Heading on the right path so far. Are you?

If there are advantages to the supporter package

I think if the game has given you a lot of enjoyment, buying a supporter package for yourself or someone else is the best way to give a little something back.


I will say to this end
What KIND of advantages???

Supporter offers utility and QoL improvements. Opens up RolePlaying aspects via Press Releases and cosmetic changes. Actual advantages and P2W would turn a lot of people off. Positive word-of-mouth is probably the best free advertising option.


What is the purpose of restricting us from some features vs. others from the BBs perspective?

Probably server load (technical) and incentivizing a sale (the ability to make Press Releases is a huge factor in my decision to pick up a package, some other feature may be on someone else's "must have" list.)


What is most PROFITABLE for BB?????

POSSibly breaking the package up into A la carte options which when purchased separately would be greater than the sum of the current package full price. Might be a really bad idea too though wth do I know?

The only things I would like out of the supporter package are like the ability to assign my player certain jersey numbers (which is totally useless anyway), the teams hall of fame and the ability to search by TSP on the transfer list.

I think offering some options would make more money in total, as users like me that like certain parts of the supporter package either pay the full amount or nothing at all. Considering the current environment, I guess many opt not to buy.

But what would BB do with more money? Seems like everything is fine as it is and more money wont change anything, so why bother?

Perhaps they could benefit from splitting up the package some if they do it in a smart way. They get money from non supporters from ads. So if they make it so that the smaller supporter packages that you suggest dont remove the ads. That only comes from being a full supporter.


Tbh. Ads are probably the worst part about the game. As Wolph once wrote and was ridiculed for they are somewhat shady (meet your asian/african/mexican girl) and some totally kill my browser (you are the 1.000.000th visitor, really! you won an Ipad/whatever) - so I guess they might scare off some people too.

I cannot install adblock on my office computer due to no admin right, but if I could I would remove the ads. I'd probably pay a small sum to have BB remove them for me.
