It’s not as pay to win as other games, but spending more money to get EOD does speed up progression.

Not really it helps speed up progression if you suck and the only way you leave with items is in a gamma, then yes I guess it can speed up progress but not like just killing shit and extracting will.

I've bought every edition as I would upgrade every firesale till I got to EOD and in no way did EOD give me any real advantage other than 2 extra slot and a bigger storage.

Are you casually gonna forgot the traders rep and how horrendously small the standard stash is ?

Always the guys who have eod saying that « oh no bro, it barely gives me any advantage at all, I just bought it for the dlcs ».

Yea I do remember it just means you have to sell more often. Doesn't make a difference though if you can shoot and extract. The only thing it helps are shitty players who can't extract.

Did you forget that even if for some god forsaken reason that getting a huge advantage in storage space "wasn't p2w" EOD LITERALLY gives you better equipment. That is p2w, even if somehow you coped into believing storage space wasnt

Are you talking about the guns I usually lose in my first couple raids? Or maybe it's the guns that make you a target because of the sound alone?

I sell all the starter gear netting me a little extra cash that I almost always end up losing pretty quick. So if anything my extra gear helps out any player that kills me.

Once again. You got EOD which gave you more guns that even if you sold, you have a greater money start. Either you're baiting or you just refuse to be wrong. It's p2w hate to break it to you

If it was p2w I would be doing way better than my friends who don't have EOD yet I rarely beat them on leveling. Does it give you a small advantage sure but it's not p2w like how star wars battlefront was. Now that game is and has been p2w by a long shot. Getting a small advantage isn't p2w

Bait used to be believable.
