-August 2021: Weekend events scheduleAugust 6 - August 9: Transfer Madness
August 13 - August 16: Training Madness

August 27 - August 30: Golden LegendsIMPORTANT
Note 1: This schedule is subject to change
Note 2: We may randomly add flash (4h and 24h) events in the middle of the week -
Kudos to the OSM Staff for the rigorous work you all do. I know myself and other managers give critique, some constructive, others destructive.
But praise has to go to you guys for trying your best to keep the game up and running. Well done!!

How would you like to review the events that took place in July?
-
Weekend event : Transfer Madness || Starts: July 2, 10AM CEST | Ends: July 5, 9AM CEST
-
Temporary event: Top Facilities || Starts: July 7, 7PM CEST | Ends: July 7, 11PM CEST
During this event there are shorter timers for Training and Stadium! This means that it will take much less time to train players and to expand a part of your Stadium.
Comment - 1 : Normally, this event would only have stadium upgrades, but this time training has been added.
- Weekend event : Training Madness || Starts: July 9, 10AM CEST | Ends: July 12, 9AM CEST
Comment - 2 : Another specially prepared training event.
- Temporary event: Superfast Trainer || Starts: July 14, 7PM CEST | Ends: July 14, 11PM CEST
We've temporarily hired new trainers for Wednesday between 19:00 and 23:00 CEST. Your players are highly motivated! Due to this motivation, they complete a training within two hours!
Comment - 3 : Hahaha. The training event is also hidden inside an event.
-
Weekend event : Intense Friendlies || Starts: July 16, 10am CEST | Ends: July 19, 9am CEST
-
Temporary event: Super Staff || Starts: July 21, 7PM CEST | Ends: July 21, 11PM CEST
During this event, your entire staff will do their work faster than usual. This includes your Scout, Trainers, Doctor, Lawyer and Data Analyst.
Comment - 4 : I'm having trouble counting. How many training events was this?
- Weekend event : Extreme Progression || Starts: July 23, 10am CEST | Ends: July 26, 9am CEST
This weekend it's time to really make your players sweat on the training ground. They will get extreme progression with every Training & Friendly!
Comment - 5 : I'm tired of commenting.
-
Special temporary event: Golden Legends x Charity event : Starts: July 27, 9am CEST | Ends: July 29, 9am CEST
-
Weekend event : Extreme Training || Starts: July 30, 10am CEST | Ends: August 2, 9am CEST
It's time to get your players to the training ground! Your players will train faster and get extra training progression at training!
Comment - 6 : Tragicomic. There were 6 training events in July.
Comment - Final : It's really unbelievable. Realizing the circulation of the training event in crew battles or regular leagues, GB started to focus on this event alone. I have a suggestion for you. Let's just say "training event" instead of "weekend event" now?
It is not possible to fool users by stating that the use of coins in battles will be closed after months. We are waiting for the update that you said will happen on August 11, but more importantly; How will the settings be after 4 months? We will follow this.
Besides, what will the unannounced August events be like? Will there be a rush of training events again or will you change your mind after my words?
Perhaps you will edit part of my post yourself. Haha, I hope you don't threaten me to lock my account too.
You will not have success by closing the "Crew Battle Ranking - Discussion, comments..." thread and not reopening it. This is a wrong communication strategy. The fact that that topic is closed does not mean that the reactions are over. We want to see that you care about user satisfaction as much as money.
Actually, I wasn't going to type them because I'm tired of repeating the same things. But someone has to type them!

Hi Mehmet,Firstly, thanks for sharing your comments about the upcoming Events with us! And thanks for sharing your frustrations.
We use a lot of Training Events because it's a very popular feature and a lot of managers enjoy these Events.
I very much understand your concern about rotating too many training Events because we all enjoy a little bit of variation.
We try our best to variate with Events. Do you have any ideas for new Events we might try?
I'm also glad to hear you are excited about the upcoming Battle change on August 11, I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks in advance!

@harry-poon welcome back mate. Maybe if you were here before few months you would listen to us and communicate with us much more than other staff members did. Instead the community was ignored and now official battles are dying.

