What do you look for when you're prepping your team for the new season? Is it stars or stats for you? If two players of similar star level, position, and price are up for auction, what makes you go for one over the other? Just wondering.

Test them, look their internal programming. Try to play a friendly vs a 1* team to oversize the internal skills, so you can check out how both players are programmed.Quote:

How do you simulate a match with players you don't own? Let alone, a 1* team? Are there features I'm missing out on? lol.Quote:

lol
the myth of "good" players :rolleyes:
For 80 seasons in this game I didn't have even one bad "internally programmed" player (or better than usually), so don't care about this. Special ability is useless and you can ignore it too (all of my players have S.A., because it looks nice, but definitely don't works). Players "stats" that you see in transfer market is fake (the game engine create it). It is cool feeling to buy young, fast training players, but in my opinion this is wasting of tokens, because if you have strong team, will meet stronger opponents.
So, as almost everything in this game, transfers have not matter.
To "oversize" the internal skills. vs 1* team a good scorer will score 3,4,5 goals.Quote:

Too is interesting test the team to find the right player for corners and FKs, usually there's one player performing better there and it changes time to time after some weeks, but this is a stable choice that the game makes as the game is created to make you manage.
Testing players, you can see if they r aggressive, if they do not appear, and if they do not appear -what I call neutral players- check out if they help staying there the players they have arround or they have a negative impact.
A team with many players that have a negative impact can have all the AvQ you want but they tend to lose, have unexpected scores or so, and there's a differance when you have a team with players that give a good impact staying there cuz you'll notice that your team will play more fluid.
Sometimes this happens just doing one sub' of a single player and this is info that the game gives to you.
I wouldn't call it "myth" xDQuote:

This has been like this since the V1... what has recently changed is the beatability margin, that was higher in the extra events... and too we have a reduction of "scenario variables" there... here why many scenarios were repeated........... well u know well my thesis. ololo
I'd say age, single position and low quality (3* or 4*) are the obvious ones to look for.
what contribution ?Quote:

For example, half of the team are cosmetic.
The GK and the defenders.
They just contribute for some defense degree of the team and depending the result, they get a fixed rate (usually with some rotation).
A Gk can save your match, same with a good DC, a DR that scores.. Ive the GK as FK and corner man right now, scoring twice per match xDQuote:

Is not exactly "cosmetic", the word should be "disabled" for many actions, maybe, but, each player sums a number, to the whole team, even if this number is -5.
Really, all players work exactly in same way, thats why theres no the perfect formation.. any player can matter, and same time any player can mean 0.
The game works with rotations, of contribution roles, ratings, scenarios...
the only thing I 've seen so far, is that some player really have the "touch" in free kicks :p
In other words game is roulette, because "bad internally programmed"Quote:

And this will happen no matter opponent manager even not attend and don't care for his team (moral, conditions and sh*t).
Two mounts ago I could win if game goes wrong after some changes in orders, players and/or formation, but now it is meanless. Very, very, VERY disappointed :(
For protocol - I won treble in these two mounts and I am not here to complain about lost titles. I am here to show my unlimited disappoint.
Here the why of my complains, because the scenario is chosen looking both avq's (now in a wide way.. thats why right now seems even more random...) , and initially this determines the margin and options... then inside the margin, the game do the usual simplification of the match scenario, selecting few players as protagonists, and these few can have, the worst day of their lifes, or the worst... and it doesn't matter if the chosen ones have 2* or 9*.... we can see the "engine working" in teams that have 50%9*s and 50% 1*s, the "alternating conditioner" decides.Quote:

Too matters understand the whole limits in all the sense, myself I experienced a situation in what I bought 5 different STs or similar, and all of them played horrible, because I had the key players in the reserve... so when there's no space for more key players we can spend all tokens we want, but can occur that the new ones are eclipsed due the limitations of "roles of protagonism and contribution" that the game regulates.
I understand that every manager have a different perception of the game, but, this is how works in my own world xD
So, the conclusion is, that one can affect the roulette knowing how the roulette works, and playing in the same way as the roulette works, despite that this means that, the roulette never uses the real football tactic&logic.
Genuinely curious. You don't think stats matter, young players don't make a difference, strong teams invite stronger teams, and special ability is useless.Quote:

@pele LOL.
@ khris. All this in your guide would help. Today let me admit some of the vocabulary you use goes over my head. I think I need to improve my English. I literally have to read 2-4 times before I can say that alright I understand a little bit of what she is trying to say. lol
@po_zdrach why don't you play 3 seasons with players that don't have any SA? It will base your theory with some solid proofs. Start a new thread where you regularly post your results. Then we will agree to you if it turns out to be true.
Or wait for 1/2 seasons. I have taken over my sis's account for just getting jerseys and emblems ( from tokens I will get each season). I will conduct this test if some of us want.
@pele you just started few months ago playing this game,when you'll reach his level,you'll understand what he's saying(if the game will not improve and stay broken like now)
May be a year ago there have some meaning to buy young, fast training players, train them properly and after 3-4 seasons they were getting a good players, but training system was brutal broken and now you can buy every player from list with same success.Quote:

Honesty I don't see the reason to train my players, but habit is second nature. Suppose this is the reason continue playing the game.
Yeah I train out of habit too, but the training I do is the same as I never focused on just training the white skills before.Quote:
