Consolidation:
For our Utopia users, this is nothing new and has been implemented from the start, making sure teams are grouped with as many other human controlled teams as possible. Since we already give human teams total priority in promotion (over bot teams), we decided to implement this new team placement starting this offseason!

Of course, there are some other aspects to this:
1. Top league teams won't be affected, of course.
2. Most human teams will change their current league and move laterally to new leagues of the same division - but now they will play mostly human opponents!
3. To offset possible losses of income, we will match the promotion awards for all promoted teams - no matter whether they are playoff winners or just promoted due to available empty slots!
4. Fresh and newly signed up teams will be placed in leagues populated only by bots or other such teams - to make sure they don't get overwhelmed right off the bat. We consider all teams 1 season or younger "fresh" :)
As an example, we take a country with semi-filled division III. Division II stay as it is. Suppose that a team in division II is promoted to division I due to available empty slots. Will it get the "full" promotion awards (for example, season ticket holders)?

I understand the new minutes required for training relevant to the player's age, but is this also referring to Game Shape or is that still separate?

Sorry, returning BB player...trying to get the new changes.

For example, an 18 year old can now do 45 minutes to receive training (compared with old 48 min)...but do they still require 55-70ish minutes to achieve max Game Shape?

Thanks

Hi, the Game Shape minutes are separate and not affected by age.


Great. Thank you for that.

48 minutes it is enough too



For an 18 year old...yeah.
