This is exactly why they did it. They want to lure people in with ads about modern tanks and jets, then throw them in a game with 1920s planes and tanks. The player will become dedicated to getting that abrams or F-14 and will try to get there for free by grinding, only to learn how tough it is to grind, then finally buy in, literally, either by getting the Abrams clickbait, the Leopard panzer batalion, or the T-72 TURMS, or buying a tone of GE to use convertible RP to just fast track their way to the top tier.

It wouldnt fix all the issues but for me it seems ridiculous that I have to research the exact same round for 5-6 different tanks in the same tree. Once you have researched a specific round or missile, you should be able to use that straight away on new vehicles that can use it, unlocking 'dm33' 30 fucking times is just so damn demoralising

@DawgIVLife

Ай бұрын

If they allowed that to happen then they would just increase the DM33 mod to equal the cost of all 5 of the vehicles which can use it. I think its a better system now because the more modifications a vehicle has the lower the cost is for individual mods. Just it needs improvement to help get though copy paste mods faster.

I forgot which mbt. It happened between "good old days" (when stock apfsds was still a thing) and the "reform" giving high br tanks stock apfsds and fpe. Once, I made up my mind: no money for gayjin to purchase upgrades! I literally banzai'd with heatfs for 30 matches (no prem account) to get first apfsds+parts+fpe. After that I quit grinding: higher br is just the same as lower br, only worse, why bother.

Honestly, there are several things that I think will help with the grind. No. 1, reduce the RP cost after 8.0 by 25-50 percent. No.2, allow all vehicles that are folded to have the same 130% RP bonus for the next vehicle. No.3. Remove the expiration time on all boosters. No. 4. Remove wagers, and orders.

Like I don’t purchase the expert crew skills just simply due to the nature of needing to buy tanks that I don’t want which also harms enjoyment of the game and effectively speaking my engagement time with the game (especially with vehicles that are worse)

Id love to have some sl boost to talismans. Right now when i add a talisman to a vehicle i really like and then grind past it, theres no point in even playing it since you gain basically nothing from playing your favorite vehicles. Doesnt have to be as big of a boost as premiums but something better than nothing would be great.

I’d like to add that, for the first feature you took up, they actually have talked about adding, in fact if you look at the 2024 spring roadmap, it seems as if it’ll be added in the next update,

I really want to see them do a couple things RP related 1: Reduce the RP cost of researching the same modification multiple times. I don't want to research the same exact upgrade for 5 different similar vehicles from scratch every time. Every time I do, the next one should be cheaper. It could even carry between tech trees for some vehicles. That would help a lot with the monotony of the grind and let them add more variants of vehicles we already have that people really want to see. 2: Make it so we can turn any vehicle "premium." If I want to grind optimally, I shouldn't have to do it in one of the copy paste vehicles Gaijin has arbitrarily called something special and turned yellow. Make it so talismans are how vehicles turn "premium," giving rp and sl bonuses. That would probably earn Gaijin a lot more money cause now there's a ton more premiums people could buy. While you're at it, merge all the copy paste premiums with the tech tree versions, make them into skins or something, refund whatever overlaps, and make more room for unique vehicles. Copy and paste premium vehicles should not take up more vertical room than the tech tree vehicles you have access to. 3: Overhaul convertible RP, the stuff you have to spend GE to use. I don't think anyone but the biggest whales actually use this stuff, and it's so dumb. I've earned over 14 million in 2 years of playing, it would cost me about $1.5k to use it all. No one in their right mind is ever going to do that! They should remove all the convertible RP and replace it with a free to use version. Make it so you can earn it through things like achievements, the single player missions, tutorials, or maybe some of the hard to get medals. And obviously retroactively give it to the people who have already completed those things. Make it so it can be spent *for free* on researching any vehicle and any modification. That would turn it into a mechanic people would actually use and be happy it exists.

You should just get a one-time flat 3% permanent RP bonus if you buy the end of a line vehicle for each line.

If they make it so that the more spaded vehicles are in your lineup, people might just bring one meta thing and leave the 7 spades things unused. What they should do is you have to play the spaded vehicle to get the bonus. This encourages a balanced and fully spaced lineup and buying GE for crew slots which can become expensive. The bonus can be something kinda small but enough to make the grind go quicker if you have enough spades vehicles and you can use all of them. My idea is around 1% boost per spaded vehicle used in that match. If you get spawn camped or run out of spawn points, then you only get the bonus for the ones you used. Do you get what I mean?

