The most ridiculously priced piece of Downloadable Content I have ever seen.

[DMX50_]

ridiculously expensive for what you get. Totally not worth it at this price 

 

[Throll]

T-44-100 medium =>  45 Euro ? => most expensive VIII premium in game ???  realy ?

Lowe = 44 Euro ?

etc..

252U heavy => 40 Euro  ?

[domnulrazvan]

Yeah ... Cause it was a hard marathon tank. So it should be expensive ...

[mArtinko5MB]

i will try to get it from a marathon in future, if there will ever be one

[IronSpear]

Too much by 10€

That's true but it's because WG totally screwed up the marathon.

 

They made it too hard and then when they realised their mistake they botched a quick fix by just extending the time.  They assumed everyone would easily get all but one or two tokens and so they made the tokens ridiculously expensive and expected every one to get 9.

 

One of the main problems is that with a 7 week marathon (or however long it was) the chances that a player will be away on holiday, or for work, is very high.  For example, the extension pushed the marathon into the UK school half term and so I missed the last week as I was on holiday.

 

So having made the marathon, too long and too hard, the tokens too expensive and so the price of the tank too high, they're now forced to continue selling it at that inflated price for fear of fallout if they lower the price.

 

With this is mind it makes it easier to understand why the latest marathon is so much shorter and so far, easier (10 kills took me 3 games yesterday).

t44-100 is crap bcs u always get VS tier 10.so i have him in hangar but never drive.better i take obj-140 hes same but obj dont have enemies tier 12.so always on top.i think better t54,bcs its not expensive,and have good armour+gun not bad

[Cobra6]

45EUR for a tank which is to all intends and purposes absolute garbage.

 

You're starting to lose the plot a little WG insofar as to how much you value your own digital goods. It would be pushing it if you'd ask 35EUR for it, 45EUR is just idiotic.

45€ LOL, I only payed some 14€ for mine, cause I didnt have enough chink and jap tanks to do the missions in. So it is worth 14€, but its NOT worth 45€.

 

It all depends of how much do you value your own time 

 

But if you were playing the game either way, It might be a fair deal. I guess WG was reasonably happy, as lots of people got tokens and there was lots of players spending time.

Yep, I was playing the game anyway at that time, so it didnt require much more time spent.

[SlyMeerkat]

I will get this at some point

Did a WG employee hit the wrong button on the keyboard. Is this a typo or has WG taken leave of its senses

Every r would drive this op tank if it was 25€

[Kooallu]

cheaper to buy t54 prot 1 and its almost same tank

[Rokim]

Yah,both are rus so auto 30% chance to bounce anything,but still t44 is much more agile with better gun handling with just a little worst armor.
