soccer.powerplaymanager.c... This season too match incredible results...

or this one???

soccer.powerplaymanager.c...

Didn't want to post that one - I was thinking you have some explanation for that one. For example - engine works different with big numbers :p

soccer.powerplaymanager.c...

He played his b-squad (half my values on both teamwork and indiv skill), and he played on low, shots were 12-5 to me and result 0-0 when i got the red card.

Where is the question?

we are talking about the game engine and pretty much posting matches which are strange so admins can make it better.. 5-0 btw, go finland football!

From what I can see, there's not that many managers posting here...
It seems to be the same faces I see time and time again.

Strange results happen, all of the time, in every country that football is played.
Why would the admins want to change it or "make it better"?

It seems those who have he strongest team want to win all of the time.. it simply does not work like that... ever.

Well, if I am one of the same face, than I have to say:

I have never post or complain to any of my matches.
I am the one who don't want to win match just because I have better players.
I would really like that good tactic could win the match.

And all my post goes in that direction.

This game needs better engine that implements more tactical aspects of the game.
Needs individual plays.
Better financial mechanism - that could balance sponsor deals (and I made some suggestions how to make financial difference between teams smaller).

Solution isn't to make engine that would randomly work against strong teams - because that's not fun - fun is to win against stronger team by making great tactic. It's good to feel moment of luck, but it's even better to feel moment of win by great thinking.

I want this game to be better, because there is a lot of things I like in this game. And I want this game to be fun for more than few people. For me is not fun to have 10 strong teams in whole game.

All of this is the reason why I posting that much. I see that as my contribution - not as criticism because things don't go well for my team.

If you aren't complaining about match results, then my post wasn't aimed at you.

Plus, I'm pretty sure the devs want this game to be better, and they try their best to give us a game that we can be happy with.

But there is an old saying...

"You can please some of the people, some of the time.
But you can't please all of the people, all of the time."

Some people will not be happy, but as the overall majority seem to be by not posting about "bad game results" then there is only so much that can be changed... and the changes will not come as a result of a small minority calling or change.

How the heck does my top line center, who picked up 9 points in game 1 of the season not get on the team of the day?

Actually, that applies to a number of my players... all of whom had killer HUGE scoreline days.

WTF?

101 vs a 28. No competition so very little weight when it comes to choosing the TotD.

oh and btw, I think you meant to post this in the equivalent hockey thread....

Old saying:
"Satisfaction is usually major brake for progression"
Or something like that

I know you are living in democratic world, but in this game majority is relative thing. Tomorrow there could be 100 people playing this game and all of them could be happy and satisfied.

And if someone don't post at international forum - doesn't have to mean he like game engine.

I didn't seen to many post against game engine changes.

All in all, PPM team have strategy how to make this game popular and how to attract more people to play. My opinion is that football need more balanced financial mechanism and more complex game engine.

Do we play football manager or we play build facility and buy player game ?

oh crap, yeah.
