Some ML additions I think would be nice

[MysteryMan]

1. Ability to choose clubs after a season ends ( hire/fire ), so if you get fired from a club u have the ability to coach another club ( based on your reputation etc which would determine which clubs you would be wanted in, for example if your reputation is low you would only get offers from low clubs ).

2. Ability to coach national teams, that is all.

3. B Leagues for every league not just one

4. Full youth teams that play games aswell and grow as players, you could call up these players into your team at any time you want ( in case of injuries ) and also could promote them to full 1st team at the end of a season.

5. Realistic money ( Man City has tons of money while some low clubs are very poor )

6. Realistic transfers ( im sick of Messi or Rooney or whatever signing for clubs like Osasuna or Napoli or whatever ) , seriously do you just want to piss us off konami? This could easily be done by simply having a affection system that counts, so for example Messi has an incredible high affection for Barca and it would be almost impossible to sign him, and if some club manages to sign a star player it should be the big and rich clubs, not some low grade clubs ( this could also be fixed by making realistic money ( Man City rich , some low clubs poor etc ) aswell as making really star players unwilling to sign for low clubs unless they start getting into certain age 33+

7. Better transfer system ( ability to offer players in deals aswell as money , aswell as MORE offers from MORE clubs, why the hell do I only see 1 offer for my player and thats it? ridicilous...)

8. Better and more realistic injuries ( PES often seems to not have enough and also you should be able to see what kind of injury it is, is it really hard to do that?

9. Better player growth system ( its way too similar and predictable, and it should to some small extent matter if you play more matches or none aswell, im not saying it should matter alot but to some extent , for example if you have a player on ur bench for 3 years not playing a single game he obviously shouldn't grow that much, if he gets like 10 matches per season then he already grows a bit better and if he plays 20+ he grows a bit faster , the difference should not be that big but still noticable )

10. Past winners in tournaments ( rly so hard to ask? ), for example you can see the past winners in CL , so lets say man utd wins it and the next year barca wins and then chelsea ( example ) you can see it clearly
2012 Man Utd
2013 Barca
2014 Chelsea
would be a nice addition, perhaps also past top scorers , would be a nice addition I think

11. more media involvement, so you can read about the news, derbies, transfers etc aswell as urself, for example u lose 5 games in a row and the media starts talking about it and saying will he still be coach at the end of the year, or rumors that x team is looking for a new coach etc.

I hope these will be true.

 

[sydney2008]

I hope so , there is a good idea as you mentioned Mysteryman for the coaches to train and coach national teams , i would like to see that in ML ONLINE , so all of us will have many national teams online which we can play them in a tournament ONLINE such as world cup 2014 or world cup qualifiers and the winner will get a prize from KONAMI such as a T-Shirt or something like that . Thank you .

 

[mr.yes]

yeah , it will be nice to coach national team

 

[Athlon_]

1. The change teams is an interesting idea but I think it would only work if there were actually managers in the game, which I think is a good idea but would take work, as you would have to give the manager AI certain philosophies and every team they have would have to change with the new manager, a big ask to achieve well in the game.

It would also have to be a feature you can deactivate, as I and other ML obsessives like to create our own clubs from scratch and just build them up. Thats no good if you get fired!

3. I wholly agree, ML should be expanded as much as possible with multiple leagues and divisions.

5,6,7,8,9. Agree

10. Majorly agree, I'd love to have a full record of everything that happens in your ML.

I think what you are basically asking for (and me as well) is a FM type game where you play as well. Its my dream too but I think its some way off unfortunately. Most of the things you suggest are quite easily done, but I just don't think enough players or Konami think about PES like this.

 

[adam13]

Gonna like the game if we can change club to manage.

Example: If we manage Bayern Munchen, then we change to other club like Schalke 04...

 

[Ultimate777]

Player hardly got injured at all in master league from what I remember which is just dumb as it doesn't give you any incentive to utilise your whole squad.

They need to add two footed tackles and leg breaks.

Better player growth system ( its way too similar and predictable, and it should to some small extent matter if you play more matches or none aswell, im not saying it should matter alot but to some extent , for example if you have a player on ur bench for 3 years not playing a single game he obviously shouldn't grow that much, if he gets like 10 matches per season then he already grows a bit better and if he plays 20+ he grows a bit faster , the difference should not be that big but still noticable )

Konami have already implemented this type of growth and named it as dynamic growth meaning good peformances mean higher ratings, bad means lower ratings and on the bench means they'll have the same rating so there is no need to complaain about that.

