賽季55 - 更真實 更刺激!

我們先說說最重要的改變吧: 18及19歲的球員只需每周累積45分鐘上陣時間便可達成完整訓練。球隊將更容易讓年輕球員取得足夠時間訓練同時保持競爭力。

於下季到來的19歲新秀球員，能力將有機會達到強大 (9)!這次提升將加強新秀的質素，亦提升了您投資選秀點的回報。

除此之外，更真實的罰球命中率已在所有比賽中實行。正如之前所公佈，跳投能力及投籃範圍亦會對罰球命中造成影響。

應用程式的開發正持續進行，BB-Justin會在論壇、公告、社交媒體裡與大家分享最新的進展。

以色列是最新出爐的世界冠軍!在決賽中，西班牙(由cesar79執教)控制首兩節戰局，以色列(由Bill_tipesh執教)在半場前扳平比數。下半場以色列後來居上，以90-80戰勝。

B3杯賽由陈硕良帶領的''Galacticos'' 快马巨鞭贏得，而Sahand執教的I Love Tehran則未能在緊湊的決賽中奪取第5個B3冠軍獎杯，上半場雙方旗鼓相當，但快马巨鞭在下半場證明他們是較佳的一方，決賽最終比數為97-85。

B3競猜優勝者是little Guest!他將會取得一年的免費支持者!第二及第三名分別為arrowspg5及Buzzo Torto。恭喜您們!享受您的獎勵!

正如這數季中討論，我們將會把很多球隊喜愛使用較少球員的現象作一些調整，球員的體能耐力將影響比賽末段的表現，及隨年齡增長，在比賽上場越久受傷機率將增加，年紀較高的球員有更大影響，而新秀中就不太明顯。我們會在本賽季中反覆測試，在此期望各位向我們回饋最佳的改變方式。

祝新一季好運，享受遊戲!

Season 55 - Improved realism and competitiveness!

Let's start with the most important change: 18 and 19 year old's will only require 45 minutes to receive full training. This will make it easier for teams to give full weekly training to their trainees while remaining competitive.

The 19 year old draftees will, starting this, next, generation, have their top skill limit raised to proficient! More exiting 19 year old draftees should translate into an improved drafting pool and overall more value gained from investing in your draft points.

On another note, more realistic free throw percentages are now implemented in all match types. As announced, Jump Shot and Jump Range skills will also have an effect on free throws.

The app development is progressing steadily and BB-Justin will keep everyone in the loop with the latest developments as they happen, either via our forum, news posts or social media.

We have crowned our new World Champions: Israel! In a exciting final, which saw Spain (managed by cesar79) control the first two quarters, Israel (managed by Bill_tipesh) tied it just before half time. Third and fourth quarters saw Israel take over and close out the match 90-80.

The B3 crown was taken by 'Galacticos' 快马巨鞭 , managed by 陈硕良, by taking down I Love Tehran, managed by Sahand, who was unable to clinch it for the fifth time. It was a close matchup 97-85, but 快马巨鞭 showed they were the stronger team in the second half after an evenly matched first half.

The B3 predictions contest saw little Guest take the one year of free Supporter reward, followed by arrowspg5 in second and Buzzo Torto in third. Congratulations to the winners, enjoy your rewards!

As has been frequently discussed for several seasons, we would like to limit the effectiveness of short rosters, used by many teams across BuzzerBeater. We will be looking into tweaks to player stamina effects on late game performance and possibly an age based increased probability of injury for players playing full matches, where older players will be affected more, while draftees won't feel the change at all. We will be testing these changes during the season, and will be seeking your feedback on what the best solution will be.

Enjoy our new season and good luck!

歡迎來到賽季56!

