I'd say it's more the cumulative result of the sponsorship changes AND the chemistry/experience change.

You have more players now that NEED to win games in the regular season because they've chosen a sponsorship deal with bonuses, so in the competitive leagues, they'll NEED to play harder in order to do that.

That and the chemistry/exp change just work hand-in-hand. So you now have an added benefit to try in the regular season, even if you don't have a bonus contract. That makes the players with bonus contracts still struggle to easily wins games against those who don't have them.

Great synergy there.

As far as the energy goes... I think someone somewhere recommended "recharging energy" at some point. I'd love to see that implemented.

Nothing huge, but it'd be cool if you could "gain back seasonal energy" by not playing a player for a period of time. An example would be, if a player doesn't play AT ALL (not even 1:00 minute as a sub) for 5 straight games, every day after that where he doesn't play, he'd regain 0.1 energy or something.

That would encourage people even more to monitor their energy and be active during the season, because they can't just rely on "the other guy's energy being bad too" at the end of the season.

Completely changing topics for a second though.


CAN WE PLEASE GET AN OPTION TO REMOVE A DRAFTEE FROM THE SCOUTING QUEUE?



It's absolutely ridiculous to me that I can set my drafting queue for an entire week (as a pro pack user), but if I change my mind (several days before the player is scheduled to be scouted), I can't change to scout another player instead.

I've now resorted to just scouting players a day at a time to avoid this frustration... which has left the pro pack feature of scouting players in advance completely worthless.

Just make it like the normal scouting page (where you can promote/demote draftees up/down the scouting list, or delete them from it altogether). Non pro-pack users would have a draft scouting list with the same features but only enough available slots for that day. It'd be like how non pro-pack users can only put 5 players in their normal scouting list at a time while pro-pack users can do 25.

No need to re-invent the wheel or try to be "cute" just because it's a new feature. Just do what works well.

try scrolling on a phone at 4:30Am and you make a wrong thumb move...

yeah, i dont think i will ever try to do a draft using a phone ...

I had to, it was terrible, my thumb missed twice.

I have a suggestion on the draft. As is I feel it is a total waste of time. Why not fill it with A and A+ players, hold it at the beginning of the season, and have 2 or 3 rounds? That way everybody gets a blue chipper or 2 every year. Get rid of the B, C, and D picks. Nobody is going to keep them anyways.

1 draft after each season. Let's make this game as much like the real deal as possible. Last place drafts first etc...

To that real deal point. How the hell is Spain and Brazil ranked above the USA and Canada?? Ridiculous...Does Brazil even have an ice rink??

If you're looking at ranking of countries, that's based on total number of registered managers. Spain has more managers since the game is developed in Europe. There may be other factors, but I'm sure that's a big one. Brazil has more managers likely because of football. I bet if you check most Brazilian manager profiles who have a hockey team, they'll have a football team. Conversely, if you check most who have a football team, they probably won't have a hockey team.

Allow non pro pack managers to set a top 10.

Or set first round

I got two ideas that I think will help improve the draft.

1 - Allow everyone to pre-rank the players that they scout. It seems pointless to scout player #72 in the draft if you will not be able to move him freely to a spot where you can draft him.

2 - Add the element of trading pick for players. Lets say team TOP DOG has player age and budget issues and needs to release one of their veterans and start rebuilding with youth, but they have a high pick and probably won't get a quality player. Also, lets say team CELLAR DWELLER is straddling the line between staying in the league and being demoted, they will need help from a veteran. They have a very low pick but that young player will not help them at the moment. They need results now. So, why not allow CELLAR DWELLER to trade their 1st pick to TOP DOG for a veteran player? Allow the trades the week before the draft when scouting is done.

Let me know what you guys think.

They will not implement trades. Trades allow for cheating.

I suggest, that the PP magazine publishes an article. The is bassicly on 1-2 people doing all the work. All the other guys should be kicked out if theyre not writing anything.

Umm... I just noticed that we don't have player stats for National Cup?? I feel that PPM might not include it because some teams have a Bye on the first game. If that is the reason just don't include stats for the first round.

It would be AWESOME if there were player stats for the National Cups please.
