I'm not convinced that would make the game more fun.. although i agree with you it would make it more realistic. It would seem to me that adding such an effect would make it harder for teams to explore different tactics and try to outguess their opponents. Everyone would get really good at one or two tactics and you would know what your opponent was going to do.

it is already the case that if your tactic doesn't match your teams makeup you are at a disadvantage.. so i think adding such an effect might be too much.

Obviously I respect your opinion, but I would at leat ask you to give it some serious thought with the other BB's.

At the very least I think there needs to be less of an emphasis on matching tactics. Right now it is just too easy to bounce back and forth and making it a guessing game, much more than playing to your own teams strengths.

I urge the BB's to consider this ,as I think keeping things the same and making the game easier for people to just pick up and play isn't a good long term endeavor. The more realistic it is the better the chance of long term success. If people, over time, realize that there is too much luck on guessing your opponents tactics, they will have a higher chance to flee.

Just my opinion (and probably a lot of others' as well).

I am definitely considering it.. i mean.. the reason i write a reply with my thinking in it is to help push the debate forward amongst the BBs and the users. I'd rather have as open debate as possible where all the issues are laid out and no matter what we decide the users have some insight into why it was that we decided to do something that way. I hope I haven't turned you off to the debate in general, and I think you'll find throughout the forums I don't just shoot down ideas on principal.

I'd love to hear what other users think and feel... if what you say is true and users find the tactical uncertainty to be more annoying than fun then that would affect my viewpoint. I'm not sure that I believe that your viewpoint is shared by the majority of users.. then again I don't have any real basis for saying that. So I hope others chime in and help shape our understanding of the user's consensus.

if what you say is true and users find the tactical uncertainty to be more annoying than fun then that would affect my viewpoint.

Truthfully, at the moment I find it's pretty much a case of "meh, anything could happen in this match" just before it starts.
It's still fun, but it could be more so.

Naturally, when I think about tactics "experience", I think about how formation experience works in Hattrick - and I don't find that perfect either.

Tactics could perhaps be held at certain levels by coaches? If you play those tactics you also get a bonus "maintenance" % (like practice levels on players).
If you make the coaches more important, where higher level coaches can maintain more tactics types at higher levels, this might make sense... (bah @ extra wages, but the advantages probably even out with this extra cost).
