game.

[Hecke]

Something is really strange this season. Or better since end of last season. I've always been one of the best players in every competition, winning about 8 to 9 games out of 10. It seems like the game wants me to loose now! I now win 1 out of 10?! How is that possibloe? I always adapt formation and tactics... Its rediculous!

Due to the large influx of rant threads and it getting in the way of regular discussion, we are going to direct all non-constructive criticism in this thread.

Top Eleven can be very engaging and nobody likes to lose. Since even negative feedback is feedback, we don't want to take away people's ability to voice their thoughts. However, as people have recently taken this a bit too far, and regular discussion is suffering, we'll attempt something new and see how it goes.

Feel free to use this thread as a means to vent about something that happened in Top Eleven, but do not insult other players or groups.

If new threads still pop-up, they will be locked. Feel free to direct people here instead.

For those those who wish to offer ideas, suggestion, or constructive feedback, the rest of the forum offers enough opportunity to do so.

I'll start first:

All tokens I earn go to waste because I lose 9/10 auctions on my server. It's impossible for me to get new players.

Leave it to Nordeus to segregate it's users. Gee, we don't like people complaining, so let's shove them into their own thread so we don't have to be bothered reading their posts among the more important posts. Typical BS move, like the hundreds of other BS moves you make to better yourselves. Here's what you should do, Nordeus. Make a resign option so we don't have to wait three months for a squad to disappear. Oh wait, I know, you do it like this in the hopes we change our minds and come back so you can steal our money. Silly me, I'm sorry for forgetting that!

Yeh this thread was started more because us general users were sick of seeing the same threads from people crying about injuries, losing to weaker teams lol. Also the reason they leave it 70 days is prob so people dont just keep ditching teams and starting new ones!

[hullabaloo]

my 2nd game of the day. I have 14 shots, but only TWO hit the goal.
My opponent, whose average is 10p below mine, shoots 17 times and hits my goal 14 times.

what the f*ck is wrong with this game? Whichever knob thought it was a good idea to make your users this angry at a game should be fired asap.


I should also say that i used the exact same tactics as I did when we played the last time. I won that game 4-0. This time I lost 2-1.

Not sure if this vent belongs here, because I'm breaking tradition in not complaining about Nordeus and the game engine but...

Bloody managers who appear from nowhere and bid on quality players that I want!

Entered an auction tonight for a 29Q MC/ML with Dribbling SA. He's not essential to my team, but I could do with a few players who are flexible and it's always nice to get one with SA. So rounds 1-3 see me ease three other Level 2 managers out of the bidding and after round 4 it's just one other rookie left. As I bid early in round 4 I decide to check out their stats (I usually do this early to get an idea of who I'm up against, but sometimes it's hard to do when many players are bidding)

Their key team stats (from memory, approx): Avg Age 33, Avg Qty 14, Joined Nov 8th 2012, Budget 13m, Stadium 13,000, Team Value 753k

WTF?!

Clearly doesn't play the game at all, as only gained one promotion in 6 months. Currently rock bottom of the league with a 100% losing record. Squad is so bare that they have no GK, and so having to play a 0-1-1-1-4-1-3 formation. BUT - has big stadium and budget for this level and so I assumed they would have a few tokens to bid with

They double bid in round 7 and that was enough for me to get out - I tend to stop around then anyway and the price was now above the player's value, and at 25 yrs I don't think I could get the value up much

Why is this manager p****** me off by going in for bids that it's pointless for them to enter because frankly their season is over already!

I feel about 10% better now, so that's good I guess :-)

Dood, I feel your pain. I see this happen too many times. and i think sometimes its an abandoned account on autobot, or someone from Nordeus just facking around with it. Think about it. A stadium that big but a ****ty team? They have many tokens to waste at that level to have a stadium that size but cant buy the players to make their team better? It is not logical.

I am tired of people saying conspiracy theories. Its fairly obvious that things are not as they seem in this game and Nordeus is being shady at times with their programming of this game to cause its members to spend. Greedy, greedy, greedy.

An auction yesterday: some retard/bot enters at exactly last second and bids every round at the last possible second, EVERY TIME at the EXACT SAME MOMENT. He is a noob with a ****ty team, yet he can hit the bid at 1 second like clockwork!!! I cant even do that! Not only that, but I always bid in the first second because I want the player and show it. So for this person/bot to wait until the last second every round is just strange.

Look, this is an OK game. Not worth spending the cash people spend on this already. It can be a much better game, but the devs are slow on improvement and they seem to not really care like they should. Transparency is lacking. BIG-TIME. For this reason I dont trust them. I have heard and seen too many shady things to believe what they say. It is for this reason that I recently promised not to spend any more on tokens. I am a builder and love to build in games. Age of Empires, Rebellion, Empire at War, etc. What i dont like is to be FORCED to buy tokens to build to be able to compete. They are creating a game where segregation is the norm. Token buyers used to own non-token buyers, but they change the game engine to create results to even out the odds, much to the chagrin of the token buyers. They cant have it both ways but they try and they fail.

I think a new approach is necessary for this game to grow in the right direction.

I don't believe in a conspiracy, or that they have bots and abandoned teams bidding. Yes the obvious argument is that this would be a way to eke more tokens out of people, but certainly in this case the more likely answer is that someone has just come back to the game and started buying players. I just wish they'd started with a GK!

The last second bidding is pretty common, although when people do it after you have bid early in the round it's just them being stupid and not understanding how the auction works

And, for example, what you say at the end is a contradiction - you said you are forced to buy tokens, but also that the engine has levelled things out so token buyers don't just dominate non-TB

Personally I like the game so far - I have much bigger issues with FMH
