A bit of economics and slots

I understand why the developers made the premium account give Extra slots. But I suggest deleting it.

  • Make the number of slots equal to 6. Or give the opportunity to buy 2 slots for silver.
  • Give everyone the opportunity to buy Extra slots regardless of the premium account
  • Add a 50% Boost silver to the premium account instead of slots.

This will make the game more honest. And it will allow premium account holders to Get silver.

so take slots away from people who paid for them
sell cheaply 2 exra slots to f2p players
and limit p2p to the same number of slots
while only giving p2p members a small silver boost
sure and after that they will make event versions of all paid squads
and tech line of all event squads
right before they all find Jesus and swear a vow of poverty, chastity and silence

that or close the game
relaunch version 2.0 charging 40 dollars to buy Enlisted remastered

Already a thing, since 50% exp boost literally means 50% silver boost as well.

Not already/

This, plus 50% silver boost. Even more silver. Is it clearer?

That doesn’t make sense.

Why not just increase the exp bonus then? Since the silver gain is directly calculated from the exp gain.
Why would they all of a sudden just give 50% more silver only boost, that’s completely random and inconsistent.

I don’t need an exp. I’ve already researched everything. But there is no silver to buy it all. That completely random and inconsistent.

You gain XP at a rate of 5 Silver Per 47 XP … so by increasing XP you increase silver gain. Unless you are saying that it is global and impact things like daily silver, achievements, event tasks and such.

You can take the slots away as long as you refund them. From the looks of it it seems they want to move the Premium membership 2 slots into silver purchased. So, if they instantly grant the silver to buy the 2 slots for all 4 factions to those that have premium, that works to rectify that.

The question falls into are those slots open to any class type where a free 2 play can field 3 vehicles or not. That is a discussion that could be had.

If I were to do it … I would split the vehicle slots to 1 plane 1 tank and 1 mechanized (merging riders and transports into one slot). Then slots 7 - 10 are open but purchasable only for gold. I would also make it so you dont require premium to buy those slots (that does seem unneeded to me).

one i don’t see them ever refunding anything unless required by law
two anyone that bought slots is swimming in silver
and while you can buy silver is value compared to other things is still low to anyone that has anything above the minimum

even if you paid in silver for 8 slots how much to get them and how much would people be refunded who already got them

(https://www.reddit.com/r/enlistedgame/comments/mt07n5/max_squad_limit/)

current free to play 4 squads per faction = 16
pay at least 8 per faction for 32
the point is there are some heavy hitters who you will pee off

look we all want a more balanced game but the whales leave and the game dies

Nov 17, 2023 — Max possible squad loadout should be 11 whenever they implement the extra slot reserved for a premium squad thing.

so 6 x 4 = 24 your f2p max
vs
11 x 4 = 44 current max paid
that is almost halved so hahahaha never happen

hes saying xp = silver (so even if you are maxed on xp, you still get the silver)

So instead of saying Pemium = 50% more xp and 50% more silver >>>>Premium = 100% more xp

I understood what he said. You didn’t understand what I said.

He means like war thunder (or wargaming) were you have both RP and SL booster who can be used separately

They did refund gold during the merge and even refunded the gold equivalent for the Stalingrad pack slots when the community pushed back during the merge…so I wouldn’t say they wouldn’t with 100% certainty.

Ha, you are hilarious

Anyone that gets pee’d off that F2P gets some more stuff (which incentivizes more people staying when they try the game to play with) while them losing nothing are honestly kidding themselves.

how about promoting spending some money on the game you like instead? thus contributing to server and development costs.

No.

I paid gold for my slots, not silver. I paid money for premium time. I already get extra XP and Silver. I got my premium slots.

You want to remove them? You said it’s not honest? What’s honest about the game? You think people who don’t pay should have an equal squad count as someone who spends money?

You can buy gold, and then buy slots with gold as a F2P player. Nothing is stoping you.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:
If silver is a river, then I’m dying of dehydration

I got my gold and I re-purchased my squad slot. Not sure why he is saying we didn’t get refunded.

Valkay coming in with the logical solution to an illogical question. :muscle::sunglasses::+1:

I understand what you were saying,

The catches that I paid gold for my squad slots so I could use extra vehicles. I like flying and that is why I spent real USD so I would be able to fly to or three planes if I chose. If they remove that ability, I need to be refunded my cash back to my account and refund me my USD, not gold.

I agree with everything except the last part. :+1:

This is fair … maybe add to premium the unlock (where you can use any type of unit within) of additional slots while premium is owned (Slots 5 - 10).

That way it would look like this:

Limit: Infantry, Mechanized, and Combat Vehicles
Restrictions: Rider and Transport for Mechanized, Tanks and Planes for Combat Vehicles

Slot 1- 4 (Default Slots):

  • 3 Infantry+ 1 Mechanized (0/1 Rider | 0/1 Transport) + 1 Combat Vehicle (0/1 Tank | 0/1 Plane)

Slot 5 - 6 (Bought by Silver):

  • Each Purchase Adds 1 to Rifleman, Mechanized, and Combat Vehicle Limits … But Do Not Add to the Restrictions but slot 6 opens an open Restriction
  • Slot 5: 4 Infantry+ 2 Mechanized (0/1 Rider | 0/1 Transport) + 2 Combat Vehicle (0/1 Tank | 0/1 Plane)
  • Slot 5 & 6: 5 Infantry+ 3 Mechanized (0/1 Rider | 0/1 Transport | 0/1 Open) + 3 Combat Vehicle (0/1 Tank | 0/1 Plane | 0/1 Open)

Slot 7-10 (Bought by Gold):

  • Each Purchase Adds 1 to Infantry, Mechanized, and Combat Vehicle Limits
  • Each Purchase Adds 1 to Rider, 1 to Transport, 1 to Tank, and 1 to Plane Restrictions

Premium Removes Restrictions (The (0/1 Rider | 0/1 Transport) and (0/1 Tank | 0/1 Plane)) from Mechanized and Combat Vehicle Limits

One day God told a man:
-I can fulfill your every wish! But keep in mind: no matter what you ask, your neighbor will be given twice as much.
The man, without hesitation, said:
-Then put out one of my eyes!

you are not saying what you think you are saying

Free player gains the ability to but two new slots, ok great
but are asking people to give things they paid gold thus money to obtain

i get why, you want the game to be more equal everyone to have the same amount of slots that is not what the saying means

here ill fix it for you

Jobe you have a might nice family ten children but look at Mike only four children

ill take four or your children and give two to mike and heah look their Miles
you, why you can have some dirt you like dirt right

the trouble is they already have more than six slots, its not about spite its about the fact they paid for it

god in that case is a Genie and the person who is getting something for nothing so long as someone gets twice as much, that is not the same thing

the spiteful one offering one eye for two is not the paying player but the free player, if someone else gets twice as much i want them to suffer twice as much.

it simple you cannot make it equal if you simple give the f2p seven more slots you punish the payer
if you give the f2p two slots and take slots from the p2p you punish the payer even worse

i guess the real choice would be to give the f2p 10 slots since the 11th is premium
four infantry 1 apc 1 rider 2 tank 2 event squads

while the paid keeps 11 at whatever ratio vehicle to infantry we have now
and event squads unlike f2p can be used in any but the premium slot
alos some perk like maybe outside vehicles spawns of all squads is reduced i don’t know.

the idea is simple its a carrot/stick carrot/ stick

that is instead of just giving the carrot to the f2p and beating the p2p with s tick both give a little and get a little making it just a little more fair

or option b we go with your idea, hmm i wonder how long the game will last with only player and no payers