I also think players should increase less for example in my ml, lukaku is 107 which is stupid.

 

[Ali]

Can't fault any of your suggestions. I wouldn't be bothered about managing an international side, personally... but it would be a nice addition. To add to the international aspect, it should be handled better when players go away for international duty, in the sense that they shouldn't all come away knackered.
I bet that if you had a squad full of 25 English players, and they all got called away for duty, they'd all come back shattered!

I think there should be a PROPER calendar. Rather than having "2nd half week 4" etc. The you could have a proper international week, and players could come back fairly fresh.

You mean ' Become a Coach ' it will be wonderful

 

[roblucci]

i think it would be nice if reserves teams match is implemented in during master league season so that we can choose the overall best player among them to be included in the first eleven team.

 

[The Dude]

i personally just want 6 leagues in master league and one division 2.............and i dont like a lot of transfers in master league. i have set on low and there are still a TON of transfers. really annoying

 

[joekim1]

Basically, you want what Football Manager offers in ML. Well, seeing as how Football Manager is as realistic as it gets, I can't say that this would be anything short of brilliant.

 

[Ali]

Contract negotiations need to be better. I have a 35yr old Elmander who is currently on about 3mil. He then asks for about 11mil for 1 extra year! Unbeflippinglievable! Also, you HAVE to offer the player what they ask for, you can't negotiate for a lower price or they'll just put their negotiations on hold!

 

[The Eristic]

I hope they don't force us to go through with the Master League "tutorial" each time we start an ML this year. It wastes half of the first transfer window and makes us bid for a player we probably don't want and often can't afford anyway, so we miss out on most of the free agents critical to making progress when starting with default players and/or a team with a tiny budget. At least let us skip it or bypass it when playing on higher difficulty levels. Most of us know what to do, so let us get on with it!

 

[Jonny16]

All I ever saw when I played Master League (haven't played it in a long time now, couple of years maybe) was Bolton coming top of the Premiership all the time. The transfers in ML were always ridiculous.

Would also like incentive to use other player's. I tend to use reserves a lot anyway in Exhibition based on the arrows, anyone blue/purple doesn't play, red get's a start and orange on the bench for a sub. Maybe something like a happiness rating or is that already part of it?

 

[The Eristic]

Also, bring back the "openness to negotiation" search option. The current "list of targets" are virtually never young players, always players at or past their peak. I only buy players I can grow, and I'd like to have a better idea of who is worth watching before I put them on my scout list. I put tons of young players with no appearances for their current club and contract negotiations on hold on my list, then have to wait forever to find out there's no way they'll join me, no reason given.

Another thing, when negotiations break down due to a player not wanting to compete for his place, I get really annoyed, because if I'm trying to buy a player with better stats than the other players in that position, I'm going to be starting them! The game needs to give us a way to interact with players, like in more developed management games, so we can address issues like that, rather than dismissing our bids out of hand.

Finally, if I'm holding 1st in the English League (which is usually the top-ranked league in the game) with the likes of PES United, I still get the "not interested in a move down" reason from bit part players in D2 or at mid-to-bottom-table clubs in other leagues, just because their team ranking is higher. Ranking updates need to be dynamic, or at least updated more often, so the AI will be more aware of what is and what isn't a move down.

Been playing too much ML today. :^|

Disagree with your point no 6.

Its a game, fantasy world of football. Why cant Napoli become giants and sign Messi in the game. Are you saying the only teams that can ever be big teams are the ones that are already big. Chelsea werent a big team until Abramovich came. Neither were Man city until they got taken over. How do you know that wont happen to a team like Napoli or Ossasuna. Napoli had Maradonna years ago.

But I thought Chelsea had always been a MASSIVE club???

Oh no wait, that's right, they used to get crowds of 15,000 back in the early 90's.

Strange how money changes things?

I'm guessing this means me :happy:

True, it is a fantasy world and it would be cool to see teams that aren't that big at the present become world beaters! However, it is not possible for Bolton to come top of the premiership every year with the players that they have. If we want to see teams become world beaters, we should see something like a takeover and they receive a tonne of money so they can start purchasing the big players.

Either that or the big teams start selling off their star players and start signing pretty average players because of their manager, something Liverpool esque :w00t

Manager's really need to be put in game as they are the ones that really dictate how a team plays and works in the transfer market, looking solely at Arsene Wenger here in how he signs young talent that works in his system.
