BuzzerBeater Forums

It seems to me like you're comparing a free game with a game/exercise tool that cost 10$ / month to use.
I kinda see something that hinders a fair comparison right there.
And i do not at all need to defend the game in any way. I will speak against parts i dont like just as freely as normal users do if they want to.

I am talking about things advancing. And this game is not advancing.
And to be honest....this game sucks as a free game. They should give Private league games to everyone. 3 games a week is not enough. So you do have to pay for the 4th game for the week. Which means to make this game worth it, you have to spend. So it is not that much less than Zwift.
I would try and compare Buzzerbeater to Hattrick but why compare two sinking ships.

Well, another prove to my opinion on why buzzerbeater needs an App, much more than more tiny game improvements, in order to bring this game alive...

I just restarted playing a Football online game a week or two ago, that has an App (and didnt have 5y ago when I played before). This game gives the possibility to play in the same league as friends, just a private league, but still I never managed to get much people involved in the past...just 6/8 and the rest all just join and just play 1 day lol. I know its just a week or two, but still, I can see when managers login (hours and minutes), and I've seen every single user of the 16 of my league super involved so far. Doing transfers, checking in game, and that's awsome. Since they are people that don't usually stick around the computer, and some of them don't even use one on a normal week, this is great.

With the app, we get notifications for everything we wont! From bids that we just won/lost, talent players that came from the youth team (no draft eheh), to warnings to make your team! This is great....even for me, a normal and experienced PC user, I appreciate those things. The beautifull and simple design of the app is another thing that makes people enjoy the experience..

Just saying

That's a huge assumption on your part. If some wealthy company decides they want to make a basketball management game with a 3D viewer (or even 2D) they probably could afford to hire a dozen developers and a couple of graphic artists to make it happen. BuzzerBeater is nowhere close to having those kind of resources. BB has a single developer whose primary responsibility is to make sure the site keeps running smoothly.

Wow!! You just admitted to what I have been saying. Nobody at BB has the skills to overhaul the heart of the game, THE GAME ENGINE!!! So this developer is there just to make sure the site stays up....sad!! And why should I donate money to BB now after you admit this?

That sounds like you want those users begging for changes to things like training or other big improvements to sit down, be quiet and stop bugging the BB management for changes to the game because management never had any intention of actually listening.

If so that is a shame. This is a really good game that could be great with the right changes.
