Battle Pass in a new format!

Not before it was standard selection with squad and practice, my bots often get kills, maybe its skill more than the game git good

well it existsā€¦ :stuck_out_tongue:

idk who would play enlisted without bots. that is main selling point of the game.

of course they serve a function. they are easy targets for players.

I think Iā€™m the definition of a Casual Player.

I main Germany and play the same BR2 squads all the time. I donā€™t even try to complete an event and have a bunch of Gold Orders that Iā€™ll probably never use. This BP change makes no difference to me.

When I stop enjoying the game Iā€™ll stop playing, but recently Iā€™ve actually been having some pretty good games.

We still donā€™t have a good BR3 TT gun in Japan

This rifle was suggested for tech tree but they shoved it on BP

Yeah we wanted it as a tech tree weapon.

@Petorian343

People were talking like this is a completely new thing, which made it look better that it isā€¦
And i didnā€™t say anything about gold profits in my final statement, i was talking generally about the whole package of BP rework been a downgrade.

Some people saw this and thought that the +100 gold per BP was NEW! Thatā€™s what i called gaslighting BS there! The wording makes it seem like itā€™s a new thing, which makes the new BPā€™s look better that they are!

Getting 100 gold per month instead of 33 (or 0 as some thought) IS an improvement, but itā€™s the ONLY objective improvement that they have (and it comes with more grind apparentlyā€¦)

The removal of player agency in choosing what they will get (the gold order BP store) alongside with the massive FOMO factor this creates simply outweigh the little benefits this BP rework gives.

Yes, you get 4 pieces with the paid pass, but half the time you donā€™t want this gun, and you now are forced to get it, instead of getting a gold order and getting something else from the previous BP you missed bc of workā€¦

So NO, i donā€™t see the improvement overallā€¦

Backlash again, for the past 2-3 changes. Why bother changing solid stuff/things people didnā€™t ask for. I partially agree on what devs trying to introduce new content in a new way, but in the same time, create more FOMO to hook people in is not nice.

Current BP

  • the system format itself is not bad at all
  • Maybe too grindy which could be reduced like what devs are introduced to us today
  • More incentive rewards in each levels: bigger silver/exp boost, unique cosmetics, face paints, weapon skins, vehicle decals, you name it. Replaces the 1000 silver, tiny little 50% exp boost.
  • More incentive repeatable rewards after completing all BP levels: appearance orders, veteran box, bigger exp boost, etc.

The new format offers less flexibility for players to choose what they want even if they paid for your content? German main have to wait for another 3 months until a weapon of their faction to appear? (if I understand correctly that each weapon season now last for 30 days) They probably skip buying BP until then, isnā€™t that mean less income for DF?

And please fix your delaying behavior when itā€™s about announcing something significant. Devs shouldā€™ve forewarn us 1 BP before changing anything. Iā€™ve planned to buy a gold Bren 100 to fill my Universal Carrier squad and a gold Royal Thai Army Ha-Go because it came from my country when I get more gold cards in the next season, now I canā€™t do that anymore.

and I think the pistol from same designer (just look recent suggestion) will end as filler in event, probably with another portrait because screw japan xD

Only thing funny is:

ā€œDf, tell me youā€™re biased without telling me youā€™re biasedā€

lol your first mistake was suggesting anything for a faction other than allies

you mean soviets.

same thing, allies and soviets have been getting pumped full with new content back to back to back to back yet still have abysmal teamsā€¦

i dont know what their goal is here, but itā€™s probably to increase ā€œbalanceā€ between factions.

maybe if they actually listened to the playerbase and implement an XP bonus based on faction population people would play the underpopulated faction.

This BP event format would be great if

  • you keep gold order cards and store (as in you still get gold orders instead of the weapon)

:ok_hand:

half the time I dont want the current BP weaponsā€¦I want the gold cards for past weapons I didnt have enough to get

I feel the same way, but - assuming you pay for premium BP (and play it through), you simply get 4 of all of them going forward. I understand that doesnā€™t solve past weapon issues, but there was not promise to put them in the store again so many that are gone could have been considered history already.

Thats the main thing for me, Im not thinking so much about ā€œremoved from storeā€ weapons. There are still dozens in the store I currently I dont have enough gold orders for.

This new system if you are busy, or having a break and miss that weapon months its gone (its basically an event weapon now). Also maybe its a weapon you dont care about. Would still much rather gold orders and the store. There still wouldnt be enough to have them all (unless you have them already/bought them)

theres also some value to having a store full of all these wonderful weapons for players to see and choose. Sort of motivation

Ahh yus
Shouldā€™ve suggested more HVARs stuff

Change M8 rocket with HVARs
Change the Calliope rockets with HVARs

Is the T34 STZ (which should only eclusively for the Stalingrad Full Access owners) golden order from Stalingrad also included?

at this point just add enola gay with little boy as an event vehicle
with 100 hvars too

its historically accurate bro
just nuke the battle and win
