More squad slots for f2p

With the proliferation of actually useful squad types nowadays I’m starting to feel that f2p people are getting to a really bleh spot.

I have 9 to 10 slots unlocked and it already feels like I can’t use all the tools I’d like.

You need engineers, you need AT soldiers, you need some form of assault squad. (And there go your 3 basic slots already) You want to bring some vehicles. You kinda need an APC. Gorillaz also make a huge difference. There are paratroopers that sometimes really help.
There are several other squad types I don’t touch, even with upgraded slots…

I think game needs ability to unlock a few slots just by playing. Personally I’d put them as research into the tech tree for each nation, let’s say one around T2, one around T4 and one around T5.
I’d make them work just like any other unlock does - first you get the XP for it, then you pay with silver to actually get it.
I’d put the first one around T2 to avoid new players foregoing any and all gear trying to rush it

More slots is always good. Even 11 seems too few so I could certainly use more.

Oh totally, alternatively, you could use a system like WT, where you can unlock 3 slots with silver and after that, it costs gold.

Another bonus for f2p slots (well for me) is that between tanks or planes, most f2p players choose the tank. They could now choose both.

I’m a pilot at heart… I like when stuff is going on up as well.

I think you should be able to buy up to 6 squad slots, with the extra slots costing 500,000 and 1,000,000 silver respectively. I think that sets the bar sufficiently high, makes it a late-game unlock, but also gives you enough extra slots that are still available for F2P players

yeah as F2P myself, I have to choose the plane, mostly because my teams are always useless pilots, like I love tanks and they are frankly point generating machines, but if I want to win I need to sacrifice my fun for it sadly

do you have ay idea mow much less ftp earn then p2p with premium time and squads 1,000 or abouts is a good game times half and hour
equals 250 - 500 hours per slot you would have to play two hours a day for a hundred and 25 to two hundred 50 days per slot
500 hundred to three thousand days depending on price and slot number
eight years that is some late game

or am i wrong 50k to 1m k per squad or all six

One more slot for vehicle should be ok IMO or one more for infantry slot as well, having to choose between tank or plane is very very meh for me. Give f2p players some flexibility.
