Dear comrade @Keofox

@Keofox we all are extremely greatful about old premium, old event, and old gold orders coming back, the proposed method concerns me. It sounds like the proposed “technology box” given to “the most active users during the promotion” is a somehow worse system than the War Thunder loot crate gambling.

What does promotion mean? Do we the players have to promote the game? That would make these weapons completely unobtainable to newer players and probably everyone else, also even for the small ammout of players able to get 1 attempt at the box, what if they don’t get the weapon they were hoping for? For instance a noob that struggled very hard to become one of the top users of the promotion gets one shot at the crate, opens and receives a Wellrod, deletes game.

I think the system should work like how the community suggested, i.e at the end of each battle pass, you’d receive a voucher for a past gold order, and at the end of each major event, you’d receive a voucher for a past event squad.

Anyways I hope the community suggested way is implemented because the proposed way is very troubling to me.

I would take him saying promotion, as Event?

Loot boxes are a toxic system that are effectively gambling.

But this one you have to work for it, (the most active ones), before you get chance to gamble

Event/BP

As for the rest, yes this is a crappy WT loot crate that you will open 500 times getting Appearance Orders, Upgrade Orders, and ES. Then after that you might get an old GO Weapon or Event Weapon

We can only pray, but maybe we get to pick what we receive from the box!

Hmm i cant see them doing it like that at all,
be that just roll and stops on something, as suggested above, and chances of getting it be like 0.01% anyway.

“Mmmh. The random loot boxes, is a predatory system that is universally hated by everyone.”

“Let’s release that very feature after Steam!”

:expressionless:

I hope they’re not THAT low.

Keo doesn’t really have a say I believe. Isn’t he just the community big boss?

Isn’t he the lead developer?

It depends… withaut a piety sistem is a ewww, but if after 80 pull you dont get the squad, the 81 pull you are forced to get the squad because of the piety system

Assuming it’s like war thunder, the world will end by the time you get 10 tries…

I think that you would get one of those boxes by fully completing a big event (all stages), like the APC one we just had.

I would prefer something like a token with which you can choose an event squad/vehicle from a certain selection of the old event squads rather than it be luck based and get duplicates.

Even with pity system it’s “ewww”.

Because we all know it’s pure gambling gacha, and well known to be really predatory and incite ppl to spend MORE…
It’s just…

A system like this is nauseating. Df will not gain any supporters by implementing something like this :confused:

Consider using random event squad boxes as limited-time promotions
About 30 USD each
Duplicate squads converted into golden tickets
This will become a new source of leeks

30 USD for 1 random squad? Seriously?
