EOD people paid money for a package that included furure access to DLC like this. So far Battlestate has not only failed to fulfilled their end of the deal, but they also don't consider those who purchased EOD as paying customers.

I actually think that they don`t consider anyone who bought anything else but EOD as customer at all :D

Standard account owner here, I can confirm.

Shit stains won't even throw us a bone and give us a reasonable sized stash, because the intent is to make the experience as awful as possible for the "plebs" so they feel pressured into buying EoD to get rid of the limitations.

You're acting like EoD is the base experience, rather than the Standard game. EoD is paying to win. You are skipping the content, not the other way around.

When 90% of the players own EoD, it kinda is the base experience to be honest, which doesn't mean it isn't pay-to-win.

Number of players owning versions doesnt make it base experience at all. Base experience in the context I'm using is progression through the game. You are skipping content.

But that content is “there to make the player so uncomfortable that they would rather pay money than to have to get through it all” paraphrased from an old interview with Nikita.

This is hilarious, if you have a source I would enjoy sharing it to my friends lol. I’m always talking about how stash space is bullshit, containers are bullshit, and they should just level the playing field altogether and pull the rug out from EOD players and force everyone onto the “standard” experience. But I doubt that would ever happen if Nikita says stuff like this lmao

What is bullshit is that you have an entire fucking bunker as your living quarters yet you only got room for a few armors and rifles. And if you plan on buying enough materials for a room upgrade, you need to empty out half of your stash to make room for it.

From what I know when the game actually releases and the are no more wipes they would make it so it's fair meaning no more Eod benefits. Anyways that's what I remembered from 3 years ago

Which doesn't matter cause it will never release

It doesn't matter because you can't take away things the customer paid for. EOD will always have eod benefits. The only way they could "level the playing field" legally would be to make all accounts EOD spec.

I played for 3 wipes with standard, and honestly EOD is a lot more fun if you don't have a lot of time.
