I took a time off from the game for a while. And i came back to it thinking is this still the same game? What happened to the medium and large crate? Is the pity system really gone and that players can roll it indefinitely without a guarantee system for a new tank?
Back when opening 30/40 medium crates guarantee a lower tier premium tank and opening 14 large crated guarantee the new top tier premium tank i feel like i was happily spending tons of money to the game because i know my real hard money will worth something. When they switch to blueprints system, i no longer buy BP or top up anything at all because even i get the jackpot, it is a 50/50 between the tank and blueprints.
But now, i can buy hundreds of bonds and keys and i still do not get the rewards if somehow i am unlucky as hell. I understand the game needs money to run, but this is outrageous.
I used to still buy the operation pass to get the tank from the final reward in each season. But now, i have almost all the tanks in the game up to tier 13, that most of the rewards from operation pass are already in my garage. So further excuse from me to not spend anything at all to this game.
I am willing to spend money for a game i enjoy. I am the guy who bought AMX-32 platoon that got my post pinned in this subreddit when i was first starting out this game at level 1. I am no potato, i have 62% WR over thousands of games since. But i no longer enjoy this game. There is no fun and objective anymore. My joy was to collect tanks and i was happy there were at least some guarantee to get them even if i have to pay some money. But now, none.
I don't even find joy anymore playing T58. I am a miserable player, playing T58, trying to find meaning in this game, while also ruining other people's day telling that this game is shameless.
