there is an total revenue cap


You don't know this. The more bleachers you have and the lower you set the price per set the higher revenue goes. If there is a ceiling to this nobody know what it is. For now 36000 bleachers @ 11 will get you close to 400k (not including tax) in that section alone. Nobody can say what the max is cause it hasnt been reached yet.

For a team with say 10k bleachers (which is prob well over the ave for even d1 teams), catching up with this would cost 5.2m, just in bleachers alone.

in this case watch your "enemys" and learn from them, as far as i know only germany have that big arenas yet and we are adapting from teams like Tall Blacks, ESV laim and the Bulls.

The 10k bleachers was pretty low for a german div 1 team, i would say a normal team in our league has around 20k and because of the team succes we also manage this for prices around 11 bugs ;) So we are relatively in the same area, in ticket prices and efficiency.

In other country it is mostly the same, and maybe we think a bit too late to build but we see could see the facts what a big arena brings and we also should keep an eye on the opposing teams(and top teams of your country) and what they doing, so that it doesn't happen that you play with a 10k arena vs an 40k one.

I'm not arguing for my sake, but for any team that hopes to have any chance of challenging the established teams. I understand the "arms race" you all are having in germany, and now the rest of us around the world are joining in on to hope to compete on the international level.

But, what about the teams promoting to our divisions, how are they expected to have any chance? For instance, none of the teams potentially promoting to D1 in germany are prepared to compete, except for one team that was only relegated to DII last season.

If it costs 5kk to catch up, Italian and Spanish teams only need to sell one of their best players.

I believe a guard with 14/14/14 is worth something like 4kk for example.

Sell it and use all the money to expand arena. If all italian top teams do that, they will equally become more fragile, and that would mantain the level of competitivity and avoid the seller to automatically relegate to freakish div.II.

I bet a lot of teams around the world would go to the line to buy those players.

Teams that have pioneered, and the few well positioned to follow, in expanding arenas well past what you'd assume a basketball arena to be will become untouchable to all but a handful of the 45k and growing teams in the game.

You didnt read my prior posts or didnt comprehend my point. I'm not really concerned about established d1 teams. You example of top italian or spanish teams are most likely in good position to take advantage of this. In the first 4-5 seasons teams made much more money per season then any teams that have started in the last few seasons.

i think this problem is in mnany countries, because you earn a lot in the first devision, before they make the regulations even with a small arena which gives the old first divisiioners and good advance in front of the teams who started below.

(34185) - this team started in league for of germany, don't traded players and have an nice arena + plays a good season in league one.

We have many team even in our third league, who have bigger arenas then the biggest in italy first.

It isn't easy to catch up but with a bit of time you could catch up, at least to the medium teams, because they earned not much more then the good teams the league below.
And i am pretty sure the times you earn a lot every week will end the next 2-3 seasons in the top division, even in germany because high salary player get avaible and even got more expensive.

Well I started in season 2 in IIIrd division and I've arrived this season in A. I was able to be promoted simply having more costs than revenue otherwise I should be still in second division. Only now I can invest something in the arena but I'm sure to lost a lot in power and the risk to go back in second division in the season 8 is real. After that if you don't win often your arena is often empty so at the end now is not easy to try to follow you

Right, and instead of the top teams starting to hit a cap on revenue, there is now a way to take further advantage of being a team that started in the first 4 or so seasons.

And i am pretty sure the times you earn a lot every week will end the next 2-3 seasons in the top division, even in germany because high salary player get avaible and even got more expensive.


My salaries went up almost 50% this season, and yet I made more this season then last. Almost all players are capping out at around 50k-75k in salary, only a very very small % are high potential players that are starting to break that.

If you need a 40k+ arena to afford the best players, then that's the only place they will exist. If you want to be able to compete for the best players, then you'll have to spend around 10m to catch up. (you do know how long it takes to make 10m in the current economy, right?)

Great, BB will be a game primarily about building arenas.

There are some news regarding the possibility to have the tax on the arena? I remeber that someone asked to introduce it but I don't remember if this proposal has been accepted by BBs
