First update for 2025 🎉 i hope to continue this year making KOB a great football game with the most intricate economic system of the genre, yes, there is no football game out there doing this. So, here we go, the changes.

• Substitutions got more freedom, slots are no longer reserved for 2 defenders, 2 midfield, 2 attackers and 1 goalkeeper. You can bench whatever players you wish.
• Some small tweaks made to tactic and substitution panels. One, you can now remove players from the lineup by selecting their position and removing them from the selection panel.
• From now on, players in the bench are shown in the match screen, each team has a drop down button for it, this way you can better analyze possible player lineups.
• Improved logic when selecting players for position without any player selected and also on forced substitutions.
• Added match statistics to each manager profile page, unfortunately, we are missing season 1 and 2.
• Updated the API with more available data.
• Wages formula has been updated, pushing forward their exponential rise, you may experience a substantial player wages drop if you have good players.
• Global Fund no longer buys gold with surplus currencies (surplus occurs when teams from a country pay more wages than they receive from ticket sales), instead, just before player wages are paid (Monday), the surplus currencies go to each local federation fund.
  • We had good surplus for the bigger countries in the past couple weeks due to rising wages but since we are now lowering wages, next couple weeks these could be a little shy unfortunately. Nonetheless, this change should help the local prizes in the future.
• The league prizes will be changed from next season on. The amount of gold each division gets from the Federation Fund will be proportional to the average wages of that division. So, naturally A1 will get a huge chunk more and so on.
• There is now a limit on how much local currency a single club can have, the limit is calculated like so:
  • 3xClubWages, if this value is below 10.000 then the limit is 10.000.

Thank you.

WoW, nice!

Wow, indeed!

Thanks for the great update.

small question, you can have 7 subs in official matches

That's a big and nice update, indeed.

nice

love the updates

1+$

very good boss

Great updates. =D

 

nice update! big like !

Nice update about league fund, sir.

3x Club Wages?

Okay, so if my club wages are this:

Total: 115.35 NOK (1.74 Gold ) per week

Then the prize per won match is this:

need little clarification about how much local currency a single club can have,

would we get some notification when we are close to limit , if not it would nice if we can

and you wrote " 

• 3xClubWages, if this value is below 10.000 then the limit is 10.000. "

so is 10,000 lowest limit or its just a example 

using your current formula  , my limit would come around 350 USD , its very less

A manager to manage the administrative part of a company accurately needs planning. I am happy with the continuous updates that you Nicmo are doing on KOB but you have to plan them, informing the managers in advance and in detail about what you are working on and the changes you want to make in the future, giving ample time to the managers for the management changes to be made on their company. Here every time a manager complains about something you make changes instantly without explaining the parameters you are changing (salary calculation, federation surplus, maximum local currency limit for companies). This is not good. You have to Plan the changes by informing the managers a long time in advance and explaining in detail the modified parameters. I hope that you can create a very detailed user guide on KoB as soon as possible (This will provide an added value of fair management for new and old managers). Thanks

Good job nicmo.

@fighter go to your local currency exchange, it says your limit.

10k is the lowest, if your weekly wage is at 4k, it will get calculated times 3 (Limit is now 12k)

>There is now a limit on how much local currency a single club can have, the limit is calculated like so: 3xClubWages, if this value is below 10.000 then the limit is 10.000.

Why did you implement this? I really do not understand the reasoning.

First update just made me smile without controll... love this nimco 

I guess reason for limit is that exchange market got more active. Also that by selling local currency increase exchange rate gold - local currency, which helps people with high salaries to easier get money for salaries

Quick clarification about the Local Currency limit.

• 10,000 is the lowest limit possible, so if you have about 150 wages (like me), your limit is 10.000
• if your limit is 10,000, you have 9,999 currency and you play at home and receive 5 local currency, you will have 10,004

Òtimas atualizaçôes!!!

@lordaust I‘m one of the reasons 😂

@Chazuke_e: 496,223 for the love of god man! how? why? what? :D

So I bought gold for around 14.000 NOK for no particular reason other than this rule. And here I was speculating in NOK becoming the new Bitcoin...

• • 3xClubWages, if this value is below 10.000 then the limit is 10.000

I don't understand, so if I have more than 10,000 in local currencies I don't receive prizes from wins/draws and home games because I have more than 10,000 local currencies?

