I haven’t seen this topic pop up in awhile, (edit: Ironically enough, I just realized the most recent suggestion post before mine is about this topic lmao) and no changes have been made, so I’m going to mention it again.
As of right now, soldier customization is just too expensive in Stalingrad. I’m a loyal whale, but I’m reasonable.
I cannot bring myself to pay money for the current prices. Buying the same cosmetics for each individual solider over and over just doesn’t work for me, and I’m sure many others.
I’ve spent my customization orders, and I’m done for now.
I’m not going to say make customization items available for every soldier after one purchase, as I know that will never happen.
But perhaps a middle ground? Like buying the item once per squad? Maybe unlocking the item for a certain class? (Assaulters, engineers, etc…) That sort of thing?
I would gladly throw some money at it in that system.
I’m really hoping you’ll compromise on this one, because I’m itching to play a bit of dress up.

I haven’t used any orders for customization yet until they change the prices, even then we should be able to grind for orders

Every time I look at those prices I remember a game that had a character clothing item that costed more money that it did in real life.
Pure scam

yep…
roughly
14 tickets ( or even more ) to just change 1 guy helmet ( can vary from 1 to 4 tickets because mostly comes with shitty default hats ) , 1 to 3 for pants and lastly, 8 tickets for a uniform… of basic colors not even camos.
how about helmets are default outside for certain squads like the vulksturm in berlin and let the player decide weather they want to put the hat.
afraid that no one will buy helmets anymore?
why don’t you apply simple decals on helmets?
as DF and gaijin do not like swastikas ( which it’s understandable for marketing reasons )
just make them realistic. they don’t have to be accurate. but look okish.
i made a few examples:
for the germans:
for the russians:
for the americans
heck, i may be missing more of insignas.
this, is where the monetization should go. on helmets with either camo or insignas.
not default helmets…

Damn i am gettin some weird flashback with this bear and another animal decall i had fun in warthunder
Lenny face jpg
it’s of the 7th guard heavy tank brigade.
mostly used on tanks, but could be used on infantry as well.
( after all, tank brigades do have infantry soldiers inside, so makes sense for recognition )
( although i realized that the star should be back the bear, and that said bear should look right, not left 
)

I don’t have a screen i just gotta say that it involved a deer(prolly) and a bear put upright ;3
Pricing would still not be the biggest problem if customization were massive and infinitely realistic, with a dozen of individual historical accurate equipment items and so on. But now we have some kind of fantasy placeholders who clips with each other where machine gunners are still with K98 pouches and Wehrmacht uniforms can be combined with camouflage elements used in Waffen-ss and so on. So far, very bad implementation.

usinc cammo from other uniforms wasn’t actually unusual for the top part (wich is exactly the only part that doesn’t have it in game)

I didn’t quite understand your thoughts (on writing style), but I’ll say frankly, it’s the worst thing when players get along with certain problems in the game, and they don’t pay attention to it anymore. It also encourages developers to look at many little ones, through their fingers. But little detail creates an overall picture. That is my opinion.
