thursday april 8 - 18:02 I do like Kupus' idea of the buildings not lasting forever.
Maybe one way to achieve this is for the maintenance cost of buildings to increase every season until it becomes unmanageable, and this could be reset to the intial cost by paying for a refurbishment or choose to downgrade if the costs are unaffordable. This would mirror real life.
But it doesn't really deal with the issue that was raised, which is how to make promotion more attractive and relegation something to be avoided?
So that means there has to be a greater financial incentive. What the game calls 'TV revenue' is more like league prize money. This could be renamed and TV rights added as an extra.
I think there needs to be other incentives too. Maybe each promotion to a new level could give increases to the player training rate, youth academy, popularity and attendances. Relegation would do the opposite.
It has to be enough of an incentive that everyone always wants to be promoted.
