RP logic

[nosh]

Can anyone tell me, why after 58mins of playing Mig-29 SMT in SB EC with 19 kills I get just 5107 research points for Yak-38M? And technically loose 250k SL? I simpl do not understand how this is calculated anymore... I just see that it's absurd and makes 0 sense in terms of rewards.

No worrys, i don´t even know how people play jets in SB. I took my phantom out, think; "Oh boy, now i can actually use the long range on those missels" and later realized, i have no idea how to tell if a 10 km away radar target is friend or fow. Since then i never tried again.

You're playing a rank 8 Tech Tree vehicle and trying to research a Rank 6.
There are research penalties to non premium vehicles researching more than 1 rank apart.

YAK-38M is out of rp efficiency range from the Mig-29

Why? What's the logic behind this besides implementing artificial barriers to generate further incentives to pay money?

Exactly. Welcome to war Thunder. Gaijin cares only about money, first and formost. If not only for about money.

To encourage people to grind out/play a competitive line up instead of rushing down one branch.

The real question is how did you get to Rank 8 and never learn how the RP mechanics work?

Being simulator battle with a top tier jet and that amount of time spent you should get way more than that, even if you researching tier 1 plane.

Last time I check they didn't work like this.

It has always worked like this.

You should check again lol, look at the bottom of any vehicle card and it’ll tell you the max vehicle research efficiency tiers, it is sort of annoying but compared to its other video game counterparts I like it better because usually you are forced to use one vehicle to get the next, with WT you can use any vehicle from a selection of tiers which is nice.

Okay, give it apparently has been like this since longe time... still... what's the logice behind it?

Same as it was earlier when you asked.

This has nothing to do with encouragement to play xyz, it's literally forcing you to do that. Cause if you don't you'll get a minimum portion of reward for playing a whole hour. That's like saying: Oh you want to go from A-B by car? Well ye you can but it costs you a massive fee if you don't go there by train. So you're "forecully incentivized"...

And who would rush down down a single branch? Why would you do that? Like this, I'm forced to play a lower tier in order to research a lower tier vehicle, even though I'm already much higher. Which happens when the just insert new vehicles into branches. Why lower the reward instead of removing it completely to be clear about the intention?
