8 players retire for my team, but I don't worry. This game became biggest joke ever and for me it is very funny to see what mess is next.
9 of mine.
I guess the game wants to reset the quality of the team as mine was way up to 127%, far higher than my league team has ever been in 5 years of playing.
I've got 34/48 team badges so as long as I fill the rest and get the tokens I'll be happy.
Internationals could have been a good wee sideline to the main game but it's increasingly only worth playing for the tokens and extra greens now.
@Saucy can you tell us what will happened if the team will stay with only few players ?
Some of the remaining are playing in same positions so we will be out of a DR or a DMC ?
Is this the last season of nations ?
Yep, Nordeus wanted to reset team qualities but has no idea how to do it. They've made the national team setup for this game worse and worse to try and "correct" themselves, with very little explanation to managers. We are just numbers to them; Sausy and the rest of the Nordeus crew don't care about you or me.
They care because it's one of their projects.
If they cannot figure out some next day plan yet, that's another story.
Why are you so negative in all your coments ?
And if you see them all negative, why continue playing ?
:p
Correct I see that also as positive to equal quality
I'm continuing playing right now because my association only has 4 managers. Once the group gets back up to 6, I will seriously consider stopping again. I'm negative in my comments because this game could be so great, and the game management consistently refuses to take the steps to make it so. Sure they care; they care about the money. Don't kid yourself into thinking they care about the game experience, otherwise they would be focusing on making the game better instead of all the dumb events.
There are ways to do it without nuking managers' teams completely. Have only 30+ players retire, and limit it at 5 players retiring at once. Institute a star reduction or a quality max. Offer managers new players that are no more than 20% lower than your team quality, or no more than 10% lower than your worst player. All of these are simple, common-sense decisions that are apparently either too difficult for Nordeus staff to consider, or do not earn Nordeus enough money. Either one is terrible.
Just realised, of the 7 retiring, 3 are AML's......i have no other AML's so will be forced to change formation or play a defender in that position......
Yes I'm the same 4 players ( the best ones ! ) Under 27 retiring 4 over 33 still playing and the difference between what I'm being offered as free players is a joke
well i think so we all should be looking for replacements.......
my top scorers and assist leaders are young and they too are retiring.
Two of the players I got offered today were 25, one was 23. I have 26 yo's retiring out of the 9 I'm losing.
Really?
Where are the 18, 19 20 yo replacements?
But only took 4 attempts to win the 3 games today, slightly better than the 10 last week!!!!
Thanks for this thread; I've forwarded this to the team and will follow up in this thread as I learn more.
I have no answers for the questions raised here for the moment I'm afraid, but we're following all feedback closely.
8 of my national team are retiring, the youngest is 26. 2 x 32 year olds and 2 x 31 year olds aren't retiring, but 2 x 27 year olds are. WTFLMAOBBQ
1st : I got a notice that three 7 stars players will retire from my national team at the end of this season ( after few days )
two of them at age of 31 and one at age of 27 !!! come on since when players retire at this young age !!
I am the manager and I want these players to stay in my team and they'd love to serving their country and play or stay on the benches if they are tired !!
why are you kicking them out of my team ?
2nd: The teams I am facing since 2-3 weeks are 8-10 stars and I am barely able to get one card only every week...
why did you make things so hard ? is it because my National team 7 stars ?? or any other explanation ??
Sorry @USARABAT but we have already two open & active threads about those issues and a post from Sausy.
We 're gonna loose the ball here :p
Threads are merged.
This retirement its like make the team more equally to other players, all free players are 80% maybe next season the national teams play for our association!!!
That is awesome by the way then all the tanking is directly finished!!!
What you think mates??
You're insane. What use is tanking with national teams??? And team quality in national teams is decided by the best 14 players, so adding 80% players does nothing but make the teams worse. It changes nothing about how quality is calculated. And national teams playing for associations might be the silliest idea I've ever heard. Why would you even want that? :confused:
Let new managers bring their teams up to the level of other managers, don't bring established managers down.
I mean more National teams become same quality and more fit to play in the Association matches instead of our normal team.
So our normal teams can concentrate on the League, CL and Cup matches.
At the same time no use to tank with our normal teams anymore, only during vacations and so
Again, I disagree. There is no easy way to maintain the National Team squad. It is barely sufficient for its international games; putting them in associations is pointless. There are far better ways to fix tanking in Associations, namely using Association game team qualities rather than qualities in other competitions, implementing an ELO system, balancing out the prize system, etc. It does not need to get muddled up.
mine, 8 players retire next season....only one Wednesday left this season...i have to complete the stickers next week or become never.
I removed all my retiremtent already except the GK.. otherwise no GK and won all my national matches in 4 tries
Wait, is this true?
I've five retiring players, and three of them are in the first eleven, both at 120%+, aged 28. Removing them at this stage will cause a big drop in my team average. So a bit worried to do something so drastic.
I have eleven players retiring, six of them below 30... Who has more? :D
Since players and formation haven't matter, we can win (or lost) in every case. Do not worry about retire players and enjoy of the mess :)
I don't understand this retirement of young players and not only that my best players are retiring. When I do win and get that free player, it is a 25 yr old 5 star player and I am losing an 8 star 26 yr old player. The teams I play against is 7 - 9 stars. How do I win if the quality of my team is dropping? Nordeus wants us to spend 600 tokens to buy players. The national is a cool concept but I can ignore it. Don't need to focus on the national team.

I don't have any "inside" info but I would guess that this is the last season of nations.
They will gone with the "old" TE 2018 next season.
But they say this is the new feature and more nations will be added into the international sticker album (which I think is good)
But they f** up when they make 1 day international window which makes it more undesirable to play and tons of manager just forgotten there's a feature called "national team" on their top11
Players below 30yo shouldn't get to retire that easily. That's so wrong, I release my best 30++ player the past months so I could choose younger player and suddenly my 1 and only 26yo GK wants to retire. wtf!?

Nordeus are right.
Players don't retire.
They just announced that they are not playing for national team any more.
It could be that Mbappe would have said that he would no more play for France, while he would still continue playing for PSG... :p
It would be as if Mbappe, Griezmann, Kante, Varane, and Lloris all decided to retire from national duty at the same time. :p
This totally sucks now. Been training like a demon every day and now the other teams are too strong to beat. I was going well when we had more time with a first xi that could beat hard and medium and a second xi that could win the easy game. Now I can’t win any and on top of that half my squad is now retiring all at once even some who are 28-29. No warning about this so I didn’t pick the crap free players . Am I going for the 549 gold package to win a couple of 30 odds I don’t think so.
I have a 20-3-1 league record this season so I know I haven’t suddenly become a bad player.
OWN GOAL NORDEUS. Fix this or drop the feature
One 25 year old and 2 26 year olds retire. 6 in total going and the oldest is 30. They're that good because I took the trouble to train them. They'll not be the only players going at the end of the season. Your call Top Eleven :(

I m sure that nordeus is watching the forum and this thread but you see, no response from Sausy.
The older managers had many unpleasant surprises from TE.
Many features just stopped the next day without any warning.
So better claim all the pages you gathered and don't buy new players till next week.
Unfortunately this event is broken and/or not supported any more. I just need 1 more team to complete all 48 teams but for the last 2 weeks I keep getting the same teams I have already played and completed. So the event seems broken