在剛剛的休賽期，練們出席了一些探討有關較少使用及弱勢的比賽戰術的研討會議，這些戰術被發現比以往想像中實用。會議得出比賽將變得多元化的結論，為這些被遺忘的攻守戰術注入新生命。

改良版球員疲勞表現將近完成試驗，我們決定不把傷患與疲勞繫上，球員只會在達到疲勞界線後出現差勁的比賽表現，下滑情況將會比原來的明顯得多。您現可以在即日起的私人聯賽測試分別，我們暫定會在全明星週末時全面使用新改良。

很多領隊或已了解到B3冠軍已把規模擴大一倍! 而比賽模式將與瘋狂星期三杯賽一樣:
- 中立場地比賽
- 瑞士式比賽抽籤(共有7輪比賽)
- 128隊參賽 (最佳64隊進入淘汰賽)
- 參賽資格不變
- 我們會以世界排名 (杯賽、頂級聯賽、B3及瘋狂星期三頂級比賽)以填滿餘下席位

BB應用程式即將來臨，我們將會在試用版完成時徵求玩家。現時的螢幕截圖可於 這裡 閱讀，若有更新，我們會立刻與大家分享。/images/appScreens01.png

第55季的BB冠軍杯賽由capali執教的durma yolcu!勝出，這是繼第19季再次由土耳其球隊取得此最高榮譽。究竟他對封阻能力的喜愛會否令其他玩家動心? 他的球隊在決賽主宰，以99-87贏下由Bill_tipesh統領的Ramat-Gan Billers。

第55季的B3競猜優勝者是:來自台灣的黑血球! 而第二名是土耳其的capali(是前述的同一位!)以及希臘的The Aussie。免費的支持者功能已送到他們手上，恭喜!

U21世界錦標賽由kikeflori所率領的西班牙贏下YaMaYo領軍的立陶宛，實力相近的比賽最後以104-92完結。而本季成年隊世界冠軍賽將於波赫舉行。

願幸運之神能眷顧您們!

Welcome to Season 56!

During the offseason, the BB coaches have attended several seminars on the less used and under-performing match tactics. This means that some of the tactics are now going to become better choices than they were. The coaches agree that this could greatly benefit the variety of options used across all levels in BB, giving new life to some ignored or forgotten tactics in both offense and defense.

Our player exhaustion implementation is nearing the end of it’s testing phase. We’ve decided to drop the exhaustion related injuries and just focus on reducing player performance after the exhaustion prerequisites are reached and it triggers, which should happen much more often than before. You can test and preview the new changes in action in Private League matches starting today, with implementation for all matches planned for the AllStar break.

As most of the managers already know, our B3 competition has been doubled in size! On top of that, B3 is adopting a similar format to BBM:
- Neutral site games
- Swiss weekly draw (7 rounds)
- 128 teams (64 team bracket)
- Same qualification requirements as the current B3
- Remaining spots to reach 128 teams are filled using World Rank from the pool of Cup, D.I, B3, and BBM T.1 runner ups.

The BB app is coming along nicely, once we have an alpha to test, we will give out a call for testers. All the currently released screenshots are available here. We will be releasing more screenshots as they become available. /images/appScreens01.png

Season 55 B3 tournament was won by durma yolcu!, managed by capali, which is the second time a Turkish manager got the highest honors of BB since season 19. We wonder if his newfound love for shot blocking changes other managers’ lack of love for it. His team controlled the match and won the final game 99 - 87 over Ramat-Gan Billers of Bill_tipesh.

Season 55 B3 prediction contest winners are, in ranking order: 黑血球 from Taiwan at the top, followed by capali (again!) from Turkey and The Aussie from Greece, sharing second place. Free Supporter packages have been already awarded to the winners, congratulations!

The U21 World Championship was won by Spain, led by kikeflori over Lietuva, coached by YaMaYo. The close match ended 92-104. This season’s senior National Team championships will be held in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

May Lady Luck tip her scales towards you, our friends!

球員疲勞更新上線 (更新)

我們已從多方面研討使用較少球員名單的現象。從即日起，除友誼賽外，我們已把疲勞效果更改，這更改對大多數經理只有極低甚至沒有影響，但我們認為可以減少頂級比賽中使用較少球員的戰術。

以下是更新的概要:
-只影響超過一定年齡的球員
-只會於球員已在該場比賽大部分時間上場時發生(沒有足夠休息)
-不會影響受傷狀態發生的機會

當然，因為BuzzerBeater會持續進化成長，情況會被監察並有可能再作更新。

請注意，因使用較少球員名單於例行賽(常規賽)中並不常見。由即日起(2022年3月7日)，所有例行賽及友誼賽不會使用更新版本的球員疲勞效果。

Player exhaustion implementation (UPDATED!)

