So first season into the beta and my mighty team have seen some rather erratic. There has been some fairly high points 120th in world rankings and a fall from grace backdown to 250th.
Now there can be lots of reasons as to why you move up and down but one of the main reasons is tactics. Now its easy to setup a winning tactic but since most games are against other real people and not a computer coming up a team a few times and they can well workout how to counter your tactic. You need to be able to adapt at any time.
Another factor is money all teams have now more cash to spend on players and wages there for improving there sides. Now i took the route of just strengthening where I need to and not spending too much others have piled into debt buying the top players in the world. As debt works basically money is worked out on a 28 day projection. Earn money per day based on your ranking in the gameworld and also federation money and any transfers or prize funds you may earn. There is flexibility to go a million in debt but hit 2 million and the bank will call in the receivers auction off your players and leave you potless.
The third factor is inactive users now this affects me because I have federation league which I think i highlighted earlier. i have resolution dates to play games by now if the opponents are not logging into the beta makes it difficult to play those games. Wins in federation competitions give more ranking points then other comps or friendlies do. I didn't enter my team into many comps forcing me to play friendlies this I feel contributed to the fall in rankings.
In my fed league XFA Qual Division A I ended up winning and earning my team a place in the XFA Premier league where the truely rich and famous players can be found. Now while its great to win my league putting up my squad against the likes of messi pato etc is quite a scary thought.
The next thing I want to cover is the skills system so that can be my next blog.
