I'd much more like to have a farm team or youth team option within the primary team!

Which means a youth roster of maybe 12 players in the age of 15 to 20, that can be forwarded to the first team from an age of 18 up.
Those players should be trained much faster and much more individually than players now! Should start with lower skills (1-3) that can maybe set by manager (i.e. 10 skills per player, no skill higher than 3 or 4) and should have simple to manage training league. This youth team could also play scrimmages against own or other teams.

Every team should have the possibility to gain up to 5 new young players at the beginning of every season. If youth players are older than 20 and were not promoted to first team, they should disappear. Same if roster grows to >12.
Even names of youth players could be free to set (maybe with generated first name or automatic double names check ..).

This could be a feature for all - improves game significantly.

Excuse me for bad english ... I hope some BB programmers / decision makers can read this. ;-)


+ my idea is less schizophrenic. :D

I think 2nd team is an horrible idea!

Hattrick is not a more beautiful game now, and there, there are already the 2nd teams.

BB is wonderful without inserting the 2nd teams!

Talking in Italian, this is what I think about 2nd teams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbAVxSrgUKU

These secondary teams will not be in big nations.

Again, no evidence to support or deny this, apart from what I have stated above, which, at this point, sorely leans away from your favour.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see it happen. I just think that, because of the nature of the beast (i.e. us humans), it could create a plethora of rules and restrictions that could being quite boring and frustrating.

I thought I read earlier in this thread that the intent was to populate bot teams in micronations, but I certainly could have misread that. Perhaps the intent was to allow second teams in any country. I apologize if I misunderstood that.

As the proposal stands, I would want a second team in the USA, not a micronation.

But I'd much rather have B3 eligibility

And much further still have the utopia option.

Supporter should not equate to an advantage over non supporters. That's a good way to chase many non supporters out. Currently, supporter privileges just enhance the gaming experience and that's all it should do.

The reason so many of these MMOs die after a while is because they go for the "free to play, pay to win" business model. Then sooner or later everyone realizes that in order to win they have to shell out more and more money which not many are willing to do.

BB would die with this model as it is critical that the number of users stay high.

Of course this should be accessible for all users.
I think it is necessary to increase the fun for "normal" users as well. They left in high numbers over the last months.
If not, you will have a very small community only with supporters one day. ;)

Nice apology. Thanks for trying to input (and I don't mean that in a sarcastic way towards you).

Thanks I guess..?
