Great point......I think the only times anybody's salary should go up in BB is during the offseason processing. Instead of 2% a week just make it 10% during the offseason. 80K level 7 trainer turns into an 88K level 7 trainer the following year.


I'm not sure what the exact amount should be, but not having it hit every single week is good. I just don't know if pushing them all to the same time would be good for the marketplace (though, of course, the health of the coach market is a whole different discussion altogether).

I'd almost rather see a situation where the salary is frozen for 4 weeks or so, and then it bumps up 5% or so every four weeks after that. Something to not have all the staff on the same update cycle, at least.

The math on when to change staff isn't too hard, actually. Calculate the savings with a new staff you bid on per week. Then add up the cost of firing your current guy (1 week salary) and the cost of buying the new guy, and divide by the per week savings. Then you know how long it will take for you to end up saving money (payback period).

For instance, your new trainer saves you 5K per week in salary. Your old trainer cost 20K to fire, and you won the bid for 10K. So that's 30/5 = 6.

So after 6 weeks, you are going to be saving money for as long as it takes the new guy to reach the salary of the guy you got rid of. And that's probably at least one season, so you save money for several weeks at least.

I think if you do that math and what you're spending takes more than a season to pay dividends, it's too high. By the end of that season, the weekly raises have pushed a guy beyond his value anyway.

I won't overpay for staff, nor will I let guys stay so long that they are way overpaid for what they do.

Also....I think a better question or discussion to have is why is that Staff members salary increases 2% of every week...but their ability to peform their job stays the same?


Not so fast like in BB, but in real life is the same... you get a job with a salary and 20 years after your salary is x2 or more... (now here in europe we are lossing these rights), and your habilities are maybe worse... because you are older, and can´t go so fast...

But actually, if this increase of salary desapear, the staff market dies...

Maybe being able to trade staff like players might be a solution?

I don't think a lot are asking for the salary to stay the same and kill that market. I think they saying if players can get better and cost more then why cant the staff, this would actually help teams because they can get guys worth keeping long term.

I would like to see a feature where price are more flex-able to the managers. Let say a trainer has been on the market for 3 season straight he is hurting for a job instead of taking 45K week he'll take 10K. this would lead to alot trying bid on him. it would bring salary back up.

in BB there's constant deflation, not inflation. so expenses are going up but revenues are generally not and assets are worth less.

the staff market should die, it was better before then introduced the change.

I suppose they could change the way the staff market/weekly salary increase system works.
The game would certainly be a tad simpler if you didn't have to consider the ever increasing staff salaries.

However, I've always just considered it another mathematical challenge of the way BB is set up, along with game shape, enthusiasm, training minutes, etc... and that's part of what makes this game so fun to play.
