  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players report that the game's optimization is lacking, as it requires recovery time between matches to maintain performance.

    • “They need recovery between matches or performance suffers badly.”
    • “The game won't accept this because it loads your bottom division team with concerns, which affects performance. Since it's a bottom division team, you generate no income to replace them.”
