PLANNED WORKS

⚽ Drinks and their validity period (30 days) – Due to numerous player requests, this change will be implemented at the end of September. From the moment the change is introduced, players will have 30 days to use any unused drinks. This means you have 3 more months to use up your accumulated drinks.

🔸 IMPORTANT: the change does not apply to drinks needed to craft MID and TOP historical items – these drinks will not be covered by the time limit.

⚽ Subscription Change to Season Pass – Some rewards will be available immediately, while others can be claimed through the calendar as you complete tasks.

⚽ Team Invitations – Adding the ability to send team invitations.

REJECTED IDEAS

At this point, we haven’t rejected any ideas from the list of Planned Works. 

PLAYERS’ QUESTIONS

🤔 Is it possible to add levels of undershirts? Green (base 50)/Red (base 100)/Gold (base 200)/Platinum (base 400), etc.

We do not plan to add tiers to undershirts. They are special items that will always be obtainable only in Top Teams of the Week, so we don't plan to add the possibility of their manufacturing.

🤔 Can a filter be added when searching for particular rewards in card collections? That would let players easily find a particular reward corresponding to a collection.

Thanks for your suggestion. We will add it to the task list.

🤔 Is it possible to reduce the cost of losing health in the Champions Tournament to the same level as in the European Tournament, so that more teams want to play in it?

At this point, we are not planning to rebalance health. We are currently observing the effect of undershirts on gameplay. In the future, health regeneration will also be possible in a special building. 

🤔 Is it possible to add SJ cards to the game? There is nothing more fair than game journalists having a series of cards. 

Anticipate an exciting event where the community will have the opportunity to choose the FootballTeam legends we've overlooked. At least 12 epic cards will be selected by the players. More details will be available in early August.

🤔 Could you add a table in the club tab that shows which players have and haven’t completed the daily calendar challenge?

Thanks for your suggestion. We will add it to the task list.

🤔 Are there plans to add team rewards for completing daily challenges by all team players on any given day?

We are initially adding this idea to the task list. We will think about the rewards. 

🤔 Is it possible to add the opening of multiplied Card Packs, such as bronze, silver, etc., without the closing animation, only at the end of opening the multiplied pack. Example: we decide to open x3 Card Packs, so the closing animation will appear after 15 cards, not after 5.

We are considering various solutions. We are working on one that would not burden the game server and would satisfy the players. If we find a suitable solution, we will definitely inform you.  

🤔 Is it possible to add a tag showing whether you have completed and collected all the rewards from the daily challenges? Something like this:

Thanks for your suggestion. We will add it to the task list.

🤔 Optimization of the Food/Work module – animation reduction:

🔸change the animation to be displayed only at the beginning for 5-10 seconds.

🔸animation will be active only when hovering over specific food/work.

🔸Less idle animation and less consumption of computer/phone power.

We are constantly working on optimizing all modules in the game, thank you for your feedback. We will pay attention to it. 

🤔 Is it possible to add Buy – Offers option for some items:

🔸fragments

🔸drinks

🔸crystals

🔸packs

We have been thinking about adding a “buy” option for a long time, but it is very problematic and puts a heavy load on the servers. Therefore, at this point we do not have a clear answer to this question. 

🤔 We suggest adding trick duels for teams. This would keep many people motivated to play in this mode and would give every team a chance to win, since not only cards but also skill count in this module.

Thank you for your feedback. We will add this idea to the task list.

🤔 Is it possible to to the team menu information about the current training level per player?

🔸lomax20001 – 8800 trainings

🔸Lomax20001 B – 1200 trainings, etc.

Brilliant idea. We will add it to the task list. 

🤯Several proposals from player Messive:

🔸"Are you planning to add a button to skip the animation in opening card packs?"

We are considering this option.

🔸“Conquer the League”.  – Qualify with the club X times to SL.  New club achievements.

It is possible that we will add such an achievement in the season mode or as a one-time achievement. 

🔸"Card reroll system: The ability to reload a card's stats once we have it. "

We are considering this option.

SERVER MERGER PHASE II 

We are continuing work on the creation of the Legacy server. It will be created from a combination of three servers – Western Europe, Eastern Europe and Central Europe. The Legacy server will be our main server and will never be closed. We will merge other servers with it if necessary. 

👉 The time of the Legacy server will be set to GMT +2. 

👉 Support, news, and notifications of the server will be available in Polish, English, Spanish, Russian and Portuguese. 

👉 The server will retain its standard settings. 

We are currently after the first phase of server merging. It is time for Phase II – on Monday, August 26, we will merge the EU East server with Legacy L1. Thus, there will be a Legacy server. We encourage you to prepare now for the server merger. Expect detailed information in the coming days.
