As posted in our Discord Announcements channel, the latest update to SoccerRatings.org is live! This update introduces the base ratings that will form the foundation for the upcoming Season 3, giving managers an immediate look at the landscape for the new campaign.

Base Ratings for Season 3 Now Active

The website has been refreshed with the latest base ratings. To ensure a stable environment for all managers to scout and plan their strategies, we have paused further updates to the SoccerRatings site until Season 3 officially launches.

While the data is now live, please note that a small number of players who moved clubs during our brief maintenance window may not be perfectly reflected yet. We are monitoring the data closely; while we don’t anticipate further changes, we remain ready to perform emergency updates should any critical issues be identified.

New Players Added

Following an incredible collaborative effort with our community, we have successfully added 2,015 new players to the Soccerverse ecosystem!

Your help in identifying and resolving duplicates was vital in expanding the database to this level. While we aimed to include even more, technical limitations with our third-party data provider (API-Football) meant we couldn't add every requested player or process all retirements in this specific release.

Looking Ahead: February Fixes

We remain committed to providing the most accurate football data possible. We have scheduled a dedicated technical window in February to address current API challenges. During this time, we will work to rectify any missing player data and update retirement statuses to ensure the database is as robust as possible.

What’s Next?

The updates are ready for you right now. Head over to SoccerRatings.org to study the new base ratings and scout the 2,000+ new additions.

Season 2 Rating Preview & Parameter Updates

The projected player ratings as announced yesterday that would be used in Season 2 is now live.

🔍 What you’ll see
* Major swings — some players soar, others plunge
* Youth / promoted players with no personal stats inherit the base rating of their senior club
* Every stat is aggregated from data from the Football-API and verifiable
* Positional upgrades — players we previously tagged with generic roles (e.g., “Midfielder”) may now move to their true spot (DMC, RM, etc.) if fresh data is available
If you spot anything super-critical (e.g., an entire club wiped out), ping us in #ratings-feedback right away.

Heads-up: from Season 2 onward, ratings will refresh daily in this app — this one-off preview puts everyone on equal footing for launch.

🔧 Gameplay parameter changes (shipping with Soccer Ratings)
* Max bid per player: 500 × current salary
* Transfer slots per club: 7 in / 7 out (up from 5)

We’ll be watching for intentional club harm; offenders lose frontend access instantly.

🚨 Snapshot, not final
It’s unlikely, but if a major issue surfaces these ratings could change before launch — there are no refunds, so keep it in mind!

Back-end integration will be live before season 2. More details and timings will be shared in the coming weeks.

Thanks for building Soccerverse with us!
