DISCUSSION : Battlefield™ Coins Megathread

[CoD_Is_Number_1]

Yeah, there’s not a chance I’ll be buying Battlefield coins with the state this game is in. Deluxe and early adopters do deserve coins (early adopters because the game dropped 55% off a couple of weeks after launch). I do love how DICE/EA is trying to bleed a bit more money out of players despite Battlefield being in one of the worst states I’ve seen it in.

I hope that all the cosmetics will be available if one uses enough company coins. If some of the cosmetics can only be gotten with Boins it will be a bit unfair.

Well, DICE has already made it very clear that ELITE skins/kits, for sure, are only obtainable by Boins. They are less clear about the Epic (pink), Rare (blue), and Uncommon (green) cosmetics. From what I’ve read, it seems that new Epic (pink) cosmetics, to be introduced tomorrow, will also only be available through Boins.

Which sucks because the game is already lacking cosmetics, and now that new ones are here we still can’t use our company coins for anything.

EA has to recoup something after Belgium told them to GTFO with their Ultimate Team Gambling

Hopefully, this means prosthetic for $100.

@bran1986 @HardAimedKid

Just remember that’s 300 total for you cause you gotta cover us

Nope, your maths are incorrect, it is $500 - $100x4 to cover all four limbs, and $50x2 for both eye patches.

I enjoyed this game at launch. Other then bombers needing a nerf to their resupply and ju-88 bug fix, it was great I was enjoying it quite a bit.

6 months later, planes have been destroyed for some reason, they need a stall mechanic when turning, and guns with 300 ammo that overheat.

Armor is useless unless you hang out on the edge of the maps
Infantry still run through explosions like nothing happened while you get shot across the map from a smg

The people in Belgium that considered lootboxes gambling should be relieved of their duties.

You go to a casino to buy chips and hope to win big.

You buy FIFA points to buy packs to get big players.

Sounds exactly the same.

yfw you realize the reason April is devoid of content is because DICE is working on new skins for people to buy.

You’re guaranteed something in the pack. You’re not at the casino.

I don’t even play this game so why the hell would I buy boins?

[Cannon-dale10]

Not sure if anything they offer will be worth spending actual money on. I have a lot of Company Coin and there really isn’t anything worth using them on. I think DICE needs to realize that we as a community care more about maps and game modes, actual content. Rather than an Elite character with a special animation if you win. We aren’t playing fortnite for a reason.

@Titan_Awaken

gasp Oh no! Who could have foreseen this!? EA monetising their own game? Who could’ve thought? I hope Anthem isn’t next!

What the hell are you going on about?

r/woooosh

Obviously the sarcasm went past your head so I’ll just explain it normally then.

This is directed at no one in particular:

EA introducing a “premium currency” (and hence monetisation) to BFV is/was no surprise; any reasonable gamer would have smelt it a mile away. I’m not saying it’s ‘immoral’ or ‘evil’ or any of that stuff (that’s for another time), I’m just simply stating that it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, hence my terrible, sarcastic post.

So this chart is a partial lie then?

[dA_9_eL_81]

Boins incoming… Already the term boins gives me long onions… Pappa here is going to put the Family on an oatmeal-diet for the rest of the month in order to afford those sweet prosthetic limbs…

I want my enemies to be shocked in awe when Timmy the Terminator shows up on C-flag in Rotterdamn…

[dA_9_eL_81]

Also… A big up to the community for this thread up until now… What are Dice & EA expecting to happen now…? That we are going to spend 5/10/20 EUR on skins for tanks and solideroutfits on a game that is so unbelievale bad executed and missing basic supported by the devs…?

#BoinAdieu

[dA_9_eL_81]

I will not be buying Boins

[Tullzter]

Is Boins real money? why the hell would anyone want to spend money on a game that plays worse than most free-to-play

[llPhantom_Limbll]

While BFV is in such state, I’m not wasting a single cent on cosmetic items. I bet those will be overpriced anyway.

Reasonable people will not waste money on cosmetics. The game needs more important things right now not premium currency.

6 months later, …

I was the same really thought this was going to be great, I loved the maps and was looking forward to regular content, if Boins had been released at launch I might have picked some up ( I have never bought a in game currency before ). But 6 months on the game is slip downhill instead of getting better. Battlefield is my game if I have some free time this is what I play… untill this lat patch I have not played for a week now.

So disappointing, I am sure the devs have not meant for this to happen and I don’t place blame I am just gutted Battlefield has lost that something that meant I could play and play without every having enough.

So no I will not be getting Boins unless there is a big time turn around in the way this game is turning out.
