Skills are described with words, because the intention is to create the actual feel of a player's level of ability, rather than just have a dry collection of numbers. So in this sense, this alteration does destroy the intent of the game design.


If you click on "Set your lineup", there is a new table where i can see all my players skills in numbers. Shall we kill that table too ? since it destroy the intent of the game design like you said. ^_^

Not to mention, when you move your mouse on the skill "e.g. respectable" it will show the number 7, maybe we should kill it too, so we can have a consistent game and give us the actual feel of a player's level of ability.

That was designed to have numbers. The regular player page is not, except for the tooltip.

There's a big difference between a tooltip and having the number right there.

The numbers need to be removed, they are not part of the translation, period.

Now is really confusing, so, shall we have numbers or not ?
If I didn't get lost, some pages are made without numbers to give you actual feel of a player's level of ability (numbers ruins the game).
And some other pages are made full of numbers and no wordings, and that was designed for ?

To me, I think that's we call inconsistency on the information show to the users, since the game should either use numbers for skills for every page or just wordings in every page. A mix of both is really confusing, not to mention inconsistency between different languages UI.

Anyways, I better forget this topic and concentrate my next season preparation. Don't wanna waste my time.

No, and for that matter the Chinese translation shouldn't have been done this way either.

The numbers are available as tool-tips on mouseOver.

False. Copy and paste of skills is common practice and then ...
