Pay to win and gambling
Hello community.
So the title says it all. I’ve been playing for a couple a months now, and the gotcha mechanics in this particular game are pretty nuts imo.
As skilled of a player one might be, once you enter a lobby with players who have vastly better weapons than you from the premium loot boxes, it’s almost unplayable.
The other day I picked a weapon off one of these players, and after trying it, no wonder they have such an advantage. A scope with virtually no recoil, and two or three shots to down an opponent.
Even if one were to gamble on a premium loot box,
you might get an utterly useless weapon for your play style.
Even the free premium summer weapons, it’s impossible to get the cannon since it’s only 20 per hour, and even though I have enough golden balls to acquire multiple, it’s sold out literally right away.
The game is great, but the play to win mechanics make the game unplayable for any new players that try it out. Hence only 20k active users, and even those numbers seem inflated.
I’m level 140, overseer one, but the game is very quickly loosing its lustre.
Curious on your thoughts …