The short roster tendencies have been addressed from a variety of aspects, the latest being the implementation of the player exhaustion in all matches except for scrimmages, starting today, March 4th, 2022. While this change won't affect most managers at all or very slightly, we believe it will prevent using short rosters as effectively as they were at the top level of all competitions.

Short overview of player exhaustion:
- it only affects players over certain age
- it can happen only after a player has already played most of the match without much rest (hasn't been subbed enough)
- it does not affect injuries nor does generate them

Of course, since BB is ever evolving, we will monitor the effect and possibly tinker with it over time.

Update! Since short rosters are not a real problem during regular season, we decided to exclude, along with scrimmages, all regular season matches from the exhaustion implementation, starting now, March 7th, 2022.

歡迎來到賽季57: 應用程式Alpha版本!

不拐彎抹角了，對，我們的應用程式進入了Alpha階段!BB-Justin一直在論壇帖文中與大家分享進度，而現在已有少部分幸運者正參與測試。新任的社區經理CM-Alonso正統領Alpha測試，我們的目標是在本賽季完結前能讓各位參與Open Beta測試。

此外，我們已經在比賽引擎內作出一些小改善，包括優化1盯人-4聯防防守的效果，減低高體能的效果，以及在球員個犯纏身時減少他的侵略性。新的遊戲引擎即刻上線並應用於所有比賽中。(但請注意: 疲勞度效果仍不適用於一般季賽及友誼賽中。)

BB冠軍杯賽第56季決賽以壓哨球決出勝負!由Kozlik4執教的KS Goldena在第4節追回11分差距，最後以壓哨跳投首次拿下BB冠軍杯賽。他們在決賽戰勝第42賽季的冠軍:來自烏托邦的Folgado Lakers II(由Darkonako執教)，比分為78-77。

第56季的B3競猜優勝者是意大利的gianloco!亞軍則是同分的 bigshoes(來自香港)及Tintin(來自法國)。

最後恭賀中國(由陈硕良帶領)再次奪得世界冠軍，在第4節從德國手上拿下19分分差，最後以98-85取勝，為他們的獎杯展示櫃加上第8個世界冠軍! Charles M.執教的德國雖在第3節後段時仍有7分優勢，但最終失利。不過，德國13年來(繼第8賽季)再次在決賽亮相仍值得祝賀。

謝謝您的閱讀，祝一切順利!

Welcome to Season 57: App alpha!

Let’s not beat around the bush: yes, our app has finally entered the alpha stage! BB-Justin has been updating you with his progress via his forum posts, but now, the lucky few can try it out for themselves. The alpha testing is handled by our new Community Manager CM-Alonso, and our goal is to have an open beta available for everyone by the end of the season.

In addition to the app, we have implemented some improvements in the match engine. Including enhanced Box and One defenses, reducing the effect of higher stamina levels, and adjusting player aggressiveness when in foul trouble. The new GE is deployed and is applied to all matches starting now. (Note: The exhaustion effect is still excluded in regular season matches and scrimmages)

This season's B3 Final ended with a game winning buzzerbeater! After an insane 11 point comeback in the 4th quarter ending with the game winning jump shot, KS Goldena(managed by Kozlik4) wins their first B3 title! They took down the returning champion from season 42, Utopian team Folgado Lakers II(managed by Darkonako) 78 - 77.

The B3 prediction contest winners are in 1st place gianloco (Italia), tied for second bigshoes (Hong Kong) and Tintin (France).

Congratulations to China (coached by 陈硕良) for regaining its world champion title thanks to an extraordinary 4th quarter in which they outscored Deutschland by 19 points! Leading to a final result of 98 - 85. China added their 8th World Championship trophy to the trophy case! Tough loss for Deutschland (managed by Charles M.) after leading by 7 near the end of the 3rd quarter, but they can still celebrate their first World Championship Finals appearance since season 8 (13 years ago!).

Thank you for reading and all the best in the new season!

球員疲勞調整下季上線!

在下一季(賽季58)，疲勞效果調整將於所有聯賽中使用。

上一季，為減少使用較少出場球員的情況，我們決定把球員疲勞效果更新。但因影響球員訓練，我們最終決定暫緩實施，好讓我們尋找更佳的解決辦法。

下季起，我們會把球員疲勞在所有聯賽比賽中調整。屆時所有27歲或以上的球員將受調整影響，並只需每周上陣40分鐘便獲得完全訓練效果。

距離本賽季完結還有一段時間，我們期望收到您的回饋!

