My recommendation is that BuzzerBeater needs one of these two things that they currently don't have:
1. Someone in charge who is invested in its success
2. Become open-source so the community can invest in its success.

p.s. If anyone wants to buy BuzzerBeater, let me know and I can put you in contact with the owner


Justin,
Can we try and run a crowdfunding project with the goal of purchasing the game and making it open-source?
Who knows, we might succeed..

I think that becoming open-source is a mistake. No one knows how the game engine works, and if it's open, it will become a mathematical game. When midichlorians entered the Star Wars universe, the mystery flew out the window.

I don't think they ever announced this. But they actually started a new product 10+ years ago that would be a new game mode using the BB game engine. The best way to explain it would be a Career Private League mode that could go at its own pace with customizable rules. (They never finished the work on that, but they did ask me if I could resurrect that project).


Is it possible to know a bit more about this? As a non-competitive pvp as I am, I'd be very happy to play something like a Career mode.

Thank for all the valuable information.



Very curious about that point too, i'd love a solo career mode too.

And Justin is doing such an amazing job considering the total blur which was around BB for so many seasons. Sometimes i don't understand the bashing around him, but it feels like BB is on a good way into his hands.

Justin, you should open your contribee or similar account, where we could subscribe. This way you may become fully employed BB developer.

It certainly would not be 100% open source. We wouldn't want the calculations/formulas exposed.

I am pretty sure, that if some managers (like JosephKa, me and some other ones) cooperate, we would get already most of the calculations and formulas ;) not 100% at everything, but we wouldn't be that far away.
