I just got to say - DT fan / GS drop is and hopefully will prove excellent.

Tourny of Champs seems bit more like a lottery (as to involve everyone from season 1-3).... hope I get more luck on the scheduling than in my PL (did I tell you i got drawn away 10/13 times?!)

Enthusiasm changes - again 2 big thumbs up!

Hmm, the changes sounds great, although the drop in GS isn't that important for daytraders, who usually sell those players again without letting them play that much. So it will hurt the 'normal' teams more than the daytrading teams imo, or am I wrong here?

I like the new changes :)

Only one questions... teams in the BB's Best are going to play 4 games per week?
And all games count for the training and the next week game shape?

not sure... for big games if you plan to buy to bridge the gap between you and a competitor then it will prevent this.. but for profit id be more concerned about my bottom line fan base...

unless you are trading 1mil plus players who already have high tax on profit just a drop of 3000 in the bleachers will cost most people another $50k... the player would have to be a serious bargain to consider doing this.

It would seem a 4 game week.. but im also unsure if it will be arcade mode or count towards overall minutes.

one word: excellent!

I will only need 2 clarifications

- Fan enthusiasm changes: You wouldn't be too happy with your favourite team if they sold or traded one of your favourite players, would you? Similarly, your BuzzerBeater team's fans won't be happy if you frequently sell their favourite players.


So is you enthusiasm level affect everytime you sell someone (even if it is a player who has not touched the ball in the entire season?) or only the fans favourite player (in which case how do we know who they are?) + frequently means what exactly in this context?

Playoff Enthusiasm changes (...)]These changes will first go into effect for every game played during our next new feature, which is...


I don't understand this sentence, is there anything missing?
Edit: so basically new enthusiasm rules will not only apply for the PO's (as suggested in the title) but also for the BB best games... or I am mistaken?

Can't wait for the draw! sadly my country will be represented only by me :-( Can I get 3 matches? :-)) (just joking)

Depends how much game shape effect player value. The big hit to day traders cant go fishing for a real high price as easy. Everytime a player is listed (sale or not) they're GS will drop. So if someone is just listed twice to get sold, theyll still end up dropping 4 levels in GS, which is quite a bit.

Any and all changes that are meant to limit (or eliminate) daytrading are welcome in my opinion. So i really like the new changes.

Hopefully we will stop seeing players put on the transfer list at ridiculously high prices.

could have the reverse effect.. people scared to list high and then the players if listed at the wrong time dont get enough competing bidders

first thing i thought about was that i was glad I upgraded (sold weaker players, added younger starters) recently cause i'll be a lot more cautious listing players now.

there's been a lot of people listing players over and over at high prices, this should put a big dent into those.

there is value out there if you look at the dross that changes hands for 500k nowadays.. the 2mil players IMO are worth 2mil but how many teams actually have the cash to splash out the 2mil?

despite getting a leg up in the game for DT for a while Im growing more and more attached to my players (and looks like i'll be getting even more attached!!)

it will be an interesting week i think before the change is implemented... a lot of dead wood appearing on the market and at the end hopefully a more settled market with roster consistency....