I'm only at 3:17 on the video, so you may have covered it later on in the video. But what I've been saying all along. Is they should just do a flat number based on the rank. Say you spayed it all the vehicles in rank for, you get a permanent 0.XX% booster. It keeps the amount small enough that guys in can still make money off of premium, off of premium vehicles, and everything else. But still gives a boost to the players which let's face it anything is better than nothing at this point. Also it has the other benefit of given incentive for players to go back and research the folder vehicles they skipped, to go back and play vehicles to spade that they didn't like. It just boosts overall activity within the game. It will also diversify the amount of players playing at each beer instead of 10.0 being the only BR that you can instantly join a match

I think a less complicated system would be better. Just give everyone a 50-100% RP boost daily for every nation or a random nation every day on the first match played each day. This would make people pay more premium and buy different premium vehicles to get the most of each nation, while also alluring players to level up other nations. I liked the change of destroying 3-6-9 vehicles and getting some extra XP that they added not long ago. It's simple and effective and sometimes it makes me use a backup just to try getting the last 1-2 kills for additional XP

honestly, I'm less concerned with the RP. what I'm always short of is SL, I must have 20+ vehicles unlocked that I can't afford. playing without at least an expert crew feels like I'm at a big disadvantage to a lot of other players and I honestly need all the help I can get to be even remotely competitive. I feel like if you're not above average in skill your SL earnings can be so painful. meanwhile the community just calls it a skill issue and moves on.... the game needs players to stay alive and grow and it seems like gaijin and the community just expect everyone to be a pro to progress at any reasonable rate.

It really depends expert crews imo aren't needed unless you plan to play the vehicle in the long term. If its a spade and never play the vehicle again I would recommend against it. Clearly the SL that would go to vehicles in your case is going to expert crews which many of them don't need to be expert. Like for example if I wanted to expert the crew on my leopard 2a5 it would cost 1,080,000 SL that is 5 or so mid tier vehicles and also 1-2 top tier vehicles in SL.

Air AB and bombimg the shit out of bases is my SL grind but still sucks

Is it wordt spading certain planes to grind quicker through the tech tree or should i just stick with playing a high tier premium? For example spading tier 6 us jets or just sticking with playing the f5c for the grind

Great idea.....also maybe a RP boost the more nations you play and have ranked up....this would promote players to play different nations (good for gaijin and the game as a whole)

They could just add 2x SL and RP weekends like every other week or 1st week of every ones or what ever you know some nice but not over done. It also incentivizes more play time.

I like the idea in general. It seems like I wouldn't notice the difference at first, or might not be motivated to get such a tiny boost, but then it adds up over time, and any boost helps anyway. Also, would the boost be just for a vehicle type (ex. America ground), or a nation, or the whole game?

I thought they gonna add a one time permanet xp boost between 20% and 25% if you have in any county a toptier tank/jet/heli

Unlocking special vehicles with your convertible rp would be nice

I feel that ground and helicopter vehicle rp costs need to be lowered because they should not be the same as air since air gets three times more rp

gajin could add ranking battles like the ones in pubg this would prevent bad playing rookies and make it fun for people who have a tech tree spaded

If they want to keep the grind extremely long they could at least give us new game modes to make the game more dynamic and fun. Win win.

It will Help, that the Booster donst run Out. And to handle the 400% boost, gaijin can make a % cap

I was thinking 10 percent permanent booster for every tech tree completed

If you implement the system your way - it'll be exponentially growing booster. You spade a vehicle, you get a boost, you spade next one faster, and faster, and faster. With how many vehicles this game has you will end up at a point where you will get such booster that 1 kill will grant you enough RP to research a top tier vehicle. How to improve the system? Way 1 (the wrong way) Instead of combined bonus from all nations take 1 nation with the most vehicles spaded and apply a boost based on it ( still using your boost math ). This way will work much better but it will mean that nations with more vehicles will benefit much more from this that's why this is the wrong way. Way 2 (the better way) Instead of combined bonus from all nations take 1 nation with the most vehicles spaded and apply a boost based on it BUT this time there's a bonus cap and bonus gained for each vehicle is different for different nation. Example: You have 2 nations, nation 1 has 10 vehicles, nation 2 has 50 vehicles. Lets set our boost cap at +100% RP. In this case every vehicle of nation 1 will be worth +10% to the booster while every vehicle of nation 2 will be worth +2% (we can already see the problem here) so without increase in RP required based on amount of vehicles we will benefit smaller nations more so while this way is better it is also still wrong. And increasing RP costs will increase the grind which will upset people further. Way 3 (an even better way) We take a set value for a vehicle (your math), we calculate maximum achievable boost for a nation with most vehicles, then we calculate maximum achievable boost for a nation with least vehicles, we add them together and divide by 2 to figure out what each vehicle of each rank should be worth to make things balanced (Resulting value (or something prettier close to this value) should be added as the boost cap). In this case no matter what nation you grind you will get exact same boost with (theoretically) exact same amount of grind (except some rare cases where some nations have like 1-2 vehicles/rank). So imo Way 3 is theoretically the best way of implementation of the boost system but ofc someone will find how this system is wrong and i would like to hear how to improve it.

