That''s because most PhDs are smart enough to avoid getting into arguments on the internet where they're clearly either misinformed or wrong and subsequently avoid being intimidated enough to bring up their expertise in a completely unrelated area as evidence of their intelligence.

Correction: most other PhDs avoid bringing up their academic title when arguing about computer tanks on the interweb.

Haha, people were buying BT-SV codes from sketchy russian sites for over $100, and that was without the amount of gold you get in that package. Now that it's available in the gift shop, people are going "naah now that everyone can have one I don't want it!"

Hellsau posted:

Er, wait, isn't 6500 gold and 6.5 mil credits an incredibly awful deal for $100? Wasn't it like 24000 gold and the BTSV last time it was for sale?

This was a couple years ago, but if I remember correctly the gold + premium time from those gift boxes was worth $50, and the remaining $50 got you the tank(s) and the miscellaneous stuff. So the Pz2J or BT-SV cost $50 minus whatever that tangible stuff is worth to you.

This $100 package gets you:
- $26 of gold
- $10 of premium
- $1 (I'm being generous here) garage slot
- "$65" of credits
- BT-SV

So you're either paying $63 for the BT-SV or getting it ~for free~ depending on how you look at it! :eyepop:

Nevermind.
So does WG actually expect people to play this event for just the T23? Why would an FCM motivate anyone, I'm sure anyone who wants one of those already has one.

That was mean. I just want people to engage in critical self-reflection while calling people "loving idiots."

There's literally no hope for you if you consider any degree as a benchmark of intelligence. It's a benchmark of many things, but intelligence isn't one of them. I say this having performed at least 0.4 seconds of critical self-reflection and evaluating my current self worth (based on the degrees I hold, of course).

I'm really hoping you're going to tell us your PhD is in Philosophy (based on your Profile), because that would add a nice exponential to the hilarity that is you posting anything at all. I kind of doubt it though because with that much contemplation Philosophy PhDs tend to have a far firmer grasp on cause and effect than you do.

It is a fun little tank.* I don't think anyone would do this JUST for the T23. But the T23 is 7k gold if you have it.

*Shut the gently caress up in advance, I kinda like it.

frood posted:

Even if they have an FCM, I believe they would give the gold amount for it.

12k gold is noting to gently caress around about. That is a serious amount of gold.

Edit: Looking at the WG wiki, they improved on it a lot since I last checked it years ago.