@harry-poon Will there be a weekday promotion tomorrow? If it's a stadium promotion: please announce this today (or change it to a training event), because a stadium promotion needs to be announced more than 18 hours before it starts. Stadium timers take 18 hours to complete and many users start these timers early in the morning.

I can't believe what I'm hearing. A game admin wrote a response text that neither bullied nor threatened to close our account. Maybe there is someone among us who should take a part in this.
Anyway, thank you for your kind reply. First of all, of course I'm excited for the update coming on August 11 because we've been wanting it for months. The real question is: The settings that will change every 4 months how will change after 4 months. Again, someone will make changes according to his head. We'll see that in December.
I would like to make suggestions about the events, but since I know very well that this will not be taken into account, I do not want to tire myself about it.

@koningco Yes there is, sorry for the late reply. You can expect us to communicate Events on the forum, we had a minor hickup yesterday, that's why we didn't post it. Tonight is the Extraordinary Scout Event.

@taul10 Thanks mate! The rest of the staff is going out of their way to listen to all managers and more specifically the hardcore ones on the forums. It's just we can't process all the feedback into bite-sized OSM features.
But I agree we at Gamebasics can do better in communicating those kinds of decisions better and we are always trying to improve that. So same goes here: if you have any ideas how, please let us know.
-
@keitomurasaki Nice, thanks! The Event is running tonight so that's a first step.
We feel it might be a lot for a weekend Event since not all managers can take part since the Scout has a Boss Coin barrier. -

@mehmetcetintd As long as we'll treat each other with respect, we should be fine.
Battle settings will keep rotating in the future. We have recently collected a lot of feedback about Battles from the community and decided to translate it into an update. But the community, although a very important one, isn't the only group of managers. Earlier, we collected from all managers that played Battles and they preferred some settings on. That's why we will keep rotating depending on feedback and Battle data. Let's see how it goes from August 11 on, if it's a huge success we might keep it on longer.
That's too bad but your decision of course. If you want, there's always room for ideas. I can't promise they will be reality but I can promise we'll take them seriously and we'll give feedback on them.
-
So looks like 11 August its only a bait for some managers who are willing to start playing again battles with battle tools equivalent for everyone? Mehmet was right.
@jeffro-davies you should rethink again if you want to play again battles because looks like in the future the odds are very high about turning on coins as compensation or finishing timers.
Personally Ive started spending little bit more than used to spent (not like arabs ofcourse who boost their players up to 200 level and their teams in 2 billion squad value) and Im sorry for that but Im getting boring from this battles which haven't change anything for good since were introduced to this game. Im really thinking to quit too.

@harry-poon maybe if the games managers
would respond to messages and don’t delete what he doesn’t like would be a sign of respect mate.Glad you’re trying though Harry, more than most staff do replying to the community

We will play for 4 months, if any pay to win options come back on we will stop again. My crew can do what they like but if it happens again il never play them again Jet mate.
As for over spending I wouldn’t give into it. Rather not play, spend enough with everything off. It’s just pure greed with BC compensation
, timers or Training camps.Think training camps will be next, having the option to play 6 training camps in 10 games will come in 4 months I’d guess.

@jetont I'm sorry to hear that.
But where did you get the idea that this was somehow 'bait'? We got the input of the community, changed the game accordingly and see if enough managers enjoy the new setup. If not, we'll try to improve it, if it's a success we'll keep it of course. I think that makes sense?

@jeffro-davies I hope you can enjoy the August change and a lot more managers will. If so, we'll definitely consider keeping the settings this way.
About Training Camps, there are zero plans to increase the number. No worries!

@harry-poon good to hear that. Because battles with traning camps are pointless...

Even when the use of coins was open, we continued to fight with our crew, but we were very tired. If coins are reopened in December, we'll stop fighting altogether and maybe have to do things with a higher dose. I hope GB does not make such a change. To be even rude, I hope you don't make such a mistake.

@mehmetcetintd I like the fighting spirit! What does a 'higher dose' mean?

Frankly, I haven't thought about it, and I don't want to feel the need to think about it.
By the way, if you don't want users to be hostile to GB, you should communicate with users. Because before you, the forum was in complete chaos.
