MeanWhile Free 2 Play are struggling, PAY 2 WIN Players are doing this with resources


https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...Eg-K8sHU#at=30


No doubt in my mind this game is 100% Pay 2 Win now.


That guy has multiple infantry things maxed at 40.....no wonder he can just run around instakilling people with mines.

Their is absolutely zero risk if you have resource boost...Is Pay 2 win.


Meanwhile a free 2 play player like me has around 2-5 med kits or 2 -5 grenades.....

On a good day when the battle takes plays on biolab, I can get it up to 15 medkits 10 grenades lulz.


This is a joke.


I loved this game but lately with the resources change, I had like no resources at all for infantry..


Sorry SOE, at one time the game's hidden P2W wasn't that obvious...

Now the game has Obvious Pay 2 Win.

Re: MeanWhile Free 2 Play are struggling, PAY 2 WIN Players are doing this with resou


should i be the first to ask...?

R U MAD BRO???? irony makes me smile.

but seriously, just farm some resources if it's that bad. maybe you are a casual who gets bored easily but if you aren't, and don't want to pay for subs and boost, then just go to a place that's marked infantry and gain xp any way you can. rep things, raise people, hell, pull ammo sundies with a buddy and trade reloads. it won't take that long to earn the resources you need to stock up. maybe 1 play session if you are super casual.

you can also look at which continent you have the most inf. resource and just do things there and collect the gain every 5 minutes. you could also make sure you're in an infantry area when the alert points pop and that your inf resource is empty.

there's a lot of ways to game the resource system. hopefully the resource redesign will help but you have to be the kind of gamer that helps themselves first. if you don't pay you need to farm, there's really nothing new about that.

Fun fact: Dude in this video has an XP boost, not a resource boost.

EDIT: fix'd. Sorry. Wat.
Was busy considering how much of an impact the XP boost would have compared to a resource boost, since XP gives resources depending on how much you earn and where. Eventually I just got confused. :P

Like I said when I play in biolab, the best I could get up to is around 15 medkits and 10 grenades....Obviously Im using them while fighting at the biolab.

Sorry but I shouldn't have to fight at biolabs 24/7 to get just a small amount of infantry resources.

Also sometimes battles take places where their is no infantry resources gained thru XP.


As for me being a casual player?...LMFAO...See my stats I played this game since August of last year...I love this game....I Spent $60 on this game but Im not sub or have boost used right now.

When I did had the Sub/boost combo, holyshit was I rich...straight up pay 2 win.


The reources were never this bad as of late....Now the game really feels like Pay 2 Win.


Sorry man, this game is Pay 2 Win.

Fun Fact......XP Boost help you gain resources super fast....trust me I know since I had used Xp Boost before.


BTW He had +80 XP bonus.....NC had a high population.

Safe to say he has subscription which gives u resources boost/Xp Boost.


Thus this is the reason he has almost all infantry equipment maxed out at 40.

He is paying 2 win.

I agree. After the latest cost increase it got obvious that the whole resources thing is completely pointless and only there to limit you if you're a F2P player.

Pay and you basically get infinite grenades, hpkits, mines, etc. It's really stupid and they should just get rid of it as it serves no real purpose.

Re: MeanWhile Free 2 Play are struggling, PAY 2 WIN Players are doing this with resou


yeah that is what i'm getting at. if you don't want to pay the sub, then you probably need to farm. like you said you're using the things you want to stock up. so go to infantry territories and get xp. there are other ways to earn xp than "battles at biolab." so do those until you get your grenades up or whatever.

it's not impossible but it might be boring. that's farming.

I don't have boosts or premium, and I usually manage to have 40 of all consumables, even in massive fights when I spam grenades, C4, etc. It's all about careful placement - and farming biolabs!

Then the game wouldn't be fun...lol.


I play this game to have fun....Not to Farm Resources in order to have fun.


Before I use to get resources just fine playing normally without farming...Is been these changed with the resources that has screwed over Free players.

1 LOLz at Dreamcast tears.

2 I have a sub and an alphasquad implant.

3 Its great fun to spam AP mines.

4 Those were unusual best case senerios against bad players.
In reality you ussually get one kill with mine and sometimes 2. Its really rare to get 3 or more.

5 A sort of good shot can rack up kills faster with a gun than with AP mine spam.

Must be good to have practically endless Insta kill Mines.


Gotta love that Pay 2 Win.

Clearly you're lying, it's impossible to kill someone in this game without paying REAL MONIES!
Didn't you see how amazing his C4 was??? It was like 5x the explosive radius because he spent his REAL MONIES!

Don't worry I destroy Pay 2 Win players with my weapons.


Just imagine if I had decent amount of resources instead of starving.


Sorry but Pay 2 Win players have a huge advantage...Trying to deny with your sarcasm is pretty sad.


I remember back when PS2 was announced to be F2P, nobody wanted it to be P2W....Now people have accepted the P2W since it benifits them.
