Perhaps cheating isn't the best term since something is only cheating if it's against the rules. I'm just afraid it will be possible to share players to the point of almost making 2 great clubs out of 2 good clubs by swapping the best players back and forth. Another concern would be a way to hand over players which circumvents the market. Much the same reason the game doesn't allow direct player to player transactions.

I dont know how the system will ultimately end up. These are just a couple of concerns about it. I dont understand what the game will gain by having the player loans implemented.

It would be cool if it's similar to the transfer market, but instead of buying a player outright you are paying a fee to the team that's loaning him out for temporary rights. Then top tier teams can get quality players they want to keep long term, but the can play elsewhere for experience? but the training could be an issue if you have no say over it

Agreed on your points. It could be used as a way to manipulate league standings and playoffs among many other things. Lets say a top flight team needs chemistry and experience for a prospect tender. Most of us know getting chem into 2 goalies at once is a nightmare. So you loan the stud to a division 3 club. Insta top 4 team in the division. Guy plays and gains chem and experience while the number 1 plays for the big club. I can see another round of multi account bannings on that on.

Though honestly I figured the loan option would have concerned national teams. Obviously not needless to say.

How the attys are trained AND the facility levels of the other person relative to the guy loaning the player. Charging a fee is an interesting idea also.

"I dont understand what the game will gain by having the player loans implemented."

It's something that no other online manager game has and it can make PPM more attractive than the others.


The loans will be held as auctions like player transfers so I can't see the multi account issue there.

Chemistry doesn't remain when a player is transferred from a club to another.

Oh! Now that is good news to see that loans will be done as an open auction. That sure does eliminate any concern beyond what is in the market already (which isn't much for me since I think they do well policing it).
What type of durations are we looking at for the lonas? Or is it indefinate?

Hi !

Can you please tell me why i've lost this game:
hockey.powerplaymanager.c... ?

I'm trying to find an answer...but I can't !

What is Mica?

I just love these questions. You are looking for answers and you are looking in the right place. The answer is simple as hell: you lost the game because the other team scored in the overtime. I don't think that anyone could give a more meaningful answer than that - except the obvious that you faced a goalie on fire, that the other team used higher importance and this sometimes works, and that your boys ought perhaps not mind some extra shooting training

lol ... my bad !
Game importance - low !

Actually he lost because the other team scored more than he did I agree with everything else though. His opponent had a much better finishing in match and that caused the result. Mind boys were dominating which in most cases provides a win but this time the opponent scored more.

Much better finishing ? It's almost same rating for shooting but a big difference in GK rating...

IMO, this should be a easy win... perhaps it was that 'random' who 'helped' him win the game !

Sure, but it is not the whole truth. No game can be won without the help and assist of Random, no matter how strong you are

You opponent scored with 14% of their shots and you scored only 6%. That's what I meant.

Your team didn't have a good day and in most cases you would have won but this time you didn't. If you can't imagine what happened in ice, then you can simply say the result was bad luck

In theory, shooting efficiency is given by S/G (where S is my rating for shooting and G is his rating for goalkeeper), right ?

So, shooting efficiency for my team should be around 14% (instead of 6% as it was in game), and he should have around 9.5% (instead of 14% as it was in game)...there are some big differences there...

P.S. I don't believe in bad days !
