Yeah, i totally agree on this!
WWII equipment is bought through the year, instead of an one time purchase.
If they were to expand it more through that era, they would make waaay more money. One of the reasons for this is because everything is openly published, instead of unclassified documents making it impossible to add cou ter vehicles for most nations.
Yes, cause those are the interesting looking tanks and planes. There’s a lot more diversity in those since they have so many different suspension types, armaments, general layouts etc.
There is a post on this forum that asks everybody to leave their ages and you would be surprised to find how many are adults not children,many are well in to thier 50,60 and even 70s.
These are first Gen gamers.
Many people that age have disposable cash and credit cards to throw at the game where kids do not. Gaijin does not seem to realise this and is probably cutting it’s own throat by abandoning WW2 and flooding it with Cold War Arty spam and not introducing new WW2 vehicles.
Overall it is the same story. Obvious greed in some areas and totally missing a trick financially in others.
Gaijin’s CEO is missing out on a new Ferrari by ignoring WW2
They push top tier, as that’s where you can sell $70 premiums. You cannot do that with WWII stuff. People see how much grind there is to get to the top tier, so they get suckered into spending $70 on a pixel unit, thinking it’s a good investment. I don’t like it as much as I don’t like squadron vehicles that are top tier as well.
Years ago I used to think that I can grind out some vehicles and upgrade them, so I can use them in some interesting battle events (World War anyone?) There were some attempts, but in the end we are just stuck with the never ending stock grind with a crappy match maker and nothing else. I signed up for War Thunder, not Grind Thunder.
