Emnet: Suggestions

while avoiding politics, I will simply say that your belief in what caused the economic crisis is mistaken. If you want to buy that kool-aid, fine but that is another story.

then play your way, i play my way, and the people training the main atty monsters will eventually leave or constantly lose. if they don't, why should i care. My goal is to have fun building my team in the way i feel is right.

by the way this comment was directed at stan not euolo, euolo has a better understanding of the situation.

I like how you equate my disagreeing with you with somehow believing that acting unethical is ok. Way to judge without knowing the facts.

Here are the facts:

1. No one knows the ideal training ratio though we all have theories. The guide clearly states that a 180-25-25 player is not as good as 120-30-50. If a player cant get that a 100-15-15 goalie is not going to play as well as an 80-40-40 that is their own fault. Have you considered that there isn't an ideal ratio? The game has thousands of factors that go into every single play. On anyone play different ratings ratios may work out to a users benefit or to no benefit at all

2. The market determines all. People are only selling what people will buy. You are arbitrarily placing what you think is best in a player and dismissing those that disagree.

3. All this competitive balance stuff is in your words "cow pies." I started in June in the lowest level. Everyone who started in April in I.1 has teams that are leaps and bounds ahead of mine. It will take me several seasons, if not longer, for my team to even be competitive at that level. How is that "fair"? It isn't. But life isn't fair. Which goes back to my original point, the only way you will enjoy this game is if you stop worrying about other people and just strive to make your team better. Also, what about the guy who never buys a player but only trains his players in primary. He too will suffer, should the game send him an e-mail to tell him he is doing it wrong?

4. A star rating on individual players would destroy the game. It would take every last bit of mystery out of it. That is a far cry from having ratings on teams or lines, because only you know the ratings that went into your team getting those numbers. In addition those ratings count chemistry which would have no impact on the market. Plus how would you rate tertiary. maybe I like defense in my forwards so that makes them more valuable to me. It all goes back to 2. additionally how would you factor in qualities. To me a 35-30-25 player with 60+ qualities is more valuable than 45-35-30 with low qualities. But when my star went down right before the playoffs I went out and overpaid for the 2nd example because i needed talent now. Am i just another newbie that was taken advantage of?

Lastly I find your comments about my nationality and your questioning of my ethics offensive. I'm not out selling 100 primary no secondary players. And even if I was who are you to judge? *Are you out sending e-mails to everyone in your league telling them how to best beat you, I find it unethical that you wouldn't do that. You are trying to get ahead by keeping knowledge from them* *=tongue in cheek. The game is a business yes, but turning it into a math equation while babying all the users will destroy it faster than people buying bad players on the market.

People buying bad players from the market for a shitload of money, then losing over and over again WILL cause major problems. People leave games because of that.

then maybe they should read or ask questions before making such poor decisions. im certainly not spending millions without researching. its their own fault.

Well said on all accounts! /cheer

Read what? The guide on this matter is pretty damn useless. In fact, on the topic of player attributes, the guide has provided a LOT of discussions on this very forum because nobody knows what it actually means.

How can a newbie read it and be expected to make sense of it?

As for asking questions... many people actually do, and they get great answers. My point is, they should not have to.

it's common sense and mentioned in the guide that players with bad qualities will not train very well and not be good players in the long term. people who pay millions for players with one good attribute ignore the qualities and common sense and buy these players anyway. i have no sympathy for them. they clearly don't take the time to see what works best on their own team and hastily spend everything they have.

if they shouldn't have to ask questions then your problem is clearly with the guide and its lack of information. i for one am happy with the guide and its lack of information as i believe these items should be worked out on their own. people should make mistakes, they should learn from them and more importantly they should do their best to gather as much information about the action they're about to take as possible.

i disagree with you that the guide on the matter is useless. it's not about finding the extra ratio that works best, its about avoiding ratios that work terribly and the guide does a pretty good job explaining that.

the people that buy these players clearly do not read the guide or take the time to think about it, and for that i have no sympathy or a desire to save them from their own mistakes. in addition the game does not need to be saved by us from them, and the thought that we need to police it from itself is a stance that is based upon an insanely small sample size of purchases and decisions the 'elite' perceive as poor.

'exact' ratio.

I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree on most of this.

I suggest to create option search in hokcey account like in ppm account. In that option you can search hockey players and you can remove from ppm acount search to hockey account search option search teams because when football is finnished, it will be problems to know which team is football and which hockey. I think my suggestion isn't very hard to create and it's very good. What do you think?

I think your idea is a good one and I like it. I would be nice if you are able to search hockey teams from your hockey account.

Yes, and sometime you wish to find player with some name but you forgot for who team he play and you can find him on that way.

not hard to do, but takes serverload I guess, but when everything is settled (different servers for each sport, and intro page) things will get better and maybe they'll implement this afterwards
