Heard a few times before getting into WT (Ground Forces AB) that Premium is pay to win, so i tried it.. and screen capped every single time i placed in the top 3. Two weeks free v two weeks premium. First week i did free, next two premium, last week free.
Results.
Free - Seven 1st
Twelve 2nd
Seven 3rd
Total - 26
Premium - Seven 1st
Twelve 2nd
Eighteen 3rd
Total - 37
Plenty of so close 4ths in both but just dipped out
Difference is obviously my larger amount of third placings in premium, but, the last week in free, specifically 5 of those days i was running around using the Panther D a lot..and getting absolutely caned in it. Dropped it and the Tiger to pump my BR down and stop coming up against IS1's and everything else that seems to one shot it and started getting back into the top three. The two weeks premium was mainly tier two and low tier three which i find easily the most fun, and less one shot action, whereas free was tier 1 into 2 for week 1 and then week 2 was top tier 3..back down to low 3 and then 2.
All up i didn't notice any difference in gameplay
at all, how easier it was for me to destroy or be destroyed or anything else. The main thing i got out of it is that tier 2 is where the fun is at, high tier 3 can be frustrating for me going against the Russki gear, although i really like the Tiger, slow but she can take a mauling and keep on swinging.
Halfway to grinding out an IS1 atm to see what is like to be at the helm v the Panthers. Should be interesting. Tried RB but didn't like the half mix style, SB with the larger maps and lack of icons was very nice but the wait times were painful so i only ventured in four times, if you could get an SB game like you could AB it would be brilliant.
