    This is a pay to win game !?

    I have 3 questions that are :

    1 .Such as Characters in Overwatch or Street fighter can't up their level in anyway ,
    all characters hight or low rank are the similar level but For honor can up their level to get better and upgrade weapon and armor.
    And also we can purchase money in game for open Random Pack to get better weapon and armor.
    I would like to know that ...Is For honor different from overwatch and street fighter?
    That aren't 100% your abilities and skill but it's your items to help.

    2.The box for open premium pack in scavenge gear.
    this is a random pack but someone said it's up to your level.
    Is it real? I would like to know that when we open the box at higher level
    get a better gears more than lower level??

    3.A number in white rice Grains symbol
    What number is called and what it means ?

    Thank you

    I wouldn't call this pay to win but I sure don't like it in a title I payed full money for! If I pay a full price for a title I would like everything to be even in the game, yes, also cosmetics!

    You will eventually unlock everything if you play enough, Nothing is restricted to those who put money into the game (Such as League of Legends, World of Warcraft, etc. Micro Transaction in For Honor are different since they only remove the ''Time you have to put in-game''. Therefor people who cannot afford playing 10 hours a day can have the same cosmetic than someone who play 24hrs 7 days a week.

    The reason I don't want it is because it puts pressure on developers to make things too hard to gain without spending money, instead of just picking progress speed that is fun. Maybe they did pick the fun pace but because there is a way to pay I can't be sure and it is annoying.

    its not p2w at all. with the savage packs it scales with that characters level. so prestige 1, open a salvage box and you get up to prestige 1 gear. like others have said the stats you get from them only affect the 4v4 modes so far, so 1v1 and 2v2 are still skill matches.

    You can buy Steel with real money. While random, there is a pay to win element to the game.

    I just played a bunch of games vs AI and now have prestige 2 and better gear than anyone I've encountered in multiplayer.

    Not pay2win. Play2win.

    People paying arent at any real advantage. One, you can earn in game steel without paying, and pretty quickly if you are decent. Two, the gear doesn't really help that much, I have al blue gear, didnt pay for it, earned it by using the crates you get by beating story mode, and I havent really nticed an improvment. Its mostly cosmetic. Three, there is champion status, but again, you can get that without spending real money. It doesnt cost that much steel. If you play often, you can get more than enough steel to rebuy it every time it runs out. Overall, it doesnt benefit them that much, just gives them acess to certain things quicker.
