I would really like to believe that devs have something in mind about that, since currently there is pretty much none present. And yes, i know that game is in Beta, ive seen that be4, when even upon release there is hardly anything new.
Sure, there are mercs to buy and loadouts to compose, but…
Ive been playing for around 2 months and i have all the mercs i wannt(i dont have like 4 of them, but i dont really miss them anyway), all with decent/good loadout cards. I dont need gold ones, if i have all good(satisfactory) parts in a silver card.
I dont buy cases, since i dont really need them. Ones i get from playing are enough.
At this point only thing that keeps me going are future mercs.
So i have close to to 100k credits, pretty much fully equipped mercs and im closing on lvl20.
Sure, i may like to have bit diffrent bits and pieces on some loadout cards, but generally im set. And considering that all loadouts are preset and there is no randomness to them(only which one you will get) its a dead end in terms of gettign rid of excessive money. You cant mix, merge or reroll cards.
While i do like new Missions system, it also part of the problem. Making creds became far 2 easy. I dont really feel any need to invest real money, since even without boosts i get more than enough just farming missions.
Game really needs temp boosts(like “card flip” that allows to take 2 loadout card for same merc into fight) and far far greater amount of variations and customizations with loadouts(half of them are crap, even highest level ones, im sorry but its true, ability to level up them is just scraping the barrel, its just 2 little). Otherwise average player will hit the Barbie ceiling(eg you got all the dresses there is worth having) in like 4 months. And online games are all about continuation, preferable measured in years. And goals like “get to lvl 99” are plain lame and hardly interesting.
Sure, in the future i may wannt to buy Rhino or Fragger, but right now… i have to keep my interest up by some other means.
Money(credits) sink.
First time I see someone claiming getting credits is too easy! I guess we are close to hitting the balance?
More mercs coming. No doubt a ton of other purchasable things as well. I doubt there will be a shortage of things to spend credits and money on, since it would defeat the entire f2p concept.
That’s assuming beta means beta, which so far appear to be the case.
The credit sink is trying to get all the silver, gold and cobalt skins. It will take a lifetime, for a player refusing to spend real money, to collect all the variants of loadout cards + skin combination.
i got 96hours game time on steam i have rhino fletcher and every gold cards i want, i didn’t buy it with credits just trade up. i have got 100k more credits. My level is 12, its happened in 2 weeks, so i aggree you can buy everything you want in 2 weeks. I need new good stuffs for spend my credits. This game should have never-ending aims for players.
yes, i hate english.
Simple question - why ?
Why would i wannt every high tier loadout card ? So that they could clog up my loadout selection ? Not exactly that they produce any additional value, aesthetical or practical(id love to have option to sell them, for maybe 200 creds per tier level, or even 100).
You cant even get rid(as funny as it sounds) of high level loadout cards that are inferior(due to personal preferences) to other cards of same(or even lower) level for same merc.
As example, i have 1 golden and 2 silver Kira cards and i actually use iron one. Sure, it has 1 less perk, but it has Dreiss battle rifle/carbine(i absolutele dread those burst fire ARs) and both of those perks i actually consider useful. Similar situation is with Sawbones - got golden one and use silver one, simply because its better(it has better perks and aksu, instead of that crappy smg-9).
Issue is not as much in amount of mercs, but in alternative ways in spending credits. I could buy Rhino, or Fragger. But i dont like those mercs, they dont fit my playstyle. I even add Fragger to loadout only when its required for mission completion.
Buying them simply to own every merc there is… meh. Maybe in a few months, when im fed up with those that i alredy have, but for now… meh.
I am on my 6th day, i got vassili , nader and proxy. And now ~32k Credits. On a i madeabout 15k+ Credits today. (Playing 2-3 rounds, going off, waiting for next mission…like that)
I think we need a proper money sink, like attachment to guns that are PURELY COSMETIC.
Like silencer, scope, skins , colors , stocks , gun parts , character faces… You know…!

From hints the devs have given all of that will most likely be coming soon.
