Why are these prices so ridiculous for certain squads? For example the “Invasion of Normandy”: Krieghoff FG Squad which came free as part of an event unlock (which I missed 1 task to get) is the price it is in the store which is $49.99 Is it because of my location the store is more expensive? As it stands I do not understand the prices please enlighten me on this topic if you can.
To make money.
To make them look like a better deal when they are on sale
Time is money. So “expensive” is perspective
*To take money
Ain’t no one forcing you to pay… what are you, a commie that want’s everything for free??!

I don’t mind paying for things. I get battle passes and premium at fair prices all I’m saying is certain squads are not worth an arm and a leg. It’s highway robbery
So you support the position that a supplier should be able to charge whatever the market will pay.
what arrant nonsense - robbery is when you don’t get a choice.
In the mean time they get to decide how much they charge for their product.
Hey, that’s the church, or billionaires, or influencers. We commies are more about getting the proper amount of compensation for the effort we put and therefore being able to properly enjoy things with our money…
But hey, don’t worry, common misconception.
They should really reduce the price of Premium squads and Gold order stuff. Like if they make it cheaper I feel like people would be more enticed to buy them as a result. Instead they are really damn expensive
Yes I agree. Paying $49.99 USD for a squad is not worth it. I bought premium for 30 days once, and battle pass. Then I got the second battlepass (the current one) and I renewed my premium with the 90day option. Not a bad deal, I’m paying less than $30 to play a free game and have a more consistent and enjoyable experience. Yet to pay anything over the amount of premium time for a squad or vehicle is ridiculous and not financially viable, even for someone who is earning a good amount of money. A whale player might buy a squad or two, but the average player will not and most likely will never.
Was different squad this one was only on discount not for free.
Some?
Wait, those can be bought if the event was missed?
Isn’t it the premium grenade launcher fg42 squad you’re speaking of?
Yes, it most definitely is.
The premium Krieghoff FG squad is a different one.
And the grenade launcher fg42 squad cannot be bought anymore (so far).
A premium squad should be AT MOST $10-$15
I can only totally agree with you.
The prices they have are ridiculously expensive, and there has always been debate on this topic.
But it is clear that Gaijin does not care in the least what we think about it.
The premium squads have not dropped in price (only on specific occasions, Christmas, New Year, etc.). And they will never lower their price.
That’s what greed has… If they had cheaper prices, they could sell much more. But it seems like they are elitist.
Exact. This way they could sell a lot more. But they have chosen the path of greed.
Thats why you should only buy them if they are on sale because then they mostly reach areas where you can discuss about their worth… or if you really want them.
