5) Interaction with tactics during the game
BB games are calculated during the 15 minutes before the game (the one were you can't anymore change your tactics). After that, it's just a replay. Interacting during game would need a totally new GE and it's also against the idea that people do not need to be connected all the time to win. On the opposing side, we have people asking for one or two more games a week. To be good, you would have to be connected every evening of the week. Not even talking about the last two weeks who were holidays with people being with their family.


That's my answer to you on Global. So you are one of those user who want a game every day and furthermore you want to give advantages to those connected during those games. It's OK for some people, but most of us (yeah even me) do not want to be connected every evening on BB.


Wow. Didn't even think of it that way lol. I was not realizing that you would have to go on everyday. I guess I just randomly ranted lol. I don't think this is a good idea anymore lol

Maybe one thing that could happen is that you could pre set when to call a timeout. For example, if the opposing team goes on a 9-0 run, a timeout would be called automatically and the coach will tell the players to, ultimately stop the run. Another example, it a team misses 4 or 5 consecutive threes, a timeout would be called to tell the guys- Take less threes.

This would be preset and would make a difference.
Any chance that could work?

Nah, I would not like to see that implemented. The thought of having 60 games per 2-3 months gives me a headache, it's just too fast and also advantages users, who spend all their free time in BB. Better leave it as it is:)

Yep. I agree now. I think I was just kind of making outrageous suggestions because I was alarmed today when I saw 30000 members. That's all lol

Well you are right, BB really needs some drastic change, otherwise decrease in numbers will continue, and game will die, sooner or later. Just, my opinion is that this suggestion is not that drastic change that we need, all the reasons are already mentioned before:)

if we want more games I still think this is the best way:

(223396.1)

(223396.3)
I once suggested that there should be a tournament designed like the national tournaments that include the top 2048 or 4096 teams(by WR) who arent a part of BBB. The winner could get a spot in BBB the next season. It could be played on Wednesday with the BBB games and would be designed like them. No effort, no minutes towards training or GS, and injuries are only ingame.


(223396.10)
If we wanted to invlove as much of the community as possible we could do tiered tournaments.

Tier 1 - B3
Tier 2 - Next 4096 teams not in B3
Tier 3 - Next 4096 teams not in Tier2 tournament or B3
Tier 4 - Next 4096 teams not in Tier3 tournament or Tier2 tournament or B3
and so on and so on, and then fill out the last tier with bots if necessary. Then have an extra tier or two just incase BB receives an influx of managers. Or just stop at somewhere around 40000 managers(lower preferrably) just so that lots of manaagers signing up has no impact since they wouldbt be ranked that high anyways. The rankings would be the rankings used right after the offseason update.

Their could be a cash incentive every game like cup games, but something cheap like 15k a win until the QFs. Then winning the tournament can net you x amount of money which would stay constant throughout every tier and not be too much(something like 150k), dont wanna feed the top teams too much. Then if you win a Tier 4 tournament for example you would receive:
150k, A spot in the Tier 3 Tournament next season(even if not qualified for it) and maybe like a 1 month trail supporter. Or maybe 3 months so that they can actually join a PL.

This could make Wednesday kind of busy as well though and could take a lot of work to implement, but it would add another game that doesnt have too much impact beyond some chump change here or there and can incorporate all of the BB world.


perpete, any word if the BBs have thought about something like this yet?

The great solutions in my opinions should be something like 2x or 3x speeded server. every supporter team should have ability to have 2nd team on that server, there should be one "Country" so it should be very competetive. There time would pass much faster so you could find out many different strategies faster.
