The feature that kept me engaged in BB where other online managers failed is that the game engine and the results it generates actually makes sense. Whilst upsets happen more often nowadays compared to when I first started, they almost always have proper context behind them to explain why one team lost. You won't see much weaker teams inexplicably win games like I used to see on other manager games I tried (Trophy Manager was a particularly bad offender).

This means that the manager has more control over their own destiny, as opposed to it being left in the hands of the dice shooter.

Damn you, I was expecting our necromancer and a 10 years old thread

Hi There,

Training for me!

I have some opinion on the training system...

Can the young players (18y-19y, not include 20y-24y) train even faster in training? Because the max. ability of one category is 9 (18y: 8)

For example, a 19y rookie have 7 jump shot and 6 jump range. ( An 'A' skilled rookie)
As we know, it generally takes 2 weeks to pop once in jump shot having lv. 5 trainee.
It would need ~26 weeks (nearly 2 seasons!) to raise his jump shot to legendary(20+).
Then his other qualities could not be trained when his skills grow fastest.

It also would be a tough time to train inside shot and defense of guards.
They usually have lower qualities in these categories, and need to take a whole season to train them to an acceptable range (e.g. I. shot 3->7; I. def: 4->8)
But it means I need to sacrifice the outside skills...

I think the training speed could be faster for the young players (18y-19y, not include 20y-24y), like adjusting 18-19y players pop once in their training categories in 1-1.5 weeks ( I don't know how much the youth trainer benefits, so if you know about how much the youth trainers help the training of 18-19y players, please teach me about that).

Oi mate, I want to know ur views on what if we have a feature that enable us (the manager) to set up the strategy and override the trainer decision during the live match? Such as doing substitutions, and when to call a time-out.
It's also a proposal to the BB officials since I experienced many frustrating situation when normally in real life the coach will call a timeout and substitute some players in a particular situation, but I saw that my BB Trainer do it very late when the game is already too deep out of our control and it's too late to get back and overturn the game..
