Height and potential added could cripple the market. Everyoen would want only specific types of players and other player would be untransferable much more. Now you have to search for such a player or lessen your requirements.


this makes no sense. if i'm looking for a good potential or perfect height trainee, i'll look for it anyway. if he's not on the market, maybe i'll lessen my requirements, but forcing me to check pages and pages of rookies won't make me buy worse players.

i personally find especially absurd that there is no search for potential.

It takes you longer time this way so it keeps daytraing and dayily skilltrading within an acceptable limits.

The point was if there would be excessive search filter on TL, some players would be untradeable completely. No everyone knows perfectly what he wants and buys from what is affordable at the time. Your way market would be a silent, forgotten place where some managers would just checking as much as every three days if a player who meets all of their condition showed up or not. (exageration included) it could lower prices of players not really fitting those criterias ad there would be a much bigger difference between semi-useful players and the real good ones. Making harm to some managaers and benefiting others.

I greatly appreciate limitations on daytrading, but I believe that there are other options to limit daytrading and heavy skilltrading, like the ones already used (exponential taxes).
By making the transfer list not easy to use, the game became very uncomfortable for people who just want to spend few minutes a day playing, and who don't want to check 250 players to find the only 2 with decent potential or height :)

Actually you have to search TL once in 3 days to check for those players. Potential height and nationality should never be search options for TL.

If you would of read the thread you would understand. But I will give you some pointers what to look for. Daytrading, market value change, TL activity.

I just looked for 18yo players it gives you 64 pages (all positions included). You can not browse through that every 3 days? + you can search a certain position and give values of certain skills that you do not plan on training for that position. To me it seems you can not use the TL:) If you get frustrated then daytraders also get frustrated = TL is doing it's job!

are you kidding me? search trough 64 pages of players? every 3 days? NO WAY!
and to do what? the same work the website could have done automatically just by adding a simple clause to the search? i call it a big waste of time

at that point let's just have a big list without any filter...

Daytrading

as i told before, there are ways to limit daytrading that don't create difficulties for players who don't do daytrading. as the game should be enjoyable for the greatest possible number of managers, the TL shouldn't be frustrating for us. and yes browsing 64 pages every 3 days can be boring, because if i'm looking for a parameter (potential) i don't understand why i can't filter the search for it.

market value change, TL activity.

here i didn't understand what you mean, please explain :)

What potential are you looking for then? How many of those mvp+ potential players do you see there??? Browsing 64 pages looking for mvp+ potential takes about 5 sec a page (if you have a scroll mouse and just look at potential) now let's add that up, takes whooping 5-6 minutes (and this includes you adding them to your bookmarks). So what exactly are you whining about?

Read LA-docent24's posts.
About how everyone will be looking for those ideal height pot players etc. A lot of the transfer listed players will not be looked at because of 1 cm difference etc.

all-star at least. i'm NOT a skilltrader, so i only want players who can become at least as good as the ones i already have

So what exactly are you whining about?


whining? me? i'm only supporting a suggestion that has been made by a lot of users since the potential was introduced
