I think 3 infantry and 1 vehicle with the 5th slot flexible between both is the chef’s kiss
What pisses me off the most is that u have to have a vehicle squad for some dumbass reason. I fucking hate vehicles in this game and will never use them, so why the fuck force me to bring one?!
I am a premium player but most times I only use 1 or 2 squads the whole battle, I do have the 10 slots loaded down with the odd ball squads for when something particular is a problem on the enemy team, But mostly I use my engineer squad, assault squad and sniper squad, the latter both have engineers since most people ignore ammo crate requests. My mortar squad actually has 2 engineers so I can reload like 10 times. My radio squad I have a sniper I use for a spotter and and engineer for reloads.
I agree that they should have a promotion of some type for f2p players to get the slots though, Wargaming does that and hands out free premium time like candy. Things like that will attract more players and keeps the current ones.
The monetization model is what pays for the updates patches and new campaigns these guys need to eat too you know what I mean.
The payment model has only gotten worse over time.
Knowing previous changes, asking for free players to be able to win slots would come at the cost of something like reducing the starting number of slots even further.
Now you practically have to pay just to get more than 3 silver orders a day, and they made everything cost silver now, even grenades.
In CBT you had a chance to get a grenade and/or medkit with every gun
i actually somewhat disagree with this. they can do promotions, but they should put 2 vehicle slots at default cause you have 2 different types of vehicles. there is very big difference between 1 vehicle and 3 infantry and 2 vehicle and 3 infantry. and difference with every new slots is actually not that big. it is nice to have, but it is not critical.
If you are only getting 3 silvers in a day its on the player then and the time they have.
I average 8 to 10 I think during an evening run. Call it 2 to 3 hours.
I’ll log it next time I am on just to see how close I am.
Thats beyond what the battle pass give ms, so it probably ends up being more, since I’m at the end and it keeps recycling it.
And, the BP is regenerative, pay once, play , save the gold, repeat. I have never seen another model that allows you to pay once and technically have it for free from there on out.
I can’t speak for CBT since I wasn’t there.
But adding onto monetization is normal. I, personally hated the way we did things for weapons and troops originally.
Academy training for troops was clunky and pointless.
Rolling for weapons was pointless too. I have , what…200 mortars? 100 flamethrower?
It sucked. And then, I had to break down weapons for parts to upgrade? That was not a better system.
Costs for weapons could be better. Maybe bronze for early level weapons and silver for later stage ones?
But my personal thoughs were positive for the changes that got us to this point vs where we came from.
Battle pass cuts me off after 3 tasks, unless I pay for Premium 2: Electric Boogaloo on top of my existing premium. Scam.
I hate battle pass systems in general, even worse that this game forces you to do battle pass to progress.
WG knows how to do giveaways.
I think I got 3 to 4 ships / Planes / tanks and a good dozen slots plus gold, camo, flags, ect from events and challenges.
DF could learn a thing or two from that.
Not what I was referring to.
I get 8 to 10 from XP gains alone. Before battle pass.
Or crates.
I’m not opposed to getting more. I’ve made broad sweeping posts in the past to improve the economy for the F2P player and give them more.
But things are doable in the current system.
Guys I think 1 squad that can do either vehicle or infantry, 3 infantry squads and a vehicle one will do the trick wdyt?
im thinking that we should have a option to choose whether we want to be infantry only, tank only, or planes only.
mixing all 3 wouldnt be wise, and would cause spam. i think that the players should be able to choose to take in vehicles only (cant mix tanks with planes) or just infantry. because right now i play infantry only, and my plane squad is just sitting and collecting dust, never to be used
vehicle only isn’t wise cos that might leave u a sitting duck in the respawn screen if all vehicle spaces are taken (2 tank 1 fighter 1 attacker) but all infantry is an absolute thumbs up
