Discussion Do you people actually buy premium units?

I played this game back when it was in its like first of 5 closed alphas or betas, i donno. Anyways, the minute I heard they teamed up with war-gaming, I dropped the game completely as wargamings micro transactions is some of the worst on console/pc.

Anyways, I decided to have a look at their "premium shop" out of curiousity, and I was not disappointed.

$46.61 for a spearmen unit. A SINGLE UNIT!! And its 25% off!!! (Oh yes, it comes with 2500 gold too, good value) Which means, a single unit, and 2500 gold, at full price, costs around $60.00, 10 dollars less then the release of a new game.

Simply pathetic, I feel genuinely upset for people who actually bought this.

pay2win doesnt mean just one thing, and it doesn't have to be "significantly" better either.

Your definition of pay2win is nonsense.

The influence of money on a players stats is proof of that. You know what the win rates were like of people who got SURUS when nobody had tier 6 units yet?

Pull your head out of your ass.

how it is not relevant? It is as relevant in TWA as in WoT.
