In my opinion, having seen other games like this, one of the main reasons of disaffection is the training system.

it is not acceptable that, after waiting a week and being forced to coach only a few players, one does not even know what was the effect of this workout.

it's frustrating and many, many, many players give up.

other games allow you to train every single player in one specific skill but, more important: they let you know the level of increase that that training has produced.

I think that this is the next important feature that the developers must bring to the players (us)
+100, although I think you may be overly optimistic.

@Knecht:
I don't think so. Many people love the training as it is and I assume most of them would quit, if sthg. would change about it.
And I assume more people would rejoice than quit if they actually fixed the training system.

If you quit and look for a training system like BB's, the only one you will find is Hattrick. That's because in a way BB spun off from Hattrick. And Hattrick is declining almost as fast as BB.

How many users do all the "competitors" have?

Are the 19k BB has on the low end of the spectrum, middle pack, high end?

I doubt BB is either the largest or smallest site. What difference would it make?

Mostly froma semantics standpoint.

But on a mindset/perception standpoint, could bring about complacency or apathy etc.

basically it's just to get a better grasp of the perspective of the landscape on this issue.

I looked at powerplaymanager.com

and in that game (which has a good numbers of players) the training sistem is completely different and, for what I saw in few days, more clear and flexible.

What you.need to look at are percentages lost or gained in users.

What you need to see is any increase in users. Good luck. All you see is loss.

Similar to whats been said before and you're absolutely spot on.

Whatever anyone says about changing the game itself, the real issue is that games like BB just don't have a big draw in this day and age.
