If DF does another paid event

Mess Room

First off why all of a sudden, was there a necessity to charge people for event, before anyone say it was available for FTP, the token gain was a joke.

This really has tarnished all the good work the Devs have been doing, I don’t care about the people in premades running hard, I’m talking about average players, talking about players not in a clan, all I read was pure frustration on Reddit, twitter and on here.

The issue was it was highly reliant on other players knowing what to do, if they wiped you spent 30-40m constantly reviving, kiting, reviving… to get wiped again at the end, or bugged or trolled by the over eager player who ran ahead…

I spent my BP renewal gold on getting my third char, I am not even sure I want to get up to 29, I got my samurai guy now, medic and German engineer, not even sure of soviet benefit, recoil and two guns, hardly as good as medic and samurai (best imho).

The misery system is awful, lose / wipe get 20 tokens, or none! Even if you revived people all game, healed them etc, some form of xp derivation on tokens would be good, xp conversion rate would say ok you didn’t complete the mission, but you revived, ressupllied over ten time, here a 100 tokens.

The fact the event is here for another 25-26d leaves a salty taste in my mouth, I will reluctantly have to play it, it doesn’t even count as playing enlisted on forum posts!

But if DF Devs try something like this again, I will be considering giving my money to other projects which don’t use such predatory tactics. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement.

Not necessary at all… but a choice entirely along the same lines as the main game itself - you can play for free, but there’s great advantages to paying up - so you get ot make hte choise how much value it is to you.

If you don’t think it is good value than that is your choice - and it is money that enables the game to exist in the first place - if you aren’t paying then you are tho product.

I think your view is best described as unrealistic and entitled.

The game is not making enough guacamole, and the whales have already bought everything, even things that they don’t use at all.

There are no more places to make green, that’s why this gold event and the vet boxes, they need to take your coins in order to make you get more of them. I know and i have read people that bought silver coins in order to get things on those lamy boxes with percentages that are a joke.

Well said. The event itself is fun but the details can make for a poor experience.

Have to play an hour? Geez. The crumbs from a loss is annoying and having your tokens stolen and then being left behind is just outright infuriating. Then to top it, barely any silver to be gained.

I think they were hoping to implement something that encourages teamwork, and though that can happen, trolling wins the day more often than not.

So yeah, though the event can be fun, the possibility of ending a match pissed off is unexpectedly high.

Lol. This is probably the funniest thing I’ve read all year on here. No one is forcing you to play it. The rewards will not be missed. Many of us are choosing not to play it because of the time investment, boring and repetitive gameplay, and lackluster rewards. IT’S OKAY TO NOT PLAY IT.

Working on proper custimisation implementation maybe. Dont even have to start reaching into these wacky hallowen type skins…plenty of actual WW 2 skins people would love to have.

Im still waiting for Eastern Front Italian Camo and Dynamic Vehicle Camo

Yeah, this is what pissing me off so fkn much. Rather than base ingame events on some historical unique events with meaningful rewards that would reflect realities of that particular historical event. They went full for generic CRSED-like skins event.

I have no clue why the couldn’t have realized this event in CRSED instead.
I have no clue why they can’t do proper ww2 events in ww2 themed game.

This game deserved better than this. It’s pathetic. And it’s wasted potential.

Btw. I wonder if the “HA” filter will affect names of those skins as well.
(B) is most likely the worst thing they could have went for. I already hated the (D) in name for default weapons.

Kar98k (D) - thanks for ruining my immersion yet again.
The Germans used small letters in brackets to indicate the country of origin. The fact that you imitate this with a capital letter for out of universe reasons is really jarring. Why can’t you put something like that in the description inszead?
Or just make the name of the default weapon in the warehouse different in color, so that the difference is visible at a first look.

So many bad decisions.

It’s always in details. And it’s obvious DF is unable to make things like that right.

The (D) is meant for us to see, just use a normal Kar instead of a legacy starter rifle

Why should I pay for something I already own? Instead of fixing problem for everyone. You deliberately don’t want this problem to be fixed just because you don’t have problem with it.

Pure selfishness.

The difference between D and classic version is literally just selling price (maybe upgrade cost, idk).
But there’s no need to see this designation in match. It’s literally only for hangar purpose.

At least let HA filter to hide this nonsense, that’s all I want.

Btw. your solution is not even valid, because I keep seeing it in the kill log when other players use it.

Do you not have like 30 fully starred K 98s? I’ve played since Moscow CBT and I only have 3 (D) kars

I want the german guy but I’m no grinding repeative game mode for it.

It’s funny there’s not even 100% chance for you to get the guy you would grind the event for. At least until you pay.

That’s…the point, it encourages sales

Encourages? More like forcing. Especially since it depends on RNG.

Imagine being f2p, grinding the whole event while stressing about the fact there’s chance you wouldn’t get the thing you want.
If only it was at least pre-given which two squads are behind the paywall and which are not. That way people could at least decide in advance if it’s worthy for them to invest their time.
But this way, the time invested can go to waste. And there’s just added unnecessary stress factor.

It’s truly shameless from DF, predatory.

Lol you choose to complain about the name of the guns? Why did you bother getting the fg42 if you dont like it?

Wow, it is no longer allowed to complain about things that someone don’t like and could be tweaked to everyone’s liking?

I’m just saying it doesn’t make any sense. You hate the zombie mode, you hate the heroes, you hate the gun skins and now you hate the name of the gun. Why even spend your time playing something you don’t like to get something you don’t like? If the name bothers you that much you shouldn’t of gotten it in the first place. You’re essentially causing the thing that’s bothering you. And you do know you can go delete all the default bolt guns right? Again you don’t have to have them and look at the name.

What are you even talking about? It doesn’t matter if I own the items or not. I can still see those immersion breaking names in kill feed everytime other players are playing with them.
