RIP Haxball lmao. That was the first HCL where they tried to have only 16 teams in group stage, cus they couldn't find 32 active teams. With 32 teams half the matches would've been being DEFWIN's and admins knew it.


As far as I know theres only 2 active EU left leagues FM and HaxLife, and then all the other small leagues seemed to be filled with the same players that are in FM/HaxLife teams anyway.


HTML gameplay is truly killing off competitive Haxball right in front of our eyes. Everybody thought HTML was gonna take Haxball to the next level and it would become bigger than ever before, well it lasted 1 season which was active with 30 teams, before people got sick of the gameplay and the big decline started.

P.S. HCL is starting soon.

Because regular 3v3 and 4v4 mode turned into shit.


THE NUMBERS DONT LIE.

You think those numbers are accurate? :D

Pretty sure most page views on FM are from bots ^^

Flash still exists btw - feel free to play that if you want. If it is superior like you said then I'm sure people would flock to a flash league if you make one. Otherwise I don't see the point you coming on forum every few weeks to just say same things over and over.

So its just a coincidence that at the same time the Matchday thread view numbers dramatically fall, HCL fails to find enough teams to do a normal HCL with 32 teams in groups for the first time?

Doubt it.

The overall competitive Haxball player base is dwindling.

For a random flash browser game it has been alive for a very long time anyway, even if it died right now i wouldn't really be suprised.

It is just a lot of repetition, same thing over and over. Maybe if someone invents a new map or something? :scratch:
But for now it's a matter of time.

Are you just here to complain always B4D? :D

I feel like I could join this forum in another years time and you would still be moaning how HTML sucks ^^

You are saying the exact same things as always and yet you don't do anything - what is the goal for your campaign against HTML?

the game just needs a new mode/map, the community will leave this game slowly if the same 4v4 big format will keep on happening, flash or html.

personally i would probably come back to actually playing the game if the league would change to futsal or any other new map

HCL isn't HCL since Ron took it, this is an irrelevant tournament where everyone can cheat, worse than funcups.
So it's dead a lot of time ago wtf..

I am not wondered that hcl ripped but i cant give the admins the fault ( even if the fucked up it) , There are just not enough good players and leagues anymore. There need to be smth new because you can't make a hcl with 3 leagues. You can but it would be boring to play. The last hope of international haxball ist in my opinion only nations tournament.

FM didnt change its format all these years for a reason... yes its a matter of time like vak said
but since the league is well alive with 2 divisons theres no reason to change anything
HCL isnt admin's fault, again, like vak said its a matter of time which arrived to the other leagues.. HCL cant invent leagues and teams just to fill the 32 teams mark......

theres nothing to be done for HCL but if you think soon FM and Haxlife etc will end up same as HCL well... make your own RealSoccer league or whatever
(which personally i will play tbh i'm not saying i dont want a change if its possible..)
but you all talk and expect FM admins to create this league for you LOL... not gonna happen, so stop being lazy cunts and make your own league and idea and see if it works :popcorn:

You cannot give reputation so soon. You may try again later.
