100 Level player, attributes not going up after match

[SMiThaYe]

Using Football Stars DLC.

Seems odd that after a match, where players that were already level 100, don't look to improve their attributes - meaning I can't improve other weaker attributes and this player is only 24 years old and was bought during the transfer window.

Other players below 100 level up as normal after a match.

Wondering if this intended as I kind of hoped I could keep training him?

Level 100 is the cap, its the way the game works.

Yeah I know the level cap is 100, the problem being is that training isn't much good going forwards to improving the player as none of the attributes will go up. It's a good job this particular player had decent average stats otherwise I'm stuck with it.

He's 24 years old and already the best he can be, yet actual outfield footballers don't reach their career peak til 4 years later so there should be plenty of time to improve other aspects of their game - hence why the other higher level players I put points into gaining additional fame as that will pay off better in trying to improve the club.

Probabaly its a matter of ballance, I asked also long time ago for allowing players to continue to grow at a smaller pace, but devs preffered not to take this step.

Your forward is still able to improve his Cannon Shot skill to level 3, learn a second skill and improve the potential of both skills.

And improve his stamina and a lot of player doesnt improve after 24 years.

I concur, been playing since 2015 and the pacing is spot on and KoS has done wonders with the constant updates and hope to see more. Not to disregard what I said; you could say it's a nit pick about the lack of progression towards the end of their development. Probably more a fault of the transfer system how I was able to pick up such a good player, but hey they wanted the cash!

Really there shouldn't be a limit, or perhaps as you say include a steeper multiplier after level 100. If there were an option, even on Easy mode, I'd be interested to try it. Played the game enough times over to mess about and try something different.

Good tip! I intended to go for that next as the Premiere League has a lot of difficult sides, well playing in Europe is tougher still. Partly why I needed to push my player stats further than you are able to currently as it's very expensive to keep quality youth players for alternative tactics.

Reason I'm thinking more about the short term is the rewards are bigger (canon shot without reduced training time talent eats up the few times he gets to specialise. Til I max out the club facilities then I'm not too fussed with Glory as I've yet use that for transfers and rely mostly on the youth system.

Another good tip which I sometimes go for. However, this player is better with stamina compared to my other outfields players plus I never tire them out when playing. Now I'm in European competitions I'm now starting to see the need for a stamina refresh.

Appreciate the feedback, been useful to read your thoughts on this.

We wanted to have some measure which differential a good footballer from the bad one. It's easy to see that the 100th level is a good one and 50 is average.

Therefore, we aren't going to allow to have higher levels.

Usually, it's hard for the player to level his footballer to 100th level. But it's possible to buy him from the opponents. Also, there are different modes like Mogul mode or Easy mode or the possibility to Edit every team which give a lot of possibilities to get 100th level, therefore, we can make leveling to that level to be very hard and long, but there are always the ways to get such footballers.

If we would want realism on this issue there should be no cap, with the peak of a player career at 31 years old and after that the stats should decline untill his retirement. But i understand that the game main focus is keeping things simple and i apreciate that.
