Now I would say for 99% - matches are going to be official.


If the IC matches will be official, you have decided that injuries will be reduced or, at least, that all official NT matches will be in arcade mode (without injuries)?

Will there be a new Dev Diary about this topic? There's a lot of info that needs to be confirmed and the new season starts next week.

I'm out now from home doing my regular job having only a mobile phone with me, so I can't do much. Coming back home on thursday and I will prepare something hopefully.

Calendar of events will be changed a bit.
Audience at official matches will be reduced (-20%).
No changes with injuries this (new) season.

here we go you joking right
2026-03-15 23:00:42
half of us will have only 3 home matches in IC. That's not more than a compensation to 20% less in 11 league home matches, no bonus money at all. And you need more players and will have more injuries. Will Raul show up and explain why he is doing that to sokker?
2026-03-15 23:10:13
Thanks for your response!

My advice for everyone reading this:
<1> Don't waste money on reinforcements (unless you want to fight for a title, of course), because we won't be receiving extra money to compensate the investment.
<2> Pick either National Cup or IC, and drop the other one. Otherwise, your team might become a hospital next season.

Again, Geston is just the communicator here. Don't kill the messenger.

I honestly like he still communicates. remember when we had exactly zero?


Clearly, Raul wants to run out all of the new teams that have limited funds, as I have suspected in previous posts. Sure, it'll drain funds of old teams who have been living high on the hog forever, but it'll cripple everyone else.
Then they can just close down sokker for good.

That's the wheel of fortune. Some teams end up with several promising young talents all at once, or for several seasons in a row, and then... nothing.

My advice when you’re fed up with bad luck: get rid of the players with the least potential to cut down on wasted spending—even if you have to keep 3 or 4 of them. And wait for the storm to pass.

But yes, Y.S really need a rework.

Are you kidding us right?We will play at highest level of the game and Audience at official matches will be reduced -20%?I can undestand for leafe games but not for international cupThis is not logical.Also i took the champioship and the cup to my country i will play at first division of internationjal cup and the sponsors pay me only 257 677 €. per week.As you realise that must be change and next season with that criteria sponsors must be pay me at least 120000 € more
2026-03-16 12:30:44
You must understand that giving more money to teams won't result in being able to buy more/better players because everyone will make more money

They limit the ticket income so there is no inflation like there was when they added +1 league game and suddenly young players started going for 20-30m euro

But no changes to injuries is absolutely ridiculous. It's not logical and it will ruin the game experience for everyone. No idea how can they decide to do that.

Additional game meaning more injuries, higher need for wider squad, but ZERO additional help or resources to counter that. Terrible, terrible decision.

My friend i had a conversation with other user who promote to the highest division of Greek league and he takes 260 193€ per week form the sponsors.I won Greek cup and the championship(i made the double) and sponsors pay me 257.677 €.How could happend this one is that logical?Sponsors must pay me at least 120000 € more

Look here if you dont beleive me,Also Level of satisfaction with fulfillment expectations and mood of funs must be to 100% dont you think?I am waiting the fair cahnges to my team at saturday
2026-03-16 13:00:05
It's not created individually and nobody will make "change for your team". It's based on league level (fanclub numbers) and fan happiness. If he gets same/more he has same/higher happiness than you. Cup performance/trophy does not impact the sponsors (except for "recent matches satisfaction").

There are not planning to change that in near future so you just have to accept the way it works since years.

And it has nothing to do with International Cup, if you want to discuss it, please open a topic about team sponsors on this forum: https://sokker.org/forum/ID_forum/63355

There's an important topic of no injuries change so it's better not to spam now with discussions that have nothing to do with IC.
2026-03-16 13:10:36
Why is it spam?If a team take part to the highest level of international cup sponsors must pay more money per week and also audience at official matches must be 20% more than other matches and for my opinion it depends from the level that one team play
