IMO the salary formula should be lowered for the high skills

a player like ikstens is not a freak, his higher skill is only a 17
i think a well trained player should never have an unaffordable salary

Well this thread and the farm thread are long enough now with enough people raising concerns that if a BB wanted to comment I think they wouldve done.

Either there is an announcement in the pipeline about the stance on escalating wages and how they view that in the long run of the game OR we are going to be left to work it out for ourselves.

One thing is for sure though is that it will further complicate any TPE or dubious transfer as there are now even more variables to add to the equation.

Im sure some managers would pay more for a high ID/RB with little IS & SB ( i would) to save 30-50k on salaries.

It will hopefully promote more specialist players that fit certain tactical systems but for farm teams the caps wont apply... these players will just bounce about and sadly when a team wants to depart the game they can choose to just disturb the balance of their league with a couple of cheap purchases before going out in a blaze of glory.

It sort of makes the trainer prices even more out of whack cos its possible to create players by the age of 21 that wont ever have to be trained again. There seems to be zero value for a lvl 6 and lvl 7 trainer if its only going to take marginally longer.

the problem is how much the formula could be lowered...i think that the level of salary of fanesi and ikstens afteri the updating of end season is however well proportionate to the strenght of these player,the problem will be in the future,when the increase of the salary will be not proportionated with the improvement of the level of the players.
And there is also a problem about incomes of tv games,that could be proportionated to the level of the league and not equal for all the teams,from II Dominican division to the Italian Serie A o the Deutschland Bundesliga

No, they are indeed frankenballer - overtrained, useless freaks who will not fit into a star-studded franchise.

I know you won't agree with me - you appear to think players have some god-given right to be triple 18-skilled, whereas triple 14 not only makes much more sense, it allows players to emphasise one skill or another (at a defined cost) and give meaning to the levels about wondrous.

I absolutely love it that every training slot of every week has consequences, and you can't develop one player at the expense of your franchise, unless you effectively have quit the game in favour of NT 'glory'.

perhaps the anti-farmers should set up the NT-Player Police and use the anti-cheating forms ;-)

I completely disagree. 200k+ per week for ikstens skillset is not worth the money. You can get a player that has 3 fewer pops per the main three inside skills for 1/4th or 1/3rd the price. Is 3-4x the salary worth it for only a few extra pops? Not a chance.

I fully agree with you.

My highest paid center (62k) regularly posts a rating of only 1.0 lower than Ikstens and costs 3 times less. I know Game Ratings arent the most accurate way of measuring a players value, but they arent far off, especially in a big sample of games.

Ikstens has just inept stamina, thats low, if he gets it to respectable, then his ratings will be way up

maybe one solution is to lower the caps for each potential

comparing to reality,does it makes sense that we have a lot of all-time greats with triple 18,19,20 for example? I don´t think so

back to the potential...maybe the highest should,maybe it is like this adn we just didn't figured it out yet,hit the cap before the "all-time great level" ,so if someone wants to create a millionaire monster he will have to have some patience

just an idea,sorry if I made some language mistakes
