Watch this video at 6:10 he talks about de-spawning vehicles.He said you cant de-spawn a vehicles ,but if you leave it alone for some time it will de-spawn and you wont get a refund? Wont get a refund? Does that mean you have to pay for every vehicle you pull?Or am i just not understanding this.

Yes, vehicles cost resources.

I'm pretty sure that is how it goes. I can't remember how well the resource system has been talked about, but you should be getting enough resources to buy your tanks and such.

Just to clarify so there's no misunderstanding: We're talking about in-game resources here, not actual money. Resources are acquired by your character through territories that your Empire captures/control on the map.

I'm also pretty sure only customized vehicles cost resources to create, so pulling a stock vehicle won't cost anything.

Yeah so far we've only been told the custom parts are resource dependant. But obviously its not a huge deal so whether it is or isnt the case could change quite a bit during beta or even alpha.

And a bit off topic, but your sig is awesome Erendil. Would kill for that change to the mag and drivers not gunning anymore either.

That every time you get a tank it costs resources?

Pretty sure it's only the upgrades/sidegrades that keep costing resources.

For all the pretty pictures they've released there's really very little really known about how the actual game works at this point. They say one or two details every couple of months, presumably because stuff is still really up in the air and constantly changing. Which is fine. But, at this point, who the hell knows how any of it works.

Makes me sad, but pretty much this.

We really have no idea how stuff works at all.

Give me beta.

You pay for it ONCE.

Then it is free to pull.

Needs to be a consistent cost.

So it isn't like "I want to be a tank driver" and you can just consistently pull tanks for no cost or risk involved.

Need a good reason to roll infantry, you know?

This also increases the importance of getting certain objectives. Because then it is like "If we get this, then we can get this rail gun that will be useful for this objective."

as far as i understood:

you kill bad guys and get resources/bases = you get ingame credits and xp
with xp you can advance in the cert tree
with credits you can buy some equipment.

is it correct? or just an assumption?
I think we will see some sort of XP/credits gain booster you can buy for real cash,along with customizations and other stuff like that...
i don't mind people buying xp boosters,i would mind people getting special equipment or perks paying...
