The current price for the weapon is fine, but mechanics of buying with silver order for equipment is too much. For almost all of the troops we need large ammo pouch, C4. With the current silver order purchase, if we have 6 squad each with c4, assuming 7 ppl average per squad, it would cost 42 silver orders or 1M xp just to equip everyone with grenade. And for ammo pouch it will add another 2M xp . And this is for just one fraction, one campaign. The total xp required will be 3M * 8 = 24M. Impossible. Although this number is extreme, still its very difficult even for seasonal players to get this much xp just to equip everyone. Plus the players who started b4 the update would have equipped every squad with c4s & ammo, while the players starting after the update would have none to begin with. So i think its unfair to use silver orders to purchase equipment. Pls change it to bronze back for equipment.
Also we will have huge surplus of silver troops order but extreme demand for silver weapon order. Eg. A soldier costs 1 troops order. But for him, we need 2-3 silver for weapon, 1/2 for c4 and 2 for ammo/grenade. Summing to 5-7 weapon order for every troop order. But we only get 2 weapon for 1 troops. So it would be good to change buying equipment back to bronze order.
You also get silver from battlepass, and some from daily boxes, but it’s like 5 per month so not much.
It’s a silver sink of end of campaign anyway, and with changes coming to granades soon i would not buy many now, you get enaugh from squads anyway.
Real bottleneck is bronze weapon orders now, while You have silver to get weapons, it takes 69 to upgrade one 6star weapon.
With 4M xp per campaign, You get around 630 orders, so enaugh to upgrade 9 weapons. Low level guns are cheaper, but they take away from this pool.
So upgrading full 3-4 squads in one faction takes as much xp as 3-4 campaigns.
I spend so much Silver Orders for my Pz4 in Normandy, then the Panther cames out.
I would disassemble it. and only would get 23 Bronze? WTF.
Give me my Silver Back!
Same Issue with much more Vehicles,
i spend Silver i should get Silver!
I would say that shortage of bronze order is not much impacting as anyways we rarely upgrade weapon. But shortage of silver weapon is extremely impacting. You get only 2 / 3 from squad. But you have around 7 ppl per squad. and each required ammo or grenade pouch + grenades for other 5 ppl. So totalling to (7x2 + 5 = 19 silvers more (+ weapons)) or (7x2 + 5 + 7 = 26 silvers more (grenade)). This is without including mines.
Small ammo pouches are for bronze, large are unlocked at level 18, so plenty of silver could be saved if You really want them. Though they are most usefull for late game weapons anyway.
If You want to play 7 man granade pouch squad, i would say it’s good that it requires some grind, this is most cancer thing in this game right now, spamming 21 explosive packs on cap.
Granades and explosive pack You get from squads for free anyway, only if spammed like above with 7 granade puches You would need to buy more.
There was granade rework hinted at in last update post, so wait with buying them anyway
If You really have not enaugh silver for weapons, maybe consider buying elite battlepass, up to 100 silver in just post level 60 task can be obtained per season, usually more as they get prolonged, and next one is free.
Or If You really want to play f2p, consider watching Quadro f2p series, as he explains that not all weapons are relly worth spending silver for anyway.
And last, if You really believe that we don’t upgrade weapons anyway, check out mp40 with and without them. As with things above, not everything needs to be perfect, but upgrades make snipers more deadly at longer ranges, allows many smg’s better control, or are diffrence between downing someone in 2 or 3 shots.
Why the fuck those retards made the silver equipment so rare FFS?
These mofos are turning this shit to pay to win from update to update.
Played and won more than 5 matches and I cannot even aford one fucking large ammo bag FFS!
