Let me try and answer a couple of your questions, here's the first set from Koperboy:
So the same applies to max salary you can buy? If a D.IV can buy players with max salary 50k, can he buy a 40k player whose real salary is 60k because of training? Following your logic, he cannot. But if he's a bit new to this, he may get confused.

Only the visible salary is limited when the rank based restriction is applied, so, to answer your example directly, a 40k player with a 60k worth of skill is acquirable by a team with a 50k limit.

Similarly, questions by Aleksandar:
1. Does the salary limit take real salary into account?
2. Does the exception grow weekly?

1. No
2. No

A question by GullyFoyle:
Last season there was a change to the salary formula to make JR and SB cheaper than before. A lot of players were bought or drafted before this change. The training exemption is said to calculate the difference between current salary and salary when signed. Does the calculation use the actual salary when signed, which would have been under the old formula, or what it would have been under the new formula?

New formula.

Another set by Codemasters:
Could you elaborate this a little more?
1) If I guess inside oriented tactic and guess is wrong, is it mine inside defense rating which is lower or both defense ratings? And pp100 higher for opponents players and especially for outside players?
2) If I guess inside oriented tactic and guess is correct, again, my defense ratings are higher? What is impact for opponents pp100, all lower, only for inside players?

Another question, is the impact similar (size) for guessing orientation and pace? Is there some kind of bonus for guessing both (orientation and pace) right?

1) Just the outside defense rating. Pp100 should be higher for outside players of the opponents due to your lowered outside defense.
2) Yes, your inside defense ratings are higher. Opponents pp100 is lower only for inside players.
We do not want to disclose the focus vs pace impact ratio at this moment. We believe there should be some things left to our managers to find out for themselves. The same applies the to the bonus question.

Thanks for clarification.

How about guessing pace then? E.g. I guess only fast pace and opponent has selected Motion offense (not fast). Will this also impact (=lower) for my outside defense ratings?

I just introduced the game to a friend of mine, told him a little bit about the mechanics and we both tried to understand the salary cap/exception/fairness/whatever rules.

He just shrugged his shoulders and told me he wont waste his time with a game, you need a Phd to play. This stuff is just way too complicated. Please rethink all this and find some better solutions.

What a waste of time to code all this, this wont add new users and I really doubt people will stay because of it.

You'd think that by now the BB staff would have learned to consult with your friend to make their decisions.

In addition, when you first play the game, there are loads of ways it's easier. You start in a lower division, where the teams are most often very easy to beat. You have simplified options to setting tactics. You start with enough money to get you by. You have loads of places to find information and lots of people who are willing to share it.

Just like any in-depth game or skill set... You gotta start at the beginning. No one starts kicking soccer balls in the top right corner of the goal on their first day.

What I really want to know is how the problem of these mammoth salaried players is going to be fixed. Over 200k players are selling for peanuts. I'd rent LBJ for a few games in the league I play in. How cool would that be?!

to make the game "simpler" so people with only one synapse will play it is not to make either games, peoples or synapses better.

you know, there are tough PhD dudes who find chess, go and reversi actually very complicated.

I don't know... if I had a friend like that, I would suggest him to try Ludo, or Monopoly. something like that.

on the other hand, perhaps you can encourage him to give it a second try, a good, hard, one. maybe he'll find a better taste and become a fan.
