Hello,

 

What is the point of putting premium tanks, that are available all year round In the advent calendar, I want to spend lots and lots of money on premium tanks like strv 81 which I wait for many years, type 59 please where are you.

 

but anyone who wants the tank on offer today already has it, as its been available every day this year for both gold and money 

 

so what is the actual reason for wasting a day saxsan Is unhappy, saxsan wants strv 81

STRV will come soon enough, be patient. Wouldn't be surprised if it came tomorrow, just to appease you.

 

But aren't there only a couple of tech tree prems on that leaked list of advent tanks? STRV S1, WZ TD, M41D and Lowe? Point still stands.

Because WG are lazy turds that recycle the same crud over and over in an attempt to catch you off guard into thinking that the thing in front of you is a good deal.

 

I don't think I've ever seen one in anything they have ever done.

because they are discounted by 15%. It's a better deal simply put.

Are all advent calendar tanks discounted 15% or only those that are always available?

I'm not sure. Maybe tomorrow will be a non tech tree deal so we could see.

We're 4 days in... Not gonna have everything you want each day. Others have been happy with the selection so far, as that's what they waited for. As I can't say all of them so far have been sold every day. 

 

And yes today's offer is in the tech tree. But still cheaper than it usually is. I know of 2 that have waited for that to be on sale, vs the full price. Just like you are waiting for the Strv 81. And with 19 days left, I'm sure you will get what you want by then. Relax. 

 

As I suspect the deal this year going by leaks seems to focus on tier 8's only vs mid to low tier rareties like we have had each year, inc the T28-F30. But instead, we get high tiers only, thus it's more of a mixed bag.

I'm more concerned about this recent trend of referring to yourself in the third person. I hope everything's ok, sax. :unsure:

Do not keep hopes up for Type 59, those are for special occasions and will pop once every year - 1,5 year

 

I wish I could borrow you mine for a couple of rounds, almost feel sorry to see you waiting so long :(
