Caius Joaquinum Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I´m playing as Cork City an irish team. Well I managed to promote them to the top irish division and after a while I´ve started to dominate the league, buy great players and reach group stage of Champions League. I won everything and did pretty well in three years in a row. But, my reputation is dropping. I was the top club in Ireland, but surprisingly, after my best season Cork became the second one. Strange, but OK, no problem about that. The problem is that the irish league is dropping positions in the european ranking as h*ll. Three seasons ago the league was in the 66 spot, two seasons ago in the 88 spot, and this season, with me reaching CL groups and with more teams becoming Pro, the league is the spot number 121. This is really stupid. I mean, teams becoming Pro, better players in the league, even one team that reaches CL groups, and the price for all of this is to get behind lithuanian league. Any ideas?

Caius Joaquinum Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Why? The other teams are following me. I mean, they are also becoming pro, and buying great players. In fact, Shamrock Rovers stole one of my best players paying 725.000 euros. And why my reputation drop behind Shamrock´s one? Because of this sale?

NicKC13573 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 are they doing better in Europe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caius Joaquinum Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Better than which teams? Because if u ask me if they are doing better than the spanish, english or italian teams. They are not. But they are doing better in Europe than lithuanians, montenegrins... And that leagues are ahead of the irish. And repeat, Cork reached groups of CL.

BiggusD Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 That's an extremely low reputation for a top division in a nation that have teams in the European cups. Ireland shouldn't do too badly in World Cup and European Championship qualifications as well. Seems very strange! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizza Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 That sounds like something for the bugs board, perhaps with a saved game too. That is totally contrary to how it should be working (and how I've experienced league reputation working in my own long term games). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caius Joaquinum Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 My team reputation is also going down. I was the first team in terms of reputation in Ireland and now im the third one even when I´m winning everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alw02005 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Had this problem with the SPL. Posted it here also. Reached last 16 of CL with Aberdeen and the league's reputation went down the toilet. The Austrian FA Cup moved above us. Bizarre and yes, very possibly a bug.

I wouldn't have thought European performances make any difference to league rep. European performances = co-efficients = entry into European competition Quality of league/teams/players and maybe some other things = League rep Two totally different things.

BiggusD Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Check the league's reputation with FMRTE against the reputation in the database to see if it has actually dropped or just increased less than the ones around it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a bug with prize money in that competition, and I think it might have a big effect on reputation as well, as I had a situation similar to yours.

Fabian Jonsson Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Sounds pretty much like what's happening to me. I've dominated the Swedish premier league 7 straight seasons, gone through to the first knock-out round of the Champions league 4 straight years, etc. AIK (who has been knocked out before the group stages of the Europa league 4 years in a row and has finished 2-4 in the league the same years) have passed me in rep, and the Swedish premier league has still a really low rep. Not sure if it's actually decreased though... Sounds like a bug to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. But what spectacular thing happened in the Austrian FA Cup (Austria not being a loaded nation) that sprung it up in terms of reputation above the SPL? There's no reasoning given for what makes a league or competition increase or decrease in reputation. What factors into a league being more respected and having a better reputation? 1. Success in Europe. 2. Quality of players in the competition. 3. Overall quality of the teams playing in the competition. 4. Reputation of the teams in the competition. That's the four most fundamental things that affect competition reputation, right? So I performed well in Europe, brought bigger name players to the league (as other teams did too, therefore increasing the overall quality of those teams) and my own club's reputation rocketed following my good performance in Europe. It must have been one helluvan Austrian Cup final. That's all I can say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know for sure but I'll say it again - I don't believe success in Europe makes any difference to competition rep (Although there is perhaps a knock on effect through team rep). If you asked me to guess I would say competition rep is made up of a mixture of team rep for that division & the player rep of their first team players.

fabioke Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 If your information is correct, then I could only conclude that this is a bug, there is no logic reason that Shamrock is above you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robioto Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 It's obviously a problem I've seen a number of posts on this obard regarding this. Also ignore the people that reletlessly defend the game, they appear in every topic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caius Joaquinum Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 The conclusion is that those leagues are "unplayable" in long term games? I can´t make any progress if all of my players want to leave. I´m earning loads of money because of forced sells, but it´s a waste of money because of dividends. #18 The problem is that I´m not just below Shamrock, even Sligo has surpassed me in terms of reputation... Not because of their reputation skyrocketing, just because my reputation is dropping like h*ll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caius Joaquinum Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 I think that at least I´ve found why my team was dropping reputation so hard. Extracted from the latest changelog: - Stopped transfers having too big an impact on minor club's reputation. I´ve sell lots of good old players that are replaced by young and unknown stars. Most of these transfers have been between me and my rivals, so that´s the reason that lies behind my dramatic reputation drop and the rise of the others. I´ll still have to test what´s going on with league reputation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
