I really enjoyed Tunisia, there weren’t planes ruining your play, most people were on a similar level with equipment, apart from the people who payed the fee to get access to the full campaign experience, but although running around with an SMG was a big advantage over people with bolt action rifles, it was nothing bad. But I have come to the conclusion it was a way of trying out a p2w model, here’s why: If they truly wanted to test the campaign, it would have made more sense letting everyone have access to everything, providing much more error reports and feedback, further Tunisia was mainly just new textures and skins with no real new mechanics, which makes me ask the question, why the big beta, and charging such a high price for a beta test for a game that is also still in alpha (or is it beta?) is just absurd. But one valuable piece of info they got was, if there’s a few people running around with outclassing equipment, while the majority is running around with their low level stuff, will anyone care, and the answer seemed to be no. I really hope I’m wrong, and that they just really did do some weird beta test, but taking into account the premium features they’ve added in the new updates I don’t have my hopes high. Premium used to be a way for players to just speed up their progress, perfectly fair, I even felt like experience and skill made a bigger difference than equipment, but they’ve changed that, especially since they’ve also randomised aim in the new update, it means that having better… or perhaps premium equipment, increases your chances of getting a quick kill.
Unbelievably disappointing, I’ve considered getting premium before, since I won’t have a lot of time to play anymore, and I really wanted to try out the higher level equipment and I knew it takes very long to level up, I’m already level 18 with Axis in Normandy, but there is no way I’ll support their new model.
Yeah the Berlin CBT was like a month wich was plenty time give feedback but Tunisia CBT was over in like a week. I´ve spent like 130 bucks on this game and I´m starting to regret it. No chance in hell I´m buying any more premium anything. But jokes on them, if they never make a serious attempt to make the grind easier the game will never catch on like War Thunder.
I purchased all 4 preorder SMG squads, the motorcycle squads and the premium Pz38t.
How much did I spend? $0
There is a crafting event going on in war thunder right now. Sell everything you get. Easy $50+ and apply content creator discounts at checkouts.
I’m not reading this wall of unformatted baby screeching. I can guess from the title that you have created a strawman for your poor performance in the video game (ie muh p2w muh fugga)
If anything you’re the one busy baby screeching, I merely posted an opinion, with an explanation, and I’m not sayin I’m right and everyone who disagrees is wrong, I would love to proved wrong or convinced otherwise. But you not even bothering to read the post and then insulting me is just really immature. And no, I don’t have poor performance, I consider myself to be quite good, and even if I lacked skill, if I performed poorly in a fair way, I’d have no issue.
Yeah every single person on this forum considers themselves very good at the game.
You ever notice you never find anyone who admits to being a bad driver yet you encounter them all the time on the road? same goes for this game. I’ve seen half these usernames, on the forum, in game and most of them are mediocre at best.
I know what you meant, what I was trying to say is that it´s an entirely different problem wich didn´t have anything to do with mine yet. One thing at a time.
I didn’t take that photo with the purpose of sending it on a forum, I sent it because i had it. If your definition if being good at a game or competent is taking screenshots i feel so sorry for you. There’s so much more to be good at.
Having enough cognition to navigate the process to take a screenshot is something I judge, yes. If you can’t take a screenshot why would I believe you have the mental fortitude to not blame your sorrows on every possible straw man possible. Pathetic.
Not having enough mental power to not figure out that sometimes it’s more convenient to just take a photo is something I also judge, so I take it we are both pretty pathetic.
Yeah pretty much everything you’re complaining about in here is the exact reason why berlin failed.
Let me give a quick list of some stuff:
Berlin CBT was a month and caused massive issues with the community and started an exodus from the original alpha and beta testers from this game because they felt backstabbed.
Berlin test was a month and had no players after a few days. I can only wonder why the Tunisia test was shorter…
The grind is already really easy. In ten hours of gameplay you can level up a campaign to level 13 or so without even trying hard or having premium.
The game will never catch on like War Thunder because ones the only game of its type and the other is one of 50 million other games of its type.
Except the units aren’t pay to win… They’re significantly worse than normally unlocked units…
Enlisted is in full release
Because whales gonna whale
It really doesn’t take long to level up though… You can easily earn 40k XP an hour as a ftp without really trying or using any of the boosters they’re giving out for daily logins now.
This is litterally the first time I´ve heard about this. Either that or it´s ben so inignificant that I elected to forget it.
I can attest personally that there was a drop in players after the first week but every lobby alway had atleast 3-5 people per team. That was during peak hours though.
That´s still too long for my taste but ok, putting that aside. How do you think about a single level taking 10 hours? Because that´s what gonna happen someday if they keep increasing the required XP for levels. That´s where my main problem lies.
Yes thank you captain obvious. I didn´t think that needed to be mentioned but Enlisted can also stick out from the crowd if they refine the Squad mechanic. In WT and WoT grinding for vehicles works but doing the same with something like just an SMG doesn´t.
