At least most of it overlaps with operation winter so shouldn't be too hard to get all the tester stars
welcome to Gaijin's annual cash-grab. Like many Holiday products, low quality to cost ratio.
OCanada, Cash grab? This has been their business model from the get go. I mean, not just them, but any business. New products aren't going discount, but they are 'on sale' ;)
Won a mission in Air Arcade with 90% activity in Swedish B18B (rank 3), didn't count.
Same with Soviet 4.0 line up in Air Arcade (All planes Rank 3+) - 98% activity, victory, didn't count. May be it's locked to Realistic or specific nations?
Same here, arcade 5.0 with Japanese (all III or IV), won, 91% activity, did not count ...
When I go to achievements, there are no Israeli Air Force, neither I can see my tester star count, is this supposed to be like this?
Same, plus I tried winning those 5 matches, no achievement obtained either
Xanthropod, Yeah they frak it up... every time there is a problem with Stars counter. It's a tradition for sure by now.
For 10 tester stars you will get special decal “Emblem of the Israeli Air Forces”. Will we get it if we bought a pack too?
Yes, if you buy a pack you will get in game immidietly, I checked.
is this a joke??? 9 day to get 12 stars but you can only get 1 per day???
read it again
look again, its from 14th december to 23rd january
Is this possible only on dev server?
Where do we find the daily task for tester stars?
In achievement tab in game.
lmao give me a break... complete tasks or purchase a pack in order to unlock the nation? nah, not even worth the time to test the copy and paste.
Then don't do it...?
Turbulenz_JP, lol I won't!
Gaijin. I just got the Kfir C.7 and the flight model is awful. It hardly turns. The indicated turn time for the Kfir C.7 is 26 secs fully upgraded and the indicated turn time for the Israeli Mirage IIICJ is 29.6 stock, but even though the Mirage has a longer turn time, it turns way way better and sharper than the Kfir C.7. Please fix it before it becomes a problem and people give it bad reviews...people won't grind for this
So what happens if you _don't_ get the stars?
Nothing. You will need to wait till we open the IAF for everyone.
Stona_WT, Hi Stona. I sent you a message in the Forum regarding the Kfir C.7. Thanks
