anonym_ntfKigmJ0k9e Players 138 posts Report post #4 Posted February 25, 2022 I understand what you mean, but I support selling ships for money. I would rather buy a steel ship that I want, then wait a whole eternity to gather enough steel. Some people are willing to spend their money on this game and I don't see anything wrong with that. Yes, potato player can buy a Tier 10 ship, but then again I've seen many potatoes in regular Tier 10 ships that don't know how to play, they even don't know the basics. And MM is heavily unbalanced anyway. So if potato player buy Tier 10 ship that will affect you in a way how lucky or unlucky you are with MM. This game is all about "luck", it's like a lottery. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[GR8] RazorBlade72 [GR8] Players 174 posts 9,466 battles Report post #7 Posted February 25, 2022 It seems normal to me that if you pay for something that you get benefits. You can also buy coal with containers if you would like to do that. If you buy special flags with containers then getting to 2 million Free XP is also very simple. You can also be lucky and get a Tier X ship out of container on day one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making horrible monetisation decisions is also what makes games worse and eventually kills them. It might only cause a slow decline but that doesn't make it good. Also, WG makes hundreds of millions each year so this level of greed is entirely unnecessary. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean RB ships have always been availiable for dubs. They will even make it easier to research a line over and over again with next patch. What was it? 25exp/dub? You might as well put a dub price on them and spare the whales the game of sitting in the techtree-menu for hours. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[I-J-N] Karasu_Browarszky [I-J-N] Players 13,025 posts Report post #15 Posted February 25, 2022 Everything in the game, in terms of resources (and I count ships as resources rather than content NB), has to have a set price. It's better if the pricing is transparent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steel or RB ships for mega loads of dubs ? I fail to understand why people complain that the game is financed by whales who pays for usually free stuff, that you got yourself for free. Yes they didn't had to grind anything, but they pay for the server without WG having to release premium that you just can't get without paying. Basically the game is free for you, you have access to the same content, and you also have the choice to pay like them to get the ship without the grind if you want. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, to be honest I even think that a lot of old players hinder the game in growing. Let me put it mildly, new players are not always welcomed in a rather warm way in this game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True 15 minutes ago, SV_Kompresor said: It's good for business (short term at least) but bad for the game longterm. True I still think they should keep tier 10 and tier 9 out of the shop. Ok, a new guy buys a tier 10 and fails completely in say 10 games before he gives up, he still will cause a load of anger, etc. for his 110 team mates in these 10 games I it worth it for WG. ? As a product the quality for sure is suffering from this and the chance of an experienced player recommending the game to a friend is for sure less (most likely 0) I dunno, myself I rather go for quality so to me it doesn´t make sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HKIWS] Callidous Players 68 posts Report post #24 Posted February 25, 2022 You must be new to the game. If there is a possibility to include a cash grab, it's there. Of course, it's a free to play game and they have to make the money somewhere. It's our responsibility to decide whether we're going to spend ungodly amounts of money for pixels (Personally, I've decided to stop putting money in the game when they announced jet planes, the final of many nails in the coffin). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Camperdown Players 2,501 posts 17,258 battles Report post #25 Posted February 25, 2022 It does seem as if the game has entered a new phase, where any pretence of quality has been dropped and it is just blatantly about selling stuff. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
