We collected some questions in the german message board(208722.1), and make a quick poll there to determine the most important one. I ordered then descending on popularity in percent:


1 Are there other hidden attributes than the "physical" skill?(100%)

2. Are changes in the game engine planned?(ie look inside) (87,5%)

3. Gameshape: dependent on current game shape and minutes only or a long-term calculation with more than one week influential? If so, how does the initial calculation at the beginning of a season work (week 2 / 3). (87,5%)

4. How important is insideshot for the guards, and Jumprange for the big men? And how they impact the shot selection? "+": 13 " -": 2 (87,5%)

5. Who will be assigned the man-to-man defender in the box and one defense strategies?(86,7%)

6. How big is the effect of a PR manager on attendance?(75%)

7. How important is blocking in comparision to the ID?(75%)

8. Is last years result of a team a key in determining TV games (home / away - strength of opponent)? (68,8%)

9.Why is rebounding so expensive for the guards, is it that important for them?(62,5%)

10. Is the calculation of merchandise income based on the performance in the prior week or is it dependent on multiple weeks?(62,5%)

11. Insideshot is really cheap for small forwards, does this mean they don't need it that much?(60%)

12. Will you change the rival system, so that every team gets one rival?(56,3%)

13. How big is the difference of attendance revenues regarding teams that finished 4th and 5th in the prior season, neglecting all other impacts? (The answer possibly given as an estimate in relation to the average arena income?)
(56,3%)

14. Are there changes planned for the All Star Game? Is it played with the new engine?(50%)





15. Do you plan additional awards?(37,5%)

16. Do you plan to add a filter for cup / league games in the stats pages?(37,5%)

the rest was so unpopular that even i cut it ;)

Edit: translated a german question

Edit: make question 10 and 13 clearer

edit3: finetuned 13 again

Do all the specialties of our personnel (Doc, Coach, PR) work in the same way?

Coach with career extension: afaik it's checked first if his specialty is working this time (%-check). If it is working there will be no skill drop.

Do you use the same procedure e.g. for a coach with massage-specialty? Or does he reduce minutes played by a fixed margin?

Hello,

I have some questions too :)

- As far as I know, you still use the first game engine on All Star Games, which give laughable result. Do you plan to update it ?

- We have more and more difficulties to help managers in training for U21 and A team. A long time ago, BB said players wasn't well trained, especially center. So we changed our politic and developped secundary skills like a lot of others countries. The victory of USA in WC17, with no secundaries skills, shows us it wasn't a good idea.

So, do you plan to favor secundaries skills in the next seasons ? It would be great to push managers in this way and limit the case of high salary player who goes in farm team because no others can pay them.

- A last question about skills > 20 or legendary. You can go to 21, 22, maybe even more. What's the aim to allow this ? You can't see it, except with buzzer manager (for example), so it can't sell well. Is there a real benefit ? I don't get it.

Thanks

The question above reminds me another one I care a lot: is there an ASG rework planned? I don't mean the match, but the whole event. I feel right now that that week is just a waste of time, are you going to involve more the league users? (voting players just an example - there are some topic in the suggestion area).

Are their any plans to fix Crosstraining? What I mean by that is having over 30 year old get pops, by training Gameshape? Also is gameshape, trained via crosstraining? If it is, is it possible to remove it from Crosstraining?

Thank you

Sorry that this question won't be that compact, but we currently discuss in the help forums about the 1-3-1 Zone again and about the placement and dutys of the position. Since in reality they vary a lot.

If we take this nomenlature for the basic formation:

A
B - C - D
E
o|


Who would defend what position?

Is E main work, to run betwen the corners, and should look more like a classical guard defender with lot of outside defence, or are rebounding and Insidedefence main prioritys for this position?

o| = basket
