Very nice post Superfly! I agree with all of what you have said, and I am a relitively new manager.

Which particular part of the problem do you expect to get fixed?

Teams with high income and crappy players will always be in better position to spend on the transfer market -- that's not anything that's going to change, so don't hold your breath.



really? didn't you write this about... 2 posts before?

Yes, I did, but you apparently missed the point.

Weak teams will get better players, and become better teams. However, there will always be weaker teams that run on profits, and those will always be able to bid more.

That's life -- the game is created so that the weaker teams are able to catch up, not so that the strong teams become stronger all the time.


Rinse, repeat. Problem solved.


i never held my breath, of course
there's a reason italians don't write in global as much as before, and it's answers like yours

I don't recall Italians ever posting in the forums much anyhow. And in any case, this game is designed for the enjoyment al 50,000l users, not only for the Italians.

I guess there would be ways to do it while preserving the country set up. Like LA-Emilio proposed above (129389.63), there could be an attendance-deflator based on team salary. for example for a league 1 team it could look something like this:
team salary 500k+ -> max achievable arena income c. 650k (unchanged; attendance using the current formulas)
team salary 400k -> max arena income c. 580k
team salary 300k -> max arena income c. 510k
team salary 200k -> max arena income c. 440k
team salary 100k -> max arena income c. 370k
..so that being salary efficient would still pay off, as would owning an efficient arena, but if you want to convince the local crowd that your are a big-time franchise in our global league system you have to spend a bit on star power every week (and our crowds care about sensational paychecks, not a player's performance), no matter whether you are in Tuvalu or Los Angeles. for lower leagues all the max achievable incomes would be lower, in line with the current proportions between league levels.

sorry for missing this post..
i liked your idea very much but i think it should be modified in a better way..
the deciding factor should be league's average salary, not the team salary..
a low-salary team who can be successful in a strong division should be awarded..
if we think about "small countries", for example Japan, league's average salary would help weaker teams in the division as Sharman's high salary will increase their weekly income so they can reach him faster (isn't that what everybody wants?)..
can you think of any downsides..?


This is the best posible solution I have read.


I also agree, these two ideas combined seem like the most elegant solution posted so far. It makes some sense too, from a real life perspective: You can have a bunch of different divisions in your country but if they all have crappy players, people aren't going to pay way more just because you decide to call one of them 'Division I'. Example= American Soccer.

the game is created so that the weaker teams IN SOME COUNTRiES are able to catch up, not so that the strong teams become stronger all the time.

This is the truth ....

Not Italian + not Spanish = 4/5 BB. This also deserves respect.

I don't have anything against any particular nation in BB. However, no nation is bigger than the BB community.

Please respect that. Thanks.


It's not an intelligent answer when a problem exists for a large part of the community (not only for italian&spanish people)
