first thing first,
needless to say;
REGARDLESS of prices.
but since i have a feeling you guys didn’t wanted to actually fix that, you opted to take the easy way out and reduce prices instead.
after all, not a bad thing to do right?
saving some time and coming up for temporary solutions.
AAAAnddd
wait what?
these were from the preliminary changes.
which it’s interesting.
VERY interesting.
and you know why?
so after countless threads regarding to improve the customization or generally adjust prices due to the current unoptimal system, your analysis and takes lead you to adjust gold prices?
fascinating. isn’t it.
especially since no one ever talked regarding gold prices being the problem.
kinda Everyone:
because let me get this straight,
did developers seriously expected that players would buy cosmetic that:
- do not match with other pieces due to a lacklaster selection
- do not match weapons pouches ( somewhat ties with the first point for the same reason )
- do not carry over to other campaigns presets DESPITE potentially being there ( primarily talking regard helmets, pants or other type of shared items that some of them are present in order presets )
- have to buy multiple uniforms across 4 nations or outright several presets?
- cannot use premium/event cosmetics bought/grinded off of premium squads onto other vanilla squads
For Gold?
sure, i was dumb once.
but let’s take as an example then an average user.
typically, optimal case scenario, let’s count in total 8 squads
4 for high br and the last 4 for low br ( not even counting those in br III… or veterans such as my self with ALL squads presets filled )
the averange users has only 4 slots. 3 infantry + 1 vehicle
in which they usually “have” to cover ( if germany ) tunisia, moscow, stalingrad/Rzhev & occasionally normandy in low br.
and then also for the high br presets, berlin, stalingrad / rzhev, battle of the bulge & normandy.
( consider, only for the current existing campaigns. god’s knows when and if we’ll get new ones how such campaigns will be handled )
in which roughly, around 252 orders ( more or less ) just to cover all 4 squads.
but here is the catch, only for one present of one br.
hence they would need around 1008 just for a single present of high or low br to get adequate looking soldiers in a ww2 game that do not look like rushed recruits at the front.
and you expect people to buy more?
here are the solutions
- keep the prices as they are, but make it so that each cosmetic bought is universal to the squad or faction
which i doubt at this point will ever happen but i’m still hopeful.
alternatively,
- decrease prices of cards… and i guess gold as well needed across the board if users have to buy it individually on all presets
as much i understand cosmetics might not appeal everyone, it’s infuriating how apparently the PR and advertisement team keeps throwing out historical remarks, lie outright giving false scripts to CCs that they have to read and mispread to their audiences to then have soldiers that barely has any kits on;
you’re telling me… is this how airborne units actually look like?
not at all to me:
pistol pouches, riggers and much more is missing.
for 8 cards too.
so please, i beg to reconsider.
fundamental point is, this game looks awesome. but the soldiers just don’t feel right.
and the customization seriously needs it’s rework.
starting from fair pricing.
