No one knows at this point, and I presume that it wont be discussed in more depth for some time now.

Was the filters for TL that necessary? I believe it makes it too easy to find players now. This goes for both normal and NT teams. I know a lot of people requested it in the suggestion room, but i didn't believe it was necessary.

I don't think that the TL was designed to make searches difficult on purpose, but that's just me.

I love the changes and the proposed changes. I have nothing to complain about, which is different for me. ;-)

Love the changes. Though I have some trepidation on the new season since I moved up and as I scout teams in my new league I feel like it's going to be a long brutal season.

Am I really going to be the first one to bitch and moan about the new Tax? (sorry thats unfair I mean tax on those others that dominate their league and desperately want to compete with similar teams on a global scale - but every time they think they're heading in the right direction another axe falls down on their planning)

The 10-20% on foreign players????

What a joke... Show me 3 players from Japan that would get in my team??

Id rather just lose on the Buzzer to someone from a more developed nation where BB get the majority of their supporter income from (oh... i did once......) Least that way I can blame my tactics or the match engine rather than continuously believe that every season there is a new rule to ensure that successful teams that sadly dont have much competition within their own country are given an even harder task of competing in the precious few games they have when they do venture outside to play teams from other countries.

Why not only invite teams from countries with 100 or more users to play in BB3?

Are you waiting for me to press the button to buy 10,000 more seats before adding a paragraph about Arena Tax? I apologise to Hambourg/Tall Blacks in advance cos i just know as im building my 35,000th seat its going to be announced... either that or a new reduced Season Ticket Holder formula (to be tested in Japan first)

You do realize that no-one actually has an idea what this means precisely, right? I don't see any specific details released in the News announcement.

No ofense, but this would actually balance teams a lot.

Cases like yours or Toroo are very similar: top teams that have trouble finding competition within the national league, mainly because fewer users equals to fewer competition.

From this situation, we all can see that it is much more easy for teams in your position to mantain full attendance and thus making tons of revenue cash. On the other way, sucks a lot not being able to train national players (at least I think).

But my point is that the same lack of competition that would "overcharge" your players, at least the international ones, is at the same time, responsable for granting more revenue.

Balance to the Force.

OK OK.. so it was my immediate reaction..

I HOPE that 20% will be on teams in countries where they have massive amounts of users and players to choose from (so why buy overseas players)

and that countries with much smaller userbases that have to look elsewhere to improve their roster only get penalized 10%

PLEASE PLEASE let this be the way!!!!!!!!!!!! (it actually makes more sense the more I think of it!!)

You ready for our $4mil one off game yet??

Edit- sorry re-read the news.. it will favour teams with homegrown players... so I will stand by my original thoughts. This is just a tax for the sake of a tax.

Almost every team need to buy young players from the market, because we only have 3 new players every season, and most of them are too bad.

The 10-20% on foreign players will be a disaster for new teams in big country.
