Just a question but why wouldn't they get to keep the stadium or cash. Pro and AAA teams restart all the time and drop back down to cap 14 but get to keep the stadium and cash. What is the difference?

They shouldn't be able to either... it's one of those loopholes that leads to collusion or CPU cash farming and then restarting with an advantage.

Actually they should be able to keep what they already have, they just shouldn't sell any more tickets at those low levels. It doesn't make any sense to take away things teams already earned legitimately, especially if you also want those teams to be at levels appropriate for their roster instead of losing 255-0 in every game.

I agree.

If the Detroit Lions said, "you know what, team ownership is done playing at the NFL level and have decided to invest heavily in a team of talented ten year olds, but we expect season tickets holders will be just as excited about the new direction we are taking the team." I suspect that you wouldn't be able to sell out a single section of that stadium... hell, at NFL prices you wouldn't sell out a single row.

But the problem is that they will still have their stadium fully developped. IRL the stadium would degrade and require upkeep costs. In the sim, even if you limit the output of the stadium the fact remains that you wouldn't need to spend any more money on it.

Yea I agree. If my team makes it all the way up to AAA/Pro or whatever then do to massive retirements we need to retool. I plan on starting over at cap14 with our current agents new players, current stadium and cash. If they now tell us we need to give up our cash/stadium to some degree then screw that. I will leave my team in whatever level it is and fill it with CPU players until I can get my players back up to that level.

I am fine with some form of upkeep costs. I would be even more for team owned EQ because TBH. In real life the players DO NOT own their EQ. So why should they in this game, seems a bit foolish.

Make the team cough over money for EQ and own it themselves.

IRL the players cleats don't give them +1 Sticky Hands either. This is a sim and if they don't fix the economics of the in game system, people are going to continue to stack their teams with shitty players to earn money for when they need it later.
