time for entire year to be able to create platoons. And it's still
lame cause not everyone thinks that spending even low amounts of
money for online game is a best idea. In fact I dare to say that
majority of the player base will not buy premium because it's a
free game and ppl play it because it's free2play and because of the
fact that they have many reasons not to pay for anything. So
majority of the players won't have that option. Forget about groups
of friends playing together. Without constant flow of cash you are
not gonna enjoy it. I'm so damn disappointed. If it would be
something like "buy premium for once, get an option to create
platoon for ever" it would be bearable, for me at least cause I can
pay money through the internet. Hi kids? Wanna join platoon with
your friends? Forget about it or get a credit card ya nerds! But in
that case it's soo uncool and that kind of statements will pop out
one after another as soon as more ppl will find out about it :/MrVic: When I was under the age of 18 years of age. Amazingly I was able
to play monthly pay to play games. (Which cost more then WoT and
that was a long time ago) But there will always be those that want
to only play for free and are able to do so. Making a purely free
game will lead to no game at all as it will run out of funding
fast. Servers and staff costs to continue to add more and more
maps, tanks, events, and more cool features is not free. Servers
don't run on hamster power (tho some game servers I would swear
they do hehe) I am not sure on all the payment options they will
have, but other games use things such as prepaid cards, or support
paypal, Or most kids parents might actually see what their kids are
playing 
From what I have seen on pricing to play on premium the 12 year old 2 doors down that mows my postage stamp sized yard could afford premium every month and have enough cash left over to go to the movies (and we all know how expensive that is these days) and thats just for 1 attempt to cut my lawn. I am pretty sure if a 13 year old kid can be on a cell phone texting his friends he can find away to get pocket change required for a premium
Not to mention the same person does not have to have premium each day. Just one person in the group. But maybe this one hypothetical person could work something out with someone they live with.
Supporting a good game is a choice for a player.
