That's not fun to me when I can't even improve my team and just wait to be relegated but I don't see the fun in buying a team with real money either. Maybe this mode just isn't for me.
For those of you that are spending money, thanks for supporting OOTP development and ensuring we'll get to OOTP 30. I'll look forward to the continued improvements in solo/online leagues mode even if I never touch this mode in 20.

This is my experience, too (though at the Diamond level). I spent a few bucks, but not much, since I figured I’d wait for 20 to pony up a larger sum. To state the obvious: people wouldn’t be pouring hundreds of dollars into PT if it didn’t give them a competitive advantage. I believe Markus said that just 5% of users spend money; the other 95% prefer F2P. So, if my math is correct, 9,500 of the 10,000 teams are F2P. But when you look at the teams that enjoy success at the Diamond or Perfect levels, there’s no doubt the vast majority come from the 500 P2P teams. I wish my team was more competitive. Regardless, though, I find it all very interesting.
