ok, the contest is impossible for many F2P players cant get so many gold or find infected areas, because the infected areas no appears more during a day and the gold is so hard get many gold for a single contest because the players try to get Max skills and upgrade the heroes,
14 hours left and i cant complete the contest by 400K points why i need 26M of gold or find 296 infected areas in less of 14 hours, and spend badge tokens… how i can get those tokens for made the contest? lol
Yeah, this contest is ridiculous, but it is just another spending contest. I only got around 70k points for unlocking a red skill, which is ridiculous, the amount of gold needed to get one point is a bit high…
With, the infected areas, those rarely appear as well, around 3 appear for me each day which is just around 18k points per day.
This contest is ridiculous, and not F2P friendly…
Perblue only cares about money … there’s no way around it … when you start limiting what resources people have saved that CAN be used (preventing saving stuff in mailbox for contest) … and gold already had to get … the deals specifically made for contest its a joke… even with that there was a 20 dollar dollar on this one that got you approx 640000 points total that wasn’t enough to max out tier list let alone compete … I’ve joined our server strike it was our guild that started this movement on s21 … then perblue said it was because players play differently on different servers ! … however its sad f2p is left in the dust… truthfully the main thing need was badge tokens which f2p I really don’t know how you get them cuz mine came from purchases in which I saved up … even so I had 1000000 which was 3.4 million contest points which was barely in the 1% in the end
FreeToPlay player base is not the target group for this game.
As generations of players stated before without throwing in at least around $20 monthly you are getting nowhere real fast.
Save up ressources like gold, try to save up Bazar token, don’t remove infected nodes if it’s not necessary. This actions let me collect the progress rewards.
On S1 I even got to the 5% bracket with just the progress rewards 
because the server is void of active players.
