If i were to suggest a cap, it would be a cap at 1.5x the revenue of the given team, and not 2x the payroll of teams in the league. The idea ought to be keeping people from spending well above their means, with or without cash banked.

However, i am not sure that this is the best idea given that it may tax the engine on updates, nor am i sold that we need to prohibit people from playing the game in their own way all that much other than punishing last minute buys.

This is a terrible idea. I agree that it would reward training multi-skilled guys, but in reality a team can effectively develop only 2 top level players in 6-7 seasons. Rest has to be bought, so the teams that played longer or were tanking right before new rule was implemented would have advantage because they would be the ones grabbing most salary-efficient players, or be able to afford luxury tax.

Getting GS affected by a transfer is a great idea and now just need to manipulate how much the effect should be and tweak with it after testing


The GS hit probably will alter some strategies but in many cases I don't think it will make any difference.

As I said initially, I like the thinking of a salary cap I just think it would be impossible to implement fairly across different divisions and different countries.

this wont work in the majority of countries. I my league salaries go from around 100k (newbies) to 400k (contender), how would you cap those teams?


Just use TV money for reference, like Salary floor does: for example, cap is TV x 4. No cap for D.I.

that would make the transition from one league to another extremly hard.

this game should totally implement a MAX SALARY CAP like the NBA with harsh penalty
there should be no reason one team can have roster 2X your team salary in any level of divisions
one trend i observed at Div2 is that winner is the one who has 200K more committed to players
doesnt really rely too much on player development + tactic
just group of 8 33+ yr olds with 150K starting 5 salaries
that simply implies tanking is the way to go
even with the new game shape penalty next season, i doubt it is enough

I think this is a fantastic idea but it simply won't work in this particular game because of its setup.

A cap in all but top divisions would remove the issue with B3 games.

Make it max could be 4x the salary floor for the league. Would limit it a little but still give teams room to move around.

I like that idea also. to many teams keep a lean roster and spend up later in the season. anything to stop tankers is a good idea IMO.

I see no consequence in your posts. Once you want to make training more profitable, but now you want to make it less profitable. If we got certain number of players in game and if we decrease money supply = prices will drop.
