Yes, but not as agressive as battlefront. You can pay to skip grind, wich is still p2w. But enough people with buyers remorse will defend it in a few min.

No, there is zero p2w in this Game.
You can´t even skip the Grind....

Just look at evilgenius Post History and you will understand he is just troll-baiting.

There's no p2w as far as I know but I am only 20-25 hrs in so maybe I have not seen it yet.

And I deleted my free weekend character and started with a fresh character lol.

Yes, rumors, as that's all we have until the second season is released.

No it is not.
It is more "pay for convenience".
For example:
You can buy repair kits that let you repair one of your weapons on the stop without using resources.
The thing is, you can repair them by using junk which is literally everywhere using a weapons workbench which are literally everywhere.
You also get better repair kits by playing the game.
You can also earn atoms (the ingame currency for microtransactions) by playing the game, you get more than enough to buy anything you want.

So no, it is not P2W.

ok how about this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwsjCKxW3-Y

Same thing different video. Like I said, until the second season comes out it's all rumors. Just like telling people that only this update will be free, ignoring that every other update has been free as well. Not saying you said that but giving an example.

Since the true grind in the game is reputation, gold, legendaries. Nothing you can do in game gets those faster.

There is barely any grind though.
You will need junk anyway to craft stuff and, again, junk is literally everywhere as well as workbenches.
It's by no means bad and not necessary whatsoever.

Did you create a steam account just to repost a topic? There's a search feature

I dont think its pay to win when you can earn atoms playing the game and you cant buy loot so

There is no p2w in any of those games. Battlefront saved it self long ago.

What about the extra fast travel point with fallout first, or the scrap robot, or increased junk stash, or refrigerator, or the junk scrap kits.

You can skip the grind. If 2 people start from scratch. 1 person doesn't get any of the payed content, the other one gets f-1st, and 100€ to spend. After 20 hours the person that payed money is far ahead of the person that didn't pay extra.

So it is p2w, only because the game hardly any pvp it isn't as obvious as with battlefront 2 (before the backpaddled, apperently i need to mention that) for instance.
