Dear
managers!
Today’s
article circles around some insights concerning the near future of goalunited
PRO, as wished by many of you.
Some words
ahead regarding announcements: For us it is always kind of difficult to
announce new features too early, because often it happens, that we are forced
to change details or the date could not be kept. This leads to frustration on
all sides. So, don´t take long term announcements concerning software as
granted ;-)
We are
planning new features in a rough schedule about one year in advance, and we
have a more detailed plan for six months. The exact release dates are scheduled
at some point while production, when we are sure that we can actually do it in
time. Software development is highly complex and often hard to predict,
especially because we want to react on current developments, feedback, and
bugs.
But what is
coming up within the next months:
We are currently
working on the 1 on 1 Feature. This
is based on the United 1 on 1 system known from goalunited LEGENDS but it will
be changed in some points and is planned to have a higher focus in PRO. You can
always start a 1 on 1 match by challenging another manager or by automatic
opponent search. The 1 on 1 matches will
take place in the live-ticker with 6x-speed. For each win you will get ladder
points, by which you can compare and compete in a ranking. Additionally you get
a random reward for each win, for instance a card, some STARS, money or a
little bonus for a player. Also there will be a 1 on 1 cup with new trophies, which
will differ totally from the LEGENDS cup-system.
Also new: 1
on 1 tickets. You will get them on a daily basis and you can use them as an
alternative to STARS to initiate a 1 on 1.
We won´t
launch the 1 on 1 system containing all features from the start, but it will be
completed step by step. The reason is, that we want to share new playable
features as soon as possible with you.
Simultaneously
we are working on the International
Masters Screen, so the first Masters can start in the 2nd season
as scheduled. This screen will look and feel almost the same like in LEGENDS.
The National Cup Screen, who is very
similar, will follow a bit later.
The goalwall
from LEGENDS will not appear in PRO in that way. But we are preparing something
new: a Fortune Booth with great new
winning opportunities.
Other
features like Merchandising and Achievements are not forgotten, they
will be done later, which also goes for Career,
Mail, Statistics, and Rankings.
In the next
article we will tell you more about the upcoming 1 on 1 system.
