KillnU_, on Nov 15 2019 - 11:49, said: Why only 1 bundle per tank ('cept for Lansen) instead of 4
different bundles, including a barebones budget option, like all
the previous frontline bundle offers had? For the past two
weeks I've been debating on LT-432 vs EBR (which was originally
previewed) and had just about convinced myself to get both. But I'm
not interested in these bundles currently on offer. Might have even
been happy getting the Progetto in place of the EBR and still
bought two, if a barebones was available, but when they come with
extras I don't want I'll just wait and hope that reasonable options
are offered at a later date. When a longtime pattern
changes, as in going from 4 bundle options down to 1, you have to
wonder why. Knowing it's WarGaming, I have to suspect greed. Well
this backfired on them, 'cause today I'm spending $0 for no tanks
instead of ~$70 for two like I was anticipating. Please tell your
marketing dep't that their machinations have failed.DomoSapien:
I don't have too much insights into the
math and whatnot that goes into coming up with these sales, I
suspect it's because they're all extremely sought-after vehicles,
and at the end of the day we are a business. By that logic
everything we do is motivated by greed because businesses
ultimately aim to be profitable. Even giving away the Well-Deserved
Reward last November - yeah we gave a bunch of stuff out but there
are still business reasons behind it.
I will say this: these bundle offers might be attractive to someone who wants one of these tanks in particular and doesn't want to roll the dice on Christmas boxes. While the boxes have the best dollar value, if you specifically want, say a Skorpion G it may be more prudent to buy a 70 dollar Skorp G bundle, get a month of Premium + equipment and boosters with it; as opposed to investing the same amount of money in boxes and hoping you'll get the tank that you want. I know 70 bucks is quite a bit of dosh so it's up to you to make an informed decision as to what you feel will provide you with the best value.
At the end of the day I can imagine being one of the dudes who spends 200 bucks on boxes and doesn't get the tank they wanted most is probably more frustrating. Ultimately, as a consumer it's your right to decide what you want to spend your money on, and if you feel that the bundle options don't justify the cost, well I respect your decision and commend you on your frugality.
