You raised the price on your season pass for what reason! Are you joking!
For what reason do you think you can raise the price on the season pass.
I don't recall ever seeing you changing the price for this. Did not get a email about anything!
Greed will only make me remove this game from my Steam account!
This is a free to play game but I will not support your game anymore if you don't drop the price back down to were the they both were at! 4.99 an 19.99 + tax .
Sad that you are even trying to do this in the first place !
I wait for your responds . Thank you for your time.

I doubt that WG will post a response to your question here but this has been discussed on their Discord server. The price increase is considered by players there to be due to inflation. I've bought every on since the beginning and they haven't raised prices before. They had increased other NA and EU prices earlier, but not that one.

WG's response is that you get the license benefits included now, that will make the battlepass easier to complete and you'll end up with more rewards. WG staff staff Tankisa said:

... I understand the frustration about price. But we decided that way Battle Pass is more convenient to complete. More people will grab more rewards from it.
And also there are quite a lot of Kitcoins in it now. So overall value seems right

but i'm here and i'm reading all your thoughts 🧐
https://discord.com/channels/481445776178806785/1112660114529333309/1113826280383729724

I'd been buying the license anyway so the amount I pay won't change. Before the price increase when I bought the liicense both week 1 and week 2 would be available and could be completed simultaneously. I completed both weeks in one week. That didn't happen when I bought the pass today. Getting to the tier 6 tank will be a little slower. On the other hand I'll get some kitcoins. I'll have to see how it turns out.

I'm also concerned that players on a tight budget might not be able to afford the higher pass. The battle pass has been the best value for money deal around. It still looks good, but some players won't be able to afford it.

Well, i am pondering if i should buy this month's battle pass. The tank seems to be okay and the Kitcoins alone can save you get more can save you 3965 gold if you aim for the maximum of the Retropia event :)

It still not worth it if it only a Tier: 6 tanks !
I will not support the game anymore!
That is just me! .
Greed that's all it is. They have lag servers , bots and crap match making! Guess it's a good fall back by saying it inflation.
The how world is pull this crap.
I will not take part in this shi_ show.
Good luck to you all.

The new price of the BattlePass has come as a bit of a shock :steamsad:
Just at a time when many, many folks are cutting right back on pleasurable and/or discretionary purchases...
Not the smartest move WG! But then y'all certainly appear to be driven by an all consuming greed motive. You can literally spend $160 AU and still not get the new T777 and camo.
@ WG: If you aren't willing to try to understand and then adapt to the rapidly changing state of the world's fiscal realities... then that's your choice, I suppose!
I'm not sure if I will purchase the new BattlePass or not? I've cut streaming services, cut much eating out, suspended most hobby purchases... and I'm one of the lucky people!!!!

General advice of experienced players when asking about crates is always "Don't buy"- no matter if there's a tank you want, that tank will later release in a bundle for 10,000-15,000 gold alongside camo, all equipment slots unlocked and free garage slot.

Now, it's only my opinion so don't get offended- but if you have to cut streaming services, buying food and hobby-related stuff off just in favor of one game and bunch of pixel goodies in it? That's a solid no. It's better to invest into passion and material stuff; no game lasts forever and the more you spend, the worse it'll hit once the game closes its servers.

...I'm not sure you've understood what I wrote...

I have 3000+ hours and 300+ tanks.... Why would you give me advice on crates???
You don't even have WOTB installed on your Steam account!!!! I was talking to @WG in this instance!
I haven't HAD to cut these things.... I've chosen to, due to the fact that is what sensible folks do when there is an economic crisis. Don't worry about me being offended, try to comprehend what the person means ... before replying; perhaps???

Edit for spelling mistake...

I'm having a general rant @WG! I've read and understood your OP.
Crikey! How prissy do you wish to be?

I'm ashamed to say; that after all my complaining...I've just bought the BattlePass.
I still think the price rise is excessive. Sigh! I have succumbed. I have no honour :chattering:

That's ok. Succumbing to temptation is one of my favorite things... ;-)

You mentioned T77, which was tank that was released in crates and complained about spending 160 australian dollars and not getting it and the camo- therefore that's why i mentioned crates and why everyone will tell you never to buy them.
No one from WG will respond because they don't read these forums, therefore tagging them with "@WG" won't do anything.

I understood what you meant, i just pointed out what i found interesting.
That aside, i personally don't find it game breaking that they increased the price from 5$ to 8$ on battlepass.
That's still cheaper than anything in in-game store.

See; this is the problem with comprehension... I didn't complain about not getting the T777; if you don't understand what has been written... then don't knit pick! Please!

What I said was; "You can literally spend $160 AU and still not get the new T777 and camo."
That's me noting that the deal offered for that large amount of money doesn't guarantee the customer the either the tank or the camo. The tank is 30 charms to guarantee getting the tank, the camo is just luck. That deal I mentioned only gives 25 tank charms if the customer doesn't get lucky. So for many folks the tank will cost around $200 AU.
I agree that the BattlePass price rise is not game-breaking, just disappointing in its timing...

You wrote "You can literally spend $160 AU and still not get the new T77 and camo." which can be easily interpreted as speaking about yourself in 2nd person. It sounds like speaking from experience. That's why i assumed it was the case.

That's how gambling works; you risk money and whenever you get tank before having to get enough charms depends on crate-RNG. People will sadly buy them no matter how badly low the chances for getting anything are- which then results in complains about not getting a tank despite spending alot of money but not enough to get all the charms.

I'm sure there will be more well-timed events or anything else to enjoy in-game without any problem so no worries.

..... Again; no it doesn't. It sounds nothing and is nothing like me speaking about myself in the 2nd person. It may sound like that, if; for example, English is not your primary language. Please stop this embarrassing carry on. You didn't correctly comprehend what I was saying. It's that simple!

One thing players can do is check the prices in WG's Premium Store. I'd already bought the pass but when I lookede the price was $1 USD less. They are slow to update their own store so it could change, but it's worth a look.

I've also heard that the gold bundles on their store include kitcoins, but don't show it in the description. I haven't spent the money to test it myself.

It comes down to greet, money, and it is a gambling game, all kinds of gambling methods introduced.

I don't see them increasing my rate earning of GOLD for watching Ads.....
