And by "player talents", we mean the strengths, weaknesses and overall assessment provided by scout report (if available). Oh, and feel free to comment in this thread in any language.

That's a really good news! It takes too much time to browse the transfer market at the moment which makes me reluctant to compete in other categories than U18. Another major feature would be filtering the list based on talents and maxings. Anyway, good direction! Appreciated!That's a really good news!

Most of us can already see that since we're using a user script that let's us see that. BUT... if you can make sure that we can filter search results based on specific parameters on the talent report (i.e. I want to see only 4* high, 2* low players), THEN it will actually make a big difference!

I hope you cant filter players based on their scouting report. That would be very boring. Managers will only focus on 4 star report. You can find good players with 2/2 stars.I hope you cant filter players based on their scouting report. That would be very boring. Managers will only focus on 4 star report.

Boa implementação! Gostaria de sugerir duas melhorias que, na minha opinião, agregariam muito ao jogo: 1️⃣ Tradutor embutido no jogo: Atualmente, o MZ é um jogo global, mas a barreira do idioma dificulta a interação entre os usuários nos fóruns e em outras áreas. Minha sugestão é a implementação de um tradutor automático no jogo, permitindo que os textos nos fóruns e mensagens privadas possam ser traduzidos para o idioma do usuário. Isso facilitaria a comunicação e fortaleceria ainda mais a comunidade. 2️⃣ Troféus personalizados para cada Copa Oficial: As Copas Oficiais, como National, Champions, Winners, Top Teams, Season, Defenders, Endurance, Keepers, Generations, entre outras, são torneios de grande prestígio. No entanto, atualmente os troféus são genéricos. Seria incrível se cada competição tivesse um troféu único e exclusivo, tornando a conquista ainda mais especial para os vencedores. Acredito que essas melhorias deixariam o jogo mais dinâmico e envolvente para todos. O que acham dessa ideia? Vamos apoiar para que o MZ continue evoluindo!Boa implementação!

Excellent implementation. Congratulations! If I may, I would like to suggest a historical correction to the game. In countries with few users, new managers have a great advantage over new managers in countries with a large number of managers, such as Brazil, Argentina and Sweden, among others. To begin with, by creating their clubs in these smaller countries, members can easily reach the top divisions such as the main series or division 1. And, by achieving this easily, they enjoy perks that other managers from larger countries cannot. As an example, we can mention the possibility of obtaining much higher incomes in both League and Cup games, if their stadiums are properly proportioned. Previously, there was a small barrier for these users from small countries, in relation to signing players of their own nationality, since, with few members, there would not be many options in the transfer market. Today, however, with the foreign quotas and extended work visas, this has not been resolved for them. It is possible to create a team with starters and reserves who are all foreigners in certain countries. We can easily see clubs created in 2023 or even 2024, in these small countries, ranking among the world's top teams. I don't think that's fair. I've been playing ManagerZone since 2004. Unfortunately, I had to stop for a while and came back in 2001 and created this new team. I'm quite active, a club member, I compete in all possible championships and today, thanks to a lot of effort, I'm in the 2nd division in Brazil, which is quite competitive. While new members, when they create their clubs in countries with few users, start in the 3rd or 2nd division and, without any effort, reach the main series and earn a lot of money for the club with the income from cups and leagues. My suggestion is that the national leagues be eliminated, or that the value of the income be equalized according to the size of that country, in number of users. Or simply that they remove this restriction on creating clubs only in the country of origin, that would solve everything. In any case, I appreciate the opportunity and I will continue to be a fan and play ManagerZone. Thank you.Excellent implementation. Congratulations!

Çok faydalı bir güncelleme teşekkürler. Sizden bir isteğim olacak transfer arama bölümünde oyuncu araması yaparken arama kriterleri kısmına oyuncu yüksek potansiyelleri yıldız sayıları için bir bölüm konulabilir mi? Örneğin 4-2, 4-1, 3-2, 3-1 yıldız oyunculardan istediğimiz bir gurubu aratabilmeliyiz. Birde transfer listesinde görüp beğenmediğimiz oyuncuları gizleyip her aramada görmesek harika olur.Çok faydalı bir güncelleme teşekkürler.

Thank you for a very useful update.
I have a request from you, while searching for players in the transfer search section, can we put a section for player high potentials and star numbers in the search criteria section?
For example, we should be able to search for a group we want from 4-2, 4-1, 3-2, 3-1 star players. Also, it would be great if we hide the players we see in the transfer list and don't like and don't see them in every search.

