The idea here would be a event that awards event tokens, usable to obtain any event squad/weapon that is not recent.
Miss a event squad/weapon that was a few months back? Do the current event get a token, and go to the event shop to buy the squad/item you want.
Obviously this would not apply to all event squads/items, but it would be a way for a few more people to collect event squads and items that they missed out on because of work, time away from the game, lack of Internet, etc.
Plan would be:
Event squads released the previous year or two
2-4 tokens for the event, letting you choose whatever squads or items you want for any nation
6-8 squads per nation
Event weapons included within the last 6 months
This event would run once a year, changing out items every year.
Well, they could distinguish squads which people got from event and squads from shop by adding a decorator in kill chat. Like they did with Pz4 from Stalingrad. Something like: Arkhipich 13 (event) someone
Or maybe give the OG event squads extra 10% more XP compared from ones in āevent shopā, because I think people who grinded events back then should be kinda praised.
like i said before
They are a kind of souvenir
From a personal perspective
I donāt want to see these souvenirs lose their commemorative value
Tokens are of no use to veteran players who have been playing for a long time
Because they can always keep up with most activities
Then old players have no reason to participate in the event and no sense of involvement.
This is not fair to veteran players
I think the best way is to become a paid project
If you really want to sell or use the box to draw a lottery
I hope they make a distinction somewhere
in addition
Hopefully they wonāt become as expensive as the squads sold in China
According to some peopleās information
Individual weapons for $13 each
Purchase a regular squad for $55
Buy Japanese paratroopers for $137
Agreed, if it were a REAL gun that was rare, that would be one thing. But I doubt how valuable a video game gun actually is. To be honest, if it is not available, then as a video game gun it is absolutely worthless.
the problem with event squads being āspecialā is when they fill a role that no other squad fills.
things like the Sd.Kfz.251/7 that basically is an extra ātankā-class vehicle, or paratroopers, or these new rocket-artillery⦠or the A6M3 for the Japanese, which was a baffling decision given that the Japanese lack many aircraft compared to everyone else.
Assault engineers themselves are kind of a stretch, but to a somewhat lesser extentā¦
Iād want there to be more ārerunā events, with additional rewards (either special weapons, or Gold Orders that are useful to pick up, possibly in place of getting squads if you already have them)ā¦
FOMO pressure must be carefully balanced, too much of it and people will just stop playing because āI canāt keep upā.
Event squads and paid squads only have the advantages of main weapons and engineers.
However, their flexibility and anti-tank capabilities are much lower than those of ordinary squads.
The same goes for Team Rocket.
Rather than handing over the hope of anti-tank to the rocket rain full of restrictions,
It is better to let the 100 penetration rocket launcher help you snipe most of the early and mid-term tanks.
paratrooper?
The total holding rate of players will greatly affect the battlefield
I donāt really want to see the Tunisian nightmare happen again.
Or there are paratroopers dropping from the sky all the time to put pressure on the defenders.
The threat from the artillery truck itself is not as high as you think.
Even a thrown weapon can kill the passengers inside
And his armor is pretty weak
Even machine guns, tanks or anti-tank rifles can penetrate from a long distance
We know that there is a way coming ⦠but no details beyond that:
That being said, I am a supporter of a legacy shop, but there are some caveats.
A): There should be at least a 6-12 month period before an event squad/legacy item enters the shop (limited time exclusivity to those that completed the event).
B): It should not be ONLY paid for ⦠there should be a way to obtain them without paying. Even if its a bonus at the end of an event for completing EVERY day or something.
C): The event shop doesnāt just give you the product, but instead gives you an instance of the event (where applicable) that you then have to grind just as the original event. In the case you have some of the event but not all, you would get a random gold order in its place for that reward (for example if you have the 1st squad in an event but not the 2nd, the 1st squad slot in the event would reward a gold order instead of a duplicate). If you fail to complete, you can rebuy the event access later ⦠once all major rewards are obtained, that event is no longer āre-activatableā)
D): You should only be able to activate 1 legacy event at a time.
E): In addition to being able to activate an event, you should also be able to get legacy gold orders, twitch drops, and legacy squads within the shop (basically anything that used to be available but isnt currently, should be available within it ⦠to include legacy premiums (still paying with $$ or Enlisted Gold for the premiums).
F): Everything within the shop would require a number of āLegacy Tokensā earnable and buyable ⦠in addition to any premium costs (as mentioned, legacy premiums that are no longer available | Note: The ONLY squads not obtainable anymore should be the founder packs).
