Tanks Are Now Available for Bonds!
#302 Posted 04 November 2019 - 02:21 PM
I think its a good idea to have an alternative way to gain tanks that are no longer available or only in certain game modes etc. I think everyone liked the Black Market offers - although it was a bit silly in its limited opening timetables. The Bond shop is arguably the way to offer a "black market" service for a longer period, rotating in new tanks as needed to give us ways to spend the bonds.
Problem is that the ones everyone wants (Donqueror & 907) are basically OP in the hands of a half decent player, but in the hands of a unicorn - insta-win. They give a big advantage to the team who has them, no arguments.
These CW tanks CAN be nerfed - after all no money changed hands - and made more in line with the Tech tree versions. (They did it with the T22 med after all, so there is precedent.)

Right now there's no plan for future tanks, but to measure the feedback on these and to see if this works/is popular
For sure it will be not in the immediate future and there will be a chance to earn bonds through the various modes and through playing well in random battles. These tanks so far are not planned to go away, so don't feel rushed into buying them. But for those with M60 code spam, they will be buying that first!
What I would like to see featured in the future and would rekindle my interest in this game is a "WoT Classics" line of tanks for bonds. What do I mean by that? I mean a range of tanks no longer available or that have been changed heavily from how they used to be, such as the pre-nerfed ELC-bis, the derp gun VK 28.01, the A-L 59-16 and other tanks that were once unique or better to play etc. Of course, their tier placing would have to be looked at and maybe some might need +1 tier or not etc.
Also, consideration to a crew for bonds option where we can use bonds to purchase BIA crew members or even BIA crew members feature +2 skills/perks 100% trained... this sort of thing it would be nice. Very expensive of course, rightfully so, but to have the option there would be great and why not.

There is many premium tanks that u could put in bond shop but u should carefully decide which tanks you could put and which one you don´t. Personally I would never put Obj. 907 and T95/FV4201 Chieftain to be available to any player for bonds. First reason is this tanks are over powered clan wars tanks and second is that will ruin random forever.
What you could put in bond shop depends on so many parameters but for now some tanks should be available in bond shop even for helping us pass some missions for Obj. 260 and Obj. 279 e.
I personally would love to see VK 72.01 (K), AMX 50 Foch (155), FV215b (183), T-22 medium, IS-5 (Object 730) and KV-4 Kreslavskiy.
Some of the tanks were removed from the game and made to be premium tanks. Many of us didn´t get the chance to even research them (talking about players who started to play this game two years ago). Putting this tanks in the game I mentioned before would be refreshing for new players who want to spend bonds on something interesting and u will have them at least 1 or 2 years playing World of tanks think about that.

@WG - I’m glad to see the shop finally open, thank you. However, not that you’ve got that far, could you consider allowing us to sell the bond-only personal skills and improved equipment. Especially in the case of the skills, there are many in my garage that I never use nor want, so it would be nice to be able to get rid of them (there are others I do use, such as 6th sense for new commanders, but it’s all a matter of taste). I think what I am saying is, now that you have the currency up and running, why not allow it to be fully utilised as a currency, where people can chose what to sacrifice from their stock in order to get something else.

It is also an opportunity to let people spend the bonds they might have earned through CW but not able to buy the tanks that were on offer. This also provides an opportunity to purchase premium tanks for bonds for those dedicated players who play at higher tiers and perhaps have a lot of bonds but nothing to spend them on
The 2 reward tanks were considered carefully to gather further feedback from
In the long term just playing well and playing tier 10 you will earn those bonds passively or keep on the look-out for game mode rewards like those from Frontline
So, you laugh to all the players who participate in cw campaign and bust their asses to get or no reward tanks ?! How many campaign was it? How many times some guy played and almost get it?
And you decided the price 15k bonds. Why dont you ask the community, or make a poll?
1. VK 72.01 K (not anymore reward)
2. T95E6 (not anymore reward)
3. obj 907
4. M60
5. 121b
6. T95/FV4201
And you put the M60 and 121b for what reason? They have seen less in the random game?
Than, what about tier 8 prem tanks:
1. Guard
2. T26E5 P
3. AMX M4 49 L
4. Pz. 58 Mutz
LOL Why not progetto 46, LT- 432, Skorpion G, Lorr. 40t, Skoda T 27 ?!?

As eekeeboo mentioned already in this thread ... No New Tanks In Short Time ...
... I believe that we will see the next tank pack (for bonds), not shorter than March-April of 2020 ...
... so, if you don't like these tanks, just keep your Bonds for the next pack of tanks ...

I need to think really carefully before I part with any bonds they are like gold to me.
Not in game gold anyone can get that no bonds are a rare resource not easily or quickly replaceable.
Now I have 15,000 and can buy anything that.s on offer I really don't want to.waste it.
Directives can now be bought for credits I have maybe 250 of each and have only ever used a few to give me sixth sense on poor crewed tanks.
Improved equipment way way way too expensive for what they give you 5000 bonds for improved vents but only 8,000 for a tier 8 premium tank.
Bond tanks "that makes them seem really cool btw" nothing special here really perhaps if the 121B and M60 were premium tanks with the low running cost and credit bonuses, well then yes I would go for them in a heartbeat.
Simply as a reward tank every bit as expensive to run as a standard tank nope that would be crazy.
Standard premiums I can buy for cash again complete waste of bonds.
Looks like there is absolutely nothing worth spending them on.
