Recently I noticed (somewhere around 7.0) that tier 5/6 vehicles are very bad from a credit earning viewpoint. Seeing as we now know the credit bonus for damaging high tier vehicles was removed, it is now quite obvious that tier 5/6 just aren't being used like they used to be. The number of tier 8-10 vehicles have increased massively, as well as the addition of tier 8 premiums, players feel like they are being pushed into higer tier games with tier 5/6, giving them a hard time to earn credits even when they do manage to score some penetrating hits.
This make players play tier 5/6 even less, we have evidence that tier 5/6 play far more game where they are on the bottom of the list than they are in the top tier. Tier 8/9 are just so much more common, because we see that if you choose lower tier, you are far more likely to be on the bottom, and you have a far greater chance to earn credits in higher tiers, even without premium. Add premium tier 8 players, and you have a hole in games where tier 5/6 used to be top tiers. Numbers support all these claims, if you doubt that I can dig up numbers for you, but that'll take me some time.


Quote So now we have a huge numbers of tier 8+ vehicles in circulation. They are just way more profitable than tier 5/6, and players who try to grind credits in tier 5/6 are being punished, pushing them either to quit or climb the ladder to tier 8+.


Quote Is this the game you want? When you removed the credits bonus for higher tier vehicle damage, did you realize what could happend? I would really like an anwser on this one, and if you are going anwser, please don't make it a two word response.
Cheers.