@lordaust invested directly in the beginning :D

Chazuke ^^

Logical and good update, thank you boss!

KOB is the only best online soccer manager game where you shouldn't waste time with other online games which doesn't pay, I hope we are here to stay God bless you with more wisdom to make KOB the best of the best!!

Substitution is not working

Ok big boss I got a question for you. I'm starting to see you are doing as all freemiums do. Pay to win. Now I've been playing for a few months as I am a major google reviewer of these game types. And the never last long as you forget you have more free players than paid. Now my team members are aging rapidly, and as I do not intend to pay. What will the state of my team be. They are retiring, so what will you do with a team that doesn't have members, what do I do, continue to lose, as I'm not spending money. So as I have said before to you on other versions. Even market glory wouldn't listen. So I give you this advice, find a way for your free players to be on balance with paid players or make the surveys global as most Americans don't qualify for most surveys. But hey good game tho. This post will be globally available on all review sites. Good day and happy holidays 

@Kirbyjr1977 - More than a review, yours seems like a threat to Nicmo. It's not good.

Just buy players …. At least now there are enough for 0,05 euros who are 26+
that are like 1 gold?! So ……

@kirbyjr1977

In own personal experience at first seaon in kob when i myself didn't thought

of investing in the game, regarding your question on how to survive with aging

players while remaining on free to play. Here's what i think you can do as i have

done:

If you check on my club season history you'll ses on first season how my club

Value went down before picking up again, everytime that happened behind 

The reason was that i dare to sell the most youngest and valuable players,

Because i believe player market always have a way of giving opportunity to

The ones that keep close watch of players been auctions for way bellow

Their value, and one of tbose player when lucky to buy, could give you big

Profit and that become your capital where you grab youth player to replace 

Aging players and also many player in the market with 0.10 euros and would

Still be better player than most of the starting players at defaults. 

You are game reviewer, if i understand the work of game tester or reviewers

I believe they look out for bug 🐛 in most cases then report back for it to get

Fix but here in kob such bug is uncommon if you must give honest reviews 

Right..? And running your club into bankrupt would mean you're simply bad at

Football management games and nothing less:)

My first few risk in player market, bought him less than 2 euros and sold him over

15 euros. My few first sale of valuable players when i was on free to play fetched me 

Well over 7 to 10 euros. With that much, a lot more younger players can be sign up

To replace the older ones. I usually did retired my old defult players with aq less than

47  to 48 even some above 50:) to make room for younger player i can train and sell

Whatever profit i could get out of it..

Especially the match engine with some balance and random events that could make 

The match go either ways, it's one of the kind I've come across out of many football 

Manager i have played, if i must say, that in particular favor free to play managers with

Nothing to lose if at end of season they didn't mount a high up the table finish :) 

Not winning, means no cash, no gold no euros. And as a reviewer,we test the validation of free to play games and test balance against paid players. Here paid players have an unfair balance. Not mad if pay to win. But that needs to be stated, not the idea of it being free to play. My question for you is are you still a free play or did you break and put money in to keep up with paid players. I've looked and all top teams are paid players. My review is this is a pay to win game as most are becoming now. This is money sink game and I will stay free 

@Kirbyjr1977 - You've discovered hot water. No one is forcing you to play. Are you sure you do reviews?!?!? You sound like HELLO KITTY 2 to the rescue.

^^

I don't think this man is getting the whole details lol

A question for you@kirbyjr1977:

>How many game have you reviewed that has real currency finances? 

>Where players on the game earn real money rewards?

Check the finance section and read the simple context that explained it

as related to trading standards and I'm just wondering if you can trade

in any know broker app without deposits and first investing before earning. 

So you got into kob with 40 to 50 euros startup team value and you said it

isn't free to play? How much did you invested to got your team 

 if this is pay to win as you called it. Plus look into many league, often

Clubs that's leading up in the league invest lesser than many team bellow them where, 

Team strength is not everything without skill. If you like the concept of the game

Just put in some investment and chill like everyone. Good luck man:) 

On the weaker countries its even very easy without invest go and stay in A1 league

but Yeah in strong countries to survive you must invest

in weak country its possible that you can play cl or cc

hey @nicmo sort by average quality and condition of players doesn't work

please fix it

thanks
