Footstar--be your own player!

Footstar--be your own player!

I just started playing this game, but there's hardly any Kiwis there yet.

http://www3.footstar.org - The best football manager ever, you can be manager of your own player, play in a friends team with your real-life friends, and now there is a big chance in New Zeland. We need another domestic team (perhaps someone wants to create the Phoenix...) But the more important thing is that the National team U-18 is looking for new players, beginners, to create a New Zeland U-18 team and win the World Cup in next season.
Check it out!!!! Try now!!

Basically this game is about being a player, rather than traditional management games where you manage the whole team. Set your training up, interact with other players, find a team and play matches. Your goal is to become the best in the world. On the way you can play for a club team anywhere in the world, and if you're good enough, you can represent New Zealand.

The game is free, but people who buy a paid membership also have the option of managing teams. At the moment we really need more paying members from New Zealand, so that we can have more human-controlled club teams and therefore a stronger domestic competition. It would also be nice to have New Zealand coaches for our National teams, as they are mostly coached by foreigners at this time.

I might actually become a paying member and create a Wellington Phoenix team myself shortly.
It's completely free to play, and heaps of fun! Why don't you come and check it out at http://www.footstar.org

seems cool enough. But im already playing:

I dont understand why they would need your address for registration...?

This game is pretty cool. I've just been selected for the New Zealand U18 Squad... And I might be getting a contract with a Swedish team.

I was in Poland playing for the NZ U18's coach but I got a transfer and immediately the coach resigned, I'm kinda avoiding it now.

Im waiting for my account to be validated

im enjoying it. Need to get into a human manged club for the better training

Footstar still needs more players guys

Couldnt really get into it aye,since not many players are on it from NZ

Hey Tegal, I signed up to TM, my teams Timaru United in the 4th division group 1. You should keep playing footstar

Anyone here still playing? I've just started a club, Nelson Suburbs. New Zealand really needs more players! Anyone who joins just needs to contact me at Nelson Suburbs, and I will accept any New Zealand player into the team.

my application is pending... do you actually play or is it RPG?

You don't actually play, you can follow the match live in a text mode but if you buy FS fan, you can watch the game in 2D. At the end of the game you get a rating out of 10.

I currently manage Palmerston North FC... looking to get rid of my bot players so I'll sign you with a special wage :P

Should land some biggish signings today too!Michael2008-10-21 14:20:45

Good to see New Zealand doing better. Dissapointed we didn't qualify for the World Cup though.

my application is pending but im keen to play for someone!!

Trophy Manager is really confusing anyone wanna play me in a friendly??

I don't play Trophy Manager, didn't excite me.

Na lol, Timothy Norrie.Could you give me a game for the National team against Japan in the WC Qualifiers?

Oh Tim :) Mean...

I actually had you down as "Possible Youth Talent" to come into the squad, the only problem being is I don't want people to think I'm putting you there cause your in my club team. :l

True, just put me in with some other young players aswell, like Nathan Issa.

We'll see

Just took over a team, Waikato Rapids FC. Hope to get rid of the bots and get some more human players soon. Especially with a game against Nelson Suburbs coming up!

Good stuff, its always great to see more human controlled teams in NZ.

i just signed up but application pending at the mo... how are the games played? or do you just get results.

Games are simulated using a match engine, so rather than picking numbers, it simulates minute-by-minute events which you can watch in progress.

timmymadden, have you chosen a player yet?

Indeed, I have already been signed to Waikato

A bit late on the thread, but good luck. I'll see you in the nt soon we hope.

The Restart for NZ not far away, we need as many people doing it.
