I'm in the same boat as you. Really disappointing to learn that you have to not only buy the cards, but then buy the "focus." Really feels like a nickle and dime rip off.

It has. I also had most of them unlocked pre losing my data, so gotta do all this again. But venues are taking priority now lol.

It’s worked that way since release IIRC. Yeah the price annoying especially w some of the crazy things I did w money like faction changes nonstop and not knowing that to get that extra manager push I needed to purchase it. I just figured it was enough to connect wrestler with w the manager. So essentially it costs 200,000 to bye mimosa then a 100 k per each wrestler or team. I had no idea just can’t believe I played this long. Crazy!!!! |

I've only ever used it once (on an old run of the game) but I knew the cost. The 100,000 is much better than a token but for most managers it's only a small boost. There's a couple though where it's really nice.

No Lie I been playing like 3 years. Have every card and all along I thought for instance exotic Rick was automatically getting the extra plus bonus for thinker. Your telling me that has to be purchased?? Yes. In fact, the game itself told everyone this 3+ years ago. We're sorry that you missed this or misunderstood the feature. It is good to hear you enjoyed your time playing anyway under the assumption that the additional bonuses were already applied. As a reminder, spending your freely acquired currency in order to optionally improve the stats of cards in your collection (which then help to earn even more freely acquired currency) is quite literally the foundation of the game. It works that way throughout every aspect. So considering that much, it shouldn't come as that much of a shock that bonus stats have a cost...unless you're brand new to the game. Which you're not, of course. I'm in the same boat as you. Really disappointing to learn that you have to not only buy the cards, but then buy the "focus." Really feels like a nickle and dime rip off. We're sorry again that we weren't able to properly educate everyone on the functionality of Manager Focus as it's evident that several "never knew" how it worked, but publicly accusing us of ripping off players because you misunderstood how a completely optional feature works is an interesting stance. Why play a game and contribute to it's community if the developers are nickel and diming people for 3+ years? This kind of post had a few members of the team wanting to boot you from these boards. There's other outlets to crap on us if you're so inclined, but we won't tolerate any more of that kind of negativity on this forum. Consider it a warning.
___
Seems we need to list these reminders out for those that maybe under some kind of false pretenses about our completely free-to-play game, so here goes: The Manager cards cost Game Cash because they provide bonuses for any cards of equal Fan Status. They are OPTIONAL to buy.
The Manager Focus costs Game Cash because they provide additional bonuses for specific Wrestler cards. They are OPTIONAL to unlock.
Game Cash (and Tokens for that matter) do not cost you any actual money. Both are literally given to you for free for simply tapping your screen.

Yes I do not doubt the game told us players this very clearly. I just saw that ya can click the wrestler on the manager card. Please do not remove me from pro boards chat again. I previously argued cutthroat should get Olympus bonus rather than or along with Oakland bc raiders played on that field and then all of a sudden i was removed from pro boards for a year.
This is ok I am NOT complaining. Actually it does explain some very odd Pierre the enormous w the thinker upset losses as well as sumo sans horrific record on a past play through.

While I got you, and maybe only I have noticed this but several have brought this up- in a triple threat match the wrestler w the lowest push always wins. No exceptions, outside of using obviously the screwjob level cards or using push cards to make the wrestler w lowest push have even push or better n thus he loses. Would adding pushes to each wrestler fix this possible glitch.
No offense just big fan have spent I estimate 500 dollars over my 3 years not that that is a ton but is there a way I could play to fix this?

You were removed at that time for being much more egregiously negative all over these message boards (and not for the reason you're claiming here). You were also warned privately before your suspension and instead of heeding the warning, continued to negatively attack and thus were suspended. Now you're back, confused and negative again.  You were not even threatened with a suspension in this thread, and there are no suspensions forthcoming from this thread, but we always have a keen eye on people who are generally spread negativity and/or misinformation on this forum. |

Just misinformation about how the game works. What is true is that the 1v1v1 simulation formula does indeed level the playing field of the three wrestlers involved and thus more often than not results in a lower PUSH wrestler "stealing" the victory, but this was intentionally designed. It's not a "glitch" to "fix." We adjusted the 1v1v1 formula a bit for MMW GM (so that PUSH favorites have better likelihood of overcoming these odds), so we're definitely open to adjusting 8MW similarly based on your feedback. We've seen plenty of "how come the lower guys win so much in Triple Threat matches?" commentary, just not much complaining about it or requesting it worked differently. But again, if there's a sentiment that this should change, we're down. You might notice we're always shaping the game towards what most players want. |

Hmmm, that's interesting. Will change how I book a bit but I think it's actually a good thing.

Mr. Fantasy...would you possibly allowing the game to reward a "free focus" given certain conditions? Perhaps after completing a full decade...or playing a full run from (80-99)...although to be fair once you're pretty far into the game doing that should give you enough credits per year to do that...so maybe I just answered my own question  |

We've always considered Manager Focus a highly optional feature mostly intended for end-game players (those with a lot of currency saved up and everything else already collected). |

While we're here, do you think it'd be possible to get managers being able to appear multiple times per card? That would be a very nice addition to using the manager focus IMO (if you limit it to those that is. So e.g. If you have focus unlocked with Thinker for Flawless and Rick, he could manage both in separate matches, but Mr Bonsai (face) could only appear once).
Appreciate this may be tricky to code of course!
