How p2w is this game going to be?

[DarknessSephirothX]

This is my main concern.

[Atlantus]

At the moment there is nothing inside that makes the game P2W, but it is also just a playtest.
However, there are already potential things that could make it P2W.

For example, the modules that you get from crates or special mechs that are yet to come and could then cost premium currency or if you can buy/build new weapons/parts for your mech, that could also be problematic.
I really hope it won't be P2W but we all know how it's going at the moment, we just have to wait and see and wait for the release.
Then we can tell you if it is P2W.

Yeah, I'm not too hopeful with the mod parts locked behind the gacha store.

[DDENN]

good mods really made different.

we soon find out once the game comes out. currently the obtainable lootboxes from battlepass are the one who gives different stat boosts

if its hard to obtain and gives absurb stats . yes definitely it will be pay to win. but for now its hard to judge the game since its not yet released

[Zapp]

Yes.

[Laughing kookaburra]

it's a chinese game it's going to be P2W like hell

[Frostbeast]

Right now. Mods look boring and almost useless. We will see.

Clearly none of these people played the beta. Mods are obtained in the battle Royal mode. You kill pve bosses and can extract the mods from the match without having to win the Royal. Though if you do win you get to take all the mods collected.

ok that's good to know. I was wondering if the only way to get them was through boxes.

Minimally from the looks of it. The only thing they could even sell that affects gameplay are mod parts, but those are so barely effective at anything that a 1% skill increase over an opponent would completely invalidate them.

Honestly 99% of the microtransaction aspect looks to be cosmetics only.

[DonThaIll]

Very.

Every mod has a bonus but also reduces another stat. I don't think it's that big of a deal.

Reduce stat you don't need like melee stuff for mechs with no melee or lock range for mechs with short ranged weapons and you are gold. Plus top A quality mods give 100% bonus over the malus, where B quality gives 62.5% and C tier gives measly 25% bonus. And in addition to that it's difficult to get mods you want and you can't put them on multiple mechs so you are very much at mercy of RNG.

Unknown. Depends on what they do with the mods. Currently the mod system kind of sucks. Also depends on generous they'll be with blue currency and how expensive newer Strikers will be.

Unfortunately, even in the older beta tests, there were confirmed cases of getting boosts for a stat you want with a negative that means absolutely nothing cause it doesn't affect the hero or a stat that matters to that hero.

So the potential is there unfortunately
