I was always thinking that the fan survey is bugged, now I am 100% sure.

I sold off most of my roster before the playoffs, had between 0.5 and 1.5 points in the "star player" category before the firesale, and now I get 4-4.5 balls.

EDIT: In all those years I played this game I had never more than 1.5 balls in the player category, btw.

On top of that my merchandise income went up by more than 10%, the highest amount I have ever made so far.

what happened here?

You sold four players, 2 for $1000 each, one for $100 000, and one for $826 200. Then you bought a very good outside player for $350 000 with over $ 90 000 salary, who was fielded in 10 U21 games at one time. I cannot put that in the "selling of most of the roster" category, and the fact that the new player played for his U21 NT *might* explain the merchandise rise. I'm not saying it did, but there's a possibility of a correlation there.

I sold players that made up like 90% of my salaries. The cornerstones of that team! How can the fan survey skyrocket from 1 ball to 4.5?

The raise in merchandise is a welcome bonus, however I don't see the logic behind that. That bloke is 27 (28 soon), his U21 days are long gone...

You sold your highest paid players ($120k and $30k), but acquired a player that has a pretty big salary himself ($90k). I'm sure you know the difference between outside and inside players and their salaries, which makes salary a pretty bad indication of value in this case. Think of it like this: the fans were disappointed to see two of their favorite players go, but are very excited to see a former U21 NT member come and strengthen the team.

The raise in merchandise could have been a result of many things, not necessarily just your transfer activity.

Back to 1 ball - why is that?

Only reasonable explanation is that you only got schizophrenic people in your fanclub=)


Thats not funny at all. I obviously reported a bug and was brushed off by a developer and now a GM wants to ridicule me. Not cool.

Not ridiculing, but after you sell your teams most expensive, most popular player, it will take a while to rebuild the fans trust. I don't have a magic window for how long, I'd guess, 2 to 3 more weeks, before it bounces back.

Come one mane. For the slow ones:

I NEVER had more than 1 ball in like three years in this game. I sold off all my core players and suddenly the survey skyrockets to 4.5 balls.

4.5 balls with GARBAGE roster.

I buy the serbian guy, that played U21 like six seasons ago (whatever imo) - familiar with star players remains high, one day later its back down to 1 ball.

There is NO LOGIC EXPLANATION for that - so the next bess guess would be that this has to be a bug.

Don't bullshit a bullshitter, forreal.
