Plarium has been doing a really good job giving weapons, mechs, in-game currencty, etc. to F2P compared to a year ago:

• ECR with many weapons and sometimes mechs are offered at a much higher frequency.
• F2P Battle Passes has been offering weapons and legendary implants.
• More in-game currencies are given out on a regular bases.
• Events such as Pilot's Program, Loyalty Programs, etc are offering mechs, pilots, in-game currencies, etc.

In my opinion, the amount items Plarium is giving to F2P is quite generous compared to other games out there.

The game I feel is fair & the gifts weapons mechs given away are generous

Crates resources

Battle pass more resources weapons 

it all mounts up over a month

I agree with SuperSM simply because some legendary stuff costs more than other legendary stuff in the same gear hub tier

True, Legendary stuff in the gearhub costs way too higher than they should be. ECRs have become quite unreliable cuz it's luck based (I can earn enough resources to guarantee the main prize in a credit ECR) and so people naturally tend to ask for more resources (to purchase them directly from the Gear Hub) 

Compared to other games, Mech Arena gives a lot of its endgame stuff for a relatively lower price, though patience and consistent grinding is necessary. A decent chunk of rewards are always given through events, which is a major plus point, though it would be a nice to have an alternative method of buying gear. Buying things through ECRs have a significant cost-to-value advantage over buying the same thing from Gear Hub. If the cost of legendary items are reduced, it can become a reliable alternative where one prefers to get their gear immediately without relying on patience or luck

i agree it is a pay 2 win game somewhat now how else are they supposed to earn
