Thank you for bringing more awareness to these issues. Hopefully these can start being addressed going forward.

Yeah this is part of an initiative for us where we're going to try to highlight more bugs in these sorts of reports for various (major) games at least since I think in general they're helpful at the end of the day for centralizing some stuff.

I agree with this way of thinking. Even if developers are not as active posting on here anymore, I know they still read and look at feedback on this site. It’s nice that these issues with the game are being highlighted from the people at this site.

This mode has so much potential if a few things can get fixed.

I just created an offline mode and turned off progressive fatigue.* *Simmed a month and everyone was fresh.* I believe this is the core problem when it comes to online leagues.

I have to strongly disagree with your assessment of progression in offline mynba. It is not balanced at all.

The base roster as 94 players rated between 80-89

This balloons to 119 after just 2 years with default progression and regression.

Add in players rated 90-99 and in 2 years you have 140 players rated 80 or better.

30 nba teams...140 players rated above an 80.... That's 4.5 players per team rated that high. This causes so many issues.

1. Roster inflation decreases talent gap. Every team is good.

2. Roster inflation means everyone wants more money meaning teams have 0 salary cap room to make trades.

3. No salary cap room means you have a free agent pool of good players going unsigned because no team can afford to sign them.

That's just after 2 years. It gets way worse each year after.


I have spent hours testing and have found 0 way to create balance years down the line. For me, that's the biggest issue. I made a video on it if anyone is curious.

But seriously. Go simulate a few years and look at the ratings of players.

I think in the report we say progression is probably goofed in the opposite direction offline.

Glad I checked the forums before starting my league.

How are some of these things not found by the devs prior to release.

The price of games should decrease if we are paying to be beta testers for them.
