You designed a bottom feeding system to make a long and often depressing grind. Ageist almost imposable odds.
There is some kind of return sort of ... of justification that you will be the one bottom feeding others, once you reach high enough level. If you stick it out that long that is?
ChrisK: You've just described every PvP MMO in existence, from Eve to
Planetside to World War II Online. Look at MMORPGs like World of
Warcraft - how many times can you do a quest that starts "Kill 10
of the following creatures..." before it feels like a grind? Yet 15
million players can't be wrong, right? I don't think the casual
players are looking at the odds, the grind, or the long-term
results. I think those players are in there having fun, enjoying
the battles, getting excited when they upgrade or buy new tanks,
and admiring the beautiful scenery and vehicles. Also remember,
this isn't the end-state for this game. We're going to continually
improve and expand it for years to come. What you're seeing is just
the beginning.
