I am getting tired of saying that the training issue is being worked on and looked at.


There is more to the above quote admittedly. If anyone wants to read it please see page 1.

@rebsiot,
I'm tired of the training also. I'm tired of failed communication from the developers. I'm tired of there being no FAQs before the new sim and training was released. You mentioned skills - hey those may be great. Maybe a 5 panther save 45 avg goalie is better than a 1 panther save 75 goalie. Who knows as nobody was told how skill points are acquired, what the actually do (for most of them) etc etc. Maybe knowing this in advance would've calmed some of the storm?

I'm tired of seeing repeated failures by the devs and/or owners. The keep messing up the same things over and over again. Primarily communication. I've said this in other threads - their project plan, if they even have one, is atrocious. Its as if they own the game but have never developed for a project. I can speak a bit to this if you care to discuss further. The primary objective is to keep and build a player base (stakeholders). Project objective 1 - clear communication with the stakeholders. They failed. Repeatedly. If I were you, I'd be tired of the devs/owners continually changing things and then feeding you to the wolves with zero information. That would start to grind on me.

I guess that's why I'd be tired. Seeing the same threads over and over again should send a message to the devs/owners.

Maybe there should be an issues resolved log that is stickied? Maybe that would help? Maybe additional FAQs would help? Maybe additional communication regarding the future and plan of the game? Again, you four new @s are a great asset - I've said that before.

I could keep going but I've said enough. Hopefully things change for the better.

I started that yesterday before the first post in this thread. . Not sure which one it is because I'm on mobile.

It is the first post in doubts and questions I think.

It lists the top 10 bugs by priority and the things done.... And the dates even.

I was tired of poor communication also, and was THE MOST vocal critic, but I think that anyone complaining of that now has seriously not been paying attention. Some @ responds to over 95% of posts, we have improved the faq and tutorials, put out a prioritized bug list, had the "league on fire" issue resolved., demonstrated that we are applying pressure to the development to pick up the pace, threatened to resign on more than one occasion to get it done.

All in like 10 days or so.

And about that plan. You are right. But we are trying to fix it. It's one developer. @internat. As far as I know. We have the priority list now and that will help direct efforts.

But we need your help. Complaining about stuff that was true 2 weeks ago but simply isn't the case now is not help. Saying something "sucks" when *its already been addressed and even changed* does nothing.

It's whining.

We are working relentlessly to get this thing cleaned up and understandable. So, to me, saying you are tired of something that was the case 2 weeks ago is something I call "driving through the rearview mirror "

Look forward, not back.

Resolved log was done yesterday
At least 2 additional faqs have been posted.
In all of our posts we try to say what's happening.

The future direction short term is to fix these bugs and make the game not just playable, but enjoyable too. That's what we're all here for.

@reb I think we agree on many points. I'm not complaining about communication from the 4 @s. Its great and I've said that multiple times and even started a thread about it awhile ago.

My issue with the communication regarding most everything is about the game changes. We and you don't (didn't?) know about the training changes skill points, senior training limits, jr temp promoted motivation etc etc from the devs. That's my issue - not you 4 @s.

Also good to know bugs are tracked and prioritized - I mustve missed that thread. Also, did training change? I'm on mobile and can't tell nor can I see the individual attributes increase while on mobile.

You said you want help. I'm offering assistance.

@reb is old and grouchy at times like me.

I think, given the situation, they've done well.

I'll do my best to contribute in a positive way too.

Training rates were doubled yesterday.

My best junior can probably put 10 points on this season. It may be subject to future tweaking depending on how this rate works out.

I think it will need a little bit more, but we'll see how this rate works.

We are trying to get a bug forum set up... That will help clean up some of this mess.

I think experience and skills is dealt with in the new faq. It's not much, but it's a start.

The developer probably won't get on these forums, that's why we were made @, to get their message out and send yours up the line.

If you notice a pattern on one of the bugs, that helps. If you see a tactic that doesn't end up with goofy subs, let us know. Gk holds the ball... All the bugs. But this thread... This sucks... Only ends up wasting time and pissing people off. Especially when it is complaining about things that have been fixed to some extent.
