Gold Box / Premium squad customization: debunking arguments

Hello comrades!

The devs partially listened to a clear vote by the players: They allowed premium squad owners to buy the premium squads uniforms… for gold. There is literally not a single reason for that. With this i will debunk any argument why they do not give it to those who already purchased the squads.

1. Argument

“You must buy them for gold, because they are premium”

→ We did pay gold to get the premium squads and their cosmetics by purchasing the squad already

→ Argument not making sense


2. Argument

“Premium squad cosmetics should be more rare”

→ If premium squads should be more rare, why would you add them to the chests to make them obtainable more easily?

→ 2nd, premium squad owners can always appear with their premium squad cosmetics, because they own them. The only barrier is that we are forced to play a squad we do not like instead of just using the cosmetic on other squads we have fun with.

→ Argument not making sense


Any more arguments? none will make sense.


Currently you have to pay about 50€ to be able to unlock the premium squad customization, THEN you have to pay about 72.000 gold (72€) for a single complete squad.

So if you want to play a 9-man rifle squad with a certain premium squad cosmetic, you would have to pay 122€.

For a single squad.

Insanity.

Add the gold box with cosmetics purchasable for gold when you roll them, for those who do NOT own the premium squads (if you want that as an alternative) BUT players who own the premium squads should get those cosmetics for use upon purchase.

That would be somewhat fair towars both devs and players. Players would purchase more premium squads and therefore the devs would earn more money.

I am genuinely curious about who would say no. This is literally unfair

make the poll public and you’ll know who.

with:

[poll type=regular results=always public=true chartType=bar]


anyway, uniforms should never have been restricted to gold orders.

but to dedicated crates.

because now, with the whole ordeal of pouches being implemented per tunic.

it could either mean 2 things:

  • you will have the crate even moar bloated with the same item but in 10 different combinations

  • you will not be able to obtain pouches of premium cosmetics outside maybe premium squads but not anywhere outside.

Because they clearly stated they do not want to rework the customization taking into consideration what type of weapon the soldier is using, hence the pouches should match.

which it’s done through templates.

so you’re effectively castrating the customizations even further.
but that’s what the few wanted. so…

:woman_shrugging:


fun fact, did some math:

20€ for a single rifleman squad over one preset

you’d need 11.340 gold for the whole 6 presets ( in germany case )

135€ for all presets on a single squad :skull:

also,
since when Event items count as Premium items?

that’s a fallacy in it of it self.

so what they say is, it’s pretty much based on their own :peach: es.

All of us already know who that was.

on personal opinion, if you own the squad you should get it free and use only orders

You know who that is, Sergei.

Would give more reasons to finally spend my 1000+ customisation orders.

This also really bothers me, why should anyone have to pay gold for those? They were free to get.

If you have a specific event squad you should have the ability to buy their customization for all squads with orders.

But they should cost more orders than regular ones, a mark up of +10 on top of the regular price should prevent them from being used too much.

I really do wonder who you think it is.
