Hi All,

First off, let me just say what an excellent game this is as well as a community as a whole! I've been here for just over a month now, and only now really understanding what I am doing, though I'm 5-1 in match games during that time (not quite sure how that happened, but i'm not complaining )

I'm starting to get the hang of moving my players around and getting them into better positions, but I am uncertain as to what the colors on their stats means (As of yet, I do not have a supporter account, as I want to field-test the game before commiting).

From what I can see, the stats all have one of the following colors; Black, Blue, Green, Gold. I've also noticed this on the 'weeks with club' line as well. I know part of it refers to whether a skill is capped, but I'm not sure about the rest (or for that matter which color is the capped one).

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

And game on, all. Great, great experience here so far.

Welcome


Since I am a bit color blind I cant really help with the question, but the 4 different colors of the skills represent ranges.

Ah, sweet, THANK YOU!

So, no way to know if it's capped unless you have supporter or pay really close attention during training.

Ok, that's good to know. What about under 'weeks at club?' is there any particular reason this gets color coded, or is it just for flavor?

If a player is longer than 20 weeks on your team and you sell him, you have to pay the lowest possible tax.

That sounds like a good thing, yes? Unless you pay no tax if under 20 weeks?

No, if you sell him if he is 1 week, you pay a lot of tax.(the seller pays the tax)
and if you have him 20+ weeks you pay a little bit of tax.
This is to prevent day-trading

Not really. For speed and strength, yes, but for all other skills they depend on talent.

A half star allows them to go to 11, 1 star can go to 12, 1 and a half 13, etc. However, those are the soft caps. A player can go 4 above their soft cap, but it gets less likely every time.

But stamina can go to 20 for all players. It has no cap.
