Well I saw useless rubbish in the daily login but I still did it as a premium player out of habit.Then I stop paying for premium and they start showering me with gifts.They also chase me to re commit premium so some kind of algorithm is in place.

Thats why you buy it during sales and full year.
Non-premium accounts get all the sl/rp you earn per match. Premium accounts get extra.
Unless you want to post a pic that shows something like “5,000rp×0.5non-premium account penalty=2,500rp earned”.
Expecting Morality from a company is absolutely dumb
I brought only on sale. So i spent max 100 euros.
I will still play for a long time, i allready have all i wanted and i chill play about 2 hours a day to relax after a long day… Maybe also with one beer :)))
So 100 euros for a game i will play a long time it is worth it.

Thank you, we agree on that
The solution to your problem is in your head. Just say no to high tier grind and be satisfied with some tanks, jets. And play, not grind.

Are they forcing me to pay for my tank every match? No not really. Repair costs are cheap, and with premium I don’t lose money period.
I’ve never needed premiums nor an account, they were bonuses and allowed me to play 30+ other video games.
“Pay to lose” - Thor.
Most companies in the world are worse as it’s not hard, Gaijin’s not one of them.

A wonderful example of gaslighting

No, that is not gaslighting.
He’s not implying nor stating anything that would cause someone to question their sanity.
He’s telling people that the grind mindset is dangerous.
Your post however, is accusing everything of being gaslighting, which itself is gaslighting.

Imho those questions are totally irrelevant as
- “moral” is a private thing and is like many others highly dependent on individual perceptions and personal core values.
- Questions regarding legal aspects are answered either by court decisions, local law and/or actually applicable law and/or Customer Protection Agencies. Video games with violent content are closely watched / monitored by almost any government in case the target customers are minors.
The main question is imho why you haven’t reduced your thoughts to the essence:
- You think that wt might be even more attractive for new players with a way more easier grind
- Lack of competition for wt might be an essential threat for wt
My pov:
- Your approach looks frankly spoken rather naive, as the game is optimized to trap rather very young players in a grinding hamster wheel in order to encourage them to spend the maximum amount of money in the shortest time possible.
-
Time is the crucial factor - either the player leaves the game due to irl stuff or just because he suddenly understands how wt actually works and has to decide if he wants to invest more or if he shall quit.
-
So expecting that a faster grind would increase player numbers is imho a fact-free wild guess, whilst i agree that a better grind might help with player retention rates.
-
The problem for gaijin is obvious: Easier grind reduces the need for premium time / vehicles - so the question is: makes it economic sense to allow a faster progress with less money per player spent whilst hoping that more players will join wt to compensate for these losses and to make more profit due to a larger player base.
- Whilst i do agree that there is currently no competitor for wt, i see hope that the overall quality of the game might improve if less “pew pew” players will throw money at gaijin, so shrinking player numbers are not bad by definition.

Well, this is a thread. Didn’t have it on my WT forum bingo this week, though.

Their anticheat only bans bots, not player cheaters. They only do that through reports.

why are you looking for morals in a company who’s only goal is to create more revenue?
both EAC and BattleEye ban players with suspicious software on their PC
I personally have never had this happen to me. All moderators I have spoken to were very helpful and considerate of my plights (deleted comments, chat ban and a dis-approved suggestion post).

Mehhh, even if I criticize Gaijin policy, I don’t feel threaten to be banned or to be sent into a goulag. I think it’s excessive to compare Gaijin with authoritarian states. I don’t even think it’s relevant to compare Gaijin with a state.
