BuzzerBeater Forums

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..

Who cares about a football? Wasn't hattrick that great game, where you just had to train playmaking (I remember there were people whining about it)? No other options or you lose. It's obvious Japan users have a bit more fun with 636 users, but it's nothing compared to France's 58k.

A cursory search of your transfer history shows that this guy (7954778) was the last player you purchased for ~3 mil. The purchase occurred during season 13 and he was 23 at the time. Little bit different.

Seems to me that 2 things have happened in this game:

1. the supply of quality older players has finally caught up with the demand for said players.

2. most users have realized the benefit of having 300k+ salary monsters doesn't match the cost.

These phenomena are both good for the game, as the former economic model made it impossible for 90%(D3 and below) of the BB population to have any realistic shot at competing in the upper divisions.

Your perception doesn't match reality, unless you believe the BBs lied to us when they announced the hiring of the 3 new staff members.

Well....They fired two(one for cheating) so they really only hired one that was worth anything.

Hi I am a daytrader. And I have a clear conscience.

Have you think about how leagues are more competitive each season due to the training of all rosters?
Have you think about the difference in the Arena size? I joined BB in season 12 and I get a 18.000 stadium. User struggling in my same division are all older (BB-Team age) than me. So they had more time to invest on the arena. How can new-user grown faster than olders?

My point of view is that TL is a democratic place... - Maybe we can say, that it is a democratic jungle -
I tried to explain how I buy & 2weeks & sell to a few users, but they do not have my same results. A lot of things determine it and it is legal.

Market is going to be like now during a few seasons if no change will be done. Because, the first top-player are now on an age where none buy them for the FA first price. a 200k Center with multi-ridiculos of 32yo, it is not reliable for 1M.

GM made some changes - like the minimum salary cap - that are making economy more reliable, and I like this changes.
I also think that a lower market is more democratic. Players are more difficult to find if they are a first category player.

The only thing I found unfair is the difference between small and big countries.
For this reason I always hope that a filipine team will buy one of my 1k investment for 100k. As Robin Hood...

I find this giving me a headache and being amusing at the same time.
