I think one of the major issues with the game is that you should be rewarded for home grown talent and punished for no home talent.

Lets face it. Who cant get 5 Spanish/Italian/Chinese players and rule their division?

But why would people pay big money prices when there isnt a native player even appearing in the game.


If this game made starting young talent in league games a premium, people would train themselves instead of sending their draftees to farm teams then buying them back. I think the top leagues simply pay too much for teams that only win.

You win with home talent, your wallet should be bursting open.

If you win a home game with a starting 5 from your home country in the top league, why wouldnt your merchandise spike upwards of 50k that week?

The training is best part of the game. Watching big salaries slam against each other on mutual Look Inside CTs? Not exciting at all.

Buzzerbeater isnt a game of tact. You dont win with "strategy". You win with cunning, shady buy/sells on the transfer list, tanking to save, and renting expensive players.

Its sad, but its the truth.

tank to save, rent to win, look inside. Thats what the game seems to have become.

I just personally refuse to play the game that way. Im training my guards hoping that sooner or later the game is evened out, and well rounded players can dominate the game as they should over lopsided guards with no IS or Bigs with no JS/Handling.

Just trying to have fun. But its clear the trading list is all about underpriced SFs that take training without rise in salary.

6 mill for underpriced SFs

and 1 mill for well trained players. Unfortunate but the new reality.

in the salary regions of the german league i would say an all german lineup, make nearly those 50k extra each week then a comparable foreign one(same NT contribution).

in germany not every first division tanker, made it back to the first league and nobody slam with that strategy till now. In nippon i think promoting is much easier i believe, since there ain't that much team who maxed out there salarys but hopefully you make this step to a big nation in future. And i am not saying that tanking is always bad, but is it no winning guarantee and not the only way.

it's like saying NBA teams shouldn't even bother having rookies, since the skill difference is SO huge...it might be time that the rookie/young player skill curve isn't too high


This game is nothing like the NBA so no sense in thinking about it that way.

Trainee's (not rookies) can still play in league games at the top level, just not 18 year old trainees. You need to get 21+ year old trainees instead. Think of it as 3 years of college ball. ;) And save the 18 year old trainees for scrimages. That's what they're there for.

Oh my god....This is the second forum thread where I agree with Sharman on his point...
So let me show you some examples...I bought a 26 year old PG with level 15 OD and 14 passing for 3 million(that was with a 26 minute biding war) in season 14 and now it is season 18 and I just bought a 26 yr old level 19 OD and 21 passing(Buzzermanger says it's a 21) NT starter for 1 million and had to fend off 2 other bidders for 3 minutes on a Saturday Night(prime time with 2780 users online)....Crazy stuff...I know the guys salary is 300K a week but he was just sold for 4.6 million 2 seasons ago(and his salary was 220K at the time)..
This game is in demise..People just don't want to admit it..Nothing new or cool added in two season and now I read about people letting the AI in the game select the line up for the game( Blank Lineup garbage). I thought LET COACH DECIDE was a cop out but this is just sad...pretty soon there will be a download Grease Monkey and Auto Play option like on some of the Facebook games.
I started playing in season 7 and at the same time I started to play Hattrick...Now Hattrick is evolving with tons of new stuff added this season and last. I really think that this game was started as someones hobby and now it's not that persons hobby anymore. It's like your High school sweetheart( she is in every thought) and then when you go to college you slowly forget about her....BuzerBeater is that High school sweetheart and the BB's/developers are off at college..
