Nice - but having barley played this week, Frontlines will take priority this weekend.

Somehow Wargaming is making sure that I'm playing less and less. Thanks!

Too bad this isnt doable in FL since I generally team up with clanmates anyway...

[__Eric__]

Only playing FL this week, so no weekend special for me!!

Barrack slots .. hi

You know what, this:

 

"Deal at least the hit points of your vehicle in damage"

 

Is actually one of the best requirements you can have as doing your own HP in damage should be the least you are expected to do in any battle you play. You basically have to trade your own tank in a 1 to 1 (or better) fashion in terms of HP.

 

Nice one.

Nice

Nice that it is a bad one this weekend, with the Frontline around and all.

[zmogustapke]

Where have those x3 exp. weekends gone? 

[Simona2k]

Nice

[Ch1valry]

Weak and skippable.

One of the worst regular "specials" with mediocre rewards. At least put a x3 exp on top of it if you want to encourage people to play randoms over the weekend.

As tedious as it is becoming, Frontlines it is then.

 

Edit. Btw when you mouse over the icon for team effort in the Sneak Peek of May's Specials it says "x3 crew xp per battle" Can you confirm this please?

I kind of agree but is it not also another nail in the scouting coffin at the same time though for any players that may be using mainly lights? (I'm assuming damage doesn't include spotting / assist damage)  I liked the finish in the top x requirements.

 

Also noted (and yes it can be interpreted that it counters my sentence above) is the requirement to do 1k spotting damage but its open for tier4+5 vehicles who may find that tricky?

Platooning is a grim experience these days. Heavy platoons are nearly always bottom tier. Scout and TDs get nowhere and you might just get lucky with mediums. The rewards for this 'special' are rather scant too.

[Sirebellus]

A weekend off doing a mission... I don't play in platoons

We had couple of x5 specials lately, let's get some breather time first.

This! The weekend specials were so much more exciting back in the days. Actually all specials were more special then. But why should WG make special specials when people are playing anyway

Or you can play Arty - read a book, watch TV, do housework and still fullfill it by clicking somewhere near a red tank twice.
