User blog comment:Alfred cloutier/For Those Who Think Spending Money on the Game is Meaningless/@comment-1934436-20151221033144

Sure you could just use real money to buy the "best" weapons and bots, and then only practice with them until you get good enough for top tier, but then you'd be missing out on like 80% of the content in the game. What's the point of that?

Some players, myself included, don't care at all about playing in top tier. I find it extremely boring due to the lack of variety. Everyone has the same stuff and uses it in the same way, there are no surprises. It's fun to use bots and weapons that are considered underpowered or obsolete, it makes the battles more challenging and the victories that much sweeter.
