Football, Tactics & Glory News

A new huge expansion is announced!



For the past six months, we have been working hard on a huge new expansion that would reveal new facets of Football, Tactics & Glory.

Today we are ready to tell you about the main features that will appear in this expansion.

Three main features

So here are the three big new features we've been asked most:
  1. Ability to move from club to club;
  2. World Cup and Continental national tournaments;
  3. You will be able to be hired as the main coach of a national team.
It's a screen that shows your personal career through all the clubs you were a coach in.


Reputation

A new resource will be introduced: Reputation. To be invited to a more prestigious club or even to the national team, you need to accumulate a large amount of it.

It is earned when you complete the club's tasks. But if you fail the task, you will lose Reputation and may be fired.

You can see the management's mood on this screen. Also, the screen shows what the management expects of you this season.


Different ways of playing

For those players who want to play the game 'the old way' with the same club, but still get all the new mechanics, a special level of management's difficulty will be introduced: 'Friendly'. In this mode, you will receive tasks and earn Reputation, but you will not be fired until you decide to leave the club yourself.

There will also be other management's difficulty levels: from very strict to loyal.

There, you can choose a management's difficulty. Also, you can get a lot of Reputation and get invitations from the top clubs right from the start. But it will disable achievements.


Worldwide Journey

So far, in the working version, you can only go to the clubs of your country. But we are planning to start simulating the whole world. Therefore, you will receive offers from different countries. Moreover, the rating of the countries will be taken into account. I.e. even if you have enough Reputation to lead the top club in Ukraine, it may not be enough to be invited to the top club in Spain.

Before the campaign starts, you can limit the number of countries that will be simulated and from which invitations will come. This will make the simulation of the world to be faster.

There, three England clubs invite me to be their coach. You can see that they have different ambitions and therefore, give different rewards for their tasks.


Final notes

We have already done a tremendous amount of work. After all, in order for these changes to be possible, we had to redo the internal structure of the game, as well as rework the collection of statistics. But in the already working dev version of the game, the ability to complete the tasks of the clubs, earn Reputation, be fired, etc. create many new interesting unique stories.

Also, there will be other features and improvements, which we will talk about later.

As the internal structure of the game changes, you will have to start a new campaign. But it seems to me that this will be a new unique adventure that will be exciting to live.

The expansion is scheduled for release this fall.

In order to play this expansion, you will need to purchase the base game + Football Stars.

Since we are planning to add national teams and the World / Europe / America / Asia / Africa Championships, the more countries there are in the game, the better.

A Little Update

  • In some situations, the achievement Record Holder didn't register. Fixed.
  • Fixed some rare situations in which the game might crash.
  • Fixed some mistakes in French translation.

Spring Update of Football Stars

We have two good news!

First, we decided to make another big expansion for FTG. We have even already started working on it. There's a lot of groundwork to change the inner game's structure in order to support planned mechanics. So it won't be made soon.

We will tell you more details in about 2 months.

Second: today we want to please you with a small update for Football Stars that polishes some rough edges in the game.

[h3]List of improvements[/h3]
  • Fixed rare game crashes after the cutscene with the celebration of the win in a competition. Crashes happened due to the fact that you could click with the cursor while game data was loaded on a slow PC.
  • If the goalkeeper of the AI ​​team received a second yellow card, the AI ​​replaced the goalkeeper, and 11 footballers remained on the pitch (there should have been 10). Fixed.
  • Sometimes the AI ​​would leave the goal empty if the goalkeeper earned a red card. Fixed.
  • Now the AI ​​will try to keep no more than one goalkeeper in substitutions. The rest of the goalkeepers will be sent to the second squad if there is room for them.
  • Groups were formed incorrectly in continental tournaments. Teams will now be split into four baskets according to country rankings. Each group will have one random team from each basket.
  • In continental qualifiers, pairs are now matched according to country rankings. The teams are divided into two baskets. A pair consists of teams from each basket. Previously, baskets were formed by the power of the teams.
  • In the early stages of domestic cups, pairs of teams were sometimes formed incorrectly (the draw could put two teams from the lower league playing against each other). Fixed.
  • Added the names of the footballers in the kick-off cut scene.
  • Teams did not use abbreviations from the modifications in Hot Seat. Fixed.
  • The 'Attributes' menu item in the gear menu in the match was removed. It was an unfinished feature that did nothing in the released version.
  • On the experience earning screen after the match, the light was incorrectly illuminating the hair, making it darker than it should have been. Fixed.
  • Some buttons were not displayed when the PS4 controller was connected. Fixed.
  • Inaccuracies in French localization have been fixed.

By the way, in the next expansion, we plan to add new countries, including a new continent - Africa. You can help us a lot with this by adding data on those countries that you would like to see in the game.

Little Update to the Lunar New Year

Recently, we have released a big update that fixed many bugs and improved usability. However, there are still a few notable problems in the game which we wanted to fix.

Improvements
  • Team pairs will now be matched in a new way in the qualifying rounds of continental tournaments. The teams are divided into two baskets according to their strength. A random team from a stronger basket will play against a random team from a weaker basket. This will lead to more interesting qualifying pairs and more interesting dynamics in the ranking of countries.
  • Previously, teams have sought to keep more goalkeepers 'just in case'. Now they will be more inclined to get rid of extra goalkeepers.
  • Improved the logic behind appearing footballers from the Youth Academies in the AI teams. Now, there will be fewer situations when there are many footballers of the same class in a team.


Fixed bugs
  • In the last update, we made the goalkeeper automatically return to the goal if he is in the penalty area at the beginning of an enemy turn. It didn't always work. We made it always work :)
  • If your team is completely full, then a footballer from a youth academy went on transfers as a free agent. When opening his career screen, the game crashed. Fixed.
  • AI ​​still sometimes could not position the goalkeeper correctly during the substitution. Fixed these situations.
  • Fixed crashes after a match in a Hot Seat tournament.
  • Very rare crashes after the statistics screens at the end of the season have been fixed.

FTG is translated to Hungarian



Our publisher Toplitz Production has translated the basic version of the game into Hungarian. So now players from Hungary can get to know our game ːcannonshotː

Unfortunately, the publisher did not translate the expansion Football Stars, and we do not have the ability to do so. Therefore, if any of the players want to help us with the translation of Football Stars, write to me at kos @ creoteam. com

Those who help us with translation will receive the following:
- your name in the game's credits
