[TF141] _xxiv123 Players 27 posts 7,665 battles Report post #1 Posted August 20, 2020 As anyone else noticed this ? for the past few weeks i suspect the game wow have been doing some tweaking with the game credits. For the past few weeks using tier 9 and 10 ,in particular despite success in battle its got a whole lot harder to earn credits for the battles and ,in fact frequently the credits have gone backwards. You might be forgiven for saying that your successes have not been sufficient but this is not the case. something wrong somewhere yes, I have more than once put a ticket in about this. The answer as you can imagine is always not the games fault but your own in so many words ,we have quote "checked and everything is in order ".unquote but , it isnt. I dropped half a million credits in a comparatively short time ,thats when i sent a ticket in, up until this credits before continued to accrue as normal but not anymore or, at least not by much at any rate so ,what have they tweaked and why ? thats my question and you know they are always meddling with one thing or another in this game and this is one of them. i say again anyone else noticed how its become twice as hard to gain credits in battle these days ? 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spoiler I beg to disagree, sir. With this performance in battle you are showing, you should not be surprised to achieve a "negative credit balance" when playing highest tiers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-TPF-] invicta2012 Players 6,382 posts 26,855 battles Report post #5 Posted August 20, 2020 Well, I'm not going to take a shot at your successes.... but I think the fact is you've played half your games in Kii and Scharnhorst. As they're premiums - and pretty decent credit earners too - then they've been bankrolling you. Higher Tiers won't make you money unless you play well, so it's a matter of working out which ships are making you money and how many games you need to play in those to keep your credit stocks buoyant before venturing out into Tier IX and X. A quick Scharn game in Co-op with a Premium Account will make me about 100k credits, frequently more, so you should always play a few of those in every game session to keep the credits coming in.

It's the same with WOT also. Tier 8 is the end point of earning credits playing in both with stock ships/tanks. After that you need be playing premium T9 ship to carry on earning (but WOT doesn't sell T9 Tanks), so your credit earning in that stop at T8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember when I played WOT and you used to earn credits better at one point playing stock tier 8 tanks. Then suddenly it seemed much harder to do. I guess they might well tweak the earnings.. as after all they want people to spend money on premium time, or a premium ship to earn credits better at T8.

In WoWs playing reasonably well still lets you stay afloat (pun not intended) in t9-10, even without premium and permanent camos. And having premium pretty much guarantees a steady influx of credits. WoT economy is MUCH harsher. Or at least it was when I played a loong time ago. But I don't think things changed that much since then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the thing though... you needing to have that premium account running when playing stock T10 ships. You might as well get a premium T9 ship for coal or money (so long as it isn't a promo ship with no extra credit earnings) and play a T9 premium all the time. No need to keep buying premium air time then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same damage to the same ships will (should?) net the same amount of credits. Also it's "do enough damage" and not "todo enoh damage". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only if you want to EARN money. If breaking even is enough for you, you just need to - depending on the ship - either play well or just not suck. You might lose money on a bad match here and there but you should be able to easily make up for that - and if you throw in a couple signals here and there, it becomes even easier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your positioning is poor, putting you in situations that allow enemy DDs to easily attack you in early stages of the game - the time when they really struggle due to many Radars and other DDs. Normally DDs only become really dangerous later on, once there's less crowd around. 2. You are too predictable, making it easy to land torps on you - and many of them at that. Even if you can't spot DDs, you can predict their possible positions and avoid being a sitting duck waiting for their torps. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
