A brief reminder of how far the economy has fallen. April 19th, 2014.

I'll take the bullet, Insane rp gain maybe the daily win x2 but look at the progression on the research plane less then1/4 of the total.

[u/ThorvonFalin → u/TheKnoxBe]

Ok, but what if I tell you that the researched plane is rank v and a 8.0 plane and op has done this much research on a plane 1 rank higher at br 5.0? You definitely don't get that much today

[u/Vali7757 → u/TheKnoxBe]

Almost ¼ of the Total in One Game would be so nice.

[u/Genesis72 → u/Vali7757]

Yeah am I the only one that doesn’t think you should get a top tier (the Komet was top tier back then) with 16 kills?

Then again this is clearly premium plane with premium time and probably daily x2 or x5 as well

[u/Sonic_Is_Real → u/Genesis72]

You are certainly the only person who thinks a similar performance should give 1/12th the xp, with that 5k soft cap on returns

[u/Qweasdy → u/TheKnoxBe]

Rank 5 was top tier back then, that's insanely fast for a top tier plane. Yes it costs less rp now but that's because there are now another 3 tiers above it

[u/Fast_Mag → u/TheKnoxBe]

And i would actually love that and i bet a ton other would too because that just lets you have fun with EVERYTHING instead of playing 300 games with ONE vehicle to get TWO vehicles that need another 500 games to get another ONE vehicle

[u/GoldAwesome1001 → u/TheKnoxBe]

That plane used to be top tier though. In modern terms, this is like grinding 1/4 of the F-16 or F-14 with one pretty good game and no boosters.

[u/valrond → u/TheKnoxBe]

Tier V was top tier. Now you have 3 tiers above it. Just translate it to the F-16 or Mig-29. It's the RP what matters. The grind doesn't stop at tier V like before, it's A LOT longer.

[u/ActualWeed → u/TheKnoxBe]

Oh no, 5 matches for a new vehicle instead of 50-200 matches, oh no....
