Was going to play/grind up to the 70% discount...I thought win/win for me and WG.

Nope.... only completed 30% yesterday........absolutely awful experience. Win rate a total joke....numerous consecutive 3/15 losses in 3 mins. I tried in Tier 10 battles as I was being trolled heavily by MM at tier 8.......teams were just beyond belief.

Sorry WG I'm going no further. There is some serious tomfoolery going on with the RNG and the MM somewhere. I understand the laws of averages and probability....but this strays way out of those scales.

 

How come every time I stupidly click to use the crew/xp boosters, it is like a big RNG switch is flipped? Every shot I take is then a ding/zero damage crit. Every shot on the max outer aiming circle. Every shot to me....pen/module damage/fire.

 

I honestly don't mind/expect losses especially if I play bad......I don't mind your 'maskirovka' marketing to get an over inflated in price bundled tank for 'free' or discounted, but I can't/wont do it with your blindfold on with my hands tied.

GG WG.

This has been the worst "event"in history of events WG pulled off,and its not even halfway done.

Platoons consisting of 268 4,obj 705A,snowballing tru randoms easy.

With new maps that have crippled every other nation beside Russian,game comes down to having these unbreakable walls mowing down opponents with their awfully huge DPM.

 

If you <WG> think anyone is gonna play up to lets say atleast 50% coupon in order to buy this tank (since its so obv that you were going for this and not actually giving it away or anything else,hardly 2% of players will actually earn the tank),well they prob wont cause event is broken and most ppl will come to 50% of mission or even less.

 

Thanks WG,not for this Edited event,but for destroying matches in next 2 weeks.

It does not work like this.

 

If you get to 90% then you got all the bonuses. You will only get the tank, no more freebies on the side.

 

This is correct. The rewards for passing a stage can either be obtained by playing or by acquiring the entire bundle, but they cannot be obtained twice. The more consumables you win by playing, the less consumables you get in the bundle. If you check the Shop offer after unlocking every stage, you will see that the contents of the already completed stages get removed, but the remaining ones stay.

I have the same feeling, activating personal reserve is signal to MM to put me in bad teams every time...

only unicums will be able to reliably complete it through the fastlane missions. Only way to complete this as non unicum is to have no job or school and play every waking hour..

 

And because of this, after marathon is over I'm gonna play only arty and will target only Progetto, to ruin their experience...

It is in the game, if you click the Italian flag in the missions section.

YES!!!!!! I was going to buy this tank but now I have a chance to get it for free! Just hope the missions are not impossible.
(jumped up when I saw the announcement)

 

 

Haha, i doubt then more then 10 % will get the tank free. Especially when greedy wargaming lowered PEGI to 7 , at that age kids they hardly now to put 2 legos toghether , nevermind understandig tactics, cammo and strategy . But kids at 7 have money...

This is 1 burn out marathon. Don't think many will get free tank. Hoping for an easy going tier 6 marathon soon

 

i agree.... it's too much. better they gave t6 premium and twice less XP requirement, not 312k. 
 

suro222, on 15 April 2018 - 06:15 PM, said:

yes that ... for 14 days, 80% of players without surcharge will not be able to get this tank ... can not that easy task? sorry for english

 

This is like this: 

Total BASE XP needed = 312,000 so it goes to

312,000 BASE XP divided by 14 days =  22,286 BASE XP DAILY

22,286 BASE XP  =  44.57 battles needed daily (if you average about 500 BASE XP per battle)

44.57 battles multiplied by 9 minutes = 6.6855 hours per day of playing WoT to accomplish this mission.

 

So, in conclusion, THE TANK IS NOT FOR FREE. Of-course 2% or crazy gamer's will get it (maybe), but as it was intended to Buy premium for 17 euro, its fair. But the events name - No. 

What i will do, Buy 3 artys, and will go hunting Progetos for the next 2 month.

I am not saying this maraton is easy, but so far so good. Some missions I did with harder, some with easier option. Definitely better then xp+kills maraton. One think I dont like only base xp counts. Prem acc should be valid as well. Looking forward to drive the new autoreloader :-)

You don't need no special reason to hunt down SPG's. The fact they exist is reason enough to get them back to the garage.

It happens to all of us from time to time.

[StinkyCamper]

Actually camping on spot is very high right now, because of the low arty damage. You never had before a heavy tanks siting more then 10 secods on same place. I would bust arty damage at least 30 %.

[DurkaDurka1]

Loving this Marathon, by far the best one WG have done and I've done them all: WZ-111, Super Pershing, Pilot 25, T44-100, FV4502, Dicker Max, Heavy Tank VI, and T34.85M

 

In the past we've had to grind each nation: 135000 damage with 135 Kills or 150000 with 150 kills, all we got the tank and a garage slot, Just look at the extras we're getting.

 

The time scale is about normal as most had  2-3 weeks to complete

 

Yes this is tough but its fair as it's open to everyone by using base XP, Too many players on here wanting the world for only playing a couple of games.

 

To those moaning: you don't have to go for this. Just play normally and take the free stuff you receive.

 

But it's very easy to grind through if you put a little time in. Just chuck on some boosters, head down and grind away.

 

[Psticide]

please make more missions to bounce damage so all maus and is7 players suicide in the open .... it provides such amazing enjoyable matchmaking at tier ten , u know, like a fine dining vomit food poisning experience ....  poison your own matchmaking more with such great missions .... keep at it , u are offering such brilliant gameplay and opportunties for the tomato players who now have another excuse for their non teamplay behaviour. 

 

oh and do i need to mention again u have missions that force me to play alone and not in platoon becuase i have to be nr 1 in team, and not top 3 so both me and my teammate can play together to do missions ? nah u guys dont give a rats as about teamplay and platoon play ...  all u care about  is selling junk tier8 premium tanks
