I think you are right.
BB should make a decision based on functionality and quality of game.
To cater to people's political/racial etc. thoughts is bad. We should all just respect and appreciate our culture and origins but also all the cultures, flags, peoples etc.
All BB should do about this is to make sure they are not offensive and that they are respectful to people.
Clustering us together as nation has always bugged me anyway. It's where I live not my nationality. This is true everywhere. Not my flag, just the flag of where I live.


Maybe BB should take the lead and remove the huge bonus for domestic players. Treat every nationality equal.

Lin is American. But anyways, people love foreigners if they are outstanding. Quite hard to understand how a domestic scrub can make you more merchandise than the best player in the world.

But as you said, thats a different discussion....

Why all of these become the politics talk and racism. We should be ashamed on ourselves if we need this changes because of these factors, or at least close to it. If you guys complained about competitveness, the Utopia league is already there. Why we still need redundant system?

I think BB should close all this meaningless contents.

So you are saying the new-comers, who can't find a good competition, have to buy utopia if they want competitiveness(without actually playing the game competitively). This game is free, and BB-Ryan said that this was out of question.

please note: a good competition is not for every Newbie the most important thing. For some it will be important, for others not.
Some newbie join BB to socialize with other users, for others this would be less important

And screw the other people who could enjoy BB in Scotland ? Let's have a country for 4 people.

You also can't ask a newcomer to pay right away to play in private leagues or Utopia. Buzzerbeater is mostly a free game. You need to enjoy it for some times before being willing to pay for something. Since, the newcomer will be in a micronations dominated by 4 teams, they will quickly lose interest in the game and leave, then the next newcomer will also be faced with the same problem lacking other small teams to play against. Thus, never reaching B3 since there "are only about 4 teams that can actually compete" or the willingness to pay to become Supporter and play private leagues.


I understand your point but I think you misunderstood mine. I was saying that there are only 4 teams than can win the league the other teams are then competing against each other for the other play-off spots so they do have something to play for. A couple of the teams in the play-off positions this season are some of the newer players in Scotland. Scotland only gets a new player about 1 in every 4 months because basketball isn't that popular here.

I agree with you over the paying for stuff bit though so I'll take that out my argument.

That is just a one aspect of this game (almost every games), but people play games mainly to have fun and you can't have fun playing against bots or teams that are waay stronger than you.

newcomer usually will moan about this after 2-3 seasons of playing. and why it is a problem to afford 10 bucks per year?

It is not a problem, rather a luxury. If you want to support BB, or want to get some additional features you can pay. Otherwise this is a FREE game.
