Why is there no rp bank?

Why is there still no RP “bank” for completed trees?

Players who have completed a tree have no reason to continue playing it, as the RP gained is completely wasted. This hurts player retention and makes the grinding process even more frustrating.

I have personally grinded all the Chinese jets, and now I essentially can’t play most of my top-tier jets because I’m waiting for new Chinese jets to spend my RP bonus on so that it doesn’t take ages.

Do you want an RP bank so that your rp isnt wasted?

Well, there sort of is a “RP bank”, but it costs GE to use.

Which is extremely unfair to players

Shouldnt gaijin reward the players who have spent tons of hours getting all the vehicles?

The grind is slow enough as is especially in ground

That is why the research bonus was added.

Honestly it doesnt even have to be infinite, enough storage for 1 Toptier vehicle would be enough, or a part of the rp going to other trees

Which is so miniscule that most people barely even notice its existence.
+100% rp for 5 matches only

Thats literally nothing. A couple of bad matches and that bonus is gone

Most players ive talked to have been really annoyed by this change as it barely rewards the player. People were expecting a permanent bonus for each tree that you have gotten to top tier…

Odd. I once had completed all air trees yet I could still play all planes just fine. Must be a problem on your end.

Right? Right now ive probably wasted 400k plus because i have nothing to research in top tier. Its super frustrating…

I can still play them. But, if i want to retain the RP bonus from modifications etc then i have to not play the aircraft that i havent spaded. Which for me includes the J-10, Mirage, J-11A and JF-17

Then it’s not a bank.

You don’t pay a bank to use your earnings lol

Its more like a punch to the face…

As I said, that is a “you” problem. And there are 9 other trees to play. Which give you 45 bonus missions for air. I don’t nearly have the time for it.
Sure, it would be nice if I could safe RP in advance. But then, no one would spend money to have the new plane on day one.

Thats not true. People who havent had the time to grind etc will still buy it… The people who have time will be the ones to grind the RP in advance which also wouldnt be the players that now GE vehicles…

Its a game problem. It doesnt reward you fairly for your time.

It isn’t a job, you know. It is a product to gain money with. They want rewards.

Then it’s not a bank. If players earned those research points then they should be able to apply them to other areas like we can use ground rp’s to unlock helicopters which I’ve done. Now helicopters are researched I’d like to apply the rp’s I’ve earned to either air or naval.

CRP’s are pretty much useless now and the amount I have keeps growing. I’d like the ability also to use crp’s to unlock boosters or unlock camouflage and maybe even some decorations.

Finally I’d like to see the reward for achieving medals be something other than crp’s.

Trust me, I know.

There are 85-dollar premiums in this game, and Gaijin is swimming in cash. This does not need to happen.

The point of playing a game is to enjoy it, but once you get everything in a tree, there is no point to playing it for the next 3 months.

In my case, I’ve been unable to grind a single Israeli vehicle for 6 months.

Depending on the country, yes, some do. Transactional fees, withdrawal fees etc. I’m not saying i agree with that, just stating that that is how it is.

Which is why you shouldnt need to grind that much to obtain things in war thunder…

We also want rewards for all the time we spent playing the game…

You claim the game “isnt a job” while you have a playtime of 9.2 months.

Why do it differently than Enlisted?

Then make it only availabe for premium account, or make it cost a few ge for a one time use, saving like 400k max and after the update drops you dont get the bank till you pay again.
