Supporters

Me again, back after a long break...

Why is it so hard to get your stadium full now? Like, not speaking from my personal position, as my stadium is a lot bigger than my rank would fill. But I thought my attendance was slightly low, so went around looking at other people's teams, viva ranks, positions etc, and it looks like it's basically impossible to fill stadiums and that there's a complete imbalance in match day attendances?

Am I wrong, and going insane?

Seems like the only way you could get close to filling a stadium is being ranked 1, which makes it so impossible to ever achieve the same.

I don't really understand how supporters are calculated anymore. Anyone else feeling the same that support balance seems to be off ?

I certainly regret having upgraded my stands as far as I have.
I struggle to sell out at 5C tickets nowadays.

Admittedly my team isn't as good as it used to be either, but I sure wasted a boat load of cash with the last 2 upgrades at least.

Got to prioritize fixing the economics of the stadium, through getting the fan algorithm right

Many years ago, I had a top 30 Vifa rank, did the league and cup double and couldn't fill a 120,000 seater stadium at 7c. I don't regret the upgrade. It did mean that I could afford to build my team based on ticket sales and prize money rather than having to make a profit on transfers every week.

With 17+ home games a season, the average ticket income would have been about 12,000,000 c. It was worth having and I enjoy having a flashy stadium more than I enjoy having a large pile of credits.

So my point is, there is little to no consistency with fan increases as you go up in rank, like this guy is winning the division above me and has barely a bigger crowd. He has 4500 fans, i have 2000 odd, but still net the same?

Maybe he's got his ticket price set too high and it's putting off supporters from attending ... ?

I guess what I'm saying is that I think there are a couple of tweeks needed in the coefficient within the code
