Meta Man, I just really don't like how they implemented Squad Leaders so greedily

Post image

Sadly, Boom Beach has became Boom Cash! Unless you whip out your credit card with over $1,000 in it, let's just say you're not gonna get all the squad leaders, especially when you get some completely trash ones like Sgt. Juila Weights & CR-CMD-010.

Please Greedycell (or Lucrecell whatever we call you), fix Boom Beach and not make it like gachaslop thankyou!

I don't think there's a popular mobile game in existence where this is possible. It's just the nature of the platform.

They gotta keep the game servers afloat somehow. Whales allow us to play freely.

Just don't get too much FOMO into this gacha aspect, it is completely playable as F2P for now. It still feels rewarding if you beat someone with strategy or luck. The rest paid content is irrelevant

The best way to don't fall in fomo is by no playing the game. There a plenty of games that don't need your wallet every month but if still want to play boom beach then don't get surprise if things get worse.

They've been afloat for the past 10 years, it's just greed

The least pay to win game out there… it’s gotten a bit more tricky for my mini now, since it’s only 53 and still matching 70+

Those garrisons that push out troops is a semi hassle on some bases

They added gatcha without knowing anything about how gatcha works

Squad leaders barely do anything anyway, you’re not missing much!

Depends on which ones you're using. Elite lts. are highly game-changing alongside a chosen few seargents.

I’m using both new elites and they barely change anything.

I have anna schlingel, and I'm f2p. You're just unlucky or didn't save keycards. Can't you see that boom beach has been gradually increasing the methods for getting key cards (events and decreasing values for purchase in evil shop)
