"To celebrate the anniversary, we are bringing back one premium vehicle to each nation for purchase - they will be available for purchase with Golden Eagles" - for now, we do not have plans to withdraw them after the Anniversary, so they should stay and be available to buy even after it.
Oddly the Conqueror does NOT receive the 50% discount. A few others that existed prior to 1.81/3 also have this problem. Waste of SL.
I was wrong, usually 550k... so managed to save 3+ million Silver Lions this time around when mopping up new vehicles!
An amazing game ruined by greed. Don't get me wrong, I paid my share, but there are tens of thousands of people who won't even consider paying when they realize that it takes about 150 euros or 500 hours (with 1 nation) to unlock the really interesting stuff that are jets, helos, ATGM launchers,etc. Just now the devs spent hundreds of hours working on helos, and only the most hardcore 10% will ever get to use them. That fact scared away all my friends from the game. Less grind=more players.
All I am saying is, if it took less time and money to unlock the good stuff, more people would actually commit and stay with the game. Many people don't spend more than about 200 hours with one game and in this game, in that time, you barely scratched the top. The current system literally scares people away.
will object 120 be on sale? i got a struggle - should i buy t29 heavy or wait for obj 120?
Thank you for clarifying about the anniversary premiums Stona. The Grant 1 and Firefly "Scorpion" seem to be just collector's items, the Chi-Ha Short Gun is a turreted tier 1 derp gun, the AMX-13 SS.11 is a decent high tier premium for France, and the PzIV/70(A) is a decent collector's item for Germany. But adding the Romanian Duck to Italy is a very good move since they have no really good attackers.
Let ships tow tanks.
why not for Birthday to give a free away of the E100 and or He162A1 which for players are playin since 2013 or earlier and also which spended more than 2500 euros/dollars ingame? thats a nice present
bringing back E100! Happy Birthday!
I've been at this for over a year now and love it. But I still can't aim. I blame my antique computer.
Is there no discount for French Char 25 t tank? I have unlock it and i must pay full price to buy it. Please explain.
Read the newspost, vehicles from last 2 patches aren't discounted.
