beta you keep taking numbers out of the thin air, especialy regarding progression. here is what i have achived in past 3 weeks:
a) I had a license for whole 3 week duration because i am one of those “casual gamers”
b) i average about 15-18 hours a week
c) i flew in a squad AND solo, PvP AND PvE
I had:
-
30kk credits
-
8/8 ; 9/9; 9/9 In subfractions
After 3 weeks i got
-
9kk in a bank
-
9(30% more till 10)/12; 9/9; 9/9
-
Cerberus 3/9
-
Phobos 6/9 ->Prometheus 6/9 -> Prometheus X 8/9 (bought all 3 during this time)
-
Silent Fox 6/9 -> Wolf 6/9 -> Wolf M 4/9 (bought all 3 during this time)
-
Anaconda mkII 7/10->Grizzly mkII 10/10 ->Grizzly M 4/10 and->T rex mkII 2/10 (bought all 4 ships during this time, plus mk2 gear t4 for guard and engi + mk2 gear for t5 guard)
-
Katana 2/9 (bought during this time)
ALL of these ships i leveld in 3 weeks without spending gold on Surplus synergy from my premium ships, i grinded with determination only feds frigates in PvE, all other ships i half focused i mixed them with my prem ships that i had pre 0.9 because i ENJOY a game play and progressions comes just as a bonus to the game play. There is no need to be t5 there is almost no more content at t5 than what is accessible to you in t3 arguably due to population in t3 its even better there.
-i have 700 000 surplus synergy ready to be transferred from premium ships. (as an indication that i did fly prem ships as well and did not solely grinded my xxxx off here)
All of that in 3 weeks, in about 50 hours of game play - eliminate afking and derping/trolling general chat out of it.
Now you come here and tell me that it is freaking slow progression and will take me years to finish.
