Filters on Transfer List

This has been discussed on another thread so i thought i'd create a seperate one to discuss it.

The basic idea is to add some more filters to the transfer list. At the moment we can only search for a position, age and time.

However, due to the fact that there are now over 15,000 managers finding the right player can be difficult. If each manager lists 1 players then there are 15,000 players to bid for.

Also due to the sheer number of players on the transfer list a lot of managers only bid for players who are nearing the end of their listing. This is starting to create frustration with bid hijacking. Filters are potentially an easy method to reduce this.

Therefore, I propose that it would be benficial to add further search filters such as headskills, nationality, contract remaining and wages. Further to this it would also help if you could set ratios (eg: i want a cf with shooting ability more than 90%).

Here is a couple of previous threads on the subject-

Yes I agree with you, this is the thing that we need the most at this moment!

This is one of the things that would really really improve the game, now looking for interesting players takes too much time

Don't forget filters for making and joining friendly Cups, searching for managers, teams etc.

Filters everywhere says I!

... mind you would probably need to be a SPFA only feature if it created undue load.

I agree

I´m with you guys. not filters "everywhere" though, they are not "that" fun.. :lol: .
And for thoose people who don't want any filters.. just make an advance search button so they don't have to click it if they dont want to. :wink:

Some people don't have time to search through all the players, so the answer to that would be they can manage it but haven't got the time to!

also some people have lives and can't sit at the pc all day. in real-life you would have scouts so why not have filters?

Fair :wink:

and i don't see why it's unfair as everyone would have access to it!
It would just make things slightly easier.

To take your point further why have Position or Age filters? Just have an open market that takes ages to look through?

i've never heard that one before. how can you be prejudiced against people with time! why not remove the selection settings because people have time? spfa members can set 4 teams worth so why not remove them too?

you arguement is nonsense.

That are the only filters.
And it will stay i hope. ;)
The people that doesn't got enough time needs to make more time for Sp. ;)
Sp is very good.
And this is the only managergame where you still manage you're team. ;)
And everything around it. ;)

Some People have jobs! Like Myself, luckily i can spare time during the day but plenty of people can't

To keep the user numbers up you have to develop the game in a helpful way. I don't really understand why you are against making it easier to find players?

It just isn't possible to devote your entire life to an internet game!

P1: I've got 2 jobs and a school. ;) But i can make time. ;)
P2: Develop the game is good. If the players with less time comes in A then the players that are better stay in C or D because of them. what do you want?? They will choke of SP. :?
P3: Yep I know and i'm not doing it. But if i got 5 minuts of my time i will put it for Sp. ;)
