how do you get more commanders?

[sjeggy6]

title says it all baby

[Commissar Red]

Random drops and buying them (Wehrmacht and Soviet) in Steam Store it seems for now.

I was wondering the same thing about vehicle cammo. I think that both just haven't been added yet.

[sjeggy6]

okay, and i meant the western armies commanders. the title didn't say it all :D
but it is not like i have to go online for that? my internet really sucks

[Static]

No I don't think you have to go online for them. I ever since I bought the western armies dlc I haven't seen the points from leveling up adding up towards anything (Like how you used to unlock things by fighting battles.) Therefore I think they just haven't added more commanders yet. It could be like Commissar Red stated and take on a TF2 kind of thing where you just randomly get things for playing the game? I haven't played enough yet to test that out though.

[Commissar Red]

The same, also drops (basically playtime from what I understand) and buying (for old factions). The stuff for USA and OKW havn't been added to the steam store but likely will. According to some people on the forums here they will release a confirmation later this week regarding the drop system. I guess we have to wait for that 'list' and see how it's mechanics work.

Hope this awsners your question so far.

[sjeggy6]

it most certainly does, thank you :)

anyone from alpha can confirm that the commanders previously unlocked alpha stage should be unlocked in the released version? cause i m getting nothing right now

[Blondi]

i think they explained this in the message you got when you were "legacy player"

i got that message, and as far as i understood, they changed the bullitens, i dont know if commanders count towards that too, and faceplates i think do count, but as far as i understood from the explanation, all legacy users get all bulletins+faceplated+commanders for free unloacked now, those that are all "lootable" after matches, and as the old system, you needed ranks to open up the bullitens and such ? now, they get looted just as TF2..........


thats why some things are rare and some are common.......


imo, this reaks for more dlc, and more costs, and i dont know if im gonna partake in it, im gonna watch and how it develops, and then buy WF, or not perhaps i dunno.......

but yeah, i guess you can loot the commanders/faceplates/skins and such, while most of the people have payed the jackpot for them.....
so yeah, its yet one another up the áss from relic and sony, thanx guys !!!!!

changing a model for a game is okey, but not to compensate the people that DID pay for it, yeah, kinda childish of them ....

Not from alpha but i've seen people from alpha stating they keep their unlocked stuff while others don't. The system obviously need tweaking as it is still flawed I guess.

I heared, that commanders, bulletins, etc can be "found" after a match. It´s kind of loot (kind of diablo influence?:D)

From look at it it looks pretty much TF 2 style, downside if there is "legendary commanders" with super king tiger and "soviet industry" german style in 1 command I will get pretty mad

But I would love instead have a ingame currency instead of random so I could earn points to a commander I want "shrug"

well, considering the "community" commanders are "rare" i guess so..... and yeah, it kinda ruins it for me too, so plz relic explain , why did we have to pay for the earlier commanders ??? and what do we get back now ? ??

You keep the earlier commander like before, I don''t know with others but I got around 12 spoils of war when I logged in ( I guess from buying the coms that you more or less needed to be in the meta)

why we did need to pay for earlier is just buisness strategy change, I will think they will add later you can buy each commander like before (but not to make a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ again like CoH2 did make) so the release sound more calm

on other hand I would love a TF 2 style where we could trade items away

[Blondi]

well, considering they already went down the "you have to pay " road, for commanders, it isnt fair for the ones that got the game in early stages, since they "payed"for those items, and people can easily "loot"them now.

in my eyes, its even worse now, and people will be even more disgruntled, since they kinda payed for it mandatory in the beginning.

i know its our own fault to buy that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ from the start, but imo, this is just taking our monies from our wallets, instead of "compensating"us for it.

so to put it simply, people that abandoned relic for them having the "pay to win commander"model, are now rewarded, since they can get that all for only 34.99, compared to the pre order people that got nothing more for 90 euros. and even then, they already put us preorder guys a knife in the back, to make the upgrade even cheaper than the preorder right from the start !!!!!!!!!!

i cant think of this as normal marketing behavior, and i think, i will really abandon relic from now on, just for this.......

we asked for normal model right from the start, we got the boot in our face, and now, they kick us in the ass, since all people that already bought it, get screwed for like 50 euros.

after 3 matches i got zero drops....
