not really limited tho, It is if you play like an idiot, and don't play any randoms. 

 

Its purely so people dont stop playing random battles for the duration of the event.

It doesn't sound like it, but maybe you're right and it got lost in translataion

 

 

The daily number of cans of Fuel is limited, as well as the number of battles in which you can engage. Use Fuel wisely to succeed on the battlefield and boost your Division!

 In addition, you can receive additional cans by completing daily battle missions available in the mode.

 

I think there is a mistake in the video. At 5:14 you are saying, that additional fuel cans can be earned by completing certain daily missions in "random battles". The video itself shows "Homefront Missions" and the article is also speaking of the gamemode itself. Could you please clarify this?

 

The mode itself looks definitely interesting. I hope for more steps into the PvE direction - that's also the way to go for historical battles.

"You have the opportunity to speed up your progress and get valuable bond equipment faster by purchasing special bundles"  Nice...so this basically means the grind will be horrible, boring and long for the top rewards unless you pay to get them faster, just like last years halloween, good job I guess...

There is a lot of information missing. What tanks are available? Do I need to have them? Do I need a crew for them? Do I need to put equipment on them? Will I earn credits? Will I consume consumables, etc?

[Three_Rounds_Rapid]

So the reason for the lack of equipment discounts recently becomes clear, incentivise people to play grind this mode for a few pieces of equipment...

Guess they dont want a lot of players to finish it in two days and than complain they want a new season.

[falcon_96]

Soo... We can speed up progress by buying special bundles... And the ultimate reward for the event is bond equipment...  Yep that doesn't sound like loophole to sell purple equipment for cash aaaat all...
Still, let's see how big that bundle speed boost is, because if it is substantial enough to earn you 10k bonds worth of equipment even if you play like a donkey... No bueno!

Other than that the mode seems fun.

Hype around events is all about not playing randoms.

 

Which ruins it for the people who are not interested and not hyped. An event shouldn't break the normal game. I'm hyped for this, but not everyone is

Wow you can win ONE Improved piece of equipment... How generous WG is. Thx rather go to the lake and watch the beauties in their bikinis than wasting my time with that.

[Pistol_Only]

directives... make them go away, please.

 

also, I want to have a mission where we fight back a soviet scum horde playing as a Finnish panssarikomppania! I'd buy that for a dollar/directive.

two bits.

 

Which is great actually. I haven't been able to buy any in anticipation for bond shop and being able to buy a tank. Only have 2 improved rammers, with 61k bonds saved. so adding a Vstab and an extra rammer to that for no bond cost is amazing.

Or at least it would be nice if we could sell them like equipments or consumables ...
