Sorry to disturb you :D
So what do you think about the near future? I thought we had the lowest prices last season but I was wrong.
Then do you think BBs have to correct this situation or is ok?
This economy is quite interesting for me I did bad choices so for sure I'm in trouble until something will not change but today no one day trader can make easy money and is hard to find the best compromise between salary and competitivity.
From the other side the market is frozen and this is not "fun" and, personal opinion, training seems not so good as in the past under the point of view of entrance when you sell a player.
I think we head further down. (price wise)
For me its not just about wage its about the winning - if you want to win you have to push the boundaries to the limit. If you are the only team that wants to win in a division / country then you are fine as you won't have to max out your roster to achieve your goal. As each country matures you expect to see at least 2 potential or capable winning teams.
Winning can be achieved by;
Simply being better on court (better tactician or trainer)
Being better off court (consistently more arena income or cash reserves)
Short term value of players to raise cash on the Transfer Market.
You can make a run at a tournament by dipping into your cash reserves to give you a competitive edge. In a lot of countries & BB3 there is likely always 1 or 2 kamikaze teams that want 1 last shot of personal glory before quitting. So when there is more than 1 team trying to win, you have to max out your resources.
So if you aren't one of these teams what do you do?
Do you keep anyone over 26 with $150k+ wage? (over 2million a season) - Will you lose 2million in arena/income from not having such a person on your roster?
Become a cup specialist? Reserve your best 5 for a deep cup run, tieing in your league, training efficiently & effectively giving yourself a 1 week gameweek.
Lower your wages early in the season and then time and make a run to finish in the best position for you as you see how your league is developing. (Do you finish 4th and buy players ahead of the play-off because you believe you can win or 6th and crush your opponent in a best of 3)
I also think there is a trade off between prices and features in the game.
Players worry about spending because they have only a few trophies available to them. League + Cup.
If there was a BB3 equivalent for all Division 2 winners or Division 3 winners (Division 4/5 would be too many teams) - this would encourage promotion and also you would imagine encourage more teams to fiercely compete at all costs. If the first time you promoted up to a new division you got a much higher cash incentive (promote, relegate, promote would not give you the same cash prize) you would give those teams a better chance of surviving in the next league up.
Just these type of things alone would shift the mentality of the average player to be more aggressive and when there is more at stake there are more variables to consider and strategies to undertake.
To conclude, as great as the game is right now, it still needs more variables and I used to say this should be reflected in player values and on the transfer list - as this is not going to be the case, create more tournaments, change the promotion/relegation rewards & penalties and I believe this will add much needed stimulus to the long term user base.
