Subpage under development, new version coming soon!
Subject: Do Something for Sokker, for real!!!
Visuals are massively important to new users. I'm sticking by the idea that the game should be given a visual update and a new name, so the people who played this game when it was ugly and had no features think it's a new game and come back.
I really wish they would update the site.
Also get a few of the staff members to do 'PR' work, saying what we are doing and such, so users don't just say - 'where are the devs?'

devs usually don't post in forums. They "don't exist but exist".
I think they should comment here, we need their opinion about.
Also, we should make a list of what we want to see, any suggestions, changes, ideas, etc here, so we can have a certain order. What do you think?

This list will be updated anytime you post an idea, suggestion, etc.
I hope this list works :P
Ideas, suggestions, etc
1.- "Maybe devs can write in a topic, what they are developing in current season" (by ringhiostarr)
2.- "Release a monthly 'progress report'" (by Lostprophets)
3.- "More statistics and much useful homepage, office and other pages with more functionality and better cross-linking throughout whole website." (by majti_orion)
4.- "Right or left footed players" (by cyrilcoppini)

Could you take mine off that list. My idea was on the basis that the game continues to massively lose users and that's a last resort.
man i agree with you sokker is dieing ... a lot of users (me too) are getting bored ... and devs need to do smth faster to stop all users that are leaving ... and to attract new ones ...
this game is not so cool because of design, so people who play it, play it because of game, = the most improvements should be to game, into engine and so, not to design... who want better design can play FIFA :-DD
Nice theory but as you may have noticed, we're recently gone from 74k users to 64k. The game itself isn't the problem anymore, the problem is attracting new users when this site looks amateurish compared basically every other management game around.
You can improve the game as much as you like but it won't matter to new users if it looks rubbish and it won't matter to anyone who has left this game, because they're only going to remember what it used to be like. That was the whole point of my earlier post, that by getting a visual update and a new name, you lose all the negativity that currently exists because you've got something that looks like a new game and not something where you can say "Played that a few years ago, not interested". I actually had this problem on a forum I was trying to recruit on not long ago, I got a load of people telling me that they had tried the game but been put off by waiting too long for acceptance, the ugly (by comparison) interface and the "terrible admins".

you forgot, that we have still a lot of new users, problem is maybe that old player are quiting, and we all know that it is not because of design... somebody who play years is not so interesting in design...
this problem will not solve JUST new lama users, users for 3 day play...
we need to old people stop quiting this game.....so we need fix problems which old players hate :-)
just my opinion :-)

From my point of view, I simply expect the devs. to build a clear vision about the game and to share it with us. When I buy a product, I want to know what's good for and what will be (good for) in the future, not just how's it working now. More exactly, as sokker is a game about football, I want to now pretty precisely what is the vision on how to simulate the real football, I mean if the devs are very resolute to simulate the real football as much as it's possible or not, and what is their vision in order to do it.
So, this is my main expectancy: to have a clear vision, to share it with us and to let us know what are the following steps from time to time. I expect sokker to be the best football simulator, and I want to know if they are able to do it. If this can happen, I'm not so worried about how long it will take.
For instance one aspect: I buy a (football) product, where is very allowed to play non-combats (for training), which is very contrary to the real football......I want to know if this will stay up in the future simply because I don't want to invest my money and my time in this kind of projects, it's my right to know it. As I can see, nobody told anything about this aspect, and I know a lot of people repudiating this and being disappointed of the game.
Does sokker have a vision for the real football simulation ?....a simple question waiting for a simple answer....and what's the plan and the schedule. After that we can talk about the proposals and all the variants.

simple improves make this game funnier.
Ie: free kick orders (direct free kicks and indirect...), or stadiums design (ie: different colours of the benches, seats, shapes...) inclusive, options to play the match in the night (light effects) etc...
I'm sure some of this improves will atract more users

I think it's not enough, funny can be any game, sokker is a football simulator, I think it would be the best to focus on the main feature = football, and to make it the best football simulator, because this is the guarantee for the success of the game, to be the best in the branch.
For instance, I always read on our forum complaints against the random of the red cards, while other time nothing happen with a fault from behind, as well as against the random of the injuries and other big mistakes (wrong passing, usually) which defy, let's say, akind of the common sense of the normal real football. All the "victims" use to be very angry on the engine. I know it's not so simple to fix the issue, and actually happens weird things even in the real football or other time so called unfair situations, but if the devs. could make these things to be more real, more explainable, more related to the real football (cards just for obvious faults from behind, because of the temperament of the player, etc), everything just not to have the impression that you're under the decision of a blind/random engine.....as I say, a lot of users don't enjoy the game because of these things, they spam the forums with their grievances, and they are often banned, this is one way to quit the game. Make it real, make it more explainable for any our "damages" suffered during the match.....this is another reason to improve the game in the right way, toward the real football, this is the lasting solution, others are temporary.

i still think the default skin looks boring and un-attractive which is why some users dont stay. This green is the most dullest green they could of chosen. Add some colour to this site is what i want, or change the default skin.
