and that it earned more money from the begin on, and lot of the early investment brings you in an economical better position after two seasons.
And if you upgrade your arena in small steps, you ain't even in an big disadvantage short term to your opponents.

Just from playing around with the prices and arena expansion in my short time here, it appears to me that the game engine rewards expansion over raising prices as far as giving you your biggest gate. Raise the prices even a little bit too high and it could cost you for weeks. Obviously I have no scientific proof on any of that. It reasons to assume that it's going to give your best bang for your buck if you find that happy medium rather than go too far one way or the other just as it would in real life.

why not just increase the prices little by little without expanding? is it not as effective by the game's design?
example: when your attendance is 95%, increase ticket price by $1, the attendance will probably go down to 75%, then when its back up to 95%, increase by 1 more dollar, and so on.


In the long run I believe increasing arena is more profitable than increasing prizes. Problem with increasing prices is also that you can only do it twice in a season, so it is not as flexible compared to increasing arena.

The main bonus of having a big arena is exactly this. You can have relatively low prices and still make a decent amount of money even when you are going bad. And at the time of the good runs you make much more than teams with smaller arenas.

This becomes key the higher in rank you go. Yes, the arena expansions cost quite a lot but think of it a s a one-time investment. Over time it improves your team for sure.
