Subject: NEWS Ideas & Suggestions Poll
- Make Sokker available for Android and iOS
Since most are in tablet or smartphone android.
- Change the faces of the players, to make them more realistic and visible in the 3D viewer
And to improve the 3D viewer, and can be viewed by almost all computers, new and a few years old, and for every laptop.
- More payment options
And easier, more comfortable for users with other methods, not just cards
- An enhanced interactive tutorial in the game
Since there are many new players do not know what to do to start Sokker.
- Enter styles of play equipment / individual (eg passing style short / long, etc.)
Do not know if it's a tall order, but they can also make changes to the live games.
- Market Assistant / System Autobid
This would be very beneficial because it would not have to be connected at the time of the end of the auction, because each country has a different schedule.
- Convert all lower divisions in a great league, similar to youth leagues
This does not, the current system seems to me great.
Thanks

About transfers:
- it would be nice to change or improve the transfer window by giveing an opportunity for managers to make direct transfer or loan proposals to other team's managers, for players even if they arren't on transfer market, and if the managers would agree on the price or terms to make a deal, they could even pay the player's price+loan players like i real life(another interesting aspect, to make the game resemble to real situations)
- Loaning players
- Free agent players(fired players should not disappear from game. If no team bids on him by the time of one month, after that the game(sokker) could make him dissapear from game.
Negative budget:
- Sometimes teams ar in the red, negative budget. It would be nice to extend the time for fixing the budget(more than 3 days).

It's possible. They might win the League Cup if they focus on that. :P
I think the biggest problem with Sokker today is that we can't train players as long as we are participating in the cup. This is completely unrealistic, and makes it very difficult for the best teams to train young players!
Suggestion: Implement training matches independantly from cup matches.

that's actually a good thing imho (even if I am in the dilemma myself as well). It forces you to fix priorities (training the youngsters or line up the best players). Training independent from cup games would give the top teams an(other) advantage.
It doesn't take a marketing whiz to see that this is all about some flash and dash to attract new users. Very few of these options are really about improving the game. From my perspective, the lack of real game improvements has caused the existing user revenue stream to drop. The new goal is to get more new users who will spend more money on the game. Let's break this down a bit...
The Facebook poll isn't because they want the input of existing mangers, it's to get input from outside people to get them to play the game. Making Sokker Android and iOS? All about getting revenue from the app world of electronics users. Changing graphics? All about making the game more appealing--not better--to new users. More payment options? Good for the devs. Improved tutorial? Makes new users stay just a little longer than normal, generating revenue not improved gaming. Reducing leagues? Less organizational headaches, again good for the devs not the game.
Playing styles? That is the only possibility for a real game improvement, depending on how it is implemented.
In all of these ideas, I see nothing that will actually improve the game significantly. I don't think very highly of companies/games/etc. that think so little of their existing clients. I hope I'm wrong. But, I will wait and see what happens.

coach is right. there was very little put forth in the suggestions that would make the game better. the USA managers are all leaving because the last change to the match engine has created a really sloppy for of the game. fixing the engine would go a long way to retaining managers.
visuals are easy fixes. and they give the appearance of significant changes without changing the game itself. been playing this game awhile, but i'm not getting Plus again til i see some change in the GAME, not the skins.

+1
Where in the suggestion options is one about making the tactical engine (the only unique part of this game) better?

Here's an example of message from developers in another online football manager I play:
We constantly review the level of team money in the game and if we detect any issue with inflation or we feel that success is not adequately rewarded then we will review and make changes.
I don't believe that anybody takes care of the total amount of money in Sokker and adjusts the factors producing the money. Does anyone controls inflation? What was the market value of last season's Champions League last 16 clubs? And how much higher is it from season 1 of CL? It could be 200% higher for all I know. Who knows? Does anyone care? I don't think so.
This only means that the starting position within the game is getting further and further away from the interesting level of the game. This needs to be adjusted because it is one of the reasons for low retention of new users.
