Playing in Overseas Leagues

Brnwsbucksfannc · 04-03-2015, 11:56 AM

I have been playing OOTP for about 3 years and decided this year to try a variation with a game, I am going to stay overseas until I become an established manager.

I have started out in Brisbane, Australia and it is quite a bit different from playing with an American team.

I am curious what kinds of experience others have with overseas leagues. Do most jump back to the US as soon as possible or do you stay overseas?

A couple of differences I have found is the budgets are much smaller (93K for player salaries) and the season is played over the winter months. What other kinds of differences have people found?

Nice start, I am 8-5 and the owner is pleased so far, that is always a good sign.

Does your reputation carry over when transfering from an Australian league to an American league?

I really hope so. Hopefully I can get offered a job in the US after a season or 2 in Australia.

I may sim the rest of the season really quick to find out. I will let you know as soon as I find out

Yea it carries over and TBH it raises too fast when successful considering the level of league you are managing at.
