Oh I'm actually quite pleased with this. My supporter package ends here soon and now I feel a little less guilty about making the purchase here soon! Good job BB!

Imho, people shouldn't expect big change during the season, especially if it affects gameplay. Big changes will likely happen at the start of a season and hopefully will be annouced beforehand to let managers time to anticipate and adapt with their teams.

Imho people wouldn't have expected a major development mid season except for one being announced beforehand.

Perhaps I'd be better off saying "Imho we shouldn't take BB's comments seriously."

I have always equated getting supporter to giving money to PBS or NPR. the private leagues and ability to get a 2nd team are the equivalent of the Prairie Home Companion coffee mug or the best of Lawrence Welk DVD collection you get for donating. And I guess it is benevolent of the BB management to allow the countries with a perceived economic issue to have for a lower donation figure that Thistle and Shamrock CD collection.





But if we are going to do this let's go a step further and offer Platinum supporter or whatever you want to call it. All things considered is often underwritten by the Bill and Melinda gates foundation. How about the Hrudey foundation? Instead of the Pugh Charitable Trust how about the WARDO and Wolph trust?

Don, tell us what our super duper supporters will get for blasting their piggy bank with a howlitzer?

Thanks Wink, our supporters get for their comfort and convenience the ability to start a private league, or maybe a private cup or tourney and invite whomever they please. Or maybe give those who are all in the ability to schedule extra games under private league settings if having six games a week is not enough already.

Oh, and I've been saying this for years, just go ahead and force feed commercials at proper intervals on the rank and file who follow their charges night in night out. Want a commercial free viewing experience? https://youtu.be/DCgRO4CCTEY

Not sure why everyone's hating this. A vast majority of people who buy Supporter will save money now. If your country is considered richer, well there's no change for you guys but it's not a negative change either.

As an American, I'll happily bank that extra $10 and go buy a couple beers with the savings (if I choose to buy Supporter in the future)!

What's crazy to me is we went quite awhile with nothing done with the game and then just this season you see they are actively trying to help this game and yet the majority is still complaining.

Ya'll realize you're all complaining about discounts and whether or not the terminology for "major" applies to this? Just be thankful they are doing something, this IS a good update. I would personally be more upset if we had a "major" update to the GE or training mid season.

Crazy how entitled you all look for a game that doesn't even charge you lol.

Agreed and I hope you weren't being serious and asking me to help for searching for your own future stars on your team..

definitely lol

Lmfao yeah that's why I deleted it.

Haters gonna hate.

It IS a major development as it changes something to the game for all players except for the players from 8 (mostly small) countries.

Also, it is called 'supporter'. Unlike in many games where paying gives you an advantage over other players, this is a way to support the developers and show your appreciation for the only serious basketball management game out there. It makes sense you're not going to ask someone to pay a month's worth of food just to show appreciation.

Despite the tiers being questionable (good BB that you're willing to consider changes), this is a great development! And if you want more and quicker development, go buy supporter for 10 people who don't have supporter. Development takes time and/or money and this is in essence a free game.

Yes, that is said very educational about this game.
