Update January

The January update brings new features:

1. Achievements
There is a new screen showing your achivements.

Most achievements come as silver/gold/platinum. For example to get the Junior Cup medal in silver, you have to win one Junior Cup, for Gold 50 and for Platinum 1000.
There are 24 achievements. Most are calculated retrospectively, so if you already won a Junior Cup in the past, you automatically get the silver JC medal. Unfortunatelly this is not possible for some achievements (marked with a *), which will be counted starting with the update, but for ALL teams, not only the Android users.
Achievements of other teams will be visible on the other team screen.
Furthermore, we are taking the opportunity and correct the championship stars calculation. Note that the backwards calculation of league related achievements is delayed. Please be patient until you see all your achievements.

2. Player specialists will be visible from strength 40, not 50. Applies to ios and winphone also.

3. The regular Cups will be split in strength ranges of ten as follows: Amateur Cup A/B/C (max 50/60/70), Kio Cup A/B (max 80/90), Junior Cup A/B (max 30/40). Applies to all platforms.

4. New coach actions: „Fortify“ gives your defenders a bonus but increases their exhaustion. Being a „small“ version of „overstrain“, this costs only 1 CAP. The other action is „take it easy“, giving players -10 and low exhaustion. Both actions require certain coach XP.

5. New challenges: „Score at least 5 goals in each of 10 matches“ (reward 3 CAP) and „Win 5 away matches in a row“ (reward 2 rookie talent points). This is for all users.

6. New promo campaign with the new version of our Fantasy Hotel Manager game „Santa Daemonica“.

7. Player strength will be cut to tournament max BEFORE applying their health. This means that you cannot play for example all AC matches with Q70 if you have somehow setup 11 Q90 players. After the first match, the exhaustion of 2 will apply and make the players Q69 (70*98%), and Q67 in the third. This also means you cannot „play down“ your team anymore, register for a lower Q cup and then play with that cup’s maximum strength.

Why is my team’s strength reduced when joining a cup?

Example: You have a Q90 team, some players have Q above 90 and some below. You join a KiO Cup. Now, all players with strength above 90 are limited to 90. Together with your players below 90, your average team Q is reduced below 90.

If you want to play exactly with the Q maximum in a cup (at least the first round before exhaustion comes in), all of your players would have to have exactly strength equal to that cup’s maximum.

We did this change because of many user complaints about this and other tricks which made especially the Amateur Cup quite boring. Now it’s harder to play with a cup’s maximum strength, making those cups more interesting.

As you see we bring to life many proposals from the community. We are sure  you like the new update.

Africa Cup gestartet / Africa Cup started

Der KIO Africa Cup ist gestartet und gibt Euch die Chance, kostenlos an einen Top-Spieler zu kommen.

Dafür braucht Ihr allerdings neben einer guten Mannschaft (max. Q80) und taktischem Geschick auch Glück. Denn der Sieger erhält zwar einen afrikanischen Nachwuchsspieler, jedoch hat dieser eine zufällige Endstärke. Das heißt, ob ihr nachher einen Q41- oder Q99-Spieler erhaltet, ist dem Zufall überlassen.

Dafür starten die Turniere alle 10 Minuten und legen los sobald sie voll sind. Umso öfter man also einen Africa Cup gewinnt, umso besser ist die Chance auf einen echten Top-Spieler.

Bis zum 28. Januar – also ungefähr für die Dauer der Vorrunde des echten Afrika Cups – läuft unsere Sonderaktion.

Wir wünschen Euch viel Spaß und vor allem sportlichen Erfolg 🙂

Euer KIO-Team

ENGLISH:

The KIO Africa Cup has started and gives you the chance to come to a free top player.

For this you do need besides a good team (max Q80) and tactical skill – a bit of luck. Because the winner will get an African rookie player, but he will have a random final strenght. (max. quality from Q41 up to Q99).

Therefore the tournaments start every 10 minutes and get started as soon as they are full. The more often you have won a Africa Cup, the better the chance of a real top player.

Until 28 January – about the duration of the preliminary round of the real Africa Cup – is our special promotion.

We wish you much fun and especially success 🙂

Amateur Cup A / B

Wie Euch vielleicht schon aufgefallen ist, haben wir den Amateur Cup vorrübergehend in zwei Turniere aufgesplittet. Amateur Cup A (bis Stärke 70) und B (bis Stärke 55).

Beide Turniere haben die gleichen Prestige- und Preisgeld-Werte.

Vorrübergehend deshalb, weil es abhängig vom Feedback der KIO-Spieler ist, ob wir es später möglicherweise permanent so machen oder halt nicht.

Wir sind gespannt auf Eure Meinung!

(ps. Durch die Aufsplittung erscheint im Turnierscreen der Ball als Symbol für das Turnier. Der Gewinner erhält jedoch den richtigen Pokal in seiner Sammlung.)

ENGLISH:

We’ve split the Amateur Cup temporarily in two tournaments. Amateur Cup A (up to 70) and B (up to 55).

Both tournaments have the same prestige and prize money levels. Splitting the tournaments means for the tournamentscreen, that the ball appears as a symbol for each. The winner will have the right trophy in his collection.

We made it temporarily because it depends on the feedback from the KIO players, whether it might be permanently or just not.

We look forward to your opinion!

Christmas Special

Like every year, there is a christmas special. It’s a special challenge you only get from december 23rd: Play 5x against buddies to receive a present. Also, you can pass presents to buddies with lower prestige on your buddy list (Android only). You get 10 prestige whenever you do that!

By the way, the LUDETIS team also has christmas holidays, so only limited support is available.

We wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year!
