I like how you have the option to bribe the goaile of the next team you face before you even know who they are. That's 100% thug life.

it would be better with more management and i think it would be awesome to be able to create your own formations 4.5/5

Also you should be able to quickly see which player was who.
One of my players seemed to have the stats of a tank, but I had no idea of where he was placed on the field.

@CrafterFTW: You can reset the controls to anything you like. Look under "Options" > "Player 1 Controls". I just wish that the game were programmed to accept a key event as a top priority. I just tried again on a clean boot, and I still have my ball carrier standing still when I'm pressing a directional key, lack of movement when I give a pass or throw order, and a throwing direction that is at a right angle to the player's direction (display out of synch).

First season, save money from wins, maybe invest in boots upgrade (training is meh right now, you will probably trade away most of your players). At the end of the season, buy a couple better players, especially FASTER players. It is all about speed. There is a reason speed training and boots upgrades are the most expensive. 5 Star speed demon players make it easy to win. Then probably tackling. Passing is dangerous, and even the toughest player gets knocked around. Get fast and run it in. Boots and helmets to make you fast and get your guys up quicker when they get hit.

Back in 1994:
Time traveller: "Hey, watcha playing on the Mega Drive? Speedball 2? I come from the future and 20 years from now you will be playing a game exactly like this on a PC and you will love it!"
Young Rymdolov: "Ha, there will be much more advanced games by then! And I will be more mature!"

There should be a way to keep track of stats (ie, Jack Renegade has scored 15 goals this season). Maybe something for Crunchball 4000?

The badges are a bit iffy. The 3 lower ones I got in the 4th division so then spent ages trying to get the last. However, this is probably the best sports game out there. Multiplayer would be excellent, as would a proper transfer market, cup games, maybe more tactical options? Epic, 5 star as it is, but could be even more.

Great game. Seems like all those other sport games, but then there is so much strategy involved, and other minuscule details which clearly mark this game. there are a couple of technicalities, such as the comment made by rider1982. clearly, this is a 5/5 game :) great work

Anyone else have this problem?:
The enemy runs towards my goal with the ball, so I'm holding down to chase after them. They shoot, my goalie catches it, and I'm instantly switched to him, run into my goal since I'm holding down, and score for the other team.

if you don't like the transfers offered to you in between seasons, DON'T carry on with the matches, go back to main menu and continue career to refresh all the transfers

For those of you going for a hard badge in the game, DON'T upgrade your stats of the players after you finish every round. Instead, wait until the end of the division and buy 5 star transfers. You can get more than one after every division, after you buy one press continue, but instead of starting a game go back to menu, then continue career. It will give you a list of completely different transfers that you can buy. Keep doing this until you are satisfied with your players. Hope this helped :D

For the beginning, it would be nice to know how many games per season so I can save money for trading! Until you figure it out, it is hard to follow because it is never explained.

I could imagine one of the press conferences after this game-"Well,I saw a hole in they're defense on my radar and I threw the ball in."
