[-DFD-] Psychological_Warfare [-DFD-] Alpha Tester 784 posts 17,553 battles Report post #2 Posted February 14 The premium end bonus is just a laughable 10k research bureau points, so thats a big no no. Higher tier premium ships are fine, but resources that can be obtained for free by playing? As trashy as paying for an early access to a new upcoming research line, 100% useless. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SM0KE] Verblonde Players 9,787 posts 20,656 battles Report post #3 Posted February 14 Nope: Poor final reward. Patch also introduces a new line of submarines, so I'll be playing much less than I would otherwise. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In less than 3 months we have a new "tradition" Submarines are poorly implemented in the game, dishing out lootboxes with tokens where u possibly can get early access to a sub is hardly a reward, more like punishment I clicked "yes to premium battlepass" but I am not sure Premium reward 10k RB points is what it is.. so it´s like 6k dubs for 10k RB points, I dunno 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SHAD] Miscommunication_dept Players 5,512 posts 24,438 battles Report post #8 Posted February 14 1650(with bonus) steel for 2500 doubloons. That's enough incentive for me right now. That said, I bought the Austin in December with my last steel, I now have near 24k and nothing I want to spend it on so perhaps I shouldn't be spending on steel.

Farheim Players 182 posts 6,723 battles Report post #9 Posted February 14 No. While RP is arguably the hardest resource to grind, 10k isn't much. Well it is actually, but in order to get a decent ship like Ohio you gotta grind 60k plus, so you get like 1/6 of it and you HAVE to grind the rest. Because if you don't - pfft, you're getting sweet nothing of value. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you think they are worth it, then that's good, but if you step back and look at it objectively, you can't say WG in game resources are good value when they are worthless outside this game as you have nothing to compare them to. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[AWSL] ReDiR20 Players 473 posts 4,975 battles Report post #15 Posted February 14 RB points is a resource that seems to be the hardest to earn, since I'm using mostly grey and green boosters. So 10k plus other rewards makes it a must get this time. Previous pass with Nebraska was clearly worse 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Others are up to the 50k to 60k range. So 10k is only a 1/4 to 1/6 of a RB ship. That's quiet bad in my opinion (seeing only the final reward in the BP). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a slow old business if you don't have lots of Free XP or don't want to play the game with the X2 multipliers, so boosting the rate of progress is something people might pay for. It is worth saying that RB ships can be a bit niche, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's like 700k free xp, that can only be used for RB ships and upgrades. Along with another 2k RB, 2k steel and 30-40k coal is a great deal for 2500 dubs 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 4,158 posts 25,223 battles Report post #20 Posted February 14 Probably not. Whilst I admit the extra RB points would be useful the price seems a bit high for only 10,000 points (I know you get other rewards but they are not that much of an incentive for me).

[EZKIL] Sir_Sinksalot Players 1,510 posts 8,243 battles Report post #22 Posted February 14 I feel the devs have been implementing a potentially fatal downward spiral of additions which are supposed to stimulate interest and revenue from within the players base are imho sadly A. Examples of pay to win i.e. the ability to simply buy chunky amounts of resources that could never be bought before such as coal, RB points and even Steel. B. More subs and CVs, both of which are literally cancerous to positive and balanced gameplay. The sort of broken bs that makes a player feel like there's no point even playing when they fall victim to focusing from such class that can't be countered by that player on the receiving end. C. Repeated disrespect to their customers/players which leads to a complete lack of confidence in this game as a place to invest money for a hobby etc. The developers send out surveys regularly where undoubtedly the vast majority reported a negative experience playing against subs and aircraft and many undoubtedly outlined it's something they never wanted or hoped to see in this game when they downloaded it. But why send out these surveys if they ultimately don't give a flying f about what the majority of the playerbase/customers think, believe players are wrong "based on our studies we know better than players!" and will do whatever the hell you want anyway. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BYOB] Aragathor Players 7,047 posts 32,314 battles Report post #23 Posted February 14 The final reward is paltry. So I'm tending towards a hard no. If the BP is long, then I might get it for the extra red boosters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
