With each tank added, the game gets a little bit more boring...
We love all these free new tanks, and we will love and pay for the DLC's as they come along. But there is a problem, common to all "collecting" games following the Panini sticker model. As the number of tank types increase, so do the junk yard and excavation sites clutter up with stuff you have already got...
The game becomes boring, until that missing Goliath or King Tiger turns up. It's going to get worse with each new tank added to the game. There is a balance between grind and easy progress, and the grind will only increase, for anyone that does not want to fix or dig up endless T34's, Stugs and M5's and is trying for that missing museum exhibit.
It happens with the Panini stickers too, with each pack purchased being less cost effective for the buyer. With the stickers it's part of the business model. They just want you to keep buying packs. But with Panini, when you have lost all patience, at least you can send off for the missing stickers.
Perhaps something like this might work, an occasional email offering to sell you a tank wreck of one of the rarer tanks. Of course it would be expensive... but then it is rare!

i think to combat this they could make each tank have some RNG state to it, as in what the paint cleans up to look like, so you can try to perfectly replicate that old look.

I mean, if you really care, you can just buy the tank from the parts menu.

Thanks for the feedback. We want to add system in which you will be spending reputation points to manipulate the chances you get to spawn a tank you want. What do you think about it? :)

I think that increasing reputation could put you in touch with better contacts, who direct you to excavation sites with the rarer tanks.

I like that idea.

I like the idea of increasing rep and spending it to get these better odds.
But with the caveat they must have reached at least one of the top achievements like excavated 50 tanks, etc. And that's just to avoid ruining the game for someone new especially since it seems likely they'll get those achievements just getting & doing all the tanks in game now.
