TAZ Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 I was just wondering if there has been any discussions about the amateur comps going away. For instance, on a Friday night there are 3 amateur comps in a row and that makes for a slow and boring night for those of us that compete in those comps. Most if not all get cancelled and that would open up more space so players can actually compete in the comp. Thank you for you time and I hope this is getting looked to for future update. -TAZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PH_Carpman99 Posted May 7, 2021 Report Share Posted May 7, 2021 Yes, It has been discussed before, there was even a poll on it (in this forum) a while ago. Last I heard was they would wrap up the current release of waterways (can't remember if that was Europe or South America) and then having a look at trying to improve things like the competitions (couldn't find the actual post). I do agree having back to back amateur comps is annoying, especially when they all get cancelled because the people they are for can't afford the cost involved with attending them. Would be really nice for another update on the plans for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAZ Posted May 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 Appreciate it. A few of us have just been discussing it and I figured I'd bring it up again. Hopefully we can get an update on the plans for it down the road. I do think a "revamp" of the comps would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_3 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Bump. Since nov 8:th upon till this day, 29 amateur comps cancelled and 6 has been played. This subject has been brought up to the devs over and over for years now. I dont know why it hasnt been changed. @Dennis_FP @Killerwhale Is there any specific reason to why this isnt changed?

waiora Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Its such a bloody waste. Get online on a Saturday morning and there is 4 amateur comps in a row, all going to be canceled. If you devs insist on having them run them ALONG SIDE competitions for the regular players. Why is designing your game around the 1% of players still a thing. If you can even call it design, because they are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo far from being useful to new players its a joke. Most new players cant afford the tackle or travel costs associated with half these comps anyway. No one is doing them, and even if you wanted to do them you play like 2 days and you have out leveled these competitions already. So at best a new player might do a handful of these if any. And here we are with this trash filling like 30% of available competitions daily. Edited April 30, 2022 by waiora 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTF-Smitty Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 "Amateur" comp tab? In between "Competitions" tab and "Custom Competitions" tab. Amateurs get more, and we get more. Win, win?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
