What size arena do new users get? I just added a few courtside/luxury boxes to see how they sell, along with raising prices on the lower end seats. Interested to see how the seat pricing changes effect attendance (hopefully not at all!)

JuicePats, what you are saying is completely different from what me and domenico are saying. You invested on the stadium when the prices were cheaper, that's why your arena suffered reductions, to make it fair to the people starting off after you and that will have to pay more to make the same changes you did. So that's fine.

The problem is that people (like me and domenico) that did not take advantage of the fact that the prices to build were cheaper (cause we didn't know they were going to be increased) and still sufferred the same punishment that the people (like you) that built have.

So now the new users start off with a stadium that is better then ours (mine and domenico's, and many others). That is clearly and completely not fair.

Either the people that didn't build anything before have their stadium's converted back to 4500-450-50-0 (which still won't cover the huge amopunt of money they lost in all the games played, but at least is a start) or the new users have to start with a 4950-50-0-0 stadium.

Best bet would be to change everyone who hasn't upgraded to 4500-450-50-0. Though you say that wouldn't cover the huge amount of money lost...what do you mean? If you mean the difference in income between your arena and the new users, it amounts to 2k-3k at the most if you sellout. I did upgrade before the change and I'm losing about 20k per game now(if ticket prices were the same) with the new seats on top of the upgrade cost.

no, I met all the games my team played with the 4950-50-0-0, which included all the playoffs on the league. But I don't expect that problem to be solved. it's in the past. Forget it.

What I think now is that the current situation is unsustainable. New teams have a better arena then me and there is no plausible reason for such thing.

I agree with you, it should really be changed.

i agree.. i think we will upgrade the old teams to the arena new users get ASAP. i know you can't get that money back... but i'm afraid there is nothing to be done.. we really did have to redo the arena economy, and if we left it the old way you'd be the one with the giant advantage... there are costs to being an early adopter ;) but don't worry.. there will be benefits too (besides having a headstart to build a better team)

I have to agree 100% with you, is not fair that older users start with a worst Arena than newer users, we all should get the 4500-450-50-0 arena

I understand. If the arena of the people that never upgraded in the first season will go back to 4500-450-50-0 that's already acceptable and makes things fair again from now on.

Thanks for understanding the problem.

When you do make the changes for old users any idea what will happen in my situation. I have the 4950-50-0-0, and just purchased a small amount of courtside seats (18) and luxury boxes (2). Any idea what my stadium would look like after the change?

My point is, I'd hate to give up getting 4500-450-50-0 cause I started a minor upgrade yesterday.

I'd think the database update would go seat type by seat type and make each of the seats equal to the maximum of the current seats compared to the 4500, 450, 50, 0 numbers...

so you would get... 4950,450,50(+19),0(+2) the + meaning you'd still get the bump when your current renovation was complete.. assuming we get this done before the renovation is complete... otherwise you'd get 4950,450,50,2...