Player Exhaustion: Next Season

Starting in season 58, the exhaustion effect will be implemented in all league games.

Last season, we introduced the "Player Exhaustion Effect" which was created in order to counter short rosters. Due to concerns in training, we decided to turn off exhaustion in league games, until we could make it work better with training.

Starting next season, we will implement the exhaustion effect in all league games. All eligible players for exhaustion, 27 years old and above, will only need 40 minutes per week in order to receive full training.

There is still plenty of time left until S58 so we'll be looking for your feedback about this change!

賽季57中場公告: 聯賽合併

若您是烏托邦球隊的經理，這就不算新鮮事了。如烏托邦聯盟第一天起的做法，由玩家控制的球會將會盡可能集合。我們一直為玩家給予最大升班機會(較電腦隊優先)，此程序將會於接下來的休賽期在所有聯賽中實施。
在此，有一些要點需您注意:
1. 當然，頂級聯賽將不會受影響。
2. 其餘玩家隊伍將會被橫向移動到其他同分級聯賽，盡可能與玩家對戰。
3. 為抵消收入的減少，無論是季後賽嬴家還是填補電腦隊空缺，我們將會為所有升班球會提供升班獎勵。
4. 所有全新登錄的玩家將會於充滿電腦隊或新隊伍的聯賽中比賽以減低劣勢。我們將創建一季或以內的視為新玩家。

我們希望您能享受這個把BB比賽變得更有競爭性及有趣的措施!

Mid-season announcement: Team consolidation for all leagues!

For our Utopia users, this is nothing new and has been implemented from the start, making sure teams are grouped with as many other human controlled teams as possible. Since we already give human teams total priority in promotion (over bot teams), we decided to implement this new team placement starting this offseason!

Of course, there are some other aspects to this:
1. Top league teams won't be affected, of course.
2. Most human teams will change their current league and move laterally to new leagues of the same division - but now they will play mostly human opponents!
3. To offset possible losses of income, we will match the promotion awards for all promoted teams - no matter whether they are playoff winners or just promoted due to available empty slots!
4. Fresh and newly signed up teams will be placed in leagues populated only by bots or other such teams - to make sure they don't get overwhelmed right off the bat. We consider all teams 1 season or younger "fresh"

We hope you will enjoy this new initiative to make BB more competitive and fun!

聯賽合併:補充及澄清

我們把聯賽合併的計劃即將進行。但因計劃有一些疑慮及含糊的部份，我們在此盡可能向大家解說。

以一個第3級聯賽只有部份真人玩家的國家為例，第1級聯賽將不會有改變，而第2級聯賽仍會有由玩家控制球隊升級以填滿空檔。第3級聯賽將如下述方式合併:玩家控制球隊將會在數字較少的分組中作賽(即III.1、III.2、如此類推)，新隊伍將會前往數字較大的分組中比賽(即III.16、III.15、如此類推)，而電腦球隊則會在中間數字的組別中作賽。為確保所有玩家可以獲取一些勝利，每個組別(最低級別，此例子是第3級聯賽)將至少有4隊電腦隊。

在一些較多玩家的聯賽中，我們將以放置4隊電腦隊為先，再把其他聯賽組別合併。

我們預計將有一些意外情況發生，但我們會以盡力解決把合併完成。請期望更刺激的比賽!

Team consolidation: addendum and clarification

Our plan to consolidate all leagues is going forward, but since there were some concerns and ambiguity, we will try to clarify the process, as much as we can.

As an example, we should take a country with semi-filled division III. The top league will, of course, stay as it is. Division II also, as it will be filled completely by the newly promoted human controlled teams. Division III will be consolidated as follows: human teams go to leagues with lower numbers (III.1, III.2, etc...), while "fresh" teams go to highest available numbers (III.16, III.15, etc...) and bots fill the middle. There should be, if available, at least 4 bots per league in all cases to make sure there are at least a couple of easy wins for everyone.

In leagues where there's too many human controlled teams to make the consolidation work as described, placing "fresh" teams separately with 4 bots will take preference over placement of other human controlled teams.

We expect to have special cases and some possible niggles in some countries, but we will follow common sense and try to fix the placements as best we can, making changes as we go. Exciting times ahead!
