Server maintenance

Due to a database problem, the game server is currently offline. We are currently repairing it, but this might take a while.

Update:

Unfortunately we had to create a rather complicated script in order to repair defective inventory and squad data. This took us a few hours, because it really was a hard task. The script is now running, but is has to deal with 15 million rows of data, which will be finished sometime this night. This means that we can only restart the game tomorrow in the morning after we checked if everything looks right. League matches will be postponed. We are quite sure that in spite of our repair script some of you will be affected by faults like missing or extra inventory or players. Please use ONLY ingame feedback for complaints. One thing: if you are just missing 2 or 3 cap’s or if you have 3-4 extra crystal balls, please just take it as it is. We did write the script in a way that more teams will have extra items than missing items. Furthermore, when everything is on the right track again, we will start a special for compensation. Also we are going to take measures to improve stability of our systems. But number one priority is currently the restart of the game. Thank you for your patience and good night.

Final information:

The server is back online since wednesday early morning. If you miss items or players, please contact support with all details using the ingame feedback form. Please be aware that due to the huge amount of feedback it can take some hours until your inventory is fixed. If you find additional items you may keep them.

We apologize for the downtime and damage and asure you that we are planning high priority measures to prevent such things from happening again.

Get the Tablet version

It’s here!

Get the new version for Android Tablets now from Google Play!

This version runs on both tablets and phones. On phones, it looks like the previous versions (except for some improved graphics).

Note that the new version has a new color coding for player fitness: green (100%), yellow (down to 95%, energy drinks ineffective), orange (down to 80%), red (below 80%). The tablet version also shows an injury icon for players with fitness/health below 30%.

The new version includes a crashlog-submitting feature. If you experience problems, you can turn it on on the profile page (both tablet and phone versions).

Have fun with the new version!

June Update

Like each month June will bring another KiO update.
The following new features are planned:

– Additional information and warnings about upkeep*
– More interesting news in the ticker*
– recycling of relocation item*
– teams who already have a UC pass cannot enter a UC qualifier*
– for 30 days, each day new teams visit their office they get a free sponsor contract*

EDIT: Three more things that came up…

– Counter Ace will be improved (more goal shots) due to popular demand
– Sponsor Event Challenge „join organized tournaments“ will be removed due to popular demand
– Transfer of a specific player to another team and back to the previous owner will be prevented to stop the unwanted restarting of auctions.
– Coach Action „Overstrain“ changes as follows: „Players get +5 and 2-4 players loose all their health“
– Energy drinks only affect players with health higher than 30 and lower than 95

AND the most important thing:

Start of the Open Beta of the tablet version. More information will follow.

The June Update is scheduled for release on the last June weekend.

All changes with * are Android only. The other platforms will get the updates later.

New Special: Turn silver contracts into talents

We just started a new special event. Whenever you activate a silver contract (specialist or normal), and you have no challenge, you get a special challenge. This challenge wants you to win any one tournament in 24 hours, and if you do, you get 2 rookie talent points.
Of course you also get your player when you activate the contract.
This special will run until next weekend. Have fun!

KiO U21 Cup

New special! On the occasion of the UEFA U21 Euro in Israel we are starting the KiO U21 Cups this afternoon!
The clou is: This new tournament allows only players of age under 21! You cannot enter the tournament if you have any older player in your setup squad. Attention: If you setup an older player after you entered the cup, you will loose 0:3 automatically!
Winners of the finals get not only payout, but also 10 talent points. Have fun in the first real young players tournaments in the history of Kick it out!

NOTICE: Due to popular demand, players aged 21 are now also allowed.

Android Tablet Version Preview

We are now starting to preview screens of the forthcoming tablet beta version of Kick it out. Enjoy!

As you see the match information pops up in the so called „event box“ in the lower right. You can switch to any other screen using the navigation icons on the frame, for example to activate the coach or an energy drink, and the match box will stay.
