We are currently facing a slow decline in users and I do believe one of the reason of that is the complexity of the game. I do not mean the literal meaning of being complex, what I mean is there is a lot of things kept secret from the managers making it complex in a bad way.

I am playing other manager games of other sports and two of them are very open in some ways. One is very open in its computation while the other one is that the skills rating are not hidden. I observe in this two other general manager games that it is more easy to play them and more chillax. They let you focus on competing.

While here in BB, we have a lot more to think off. Which makes it more stressful to play. So I believe other than making changes and fixing some problems, it is also time for BB to open up things that they hide from us.

Maybe...

1. The Hidden Skills?
2. Deeper Explanation of the Engines? or Tactics?
3. Computation of Training?
4. Explanation of the Use of the Skills?
5. Computation of the Salary?
6. Etc.

I believe even just one of that will help already.

To my mind that kind of 'secret processes' make the game even better; if we all know how exactly the engines work there wont be that point of exciting randomness and we'll have discussion topics no more ;)

If you mean visible subskills, I would hate that option. I like the current system, including cross training, where you can't say for sure when will your trainee pop, but you still have rough estimation.

I play basketsim, and the precise skill values there make it so robotic. I guess it's a personal preference, but I simply don't like their system.

not entirely the entire process.. but a little bit more to it than what they are telling right now.
