If those people join and leave, this isn't the type of game for them. That doesn't mean that everyone will do that. I like the simplicity that is at lower levels and the fact that, if you want to reach the higher levels, you need to learn and think. If it was a game that was so easy that everyone could start and win straight away, without thinking, well.. I wouldn't play and I'm sure lots of others wouldn't either.

One's preferences will always be subjective.
Having said that, when there is disagreement, usually we need to establish first where it begins and whether common grounds exist.

I believe we all agree that overspending is a problem that needed addressing.
The BBs have done just that. Now its obvious that some people disagree with the action taken in order to counterattack the problem. Fair enough. But...
even if someone doesn't like the action taken, it is too early by any standards to dismiss it as useless and waste of time, without giving it some time to produce data, since the action has reason behind it.
I think that the overextension tax description is simple, but that is my subjective opinion. Since we can automatically have the tax exemption figure, just by scrolling on it, calculating the tax we will need to pay if needed, is elementary school maths and this is pretty objective.
Probably takes longer to add up a TLed player's skills, than figure out how much your OT will be.

My two cents.

Happy new year!

How about guessing pace then? E.g. I guess only fast pace and opponent has selected Motion offense (not fast). Will this also impact (=lower) for my outside defense ratings?
I believe that giving all the answers takes an important factor out of the game and that's finding out how some of the features work. Let's put this question in that category, at least for now.

Last round ONE team in my leage has used. it. 1 out of 16 teams, yes indeed it's almost nobody.

I hope we will see 100% against the bots tonight. That would prove me wrong.

I think Marin's intention was to also correct the low transfer values. Except for well trained all around good players, transfer money is very small percentage of total expenses for a player. For example, you pay a 200k salary guy 500k, or 50k LOL, his yearly wages are 1.4 million. So only 25% goes to transfer and 75% goes to yearly wages, and that number is probably even less on average, basically meaningless.

So one of he goals of the tax was probably to redirect some wage money into transfer money. Also, OE tax, helped by the salary maximum, should retire quite a few of those high salaried players. This should lead to a more realistic transfer market, where you'll actually need to pay for a player, not only maintain his salary.

No, we don't all agree on that. In my opinion tanking and it's gain is the real problem.

If a team saves money earned through training and selling trained players it now is punished in two ways: it can't spend the saved money without getting an extra tax and it doesn't have the training exemption any more because it sold its trained players. Why shouldn't a team spend its money for a team that's more expensive than its saved money?

The real problem is tanking: it makes earning money still way too easy. As long as there are 20000 spectators watching a game with one team intenionally losing by 100 points we need to address tanking instead of overspending.
