Sorry about these three posts in one go. We just completely forgot publishing our release notes here.
There’s been an issue with the user status manager making it hard to know whether your friends or the admins actually where online. We’re hoping this is fixed now, so chatting with and challenging friends should be much easier again now!
We have restructured the the menu a bit to make room for a new feature. The Market Menu now holds the Player Market as well as the newly added Team Boost items.
In player list you will see a + icon next to players that are boosted
Once you have purchased and activated a Team boost (via Team > Inventory) you will see a new icon in their status column in the player list indicating that they are boosted, the details for the boost are also displayed in the player detail view.
Next to player average you will see by how much the individual average is increased.
Also, to make it easier it easier to select the proper lineup we have added the nationalities of players in the Lineup Tool!
These boosters are the first of many that will be added gradually over the next month, if you have any specific ones you would like to see, please do not hesitate to let us know. We can’t do this without you guys!
See you on the pitch!
Release 3.35
We’re continuing to overhaul the interface to make Kickoff Legends an even better experience this time around. We all start with a clean slate when joining the game, what is important to is to train and shape the team according to your own taste to prove that you know better. So always having players in training is crucial. With this release you now speed up an ongoing training.
Also, note the question mark on the right of the training dialog which gives you some information about where to distribute the points depending on where you want your player to excel!
The second element we have added to the league calendar to the Dashboard, this will give new users an easy way to see how important the week is and for those of you already in a league it gives you a quick overview on how your week is going in your league
See you on the pitch!
Version 3.34
You thought things weren’t changing? Boy are you wrong, it’s just so much we can barely keep up these last weeks, it’s also the reason why we have been so silent in general. Full steam ahead.
So without going into too many details here are some of the highlights:
Massive speed-up of game in general. The more users we had the more Kickoff Legends was slowing down. We have addressed this with some ninja request handling that brings a tear to our CTOs eye every time he gets to talk about it.
Early last months we followed up on that optimization bout with a new and improved wall on the Dashboard, initially combining Release Notes, Team Creation News with Matches. We have now improved this, and a lot more will be happening on the Wall over the coming releases.
Isn't it nice to have friends rivals, not only is it more fun playing against other Teams managed by real fans, but you also get a much fatter reward at the end of the game!
Well our latest release is all about you and your friends and rivals. We have, as promised, continued working on the wall on the Dashboard. When a friend signs, trains or buys a player, you''l know about it! When a friend completes and claims an objective and game- or league-achievement, you'll know about it!
Keep an eye on the competition as you work your way to the top. Always remember that we can't do this without your feedback, it's what keeps us up at night. So get in touch and let us know where you would like to see changes!
See you on the pitch!
3.32 and 3.33 online!
Two new releases for this week! Both releases focus on speed and stability of the game. Without going into details, it should feel a lot faster and a lot less error prone to bad network connectivity. Enjoy!
Version 3.30
We have been very silent in the past weeks, we have been working on our big feature, the news wall! This wall, for now, displays freshly created teams, new players signed by your team, news (like this one) and all live or recently completed matches. Many more features are coming, like commenting on each event, publishing news yourself, control what kind of information is displayed here or follow other teams. This is a major milestone for us, we hope you like it!
As usual, don't hesitate to report any bugs!
Version 3.27
Boy, do we have news for you! It’s been a long time in the making but the league pyramid is finally ready for you to climb! How does it work you ask? Simple, finish in the top 5 of your current league and off you go to the next level!
As for the bug fixes, we fixed the two leg reward system. People would always get the reward if you're playing against the same opponent more than one time.
User settings page is now saving for Steam users.
See you on the pitch!
Version 3.25 and 3.26
Releasing 3.25 and migrating to new servers last Monday was so exciting we forgot to publish the patch notes! So here is 3.25 from Monday and the new version released today, 3.26:
3.25
A first iteration of the achievement system. In your Team section you will now get a list of achievements allowing you to continue to work your way towards glory!
New web notifications! We have added browser notifications to the game for those of you using that as your primary client.
Small refresh to the design
Added Goals and played matches to your team player list
Move game to new servers.
3.26
This one goes hand in hand with the other release made last Monday. It adds 4 new achievements and a few fixes about the new achievement page. Hope you like it!
The Spender : Buy 5 free agents from the market.
The Galacticos : Buy 11 Star player in the market! The price doesn't matter, but it needs to be a star player.
No longer friends : Beat your friends 50 times. If you value your friendship, we suggest you beat different friends :)
The Mad Hatter (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond) : Five levels for this achievement, every time you score a hat trick you get closer to marvellous rewards.
We are looking closely at the stability of the game on the new servers, but if you notice something weird, please do contact us!
See you on the pitch!
Server maintenance
We are planning a new release this afternoon, but we will need to take down the servers for about 30 minutes. We are planning the maintenance at 1PM EST.
Thank you for your cooperation
Version 3.24
Happy new year to y'all! 2017. We have three new formations for you to best meet your opponents. We will be adding more as time passes. Please feel free to request new ones too! So without any further ado, here we go!
- Tutorial all displayed on dashboard instead of moving all around the site. No longer triggering a fast forward at the end of the first match. This should help new owners to better enter the game.
- Following user requests we give younew formations! 3-4-3, 4-3-2-1, 4-2-3-1. Want more? Just ask!
Bug fixes
- Challenges are now working correctly
- No longer re-assigning jersey numbers on lineup change. Special thanks to Parcselona for this one!
We are developing at breakneck speed deploying a new version at least once week, more often twice. So off course we want to make sure that our focus is at the right place. So in short, if you could take a moment to fill out this form (see link in-game) it would really be helpful to use as we move forward. To make it a little interesting the 5 best answers will receive a $25 Amazon Gift certificate. The winners will be announced on the Kickoff Legends Facebook Page.
As always, if you have an Android device, install the app! If you have a problem with the game send us a message on Facebook, Twitter or the Steam Community.
As usual, if you questions, issues or ideas, please contact us!
League Promotion
We manually promoted some of the best players in the same leagues! We hope you will enjoy playing amongst top and active players against each others. It has been done manually by the Admins, but in the long run, it will be automatic and a real League Promotion system will be in place.
A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from StudioQi!
