the CLASS 3P, why is it goes to German? its a South African Vehicle. the chassis is the prototype of Rooikat, and the turret is Olifant Mk.1B Turret?? wouldn't it make more sense if it goes to UK Tech tree?
The rooikat is a really good wheeled vehicle for Britain, being I believe the fastest in the game, so the Germans where feeling left out. Gotta make sure they have the best of every other nation lol. Seriously though, I presume it has a German engine or something.
Because it is a German Prototype that was a thing before Rooikat was a thing? TH800 and did go later for the Race to be the today Rooikat and did not make it because Class 2P was the Winner. Germany did make a lot of Vehicles that did not enter any Service like TH400 or the TH800 like this time, but called Class 3P so we have a "International" Vehicle So it doesnt make sense to give UK a German Prototype with the DM33 Option.
Yes Gaijin this is exactly what we need. More desperate new comers having access to high tier jets by skipping the grind. Do you have any idea how ruined top tier is right now? It's literally the easiest tier to play after rank I because of all the wallet warriors and people who fly high tier event aircraft like this. Isn't a game like this supposed to be challenging the more you progress? The exact opposite is what's happening right now.. Rank V premium/gift vehicles were a mistake.
agreed these events are too easy
KingOfGoblins, The aren't easy, just badly planed out by snail overlord
Good to see you still refuse to bring back RB multipliers for kills.. lets keep pretending AB and RB kills at the same thing and appear in the same amount.
Oh, and increase the assists required, which was stupidly high in the first place.
The Developers need to start understanding that Ground RB is a lot more complicated than any Air Mode, and quite a bit more complicated than Ground AB. We don't even get any multipliers for it, and the stakes for it are already outrageously high. I can't wait for Ground RB to become unplayable in the next few days!
Why would you tell us we can get decals but not show us what the decals look like
Good luck getting 12 kills in AAB when battles now end after like 6 minutes (from 4-13 minutes from my experience).
why again no multiplayer for RB/SB for destroying 50 enemies?
Because imbalance in the game means it was too easy for certain vehicles to achieve, meaning everyone else has to suffer for their lack of imbalance. Technically you can do the event with whatever you want, but in reality you're handicapping yourself if you don't use one of the meta vehicles.
Nice prizes! gonna get all of them (and then sell the russian thing and the german tank)
Good luck!
Stona_WT, Sorry for the late question, but how much will a star cost? 999 GE like last time, or more?
Will there be a standard tree ro.57 bis? It wasn't a prototype and it took part in battles.
this looks like to be the bis variant
_Reardon_, Nope, the bis has 2 guns in the nose andthis one has 4 of them.
uss wichita wasn't more suited for this event?
Right????
I thought Germany just got tier 6 event vehicle recently called C2A1...
