As long as Gaijin dosn´t change their mentality about financing a game, and they will likely never, they won´t do anythink to make their games more enjoyable or even attractive.
In all of their puplished games its the same schematic they use to make people buy…
Make the Grind painfull
Make Stuff exclusive behind a paywall and change BRs, guns, features after the initial introduction or sale. (Make Prems etc purposly Imbalanced to increase sales and then change it after 6-12 month)
Make it possible to buy progess
other games:
Make the grind annoying but not painfull, also having a progress curve that starts low and gets faster the more you play (first top tier takes longer, 10th toptier takes 25% of the time)
Make Stuff exclusive behind a paywall but don´t change afterwards, but try to balance it and try to avoid any changes ( i remember WoT when they changed the T26E4, every player had the pop up in game to choose if they want a refund or go with the changes and keep it)
Make it possible to buy progress
*edit, but all that is offtopic…
yes, the bonus RP should be MUCH MUCH higher and the general Grind MUCH MUCH smaller…
and i would also bet that if the game would have a smaller grind since like 2018, the playerbase would be at 500k+ and they would make more money.
Just a system like in WoT with the 1% FreeXP and Daily XP bonus (x2/x3 of ALL RP and not BASE RP wtf…) you get would already make me and i bet a ton of others insanly more happy and eventually even change me play more and MAYBE even talk GOOD about the game in front of others LOL.
In my opinion one easy way to see the different mentality Gaijin has compared to other games is their rewards for “achievments”
Gaijin: here is some XP that you need to spend money on to be usefull
Other games: here is some customization and/or currency for the game
I am not trying to argue that there should be an insane reward but even some inscription, camo scheme or even just a booster as nice gesture really cant be too much to ask.
War Thunder’s “Free RP” is completely useless, at its 1=45 exchange rate.
I would rather have Free RP be earned 100 times slower but be free to use, like Enlisted… or even a 1=450 exchange rate would be good enough… but the way it currently is, I haven’t used it once since 2018.
I thought the “free xp” was just the excess rp from when you finish researching a weapon/vehicle, which in WT gets transferred over to the next vehicle you chose to research automatically.
(Either way actually buying the stored RP is stupid as hell with that garbage exchange rate lmao)
Enlisted has free xp? when i came out it definitly didnt.
Whatever… the conversion rate should be not to stupid. In WoT you get 5% and thats not a lot.
5% meanst that you get after grinding 20 Top tier Tanks, you can pick one for free.
Grind 20 Top tier tank here… that will take already for fkn ever… the one more doesnt do that much then.
btw WoT has 62 Top tier tanks and they never increased the cost of it since t10 are in the game.
WT has 35, and also they increased the XP per top tier tank (since the “new” research system) from around 150k to 400k+… which is btw the excakt reason why the grind is so fkn bad in the game now and gets worse with every new higher BR they throw in.
And these incresing XP cost devaluate the Free XP with every new top BR…
also the higher the BR the more XP you SHOULD get… but thats sadly not true. (also that devaluatedes a ton of premiums bought ever time smt higher pops up)
IS-4 has 465% and cost around 150k
T80BVM has 575% and cost 400k
That results in a RP increase of 23% while the tank costs 266% More
AND thats is again… why we despritly need a change in the grind system, starting with a Bonus for player that have already grinded for years and more important for all the new and future players that dont accept so much suffer like i do…
It’s just getting ridiculous, in june 2023 they announced this research bonus for october/november 2023, august 2024 still nothing at all…
How hard can it be to give out a little bonus… except, they might give TOO MUCH bonus, so it needs to be tested over & over again…
Well sorry to disapoint you but I think its just a visual… Im not seeing anywhere this 50% bonus, when I finish game. Also the count doesnt go down its always 3/3.
Just show me when you get that bonus, because I played like 5 games and its not giving me a bonus. Dont know what else to say, I can read I read that, and has nothing to do with count that doesnt go down or bouns you aunt getting.
