BuzzerBeater Forums

A year (and a week) has passed since you adquired the game.

Could we have some new information about the future of the game, please? Anything will be great.
I remember that it was supposed to be at the end of 2024, but we got nothing.


Have a nice summer all of you

This team has only one mobile app, which has had terrible reviews in recent years. At the same time, the development of the mobile version of BB was halted. It's very strange to stop working on something they're actually competent at.

Their Facebook is inactive, there are no posts on X, and according to their LinkedIn profile, the company has no more than 10 employees. Most likely, the game was purchased to generate passive income without investing in any improvements.

Besides, the game already runs fairly well — they can easily leave it unchanged for a few more seasons without a significant drop in the user base. In that sense, it was a smart acquisition. Why not sell the game later, but at a higher price?

I’ve long stopped believing that any positive changes will come from these owners.

I am an optimist.

I don't think dozens of people need to work on a game like this. You said they weren't doing anything, but there are people who say they've seen the new interface. They may be slowly updating the interface with a small team. When the game's interface changes, the feel of the game will change almost completely. The current interface is ancient.

Besides, in their initial announcements, they mentioned that the coding system is outdated and needs to be modernized. I don't think modernizing the coding system will yield immediate, visible results.

If these two points are achieved, I think BB will make a leap forward:

1) New interface
2) Everything being detailed in the game guide, so you don't have to spend hours browsing forums to learn something (as the new owners have also mentioned)

Btw, they've added a “Show pickup matches” option to the Schedule page

Two lines of code. Wow.
