Reminder: You can fulfill the tasks ONLY in chronicles events.
I was around when the A-26 C45 was being put on a event and I grinded day and night on that thing, and this is no different but it seems it is more difficult to get these tanks/planes. I understand people like the grind and the sense of fulfillment but when its taking up my whole weekend just to get some tank I don't even know will be good, it just isn't worth it anymore like the A-26. Just put in better tanks/planes or just don't make it event only and make it for a simple match
No germans :,(
Countries used in the event change each day. Look at the calendar. Germans will be in tomorrow.
time to play again, this time for tanks
Once again, Gajin has messed up with an event and the multipliers for certain difficulties. I get 6 kill in a RB match on Vyazma entrapment on day 2. The multiplier clearly say 2x for RB mode of the event and I got 6 player controlled vehicles meaning you only need 6 kills and no victory is need to ensure the task. Why don't I have the task done....or is it because it is a 5.9x multiply. I just don't want to have to spend more time in events because of mistakes in the system.
So where in your "in-game" store is the ability to buy the missing chronicle events???
Gaijin want people to play the game. If they play the game they'll pay money & the more users the more income. As a side effect more users means happier regulars as the servers are more populated. So Gaijin runs special events that require (at my rough count) at least 2 1/2 hours of grinding on the same map a day for a month in limited vehicle choices which new people wont have ...... But not an open map where regulars can take advantage of the intake..... Good job Failjin.
They dont even do premiums right. Exceptional vehicles should be buyable, premium versions of types in game already should be earnable. So the T34(Guard) shouldnt be buyable, The Calliope pay for etc
So far I'm under 30% win rate for this event. Loss after loss after loss after... I feel that those who are able to complete their daily events in 3 hours or less are lucky. I know I won't be getting the Yak-3T. During the week I'm lucky if I have 4 hours after work to do with as I please and I definitely won't be spending the entirely of it trying to complete daily challenges only to fail time and time again.
Ok I've seem to have found a bug in the artillery strike mode. Every time when I move the the stick left, right,up and down my tank moves for no reason resulting in me possibly exposing myself to the enemy or not being able to escape the enemy. So please fix this bug, and btw I'm a PS4 player.
why dont you guys fix the big problems ... and by the way, this event is bullshit lol the reward is not worth the trouble to get it... its too unbalanced atm. fucking.... flying at 1000 kmh in a ME 163 passed a single IL-2 in RB mission berlin, and while i am going away from him he pilot snipes me in one shot... GREAT GAIJIN
why are you guys complaning its hard?? get a competent pilot or tanker or just go solo and dont just bomb the tanks and forget about the planes and dont cap right away ... just wait. in 1 match i completed 1 and half task so i say 1-2 more and i complete my tasks. Stop complaining and play it properly guys