hear me out when u finish a tech tree like lets say i finish usa air i get like 15% research boost for the next air tree i grind

I like the idea but there are a lot of vehicles that i just dont want to use for personal reasons. Almost the entire left tree of US air is undesirable until i get to jets, i dont want to have to spade them for a small RP bonus. Spaded vehicles should give a bonus imo. You know how each vehicle has a RP and SL bonus at the bottom of the stat card? Maybe once you spade the vehicle, it adds 50% to it. Lets take the 8.0 American M60 tank for example. It has a 200% SL boost and 202% RP boost for RB. Once spaded, those would jump to 250% and 252%

It's fine just make premium cheaper like top aircraft and tanks should be max 30$ and premium account should give more much more especially money

Its a good idea to encourage people to spade vehicles

After my comment on your recent Boycott review of WT here is my assesment: Gaijin needs to say what most players do (the average). Do they play multiple techtrees? Do they only do 1? Once that is done, gaijin will see that most pleyers don't research multiple techtrees to their conclusion becuase the Grind is too long. As I've said before 39 days on continuous play to unlock only ground vehicles is way to long for a game that has 9 tech trees worth of Ground Vehicles. Double the number with Air vehicles. 35% booster for only 3 matches is not worth anything, and premium time really isn't valuable at top tier because of how little it gives. I think that Gaijin needs to fix an RP limit for each rank. Rank VIII can not cost more than 350k rp no matter if they add new vehicles. A cap so that the grind doesn't progressively get worse as they add more vehicles. The game is already grindy enough and most are already buying premiums or premium time because they know that they have no choice to get to top tier. Gaijin needs the funs however, they are constantly in lack of money paying for advertising they really don't need. 70$ is outrageous for a virtual tank that will cease to exist once the game servers shut down. Once gaijin knows who they need to milk, then they can say whatever they want. Improving the grind is not in their interest as we saw with the boycott. They don't want to and they don't need to. Those who bought 70$ premiums have already payed. They have the money, they don't care if you never come back, the metrics don't matter to them because they are the only game on the market. If another game like WT comes out, then yeah, only then will they try to make things better. But I believe Spookston when he says that they will try to push those aweful economy nerfs through outside the patch notes.

The SL is a bigger issue for me, every vehicle cost 1. Something million SL& another 800k SL for ONE slot while earning maybe 50k with multiple premium.

Why would I spade vehicles if I don't like them? No

There should be NO stock grinding in the first place. New vehicles should come spaded, or at least in a competitive condition. It is WRONG to give players pure suffering after they already grind for the exp and sl to buy it.

Convertible RP shouldnt cost GE to use.... make it cost 1k or 5k SL per thousand. Your still gonna have people spending money on premiums ofcourse, and remove wagers from the Chests PLZ!

if they made the game fun, easly accsable. i think more new players would come and give them renevue. i played America germany and russia without prem time or prem tanks and it was fucking fun. after that the grind was so bad I went full pay to progress. it was fun until I reached br's so compressed that some br's like 8.0-8.3 germany was a 91% uptier (yes I fucking counted my uptiers I was that mad) while playing 8.7 russia I almost never got any uptiers. i didn't play America after ww2. sweden was pain in the ass at 7.7 with the strv 81 but the ikv 91 was fun. 8.0 was better and I think this is where I quit the game. it was an endless moneypit that wasn't fun anymore

It'll never happen. Knowing gajin for 7 years, it won't happen. XD

There is NO reason why the grind is SOOOOO long. Its all about money and game addiction, Gaijin is known for being kinda trashy in grind and microtransactions (enlisted is like 10 times worse).
