Shame I am to stubborn to accept a Frenchie in my garage. :Smile-tongue:

Not a bad tank at all from what I have seen...

A 10% credit increase?  Meh, I would have prefered half price. Even then it is still a pain to grind with tier 10 battles and its large turret.

To celebrate this vehicle, we have a special offer for you.  Between the 1st and 31st of July, the ARL 44 will have its credit income boosted by 10%.  Get on the battlefield and turn your tank into a money-maker!


I don't really see how a 10% credit increase turns it into a money-maker. 50% might. 100% definately. 10%, not really. That just pays for the ammo.
At least the article was well detailed and pretty good.

Edit - What actually makes it worse is that the US server gets the ARL44 half price and with x2 credits due to their special, which is so much better than ours anyway. - http://worldoftanks....lution-weekend/

At first I have thought it will be at half price. Oh well... But the article about it's history and performance is nice.

2x credits would be nice cuz this 10% doesn't make much of a difference.

Yeah, thats a "super" deal. 10% for credits?? Come on! You can do better! What about 5%? Maybe 1%?

Your PR should be very ashamed. 10% is for stupid people. instead of this knocking offer you should not offer nothing.

If you want people play more french tanks give them real reasons not this bogus. Give them 50% discounts. Give them 20% xp bonuses. Not 10% credits on a <removed> tank.

What should I expect from wg since the game is having a lot of bugs and it allows cheats?! A CHEATING OFFER!

Oh wow. One of my most beloved machines. Was my main priority when French line was introduced. Riding now on AMX M4, but will rebuy after finishing with it.
Somewhat resembles WH40K imperial style for armour :Smile_smile:

then go play on the Asian server to see what's <removed> events.  This game is still in development and its fairly new., and i think it's progiding well.


Altought i think the event "tank of the month" should have more bonus.  +10% isnt apelative enough to me to finish griding bdr to buy this tank


the document about arl was very good and detailed, good job


Dear user please do not quote posts with profanities or use the same yourself.
As per the rules.

Meh.

10%

Meh.

I only play the Arla A thing until I have had x2 XP per day and then only to get past it and progress up the tree.

Now give a bonus on XP and we may be talking but this 10% extra credit is a complete turn-off.

Meh

Best Regards
Peter

10%? Seriously? You guys should lose your jobs, I'd be 100 times better at designing events than you are. Anyone would be, for that matter. Did they hire you on the streets Bangkok?

An increase of 10% credits on the ARL isn't gonna turn it into a money maker.

I dunno about you guys, but I have, even in random battles, the 105 to be more useful, cause I tend to use ambush tactics with this tank, due to the crap aim time, so I need to be close to get an effective use off it, the 90mm has shocking aim time and accuracy for what you pay for, the 105 has same reload and does more damage, so if your shooting the sides off tanks, all is well and dandy, 300 average damaged makes even tech8s caughtious about engaging you
