you mean the standard price for the. Entire game… and not just one vehicle/item… ?
First of all, every premium vehicule from highest Ranks allow a full reward of research point, to be used on every Rank below and the rank above
–>so by this logic, the current rank 8 premium would be useful up to a Rank 9 of research
→ this makes it far more valuable than any other Premium vehicules
Secondly, the vehicule itself is an useful Mix of AA and AG capabilities, and surely one of the most versatile aircraft in game, despite some lacks in comparison to other aircraft we can have for free.
→ this makes it valuable
Thirdly, people didn’t mind to buy F-4S or other premium aircrafts before at their own full prices, leading Gaijin to the thinking of being Right about the proposed prices.
→ this explain the price itself.
As a results, enjoy your 75€/$/£ or Similar amount in other currencies.
50 bucks is Pretty bad… but yes 70 dollars for ONE vehicle, is beyond absurd.
Honestly these days, you get more content from a high tier premium than a full AAA game.
Depend on the game.
Then I suggest avoiding the market place if you having a conniption over $70.
how can AAA story driven game have same content as vehicle simulation type of game, ive poured 6k+ hours into wt just because the game WAS fun before and now im barely touching it because of how dogshit it became. Id rather pay for 100€ deluxe edition of a game that I know im gonna play thru multiple times, grind out all the achievements and most likely enjoy the 20+ hrs story, then paying for a vehicle I dont need because I already have unlocked everything in US tree.
I tried to do a bunch of math to quickly come up with a formula for it and it didn’t go great, numbers were weird, but I still absolutely think that they should be priced as a function of HDI index and median disposable income.
still, doesnt matter… 50 bucks is Way too much for a single vehicle… You can get entire DLC or games for that. 70 or 70+ is beyond absurd for ONE vehicle, out of a thousand
I mean im fine with Gaijin copy-pasting good aircrafts to premiums to ease up the grind like F4S, Mig23, Mirage F1 etc. but if something like tigershark stays a premium without a TT variants, and only way of getting it is through a microtransaction is just stupid. Even if it costed half the price at a sale I would waste 37,5€ only on a dozen of battles because I would get bored of it.
Edit: And not to mention 16v16 clusterfuck thats destroying 11.7+ lobbies
dont use the word conniption, you dont know what it means… Its beyond absurd for them to charge this much for a single vehicle. And its not a matter of having no money or anything like that… its the principle.
If people don’t buy it, prices will be less. But if they do, the price is right.
This is objectively false.
Just checked how much it would be if I (a Canadian) were to buy it.
75 euros for something that tomorrow can be modified without explanation. 75 euros for playing in the Beta part of the game where the games are of worse quality because they are full of premiun tanks of account level 15.
For me the top tier lacks added value.
That’s the hilarious thing about all this. Imagine new players being launched right into BVR combat?
They’re gonna be very disappointed when they can barely get off the runway before being missiled to oblivion. What a way to waste $75…
But I don’t want premium, titles, skins and GE, sell kits without these things for a lower price then no one will have a problem, and those who want to pay for stickers etc $75
In my country (Poland) the average is 700-750 euros per month, in my country this vehicle costs 325 zl, I wonder if anyone would be able to pay 160 euros for a premium vehicle, there would probably be crying from American players, war thunder needs regional prices.
There is no chance that the price will go down, because it is an online store, they do not have anything in stock and it does not take up space for them.
That is exactly the chance why it CAN go down. There is no need to take less if the skies are filled with it.
