XP points based on minutes played

Most of us, including me, have this weird habit of substituting the captain after 15 minutes just to get the bonus. The rules are basically forcing us to do that, but probably very few people like it, as it is unrealistic.

I think the bonus should be revised as soon as possible. That said, I suggest to change the criterium used to award XP.

Playing at least 60 minutes = full XP amount for the competition

Playing at least 15 minutes but less than 60 = half XP amount

That way, if the captain plays 15 minutes, you still get the bonus but his XP grows slowly and the manager has to make decisions

I'm not getting on your suggestion: is it for the experience gained for the match, to depend on the total played time, or is it for the captain bonus?

If you have a captain that gives you the bonus, this sugestion has little to no effect, as the player has already gained experience. On the other hand, if it's to make the experience gains to depend on how much has been played, then I agree.

It is for the experience given for the match.

It won't affect the captain bonus, but now when the captain plays just the first 15 minutes, he gains full experience as if he was playing the whole match.

If he was receiving half the experience, his XP would grow less and its XP advantage towards the other player would become lower. In the long run, it would affect the leadership of the "just-first-15-minutes" captains, eventually leading him to be no longer the best captain of the team. Managers would then have to decide if losing some XP points or giving more game minutes to the captain

i like it and simple to do

excellent idea - long run such captains got nerf

simply remove the captain bonus ,,nothing to do irl

yes, but after we will lose experience for the youth players.....if they don't play more than 60"

the captain will play always well even if he plays 90 min,doesnt change much even if he has decent stats,the experience helps him more,this change is not so good, if we lose something on other part, or you delete this 5% from captain or you come with other solution...

Well, the youths who play at least 60 minutes will earn twice the XP of those who play just 15 minutes, I wouldn't see it as a negative thing. It's more realistic indeed.

And if nicmo thinks that the penalty would last too much, he can always lower a bit the XP thresholds for the penalty

This change would be great and fair with curent traints on players, the fresh one can recoup the gap to the older existing ones.

Nice suggestion in this case. It will complicate the life of inexperienced players, who would need more games to get full xp, though, but still a nice idea: more real.

For an inexperienced player, this will implicate that he would need to play up to 40 games, instead of the current up to 20 games in order to have he's full potential unlocked.

The solution to fix this would be to reduce the minimum experience to not have the penalties, with 75% of what we have now. Or to reduce those penalties a bit, for example, 25 to 15% penalty, and 10 to 8%, or even to make more steps of penalties, but it complicates things too much.
