I doubt Crytek will see this...

This new event is nothing but a cash grab.
I have played, and bought DLC skins for myself and friends and bought the game itself for over a dozen people to help support this amazing Lovecraft style PVPVE game. The main reason? For most of the skins you could get them by the real money currency you get from just playing the game. This showed that the company actually cared about it fan base. Some of the coolest skins were not locked behind a pay wall and some of the skins are literally pay to lose(we are not talking about Cain). But now you only can earn 50 a week? on top of that increasing the amount of blood bonds by 40% is just a kick in the sack to the player base. This game is one of my top 5 fav games, but this is too far.
As I used my earned blood bonds for 90% of the cost of the large event pass(Not realizing everything that happened), I will finish the event but I will only log in for the 2-3 hrs it will take me to complete the weekly tasks as there is no longer a reason for me to go do the actual objectives or look for PvP, or rotjaw. After this even is over, unless the Hunt team changes these, I'm Uninstalling the game, updating my review, and will not support the company any longer. I am sure there are many that feel this way...

The Pass itself is worth the 1K, 600 BBs Max is awful but you do get 10 additional legendary skins and a Hunter. What isn't worth it(though I'll have to see since 37GB is ass if the Verdant reward is available) are the 1K, 1.2K, and 1.5K skins that are very bloated in price.

I think most players only played to farm bloodbonds and buy skins, simply because in the base game there is nothing else besides PvP and this was one of the few things that kept players engaged in their game while doing so they took away what little there was, in fact after the event it will be a total bore. Instead of removing all ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ new content, they should have left it in the base game instead of locking it behind an event. I don't understand sometimes the strategic choices that these people have. All this stuff here had to be there since version 1.0.

For the rest, I don't mind the BBs issue, in the end they are just cosmetic and nothing will change, the only thing that will change is finding an objective/challenge that allows you to be able to play it even after the event.
Shall we talk about the quests? Come on CryTek... you can't do everything in limited time, give the players something to do.

I mostly agree with you, though my only issue is how inflated the prices are on the non-hunter skins now that the Accolades have been removed and relying on RNG for more than 50 BBs a week.

Yeah, prices are definitely insane
I also think they've changed the monetization employee a bunch of times, during the various streams from developers over the years I've always seen different people in that role

[WhoIs_Knight]

Humm here is the one problem I have with what you said, You no longer have to spend money to modify hunters

[Ash Princess]

100% removing accolades made the game ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥... I already uninstalled... Quests and weeklies make the game a chore

[MadlySoldier]

While I am just purely turned down by greedy changes. I still have some speckle of hope left, and plan to just play very little and only with friends or my lil brother. And the amount of Greedy Overprices stuff (despite what shill said otherwise) keep that speckle hope dimming.
That said, seeing people still criticizing the decisions and argue against the shill really give me hope.
I won't be surprised if the change is somehow "acceptable/worth" (considering released with big event huh duh) but who to blame but us that let modern games become whatever this is.

[Inv1s1ble]

I play the game, because the gameplay is lots of fun. No idea why it's that crucial to earn X blood bonds per time/game...

Circus music continues

[Baller's Gait]

I will never understand people who think skins and doing chores in order to earn skins are selling points. The game is fun and I've bought some cosmetics I thought looked cool to support the devs.

[Pulknest]

Remove bb = i dont BUY dlc anymore i cant support this
