Warrior General Games

I know something like this has probably already been suggested, but I'm going to throw this out there anyway.

I was looking forward to 29 having built a respectable team and then I find my team put in casual elite where there is absolutely no way we can compete. The players on the other teams in the league are easily 10 levels higher and 40 days older than most of the players on my team. That means they all have been playing one season more than my guys!

Can't the league structure be based on a combination of age AND level? Doesn't seem to make sense to have my younger guys beat up by the older guys. Makes for a lot of blowouts and dissapointed players which just will make recruiting harder for the next season.

So this is an example of what I'm talking about:

Does anyone in their right minds think my team should be in the same league as these guys?!?!?

There has to be a better way of slotting teams into leagues, 'cause right now S29 is a complete waste for me and my guys.

Yeah it sucks that you only have 16 guys at the max age.

but your team is too old for national minors anyway. At least you dont have to jump straight into the uncapped leagues.

Dont think that they may change this but +1

+1

Actually make sense.

The team in question jumped form Reg-minor Competitive to Semi-pro Elite. When skipping over a age range, it make sense to go down one tier to Competitive or regular and not up to Elite.

+1...But expect ZERO support from admin.

I had a casual team a few seasons ago that tore it up in a league that was mostly cpu...So admin put the team in a league the next season where we were out leveled and under aged. I appealled several times to admin, but was told we would be fine...They said they looked my team over and thought we'd be competitive.

We went 0-20. NONE of the games were even close. Most of the agents rage-quit because it got so bad. When I pointed this out to admin, I was told "fix your builds"

Trust me, as long as they have your money, they don't care. Admin hass spoken. Be a good little droogie and buck up. Fix your builds, you'll be fine.

And spend more money.

+1 i'm too new (only 3rd season) but i bet there aren't many new bloods who have stayed around like i have.

Just a thought but what if the tolerances for player levels/ages was tighter for teams? Right now you can have players 10 or more levels apart on the same team... which makes for a real sucky team... but it fits the "league" because of the tolerances. If it was tighter, then teams would be much easier to place in competitive situations rather than this^^^ happening.

youre the idiot that recruited the wrong age dots. You cant blame bort for you being in semi pro and recruiting national minors dots AND semi pro dots. thats just fucking ridiculous.


this is why there should be needed approval for owners so we dont have random people complaining because they dont understand how anything works. no wonder this game is just going downhill.

I only resorted to recruiting the l60 players once I saw what league we were put in. 70% of the team was carryover from the previous season. I was planning on recruiting guys that were comparable to the others but was left with no choice.

Why do people always resort to insults? I am not an idiot and neither are you, so let's just please leave things constructive-either that or just don't post!

Nothing wrong with the structure of the league. If you recruited older dots, you go into a higher league, it's pretty simple, only recruit dots of the same age group.

Now if you want to find an issue with league structure, there is one, it's in Regional Pro, but for the most part, there just needs to be a bit more care to make sure level 79 dots aren't put into the same League as the level 67 dots advancing.

So this league allows players from ages 140-200. Almost all of my players that carried over from the previous season were at 140 - the bottom of the age bracket for this league. It looks like the majority of my competitors had players at the 200 age level - the top of the age bracket for this league. Those 200 old guys had one season more experience and higher lvl/XP/VA, etc. than my guys.

All I'm saying is that makes for an inherently unbalanced situation. Most of the other teams in this league are OK. I'm just saying that my team shouldn't have been placed in this league. We may be outiers, but it really sucks for us!
