Dog tag prices and gain

[Blue Butterfly]

Being inspired by Taylor and Gangoo post regarding the game i felt the need to cover the cosmetics part.

Its been 2 and a half months after the update of 1.1.1 and the introduction of the new currency and cosmetics called dogtags so i feel like this is a good time to have small chat about it

Before i get to the main point lets note that i played ssl ,grinding basically my dailies, just to see the new dogtags or to collect the cosmetic coins the intended way every day till now.

This was done easily, with the help of friends on discord or randoms committed to the same purpose, and as fast as possible with around 10h/2 weeks.

So i have to say a huge thanks to any player that cooperating and helping others for the sometimes annoying kill with x weapon (where x is a low base damage weapon).
For those kind people please continue to be like that and show the "healthy" side of the community.

Additionally i feel kyle is kind of greedy since you may encounter a good looking one/ fitting your profile picture and thus forcing you to spend irl money to cover the difference of the ones needed to fulfill the demand.

Being that committed i saw a few interesting things regarding the dog tags earned.
-Not only there were odds to get dog tags from the shop but also some of them didnt cost cosmetic points but gears instead.
This isnt necessarily bad if you dont have the 5 daily dogtags achievement but for us that have it its annoying seeing such tags instead of fancy ones.

-There are incidents of getting one tag rolled multiple times in the same month.
I thought i was the only player that had encountered but being part of an active community server we realized it was more common. What made it worse was that the tag found by some of the players were the ones costing gears and not cosmetics points.

-The amount of cosmetics seems to be randomized for every mission.
There are mission that can be pretty tough without cooperation of the players in matches named dailies and all you may end up getting is 1cp.
This can be annoying since players have spent a decent amount of time trying to find the weapon to kill or deal damage when you can just get a mission "get 50 xp" or "play 4 rounds" and get 5.

-The ability to get maximum 20cps (assuming you skip) is very very rare.
Doing the maths so far i have collected 1099 cps through them.
(14 average cps while skipping most of them so make it 9 without skipping)
So far i ve spent 900 on 49 daily dog tags(levels & achievements counting too) and i am happy since i chose the ones i liked.
But there is one thing that disappoints me...
Someone needs to spend 2 and a half months just to collect the bare minimum of the cheapest legendary(that came in the second update actually).


What do i suggest:
-Have the reward of each daily on the bottom left of it so we know if it will be worth the grind
-Raise the reward up to 10cp per daily mission since most tags are over 300
and as a result the probability to get 35cp/day
If not have the reward based on the difficulty of it or the duration needed for it
-Offer the ability to buy a previously seen tag if not skipped and not keeping it only for 24h
-The skip reward should be a 10% of the cosmetic points value and not 5 no matter what you get with a minimum of 1
If not like that, have a price when skipped based on the rarity of the dogtag with the values below or something similar:
5 for commons
10 uncommons
15 rares
25 ultra rares
50 legendary

What would you suggest to be different then?

I agree with everything except

kyle is kind of greedy since you may encounter a good looking one/ fitting your profile picture and thus forcing you to spend irl money

You are never being forced to buy a few pixels of cosmetics. It doesn't unlock content, does not give you a competitive edge, does not remove ads or other annoyances. It is purely vanity
