Make the OD on higher lvls even more expensive so you cant get 20 OD with 150k

I know what you're trying to say, but changing the GE is not an easy job...

(1) make 3 pt-shots a little bit more likely to go in

this

Or just simple don't touch the engine, make an easy change, big OD = big salary.

3 pointers just don't work, even in lower series
in the last 15 seasons, i played in II and III and my season % ranges between 18% and 31%
it's not like all my opponents had 18+ OD on their players

And its not like your guard had 20-15 JS JR right?
Anyway I agree with you, they need to find a way to fix the bad outside shooting percents.

Tough question...

I understand why they want to make changes - it's a bit off balance at the moment and changes are needed to make progression for the game, so I support that.

The concept of how to do that - decrease something, increase something, some combination - I'm not sure what would be the right approach, I am sure there are insane amount of data and simulation capabilities which can give the right answer to the question.

BUT, what I absolutely do not agree with to release something in a rushed pace like this - yeah we will do something in s50, will release it to some games for testing and live from s51 - that's disrespectful to the managers who built teams consciously... at least 1-2 seasons of notice would be expected.

The app question - in my view that's a convenience thing - but a very popular and demanded one from the community for sure.

I think I would do the following:
1. Complete dev for the engine, implement into private leagues and scrimmages for testing - but do not implement in s51, only in s52 or s53.
2. Do the app and release it as soon as you have it ready.

I agree on that mate, I hate it too...

Are you aware that you are contradicting yourself? On one hand you argue that impactful changes are coming too fast, but then you give an example how a change has had little impact.

If you ask me, there has been progress, but also still a way to go. That shows me that the changes that are being made are not too big all at once to limit the impact, which shows respect.

You guys on the other hand, don't seem to have a lot of respect for someone who puts in all the effort. To judge without having sufficient information is one of the most disrespectful things one can do if you ask me.
