That's why I wrote that also 2-4 weeks before the end would be ok. The estimation would be more accurate. The first they did it was announced as interval, so announcement of 10% to 20% would be enough for me. But I don't think someone expect 40% drop this season.
I think it's very important for making plans to know how much it's going to decrease.

There is problem of bigmen. Because it was for NT's with these players very hard to keep them in game shape. Now, it could be easier to find the team which keep them for more than few weeks and keep him in good game shape.

All my criticism is based on these principles:
1) lack of communication (including not up-to-date game manual, lack of communication of bug fixing etc.)
2) major changes should be well-tested and announced in advance
3) all the criticism is usually for making the game even better

I love this game, but all has some limits.

He apparently can't look anywhere else than Portugal NT so he can't understand what really happened. They still have some 400k+ guy. But obviously he thinks he knows better than anyone else...

Because now it looks to be fixed. Now, there are 4 players over 400k salary. None of them was over 400k at the morning.

It is not about the Fagot even if I mentioned him. For me it's more about the NT. But after fixing it looks acceptable for me (but I made just very quick analysis I have to go now).
If it is 2 weeks before the salary update, everyone would known that it would be announced so if I sell him a week before the announcement it was just about my bad expectation of what would be announced.
But still I think with some announcement in advance it would be more comfortable for most users.

Ok, 2 weeks before they could have a decent numbers to tell, but were 2 weeks enough? it was to you because you sold fagot the last week, but if you did sold him 3 weeks ago probably it wasnt enough, am i wrong?

As i said, i agree communication is being poor, but everyone should know by know about the changes in the wages. I'm a NT coach and i dont have 400k monsters, and looking at the new salaries of my players i dont see anything wrong.

Sure Silves and Tapia seem to have huge drops, but its probably just a few very-high end players based on the algorythm.

Dont Forget that higher the wage higher the % the salary drops.

And or 3 principles dont apply to the new wages, the way i see it.

Damena, the problem was not just that they didn't announce it, but that salaries changed in an unprecedented way. I'm sure you know Josef-Ka's salary stuff, and the changes to scale with world revenue in the past have been pretty easy to model as an exponential change which affected players proportionately to their salary (so, higher salaries were affected more, but in a predictable way). The current change was disproportionate, and as such, the old model of salary adjustment no longer applied. *That* is the real problem with what happened, since even knowing things would be rescaled could not have predicted it. Fortunately, it seems the BB's realized this was a bug and not their intended scaling and it's being fixed.
