Hi,
I wanted to share some feedback about the current battlepass rewards. In my opinion, it would be much better to bring back the old system where for example we can get:
- 2 Gold Orders for weapons
- 2 Gold Orders for soldiers
- 1 Gold Order for a vehicle
- Also 900 gold back
Instead of the current system where we get 4 pre-selected weapons , 2 pre-selected soldiers, 1 airplane, and 1 tank skin.
The main problems with the current system are:
- The pre-selected weapons often don’t make sense. Sometimes they are weaker than regular tech tree weapons, or they are on wrong BR. Also a BR 2 weapon isn’t useful for a player who mostly plays at BR 5.
- Also, a pre-selected weapon may be for a nation the player doesn’t play. With Gold Orders, players could pick whatever fits their playstyle and nation.
- Same issue with the soldiers. Pre-selected soldiers might be from the wrong nation or the wrong class, making them useless for some players. With Gold Orders, we could choose the soldier we actually want.
- The pre-selected airplane might also be for the wrong nation or just not interesting for some players.
- And the tank skins are often for weaker variants of tanks that many people don’t even use.
Gold Orders gave players freedom of choice, which made battlepass rewards much more valuable. Right now, it feels like you’re forced to take things you don’t need.
Please consider bringing back the old system or at least giving players a choice between taking a gold orders or the pre-selected reward.
Thank you for reading.

“Freedom of choice” being 1-3 gold order guns every 90 days. I’d rather just have everything perpetually. Because if this was the current system, we’d still have the Solothurn, Winchester, Koko in the BP shop, but only get the 1-3 Gold Orders so it’s worthless regardless. Instead I just get everything from when I bought the BP into infinity (or if the system changes) as long as I save my 900 gold I get from the BP
Player imposed restrictions (“I don’t play that faction” or “I don’t play that BR”) is not a valid reason to change anything. The devs should not cater to this mindset. It is important they spread items around across factions and BRs.

You will still get 900 gold back but with gold orders.
I don’t agree. The problem is that you create artificial scarcity. With the gold order system i could buy older weapons that were not available. New players therefore don’t get access to anything anymore. And even as a veteran player, i am going on holiday this summer so I am missing a lot of BP’s, what if a weapon is introduced to the BP that I like? Than I have played for months not getting anything i am interested in only to miss the weapon i want. Thats a shame I think. The solution would have been to add more gold orders in the BP instead of removing choice.

They’ve already been bringing back old GOs in events. The BP takes less than 9 days to earn in its entirety between the increased stages, rank ups, and weekly challenges. I literally spent 19 days in the desert doing training last month and a week at the beach without playing and still got all my BP rewards without buying any tiers.
The choice was so absurdly limited that in 3 years of playing, I still didn’t have 1/3 of the guns I wanted before they dropped the sale, at which point I just bought them with gold.

Yep, old BP system was superior in every possible way.
Now I can’t even take a month off from the game. I don’t want to miss out on stuff. Truly FOMO of strongest caliber.

I mean the obvious solution there is to up it to 4 GO’s for weapons per BP then instead of 4 of a preset weapon. I know for one, Id be dropping the KoKo this time to get something different, ideally not a clone of a TT weapon.
