You can get super credits in game, so it's not like they're actually paywalled.

You have to grind samples and requisition and medals but nobody's complaining about those 🤷

[–] Kaldo@kbin.social 6 points 6 months ago

Well I dunno about others but I'm both playing less and when I do play, on higher difficulty missions people explore and open caches way less than in the early days.

While technically not paywalled, for me personally it's definitely going to end up being like that. Down the line that's be fine for a live service game but it's a 40€ purchase and it's only been a few months, I'm not sure I'm a fan of this model in the long run.

SC are SC, but "Premium War Bonds" are not purchasable via those and require actual cash, am I wrong?

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You can definitely use SCs that you find in-game to buy warbonds. I own all three of the currently-available premium warbonds, and I only paid real money for one of them. The other two I bought with SCs I picked up from missions, and I currently have another 1K SCs ready to buy the next one.

Wait, ferreal? What am I missing? I thought I tried to buy the premium war bonds with SC and it sent me to the cash money menu. 😶

On PC there's a button at the lower right to buy with super credits, if you don't have 1,000 it might try to take you to the store, I'm not sure

Thank you for being the only one to actually help an exhausted fellow helldiver out. Go with Liberty, citizen. 🤘🏽

[–] all-knight-party@kbin.run 2 points 6 months ago

No problem, just want people to be informed!

[–] all-knight-party@kbin.run 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Supercredits are what you use to buy the battle passes themselves. 1,000 a pop. At 119 hours in I have bought the two recent ones with super credits, but I bought the other one with real money on release.

I have close to enough to buy the upcoming one as well with supercredits.

At 119 hours in...

Looks at ~65hrs

I know nothing. 🥹

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

you are wrong. Super credits are found in game, and can also be purchased with cash. There is nothing that requires cash in game.

Yes, I've said as much in another, earlier reply, but thanks for reading. 🤓
