Whats he still doing there?

I forgot something.
I notice my new youth player will leave after 7 days, on sep 22, 13:00. Thats a big blow because i expect to use round 50 income to promote him.
Base on my quote i remember waiting for a yth player to leave by 01:00 july22, but he stay till 13:00 july 22.
@tegimus can you confirm i'm not going to lose my 5/4.5 16y prospect in 7 days.

He leave Round 49 or He leaves round 50?

Dont worry @chika
I will release the new gk and my long serving defender "Fasial" after few rounds am going to miss him, as his the only player remaining since the first day i step into this club.
I'm holding out because his an important member of my first team in tough matches, i might need him 2night against indo, flusao and against you in our finals.

@chika its round 50 13:00 or later.
He can't leave before that or i sue my staffs.

How far away are national teams, Tegimus? I am so looking forward to it. Especially now with the world cup coming up IRL.

Not before the world cup anyways. We are pushing to open 4 more country/leagues and then there is the planned UI change. Some updates to the match engine is also being looked at, so international matches are not top priority right now.

Lol you won't believe which country wil dominate.
I come up with a blog article about "F4 Portuguese national team".
I was too lazy to publish it last season, due to being busy though.
Fresh in my mind, i explore the world of F4 to make out a portuguese team shortlist, botteams were ignord.
T Hickman 34y cb 75.64 now 35y, plays for kattuk utd - NED div 1. Retiring in no distance time.
The rest of the players that make up the 1st eleven won't survive most div 1 leagues.
In france theres no player with the portuguese nationality.
In portugal there are just 3 players in the shortlist, one has recently retired Left us with only two. Thats because of the random nationality.

I think they should fix player names and nationalities before they introduce national teams

If you are adding 4 more countries I definitely agree with some other users that having 3 levels in each country's pyramid is too many. 2 should be sufficient for the user base.

Before anything gets done by adding more teams and nations...the match and sim engine needs to be fixed. Having a striker score 8 goals every league game makes 0 sense. Having the best WB 's in the world and them not getting any goals or assists is just ludicrous. Playing a defensive style tactic just means you lose 9-0. Having Pele be a better player at 40 than Ronaldo at 21 because he has more EXP is just asinine. So many issues with the game engine itself, that should be all you are concentrated on right now.

better options = make flags customizable like names are :D

Its the sub group in div 3, that needs to be removed.
3.1-3.4 is enough.

Match engine is definitely a place to look at. I have seen tactics being useful but not quite to the extent that can cause regular upsets of bigger teams. Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. But there is lots of room for improvement for sure.

Experience I would disagree. The Ronaldo at Madrid was much better player than the Ronaldo at United. The issue with nerfing xp is that gaining rating is pretty easy in the game. You just need a top training centre and top coaches and you can get rating without doing anything else. But to gain xp you need to plan well, and there is a limit on how many players you can train on xp whereas there is no limit on training rating. So if xp is to be nerfed then gaining rating should also be made more difficult, may be limit number of players that can train efficiently with your team so that you cannot produce 30 superstars at the same time

Remove leagues. For the number of users, F4 should have like 3 or 4. Ideally 2 leagues with 3 divisions. Make it fun to fight for the promote and avoid demotion.

And of course, end this ridiculous number of nationalities. We should only have players from the leagues that exist in the game.

3 of my player is unable to recover quickly since pre season ahead of new season first custom match 10:30am.
2 has 98 fitness.
1 has 92 fitnes.
I change to a 93 physio, up from previous 95.
I get 0.57 every 30min.
But without matches since pre season i shouldnt have a 92 fitness only +2 when i check last its morethan 6hrs if i remember.

Don is your new staff set to the Physio role? I had this happen to myself when I forgot to change his role

Yeah mate i did. If i don't the 0.57 part will show less numbers. But
7:00am today they increase by +1.
Maybe something is fixed, after the training bug issue.
Its +2 the last 2hrs, thats how it should work.
Problem solved.

Really trying to understand the match engine but lately I fail in doing so. Lots of unrealistic formations that shouldn't make sense in the real world seem to work in the f4football world. Been playing for a few good seasons and I consider the ME the main problem here; How can I be absolutely dominated by a team with no central defenders, rating and experience lower than mine? https://www.f4football.com/matches/report/42877

I find this match to be a little outrageous to be honest in terms of dominance of the opponent team and the fact that he frickin' used 2 WB as their only defenders. Think ME would really need a rework, but that's just me. But these kind of matches happening too often will make users leave the game, that's my oppinion.
I really think we should restrict the number of players used in a position or on a side( where do we see teams playing with ML, AML and FL?); you could make some restrictions for some particular cases in wich you can't be allowed to save tactics where at least 3 defenders aren't on the field, a maximum of 3 players per side (DL/WBL;ML/AML; FL) etc; with a little effort these kind of absurd formations can be avoided. Cheers!
