why is no official info about things like this?

That?!

Remember the "giving users heads up on important changes" thing?

I also don't understand why this was done quietly. An explanation is warranted.

If trainers are cheaper, that's a lot of money now unspent. This has a massive effect on the game going forward, and is not something that should have been done with no warning.

I agree that it should have been communicated in advance, but I don't know about you. But I am usually just getting a new trainer every 2-3 seasons when they're getting too expensive in their salary. So for me that doesn't change much except for the fact that I might now get a lvl 5 a bit cheaper than a couple of seasons ago. And won't have to go for a lvl 4, probably. I haven't followed the marked but I'm pretty sure that you still have to pay about 400-600k for a lvl 5 trainer with less than 20k salary ... right?

Edit: might actually really be less now, having a quick look at the market. So maybe you've got a point.

Because it wouldn't be a secret for a few anymore

Why would you need an announcement for that? Just need to open the market and follow bids on certain level of trainers.

Next we will be demanding official announcement for every 5th player put on the transfer market ;-)

Well, if someone from your league puts a player on the transfer list, you get an announcement. So maybe we're already spoiled.

Not a big deal!! Are you joking? Let's say a manager bought a Level 5 trainer with a 30K weekly salary for 500K and at the time there were only 2 or 3 at that price point. How many managers are going to be fighting and bidding for that trainer. And then you flood the market a couple days later and that same trainer goes for 200K because unlike before there are more available. You need to go back and take Economics 101. Supply and Demand.

RL analogy. 8 people are at the dealership to buy a BMW. The dealership only has 5 cars left. Do you think any of them will get a discount? NO. Not even the extended warranty for a special price.
8 people are at the dealship to buy a BMW. The dealership has 20 cars they need to sell. All 8 are going to get special deals.

Not a big deal to the people who are Staff shopping after your secret staff dump to flood the market. A VERY BIG DEAL to those who bought staff before. So when did this take place?

Has anyone actually noticed a big difference in the market? I've taken a look a few times and I don't see a big drop in prices. I'm guessing using your analogy above, the dealership had 5 cars left and added one or two.
