Com‘on guys, let‘s haggle for the entire roster training,
… on the other hand it still won‘t satisfy ya

I agree with you, the change has to be for all players regardless of their age, that would add competitiveness in the leagues (which is the fun of the game in addition to training).

I would like to know the reasons why you change 48 minutes to 45 or 40 minutes.
Is it because some managers complain? they say it is difficult this or that?
But this game is supposed to be difficult. In fact, this game will always be difficult. Only one manager can win the league each season, so it is difficult.
Only a few managers will know the exact path to get the best possible players.

So there are many managers that, after years playing, are unable to make the lineup right.
And you will change the rules because of bad managers?
Nonsense!

It should be changed because it never made real sense to begin with that players as young as 21 and below needed as much playing time to grow as older players.

The saying You cant teach an old dog new tricks is not true but it is close. As people age, they develop athletic skills more slowly. There is a reason why the Basketball and Soccer worlds love young players so much. They can develop them easier then older players.

With that said, why should it take a full 48 minutes to develop a younger player that is far more like a sponge then older players anyway? Just like skills pop at a different rate between older and younger players on here, there should also be that difference in how much time is needed to get that full training effect.

A smart organization adjust and grows over time, not just continues things in the exact same format for sake of doing things the way they have always been done to keep things hard. BuzzerBeater is a smart organization and so hopefully they will implement a change to this effect if they have not already. It does not even necessarily make things 10 times easier anyway, just more sensible and progressive. This is a small but effective way at making a more competitive game

I think that different minutes needed depending on age is even worse.

New managers have to learn too many rules. This game has too many rules accumulated along the years.

Now they have to learn that full training = 48 minutes. You want them to learn a different number for each age?

Rules always take time to learn to be good but this is a change in the game that would benefit the newest players the most even if they do not even understand how they are benefiting from it yet. The best things in life are typically a challenge to understand and/or understand. This game having a lot to it is in that realm. I would not worry about it being to many details to this game, your a manager, not a player, there should be a lot to it honestly. If you want a simpler game, play NBA2k.

A game does not need to be complicated to be a challenge.

Chess has far fewer rules than BB. A kid can learn the rules of chess in a couple days. But hey, thousands of books have been written about that game!

The only reason for BB to have hundreds of rules is that they have accumulated through the years. BBs add a couple rules every now or then to solve this or that. But no BB thinks of taking parts of the game off when they are no longer needed.

So no, there is nothing good about BB being so unnecessarily complicated.

Its really not that complicated... like it really is not. Nor is this idea for that matter.

Due to the change on STA effects... it is harder to maintain Players' Game Shapes... much more... so probably cutting the Training time would also help for us who actively train?

I'm definitely a fan of 45 minutes to get 100% training for all players. I see only benefits of this idea

This would be fine for sure.
