Changing the training is a bad idea when something goes wrong with it.


Again, maybe not everyone knew about the problem and maybe not everyone is so brilliant to see ahead. Anyway, this is not a good reason to say it's our fault. Don't turn it inside out.

to "PISolo"
i dont see any advantage in this too, only that if my player in trained position didnt got 48+ minutes gametime and popup, i have chance to see popup next week if he gets full training. hovever knowing popups can help those managers who trade players.


this is a little advantage vs the big problems generate by the insane idea of the new train.....

think to all the players that will not have popup and have a different train......

Gutted does not even begin to descibe the feeling I have when I awoke to see my $70k Romanian NT Centre jump up 2 levels of GS.

Sadness filled my world to learn my Columbian NT Point Guard popped in OD and DR.

I was devastated to learn that I might be inching closer to having an Italian NT player when my other Point Guard popped again too.

To further add to my woes it is unacceptable that after finally getting my Spanish starlet a shiny NT flag by his name that he is discriminated against with 'dodgy' training minutes and GS.

I wont even start to talk about my Dutch, French and Chilean NT guys who may or may not ever perform to the best of their abilities again after this tragic debacle.

Spare a thought also for my 20yo USA NT hopeful... if this mishap prevents him from making the U21 team next season you will leave me no choice but to sue you.

This is a travesty of justice and I demand 'double' training this week. Inconvenience doesn't begin to describe the situation my roster has been put through?

Once this has been rectified, please can you look again into the early season arena formula, the Outside Defence team ratings and then provide a fair enthusiasm system for teams in Far East/Australasia when they get drawn away to a North American opponent in the BB3!

PS. I have supporter currently so please just send me the cash!!

im changed my training zone after training update.. And my power forvets playing sg this week, so they cant get training after your mistakes..
Why dont you tell us ''We are rerun the training update. And dont change your training sort and zone.''

May be you can rerun training update at tomorrow morning. and we can change training type whats we wants training zone for our players..

Thanks!

I hope the serious issues can be filtered from the sarcasm....

I would stress however, that it is a back handed complaint and therefore I hope it is eligible for a potential supporter prize/refund.

It is prompt, concise and highlights what about 0.1% of other BB managers are feeling like.

If I had a team of 3-5k wage players I would be more concerned with complaining about resale % on transfers as I would be concentrating on day trading and not overly concerned with training... ;-)

Best solution? In my view...

Run no training this week. Add one week of scrimmages to the end of the season. Add one week to all supporter packages.

Say you are very sorry (again). Training is just about the biggest thing in this game after the ME. You can't mess around with it and settle for a partial solution, it either has to work as planned for all, or not happen.

Kind regards,
Elmacca.

There are so many things wrong with this text and how you handled this.. if you cant be bothered to really fix things at least edit in some respect for the users who clearly and rightfully are frustrated.

Lessons to be learned if something goes wrong:

- Make an/the announcement reflect what you are about to do...
..and what the users shouldnt.

- Consider the timezones.. the ones awake and logged in are the ones who will be affected.

- When you make "rushed" changes you are (almost) all the time in some way penalizing the ones who really like this game and PLAN way ahead. This is true of economics, GE changes and/or as in this case a not so elegant bug-fix.

May I add, if not obvious, that those people also are your customers. The ones who pay for this.

-P
