A change to platoons for the better
Saw this on reddit. A comment from u/OnlyRoke on a post about platoons having p2p characters in them: “‘Prisoners of War’ instead of Platoons. Idea is that the other side captured a ton of soldiers and officials of the other army and they'd spill the secrets on how to counteract their satellites, laser canons and tactical maneuvers (aka the mission buffs).”
This would really be a great way to let players actually use the characters they have. Many good characters can’t even be used in combat in TB because they have to be used in the platoons all the time. This makes TB very unfun. This is also just a much cooler concept than what the current platoons are.
More players would be more willing to buy characters this way too. People don’t want to buy things if they won’t eveb get to use it. It’s no fun just throwing a toon into a platoon and then not being allowed to use it. And not even just that, but now the ability to complete combat missions has been hindered too.
Also the whole thing with characters being in platoons less than a week after being introduced into the game is pretty ridiculous. The only way to fill those platoons becomes buying that character, and players don’t like that. It’s things like that that makes players quit playing.
