Reminder: You can fulfill the tasks ONLY in chronicles events.
Sweet, ill won't see the sun for a week but then i have a PVD2!
Reminder: you can fulfill the tasks ONLY if you are unemployed.
actually, in my State in America minimum wage is more than 8$ an hour; so, technically if you work and just buy the events which are about $6 a piece if you work lets say eight hours a day for the two days they give you per event award, you could be done with all the stress and grind way before anyone else.
IT'S HAPPENING!!! Harpoon here I come!
WW2 chronicles events ... will it be like last time a majority being "the Soviets WW2 chronicles" and T34's fest for tanks and some Nation getting barely anything as events or have to wait a week before seeing one... Good thing there isn't any vehicles i really want out of this... Should have been made in normal games not in events...
Nice job having 2.3 tanks facing 3.3. Whoever thought of that should get a frickin' award. Why can't you guys have the same vehicles for all game modes?
The whole purpose of this series is to reflect the historical battles of WW2. The lineups reflect the actual vehicles used in those battles.
Smin1080p, So why is it not historical numerically as well? Because in 1941 Russia had 10,000 T-26s, 5000 BT-7s, and less than 1700 T-34s. So if you want to reflect "actual vehicles used" at this time, 50% of Russian teams should be T-26, 25% should be BT-7 and the last 25% should be T-28, KV-1 and T-34.
Sweet, new planes, time to fly :)
I can already see that as last time, the here explained challenges don't correspond to what is displayed in game. For instance, here it says that one of the tasks is to finish in first place while either winning or losing. In the game it says: win four battles while in first place...
Oh, and again planes get easier tasks than tanks... Talking about fairness. Tanks already cost more RP than planes...
Luminoth, Maybe that's because planes are harder to use well?
I'm saying goodbye to Warthunder for a while... I have already been gone for 2 weeks last I played was the modern tanks but everything else kinda sucks even though really love this game and am a lvl 80 player without premium grind. I've played 2 years and now it's time to say goodbye. Life gets in the way and as much as these vehicles are cool and all I'm not coming back... these events are dumb unless you have no life no family no girl no job and no resposabilities... cya! o7
Played some matches and was getting into it! Got all ready to buy some premium time and maybe a few golden eagles to use a coupon I got! Then I checked my stats. 1/10 victories? That cannot be right. Oh yeah, 70% activity! Oh well, saved some money and time! Fuck this event.
Im dont like the event, the same task for everyone it boring level over 9000, and the unbalanced level is stressful, i really want to have FUN.
