I’ve been thinking recently how after the big update there will be some appeal to keep buying premium squads.
I currently own several premium squads from Germany and the Soviet Union. When the update is released I will have the opportunity to combine these squads from different campaigns into a single army.
But I still don’t understand why I would keep buying premium squads in the game. I mean, I have enough premium squads to fill almost every slot in an army. In addition, I have already unlocked everything for the Soviet Union and almost everything for Germany. Why would I spend more money on anything other than the premium account?
I think they need to add 1-2 premium exclusive slots, that might help.
But other than that i agree: as it stands right now they will need to push the future premiums more into p2w direction to incentivize buying them. Which will suck, but i expect nothing less at this point.
The only way i see this incentivised besides the p2w factor is them allowing you to customize squads before buying. As in selecting what soldiers you get in the squad. I would also hope they remove restrictions on radio operators not being able to use smoke outside of proper RO squad. Bombers can stay RO squad only.
As an example, buying a premium assaulter squad but you get to choose the 3 remaining slots between: medic, engi, at gunner, MG or RO, maybe even flamer. But only choose 1 class per slot so you don’t end up with 4 assaulter 3 flamer squads.