Although not directly related to the current topic, I would like to drop two cents about some other areas real quick, as some crew eyes would definitely be on here:

1) Tactics editor needs some adjustments for further quality of life:

- For when any player is sent of via red card, the current rule, which simply picks the forward position player with least kit number to replace the gap position, is constraining us managers ability to practice the tactical versatility. Instead, we find ourselves juggling with our alternative tactics as well as kit numbers, which should be for tactical freedom and team lore respectfully.

I and many others wish we would able to swap any two players positions simply through a tactical rule instead of having to sacrifice a whole alternative slot. This would also, if implemented accordingly, solve the first problem above if we could swap the position of a sent of player with any other remaining player of our own selection.

- Empty tactic slots, upon selection for an upcoming fixture game, should also display a warning like their counterparts with missing, unavailable, or unsuitable players.

- An increase in both bench size and substitutions is another idea, however I would understand not disturbing the current essence of the managerzone. However, if it were to be considered, it would be received very positively in my opinion.

2) I have other, rather more complex, suggestions for the direction of improvement for managerzone, including things like free agent and/or loan markets, howevery I will not be discussing them here due complexity, instead I already have forum discussions open/contributed in english and turkish forums.

You are going off topic, I'll answer but I will try keep it snappy. 😊 The issue you are mentioning is a byproduct of putting on emphasis on local competition and community, while having global competitions and marketplace at the same time. Most games don't really go this route, since it opens up a range of tricky questions about how to regulate and how to balance the economy. In ManagerZone we have a long history of trying to find creative solutions rather than dumbing down the game. Yes, clubs in smaller leagues can reach the top in their country more easily, and this has certain important benefits. But on the other hand, their player market is much more limited (due to foreign player quotas, as you mentioned) which means they become more reliant on home grown talent. An elite manager in Andorra may npt be able to have both a Senior and a U21 team, both packed full of top talent, like a manager in Argentina have. The Andorran manager also has to think harder about how to compensate for players that are missing due to training camps and the like, because their own homegrown players has to step in when key players are away. This may not be a problem in the beginning, but once they start to become more competitive on the global scale, managers from other countries start to have an edge. We compensate in various ways, with availability chips (to become less reliant on backup players), quicker rise to the national top division, and national cups like you mentioned. So with all that I just want to say that none of this is left to chance. It is a careful balance, and finding that balance is an ongoing, organic process. We constantly discuss the things you mentioned, and make tweaks when needed. Because we think it is worth it in the end.

We compensate in various ways, with availability chips (to become less reliant on backup players), quicker rise to the national top division, and national cups like you mentioned.

So with all that I just want to say that none of this is left to chance. It is a careful balance, and finding that balance is an ongoing, organic process. We constantly discuss the things you mentioned, and make tweaks when needed. Because we think it is worth it in the end.

Regarding whether or not to show stars in the search filter, which many have suggested, we'll need to do some thinking. We won't make any promises now, because there are some pro's and con's that have to be carefully considered.Regarding whether or not to show stars in the search filter, which many have suggested, we'll need to do some thinking.

Thanks for your suggestions. It was an interesting read, you clearly have put a lot of thoughts into this. Many of your suggestions are ones that we have discussed extensively. A quick note: we are reluctant to give managers too much automatic aid in dealing with suspensions and injuries, because we feel that managers who are active and alert in responding to these situations should be rewarded accordingly.

The big perk is the ability to read and analyze training graphs. This will give you additional insights into a player's training speed, and will let you track your own players (as well as those on the market) training progress in a way that non-members can't.

This would be very convenient and comfortable. But opening the scout report manually = putting time and effort. This is the edge that active dedicated managers have. But anyway, if you are going to display scout stars in UI, you might as well add it to the filters now. Let’s go full convenience as part of club membership

.. one simple way imo could be to show realistic values of the players .. the value should go up to 20/30 millions, not end with ~ 1,4 mio ... but I don´t know on which critera the value is made now, it should not "leak" the real good players either ;-)

Is there going to be a tweak on the approximate salary that is shown when buying a player ? In my experience it is not accurate . Cheers HoffaIs there going to be a tweak on the approximate salary that is shown when buying a player ? In my experience it is not accurate .

Good update on removing hidden training graphs. Not sure on making maxings and stars counts visible without having to click into the reports. Whilst it simplifies the process, I feel like a big part of what makes the transfer market great is having to spend time to uncover talent/ key unmaxed skills.Good update on removing hidden training graphs.
