Hello there, as a player since season 11, I would like to share some suggestions that could potentially develop this amazing basketball game further!
First of all, you are doing a great job with the development of the app and the game itself. Here are some suggestions that could possibly help both you and us as players:
Offseason Training Camp: Teams would have the possibility to send their whole squad to a "training camp" before the season. In the week between the draft and the first league match, clubs could have an extra training session as a "training camp" for extra money. All players would have the opportunity to make a "pop" in a specific training session, which would not change the players' game shape.
Old Players as Coaches: Players who are old and no longer useful in our rosters could be retired and used as head coaches, based on their player experience skill. Additionally, a new feature for coaches could be added that provides ability boosts. For example, a coach could give a 10% boost in shooting or outside defense, etc.
More Awards: Introduce more awards such as Rookie of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, and 6th Man of the Year etc..
All-Star Weekend Benefits: All-Star Weekend should offer something special for players who played in the All-Star game, like a "pop" in experience. Winners of the 3-point shootout could receive a "pop" in jump shot range or jump shot itself.
Dynamic In-Game Tactics: It would be a game changer if you could change your tactics at halftime or after each quarter while being online and watching the match live. This would motivate players to get online and watch the game while analyzing the opponent. Alternatively, you could adjust the tactics before the game with the coach, who would then change the tactics every quarter or at halftime.
Youth Team: Similar to the Utopia League, create a youth league with the same teams as the main team in the main league, for players under 21 years old or only 18. They would be able to train and "pop" every week. These young players could be generated every season, or there could be only rookies' teams. Depending on your level of facilities, league, team rank, and staff, their skills would be based on these factors. You could sign them for your main team or continue developing them in the youth team with lower chances of "pops".
Tell me what do you think of these ideas. I created a poll in this thread (323628.1) if you can have a look would be great!
Thank you for considering these suggestions and for your future feedbacks !
