Hi everybody, for sure someone else already posted something similar somewhere.. but I want to give my contribution to the development of the game..

BB is getting boring. It's mandatory to do something.. the soonest!!

Actually if you don't think you could be a contender, as soon as you feel that you are safe (from relegation or from an impossible play-out matchup) the economic sistem push you to sell your best player, to rebuilt for the next season. That thing makes the second part of the season very boring for the top team.. and also for whom decide to rebuilt.

In order to disincentive this behavior I suggest:
- trade dead line after the ASG break (that will also prevent a last minute purchase of a monster, just before the play off.. that will distort the whole season..)
- give some economics incentives in order to make more interesting a 3rd or 4th place, instead of tanking to arrive 5th (actually it's still better than a quick exit from the playoff)

Moreover, the game engine has to be changed.. it's really sickening that the inside attacs are much more effective than the outside tactics.. the reinforcement of the shot blocking didn't have any significant effect..

Please do something.. and do it quickly.. I have plenty of BB friends that are getting boring of this game.. since there's no significant improvements..

Thanks

I totally disagree on this point. Last season I had top play playdowns for the first time in ages after playing playoffs regularly. I'm losing a lot of money this season and I think that my bad place last season is the reason. In short term one seems to make more money by finishing 5th rather than 3rd or 4th. But in the long term I'm pretty sure one's doing better finishing better. Which was quite often stated by the BBs but noone seems to believe it.

Exactly! People just worry about that one week of salary, while the long term benefits are being overseen. Just like with shotblocking. Some German dude has been throwing some stats around, that clearly prove SB effect, but no one buys it.

It appears that people, generally, only accept the clearly transparent facts.
