The Premium problem of WT

Ive seen people buying F4S at level 17 i was teamkilled when said level 17 launched these rockets on airfield. This is killing 11.0 to 13.0 is a problem its not just the F4S its the EJ premium vehicle the UK models. i see this as a problem many do so i have a soulution a LEVEL CAP you have to be minium level 40 to buy a rank 6 premium and level 60 for toptier so you gotta play the game

for lower tier examples is mig-15BISH is smoking half the planes in its BR range FM wise its insane

3

teams getting stomped in these ranges is crazy because who ever has less premiums on there teams win

Biggest issue with premiums imo is:

  1. You want to fly a specific plane that’s in the tech tree.
  2. It either:
    1. Has no premium equivalent at all
    2. It had a premium that’s been discontinued
    3. It’s in the wrong tech tree (Want a premium yak-3? Fly france! Logic! No thanks, at least US/UK are always on the same side but france and russia can fight each other. Still not as bad as bf109F4)
    4. It’s only on the marketplace.
  3. So you must choose between high spawn cost and low SL/min and flying the plane you wanna fly, or low spawn cost high SL/min but flying the plane in the wrong tech tree, or flying some plane you don’t care about and has zero appeal for good SL/min in the right tech tree.

Gaijin seriously needs to add a silver lion talisman. Comparing my match income with F4U-4 vs Mustang MkIa has been insane. Why can’t I pay to get the same income with the F4U-4 permanently like with the P-51 cannonstang (Mustang MK Ia).

i think them flooding teams dying within 30 seconds is a bigger problem respectfully

Just by the P2W event one in the Russian tree.

I agree. There should also be a way to get an SL and RP talisman to turn a non-premium into a pseudo-premium vehicle.

that french yak 3 eating everything that isn’t a spitfire is a good example of a problematic premium too

I mean, it’s a yak-3 at 4.3(RB)/4.7(SB). Main yak-3 is also 4.3/4.7. It’s the perfect premium (other than being in the wrong tree and being annoying for IFF) - same as tech tree variant (at least WTRTI and WTAPC don’t show different statistics for its weight, power, wing area and all that).

Honestly it being french is a brilliant containment for how much of a perfect premium it is. If every russia main was running them it would be a huge problem.

(I do have to say I think the plagis LF mk9 is the perfect premium prop fighter tho)

You can’t stop people from buying paid items from the game, it’s a eternal problem people have to live with, you’ll have to start from somewhere, I mean, everyone that complains about lower level players playing higher tier vehicles ever paid for the same vehicles when they reached level 100?

Personally I didn’t, but it made me up to level 100, and if the other person learn to play the vehicle properly it will benefit himself with more knowledge, but also with the boost in research. As I said it’s a endless problem, you can’t stop people from paying, and suggesting any changes that interfer in Gaijin’s profit is forbidden.

but making your team 50% noobs each match is very annoying and shouldnt happen there should be a limit on the amount of premiums per team

12

games are supposed to be fun not me sweating my balls off because half my team is base bombing F4 phantoms

13

Yesterday I had a 13.0 match wich the whole team was full of f4s no other plane except me I looked at the player cards and mostly lvl 8 I even found a level 2
(If I’ll find a picture I’ll put it here)
