We only have 3 modes of difficulty in game , just to make it even more interesting to have one more difficulty level where you are the coach and you take control everything from timeouts , encouragement , substations , change tactics , etc.
People complain all the time that the coach is not good , calls for timeout in in 2nd quarter and your star player got 47 minutes only in the week game so he will get only half of training . Happened to you also right ?
I know live match substitions while watching is not possible as first of all people play from different time zones so not everyone can come online for matches and secondly BB games are completed even before you can see it live .
How about you can control when (time based) or at what situation (points based) you want to make timeouts ... Suppose you know next game is gonna be a massacre so want to change tactics when point between teams is like suppose 10 , 20 , 30 points , etc.
Or you want your star player , Tracy McGrady (NBA 2007 game cover superstar) to come only in last 10-15 minutes from the bench and finish the game in style ( and plus completes his 48 minutes for training also)
The thing is you can select , when to subsitute immediately at his given minutes or at next timeout( which might goto all the way to 4th quarter ) ... the thing to see is your coach doesnt do anything at timeouts expect substitutions , but how about you can motivate/encourage your players at timeouts either aggressively by slapping his face and tell him to wake up and bring his A game , or by praising him or simply a pat on back . You can slap a younger player but an older player might get more depressed or refuse to play as his pride/respect was shattered .
Also in your schduled timeouts you tell your team to change tactics , suppose you winning by 15+ points , you tell your team to pass ball and waste time , but incase you losing by 10+ points , you might want the team to shoot more often without wasting much time . Current engine doesn't allow to change the tactics at all in between game .
(You would have to decide all that in advance as BB games are not live )
You have any suggestions please add on to it , like how about 1 timeout in each quarter maximum or you can make your 200k/week star player play even if he is causing foul trouble , but if your amateur player is giving problem you could get him out (Current engine only allows let them play , sit them ,etc. but i don't want stupid coach to sit my star player )
