I think most people like buzzerbeater because it's a fast paced game. It's not like some other online sporting simulations where everything takes months to happen


Wow, my opinion on this topic is really the oppsite. I think BB is a very slow game, a season takes three months - and if you want to develop a player from scratch you can make plans for the next year or two. Thats a pretty long timespan imo :D

----------------------------

I think the shorter the offseason is the better, as there is nothing to do at the moment I don't see us profit from an extension to two or three weeks unless something pretty important is introduced, like summer leagues and/or training camps, on the other hand those things seem to be pretty useless as many teams depend so much on their revenues that there could be serious financial problems for some of them.

Just imagine you spent all your seasons income to get some better players before the trading deadline to go deep in the playoffs, lose in the first round and spend three weeks without income...

if you think buzzer is slow, what about hattrick, teahHB, where it takes 5 weeks for a single stat raise?

concerning the spending and income during offseason, well that's a risk...
there must be risks in games.
in first person shooters you die, here you go bankrupt or have to sell players.
good financial decisions are part of the game and what separates good managers from bad ones.
also, the offseason needs to be this long, the BB need time to prepare drafts, relegations and promotions, NT elections must be held and people must have time to present their cases, it can't all be done in a week.

I you are used playing offlien-manager games where a season can be finished in 1-3 hours, or other online manager games where a game daily happens and a season is about a month long, BB is a turtle-paced game :D

in this dimension, what effect has one skill playmaking in HT and one SKill JS in Buzzer for example, i think the general player improvement isn't that different.

in this case the off season, would be as "short" as ever but more fun for teams who are out of competition.

I'd just like to tell you, paragraph your sentences.
Use punctuation marks, new sentences, new lines. It's a bit hard to follow what you're saying this way
