Hey WG,

the holiday ops are a great deal and fun,

Chuck Norris as an commander being the cherry on top.

So just forget the rest of the advent calendar

and give as a new map - that will do.

Please!

I am already on the level X and have nothing else to be looking forward to.

Lowe is very old and everyone who wants one already got it. No idea why this dinosaur is in the Advent Calender which is normally the place for rare or hard to get vehicles...

[Sturmi_0545]

if you want it, buy it in the premium shop with one of the -30% discount coupons WG keeps spamming at people, instead of getting it today with fake -15% due to bloatware.

also, 5x XP missions are usable only for the specific premium tank on offer, it seems. so they are useless if you plan to use those for grinding. unless you're one that converts free XP using gold, then it's a win-win (double win for WG, zero for you).

I disagree here,...-30% coupon means lowe still costs around 30 eur or so,....with gold buy you can get it for 9770 gold (which at the loot box rate 65kGold/100 eur) means it costs me roughly half of that or  15 eur,...thats the catch what bothers me here is that the tank is worse every day because of new OP tank flow in,...LOWE isnt the same beast it was 2 years ago

Lowe? Really? Another wasted day, another wasted opportunity. So pathetic. And this so called offer comes in the day after the release of the large boxes, so people can spend their gold. Oh, wait, Lowe is in the gold shop already forever. Hmmm... What about yesterday? Oh - Guard, which is in the bond shop. Great offer again, indeed! What next? Liberte, Patriot. IS-5, KV4 Kresl, 112, IS-6, T54prot, S1?

Can u WG pls put someone sane to decide which tanks to come in that once in a year calendar? So far in 9 offers only 2 were decent and out of gold/bond shop - TS-5 (which is a stronk one) and M6A21 (which is rare and, thanks to the pref MM - kinda good at the same time).

There r so many good and/or rare tanks, yet not too OP like Defender/EBR/Prog - E75TS, T-44-100, KV5, IS-3A, 703v2, SU-130PM, T42, Renegade, T77... the list goes on and on. And yet someone IQ200 in WG decided we want more WZ and Lowe (good, but in the gold shop) or T-103 (crap) or Guard (both: meh and in the bond shop at the same time).

yep you got it sir,.... thats the primary reason they are not offered ,..they are reserved for eur buy

[O_o_Babbuino]

Lowe is one of best credit earners...so yes, he is kind of special....especially when you have extra 50% credits from Christmas ops (+50% from reserves,+30% from clan,+15% from platoon)

 

Which means - earn 100 000 get 150 000 (245 000) for just a good battle.

They'd sell more boxes if they would offer some nice tanks in the Advent Calendar, people would buy boxes to get gold to buy some nice tanks. There's a lot of people who can't find any interesting Tier 8 premium in this year's boxes but having chance to pick something nice for gold would motivate them to get some more gold to get that Calendar tank and at the same time maybe additionally get tank from boxes, nobody would say no to extra tank from boxes even if he wasn't going after it. Why would people, who want Lowe, take their chances with boxes now to get it if it's available all year round and they can just wait for some -20% or -30% discount coupon, which WG keeps spamming in between of special events?

 

Zmago5000, on 10 December 2020 - 08:02 AM, said:

Usually around Christmas time there was -15% discount on all regularly available Tier 8 Premium Tanks, both in premium shop and in game for gold, last year it was from 21 December at 06:00 CET to 28 December at 06:00 CET (UTC+1), so at that time you could get all those Lowe's, STG's, WZ-120-1G's and whatever else from that they'll offer more, according to leak Strv S1. Yes you wouldn't get 25 x5 missions for it, but really, who would care if there were some really nice and interesting tanks available through Advent Calendar?

[SmegTheNoob]

Yet another tank that is on sale in game all year round.

This advent calender is getting more and more pathetic every day.
