Community Insight:
After the new update we no longer can log into the game. Been playing this game for awhile now and its turned into crap.
When we start a match and try training it says Choose a drill! Our screen freezes up and we cant do anything. Please help.
Please hire someone with a better grasp of English and explain things better. Explain how chemistry and coaches impact the team more specifically in detail, with numbers. Show a chemistry number to see how close or far from being upgraded or downgraded. Again, we love the game.
Gets stuck on first screen and thats all it does.
We have not been able to log in to this game for months. We have sent emails to the developer and received no response. There is a loop when we try to log in that is impassable. Losing all progress on a game you have spent time on is frustrating, losing all access to a game you have spent money on is absolutely unacceptable.
We wasnt able to play the game it was freezing while loading. So we deleted the app and download the game again and was able to get back in the game and luckily did not lose anything. So Im taking back our poor rating and give a good rating. But it still has bugs.
First off, it would be nice to have a more expanded upon help section to explain the different aspects of the game then what is explained in the FAQ and little we icons. Also, either allow people to automate some of the team functions like lineups and tactics or change the league leveling system. That is early league levels allow promotion with the top 16 while gradually going down to 4(with 12 and 8 being for intermediate leagues).
Game has a lot of potential but there is no way to earn money other than wining games. Same goes for training coins. You can watch ads to get one training coin but youll go through them faster than anything. Would be nice for some more options as far as Jersey designs go. Maybe player packs. Not a fan of having to pay for legendary players that are 45 dollars. We want to love this game but there are too many downsides.
Ive played this game from Day 1 and loved it. We never had a problem with it. We have it set to log us in via Facebook. Yesterday for the first time it asked us if we wanted to log in via Facebook. We pressed Yes and then our phone asked if we wanted to use the Facebook app. Again we said Yes. The app just loops this process over and over. We deleted the app and reinstalled. Didnt work. We restarted our phone. Didnt work. Hopefully this is resolved because during the course of the day you do have to do important things for your team which are time sensitive. As for the game play, it is a great game. A lot of really cool things which other manager games dont have.
Hello creator of BIG 6, This is a awesome game. We have playing it for like a week and a half. We felt like this game was special. But it was missing thing. Please let all players actually play in the matches as the players you bought. Thank you and have a good day.
Its the best hockey game ever you can even be friends get the game/app now.
The look and ease of playing this game is pretty good. What we find very interesting since the latest updates is if a team has paid players from the collection are by far more valuable than players that were developed and have an actual higher ranking. For example of bought player has a ranking of 100 across the lineup and they are all part of the collection. The overall team is s lets say that same 100. You bring in a developmental team with no to very minimum paid players that has a ranking of 110 or 115 with the exact same strategies during an actual game. The team with the lower ranking that has collection players will win 99% of the time. Once a user realizes there is no actual insensitive to develop players since paid collection players are the only ones that matter then this game becomes boring and loosing its addictive qualities. Also the cost of time to develop a player to a level that still losses to a paid collection team is not worth it. Would be nice to play knowing if we improve this player or that player that we could have a real chance at winning against a team with collection players that has a much lower ranking than our team.
We think this is a good game. The setup for the seasons is great honestly and the equal tournaments is a nice touch but the game just needs, more. Theres no real way to earn money outside of home games every so often. You cant upgrade or get better players without money. We honestly like the game but without updates soon we feel we might have to leave it.
This game is pretty amazing. For all of us armchair coaches and managers this gives you the ability to control all aspects of your team.
Game is good and addicting. We wish you could design both home AND away jerseys. Also if there were more goal scenes and hit scenes would be a sweet addition. Gets pretty repetitive. Just saying. Other than that Im liking it.
We thought we would be a training our team to be the best not a game we can tap one or two buttons every 2 hours.
This game is a game where you are the manager of a hockey team, that sounds original right? But no. World Hockey Manager is the exact same game, yet it has been around for a year and a half. Also, this game easily loses connection and our game stops almost immediately.
