I was wondering if the constant salary drop has any effect on the player potential cap.
What i mean for ex. a player with allstar potential will have a salary cap of about 75k-85k based on the position he receives training and how good the training is done, so a player that used to have 80k will now have a salary with 11% lower than before.Taking in account that player has not reached his age cap will this mean that now he can still improve with the difference or is his salary cap going down with the constant drop in salary.
It is an important issue because if we add the last 3 seasons when the salary has gone down about 30% that would mean that now an allstar player will now have a cap of about 100k in skill compared to 3 seasons ago, witch will make allstar players more valuable than before.

My guess is that it does based on the fact that potential caps at skills learned. Since the player's salary has a lower price with their current skills, and the skills make the cap, then the capping salary would be slightly lower. Not anything majorly significant because all capping prices are merely an estimate anyway.

I would refer you to this post by former GM Josef Ka: (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr...)

Well i havn't heard anything about the potential cap changing so i'm assuming only salary has changed. There have been announcements about salary changes so you would think if there was a major change in potential caps we would be told.

This would make sense on the idea that higher potential players would become more expensive resolving an issue that has been puzzling me for quite some time that being high potential players in lower divisions witch to me makes no sense.
The issue being in the fact that a team in div.III for example would have an all-time great player with a 300k+ salary like a center and would have to settle for a week team just to be economic balanced, instead of having 5 star/allstar players that take the same amount of money.But everybody wants that national team player in his roster so i think this issue will never be resolved.

Now returning to the issue i started this thread i was thinking about the idea that lowering the salary would mean that player skills will lose some of the value and this would be translated in salary making it possible for players with lower potential to train longer thus making the higher potential players become more iconic than a necessity.
I'm referring to lower potential because of the fact that an allstar (this being the middle of the potential) will become in the next seasons a valuable player only for team in the div.III.For me in a medium strong country an allstar player will soon become an substitute at most.
Players with a higher potential would be a worth wild investment because it is very possible that a manager will not achieve his cap instead of making the lower potential more sought off witch in other therms making them useless.
I'm aware that this salary changes are meant to help the teams cope with the constant rise of skills in player but this would make me want to sell my allstars trainee because i can't get a really solid player in comparison to the teams in my div.
