it's unfortunate that they are going down this route. stratagems are one of the main appeals of the game, missing out on primary, secondary, and throwable weapons due to not having a warbond isn't nearly as disappointing IMO.
something i'd like to emphasise for people who think this is no big deal, because you can earn credits by playing: not everyone has the game amount of time to play as you might. those players don't have a choice of grind for it or pay for it, for them it's pay for it or lack the stratagem.
Sounds to me like it will cost the same as any other warbond, 1000SC? Sooooo....it's click bait?
As someone who is really stingy on spending my SC until something interesting comes along it's fine. I saved enough do that when the last update came along I got the Fireproof Underwear because I just happen to use the flamethrower load out a lot, and I still have 1000+SC
It's fair for them to offer new stuff this way, because people will spend money or they won't, and either way it's not too daunting of a cost.
the difference is that, stratagems have been (until this point) been unlocked with requisition slips, not with the super credits. additionally, it might not be a daunting cost to you, but it might for others, always something to keep in mind!
Yeah I get that, * do understand the struggle, but is it something you can't achieve?
I mean, do you play the game to have fun or to get shiny objects?
I personally (again, my perspective and with loving thought of you in mind as well), haven't unlocked all the stagems because I enjoy the lower levels with randos and only venture upwards with a good squad that's gone through a couple missions already. There are those who take the game way to serious, and those who love to play dolly and dress up. Everyone is different and everyone enjoys the game for what it is: a broken, frustrating, amazing, repetitive, surprisingly entertaining time waster.
Keep that also in mind.
