I am seeing too many friends and association managers leaving this game, stop playing and deleting this game.
Why because the managers input now is so minimal as to not be important.
Game engine has taken over nearly all decisions.
Game play is now even more unrealistic.
So what to do?
1) Game engine needs to stop making troll games
(i.e. deciding result before the game is played and not taking any of the teams characteristics into consideration)
2) players out of position - need to have a clear disadvantage to those who play in correct position, not rewarded.
(I have had players out of position who got man of the match awards)
3) The team preparation, training levels and player quality needs to be addressed.
(They need to mean something, and have a bearing on match result)
4) Transfer system needs overhauling
(at the moment it's ridiculous)
5) Top scorers,ratings and assists need to be rewarded
(maybe a golden boot award(s) for players in stats, but reduced % loss at end of season would be better...maybe only extra 10% from each category
so possibility of gaining 10% if a player wins all 3 categories)
There's probably lot's more that you can think of that I've not mentioned, but these I think would make a good start.
What do you think?
