My biggest gripe (cheats aside), is that my club is just like every other club. MLO teams need more character, more variation, just more well everything!!!
imagine having 100 or so mini MLO challenges, things like: 'Score a hatrick', 'keep 5 clean sheets on the trot', have one player assist 100 goals'. Completing each challenge offers a prize, such as unlocking certain classic players, not easily, but something else to work towards.
I agree, as much as I tried to avoid getting the same players as other people, there was just so many position where there is just 1 or 2 great players and its either you get them or you're gonna have to get someone who does not work as well.
With all that being said. I think there is a really easy way to fix that, and it would balance the game much more between those who play a shit load and those that plays one or two games a week:
1)By introducing a salary cap and a discount system based on the division you're in. The higher the division, the higher the salary cap,the lower your division, the higher the discount rate .
I think that this is good in that being in a certain division has both pros and cons giving us a motivation to actually reach D1. This will help lower division teams build a decent squad faster while not allowing them to have as good of a team that a D1 player can obtain due to the salary cap. Having a salary cap, will have people thinking more about which players they get, so there won't be so many of the same teams.
2)And for every player you sell, the money you get for selling them is significantly lower than what you've signed them for. Again the percentage should be based on the division the player is in. Say 50% for D5 and 40% for D4 and so on.
Again, this will have players thinking before they buy their players, and pay consequences for making bad buys, *cough* torres. What this also does is help balance the amount of money between a player who plays alot from those who don't, assuming that they don't use all the same players for 1000 matches.
and the MLO challenges would be awesome, which i think we will see in the future.
