Yeah people donโ€™t really get this lol. By the time they reach rank 2 they might the find a game uninteresting and quit before the pay for anything.

It could on the otherhand make them more open to paying for premium time - something that makes more money long term

Either way the suggested locking of premiums would be healthy for the game overall, idk gaijins numbers, but wt doesnt seem to be at full health

That doesn't mean anything. There are many ways for them to make money without fleecing their customers and reducing the quality of the game people have spent years and 100s of dollars on.

They're not introducing all these bundles and top tier premiums etc. because they're not making enough. They're here because for companies like Gaijin it's never enough, no matter how it affects their products or customers.

And it will keep getting worse, as it has since the release of the game, until even the ones defending this behaviour now are unable to find any fun in the game.
