Developer Q&A – S2 Community Feedback & Updates

We appreciate all the feedback from our players! Below is a summary of your questions and our responses regarding ongoing improvements, planned features, and future considerations.

Gameplay & Mechanics

Q: The training books are too hard to obtain. Can you increase the sources?
A: While the sources remain the same, we are increasing the total amount of training books available.

Q: Can we have the ability to edit or delete messages in the chat window?
A: This is a low-priority task, but we will consider it for future updates.

Q: Will there be a transfer system to buy and sell players?
A: No plans for this feature at the moment.

Q: Can we assign specific players for set-piece kicks (e.g., free kicks, penalties, corners)?
A: The AI currently assigns the best player for the role. This feature is in the pipeline.

Q: The Football Pitch mode in Invitational Tournaments is too difficult. Even after using all my stamina, I can only win one match.
A: We will optimize the difficulty by implementing a dynamic matching system that adjusts based on your strongest players. This will take some time to develop.

Q: Can player traits (features) also inherit levels, just like player level inheritance?
A: We are considering this idea and will discuss it further.

Q: Can we change the substats of skills so that players can choose the attributes they want?
A: No plans for this feature at the moment.

Account & Security

Q: Some accounts were banned due to a bug with traits and player cards. Can you provide a clear explanation of the ban duration?
A: We are confirming the unban time and will update affected players.

Leagues & Competitions

Q: Will we be able to see players from other leagues, such as America or Saudi Arabia?
A: Yes! We plan to add them in September.

Q: Can we get a reporting system to handle harassment and offensive messages?
A: Yes! The reporting system will launch in March.

Q: Guild War rewards are too low, only giving 81-rated players. Can you improve them?
A: We will be increasing the rewards for Guild vs. Guild battles. Additionally, we will provide more plane tickets that can be used for scouting, giving players better opportunities to strengthen their teams. Stay tuned for the update!

Q: Can silver card players be more useful? For example, events that only allow players from the same club.
A: We are considering an authentic mod for this purpose.

Q: Can duplicate player cards of the same player be used as upgrade materials?
A: Currently under consideration.

Player Progression & Balancing

Q: The new season has drastically reduced resource availability, including training materials, cash, guild gifts, and contest shop items. This limits player growth.
A: We are reviewing this and will increase reward values accordingly.

Q: Will the player warehouse be expanded, for example, from 500 to 1000 slots?
A: Yes, this is already planned and scheduled for implementation.

Q: The guild shop update frequency changed from daily to weekly, reducing available purchase options.
A: It’s back to daily refresh.

Q: City Sponsorship rewards have decreased. Can they be restored?
A: Rewards will be adjusted based on the operation cycle, we will increase it in the future.

Coach & Strategy Features

Q: Can coach buffs apply to all formations of the same type? (e.g., 4-3-3 Defensive and 4-3-3 Wing Play)
A: Not planned for now.

Q: Can we have more ways to earn trait experience?
A: We are considering adding more ways through future events.

Q: Can rare gifts have a "claim all" option?
A: This is planned and will be scheduled for implementation.

ICON Players & Chemistry System

Q: Since ICON players have high chemistry bonuses, most players only use them, making other players less useful. Can you balance this?
A: We will introduce League Chemistry and adjust chemistry bonuses to improve balance.

UI & Quality of Life Improvements

Q: The map marker numbers are confusing. Can we use region or country names instead?
A: Due to political sensitivities, we will optimize this in a different way.

Q: High-level areas cannot search for low-level buildings. Can this be improved?
A: Yes! We plan to improve the search function.

Q: Can we save and load stored formations when setting up a team?
A: No plans for this feature at the moment.

Q: Can we add a "one-click star upgrade" for silver and bronze cards instead of upgrading them one by one?
A: Not planned at this time.

Q: Can we add a player stat comparison feature?
A: Yes! A new comparison feature is in development.

Gacha & Card Pools

Q: Can we bring back Season 1 card pools at half price?
A: Not planned at this time.

Q: Will there be regular updates to the red card (superstar) pool every season?
A: Not planned at this time.

Q: Can gacha banners show the odds for each featured player instead of just the overall rating percentage?
A: Yes! This is planned for a future update.

Guild & Social Features

Q: Can guild officers sort members by login time, total online time, match points, or team power?
A: Yes! This feature is planned for a future update.

Q: Can guild messages be separated from system messages instead of being in the same inbox?
A: Not planned at this time.

Q: Can important guild messages be pinned so they don't get lost?
A: Yes! This feature is in development.

Gameplay Guides & Explanation Requests

Q: Can we have an in-game guide explaining formation counterplay, tactics, club/national team chemistry, competition scoring, and defense mechanics?
A: Yes! The community will be producing more guides in the future.

Q: Can attacking another player’s main city consume stamina/action points, have a cooldown after losing, and transfer fans to the winner?
A: This could lead to fan exploitation. We are exploring alternative gameplay mechanics.

User Interface & System Improvements

Q: Can "one-click stamina recovery" apply to all players in the team instead of calculating individually?
A: The UI design is currently being optimized.

Q: Can new messages in the communication system be pinned to the top?
A: This is a low-priority task but is planned for future updates.
