just release the article already? It's not like you could surprise
us anymore.

Ah, but that was then, this now, surely? Seems like people are still trying to fight a two-and-a-half year old battle and whip up faux outrage about the 'cash-grab' tank without acknowledging that the battlefield has changed.
Back in 2017, if you wanted 'Gold' ammo, you could just whip out the credit card, spend real money on Gold to get it, & Bob's yer uncle - pay-to-win; now (and since the first half of 2018, in fact) premium rounds are only available for Credits, which as we all know are free (just play the the game, stack the Credit Boosters that are given freely, and rake in the 'money' for nothing) - using premium ammo will impact your profit (or more likely loss) at the end of each battle, but your bank balance no longer influences the result - now it's generally 'play-to-win'.
Is the Chrysler K annoying in many situations? Yes. Is it invincible? Not by a long shot? Would I buy it? Hell no! Is it the Antichrist as some people try to portray it? No, don't be silly...

Sael_: ^A lot of this. You can argue that there are many ways for
credits to be consumed fast by the game in its current version, but
then again you can still just build more up just by playing and
it's pretty easy to obtain boosts, reserves and a lot of other
bonus through specials and missions. I can give you that the tank
is expensive for the in-game economy, it is and this can be
tackled, but it's not a cash-grab.

Sael_: No problem in talking about Foch. And no problem in
expressing any kind of opinion, no matter how negative. Just please
keep it constructive, don't go off topic and respect forum rules -
not just you, ToodlePips, of course, it's a kind reminder for
everyone. This vehicle is not op and
it's not terrible, it's a peculiar tank with niche gameplay, which
is the trend that the Advent Calendar for this year has taken thus
far. If it's not your thing, you can wait another day for the next
offer.
