What about the people who will rig these missions? 

Take a screenshot,or better install a mod that will enable replay recording for Steel Hunter(because for some reason WG didn't make it by default?) and report these players,i already contributed to at least 15 people get banned

This mod will do just that: http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/721573-mod-enable-replays-in-steel-hunter-game-mode/

Tempting, but the experience of meeting teamed players in solo mode and customer support not taking it seriously still makes me stay away from Steel Hunter.

 

This.

It's really demotivating when you see 2 teamed guys fall on you after you succeeded to reach a critical size.

 

I'll see what is the answer of the support to a ticket I posted yesterday : if nothing is done I'll seriously consider doing the same.

The 2500 or 5000 XP, is that free exprerience? I was 2x number 1 , platoon and solo and dont see extra free xp?

 

It says for 1 time use, but how to use it..... i mean its not XP for my red dawn i hope

It's Combat Experience. It'll be on the tank, and you'll have to spend gold to convert it to free experience.

Noone knows what happens to the experience on the tanks - but it'll most likely just get moved to the tier I tanks when event ends - or it could vanish.

Unfortunately this XP goes to the event tank (you use at that time) and you have to convert it to Free XP with the use of Gold ... if you want.

I just don't find it worth playing.

I played a few games and now and again for some rewards, but at the end of the battle, if I get that far, I run into a tank I can't pen and that I cannot bounce regardless of the tank I chose, It's so random in that my game outcome depends on who I meet in the game and when.

That makes it merely an opportunity to generate a few more credits than when playing WoT, and there is nothing behind the game other than a few kiddie pages made up by WG fiction writers, which interests me less than a blank script.

I feel it's so different that I am really not interested in it as a WoT game and I don't particularly like it as a stand alone game.

But hey WG, keep trying, I am hopeful that the Chaffee races are still fun and not a kiddie-fest game stuffed with irrelevant bonuses and features. The format never needed those to be a roaring success previously, so please, don't mess it up.

Current iteration is GREAT. Some people will never be pleased.

First thing to do for a game mode like Steel Hunter in the future, would be to prevent people from the same clan being in the same battle. For both solo and platoons. That would prevent some of the teaming that is happening.

(I've seen 6 members from the same clan in solo, and two platoons from the same clan as well.)

OH really?

Ok, my 2 cents: 
1. Start with 10 shells regardless of the nation
2. Either green or orange drop-of must be spawned in the vicinity of 50 meters (Ive had games where I couldnt find anything in the circle of 100 meters which considerably slows down your advancements)
3. Either add fire-extinguishers or remove fire completely. It is probably more random than in normal random games which shouldn't be the case!

4. Buff American vehicle and nerf Soviet vehicle considerably... 
5. Nerf gold ammo for every gun.
6. More missions and more rewards would be very nice after you reach lvl 25 (I've reached and even though its a fun mode, it quickly gets boring since everything is basically the same, especially late game when you see out of 7 last surviving vehicles 6 are Soviets!)

than start baning ppl who team up in solo games in this mode.

take all of their rewards away that they earned so far.

for next offense take their 10% of the bonds and credits, for next 20% for next 40% and so on.

also, its time you start baning ppl who use tundra mod and war pack.

I tried the mode, first day was cool, no teamer, no rigger... I enjoyed.

 

Next day was already awful with a 50% game with cooperation in the solo game.

Could handle to be top 10 mostly but it was too frustrating to be killed early in game by 2 guys playing together or even in the last part of the game 1vs2 to finish 3rd letting the top places to cheaters with no chance to win.

 

So I stopped this mode, simply.

Can be good but must be enhanced to avoid teaming in solo mode (by punishing hard or make team impossible by any mechanism in game).

[Kissa_ei_kuulu_pakkaseen]

The rewards are actually great: easy credits + 6  5x missions for playing 4-5 games. These could had been implemented from the very start, but better late than never...

It's very dependent on which time of the day you are playing. In the morning team-ups are non existent and I can't remember seeing any in the middle of the day either. Then we get closer to the evening and it starts to show and becomes more common as the clock is ticking. I usually do my Steel games early so it's really chill, but I once had a Sunday session and oh boy, not a single game without it. I quite like the game mode but I would probably strongly dislike it if all my games were played in the later part of the day.

There is something i dont understand. In website it is announced that we get missions for x5 exp, and in-game missions tab it is written that we get single-use 5k exp on those steel hunder mode tanks. Soooo, its a scam? Where is a mistake?
