  2. That should teach to you not fight out of ignorance.

    Well, the idea is that "You're ignorant of the topic" isn't an argument, really. But saying "you're ignorant of the topic because the claim X you made is wrong/faulty and here's why that is the case" is a very good argument, which was the case here.

    Simply put, if infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters randomly manage to make one coherent argument, then said argument can be bad for any number of reasons (i.e. because it contradicts itself in parts), but not because it was written by infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters.

    Though the latter are highly knowledgeable about Shakespeare.

    Another microtransactions thread..

    I'm not against if it's visual stuff only.
    I'd hate to see "keys" for opening some chests with money. It's an awful practice
    I don't mind boosts, but I think I'd rather buy a subscription for that - boosting XP and currency income x1.5-2 than normal
  6. Yes...

    There are Many like it,But THIS one is mine.

    yes you can complain about seeing them now, but if there was no talk about it on the forums and E.C ended up with game breaking payment models. Then you should continue to remain silent,if it doesnt bother you thats fine. For the rest of us, we want to bring the issue to attention so its NOT an problem by the time of release. People post models they like, they dislike/downright dispise. All of which can be a guiding tool for the Devs.

    I understand your stimulus of creating yet another thread and I do appreciate your desire to speak up.
    People are welcomed in our community =)

    No complaint, since I'm not feeling touched and/or troubled by this. I'm just wondering why people can't check out the "search" results and continue the already existing discussion.
    Many good points have already been made by many people in those threads that are very worth of checking out. Opinions that Devs should see and consider.

    When we create threads - we don't own them. We are just topic starters, the participants make the thread, not you. You can only support further discussion, "owning" your own posts just like anybody else

    I do understand that reading a 10 page topic is somewhat easier than reading a 100 paged one, since you kinda feel like the end is somewhere around the corner. But really there is no much difference besides that feeling
    But, well, since the thread is already here, might as well keep going with it

    in particular look at the penetration , 1st is normal ammo 295mm, 2nd is gold ammo 375mm,
    3rd is he (irrelevent here) so approx 27% increase on pen

    Similar percentage here on the tier 6 gun 29% approx. 150 mm normal , to 194 mm gold

    Now I hope my maths is correct or I'll look like a twat ;) but 27%-29% is a pretty decent increase.

    Can't wait for War Thunder tank battles. Looks so much better and promises more

    But we are straying away from the topic

    This thread got so off topic. However, we all know there is going to be a cash shop. Especially since this is a pvp game the shop should just have things like armor pieces to customize armor, weapon skins, and some non-p2w buffs (XP or currency boosts).

    What I am wondering is if I buy an actual copy of the game will I still have to buy the other factions via micro-transaction in the shop. I would so put money into a collectors edition to display in my home but there are going to have to be some benefits like all factions, permanent boosts (Or maybe a boost for the first 2-3 months), and some mod items that signify the full game and/or the collectors edition was bought by this player. These are things that should not be obtainable through micro-transactions.
