Hello,

As I can see WoT is giving away free 8th tier premium tanks - but it s okey they've started this thing - T34 is becoming premium.

As I don t like to play with american tanks, and in the name of corecteness, not speking of those who buyed 8th tier premium VIII tier tanks with real money I would like to have IX tier tanks (E75, IS 4 etc) becoming premium in the russian tier, german and french tier also.

Proposed changes to tech trees are posted well in advance, you have months to grind to any tanks that will be replaced giving you a free tank if you can be bothered to keep an eye on the forums to see whats happening.

T34 as a free premium is deserved by anyone who has suffered playing the US heavy tank line in my opinion.

it's ok, that T34 becomes premium, because NOONE  can complain about that except for those too lazy to get the T34 in time
srsly once I learned about it I immediatly started grinding and got ahold of the T34 in november(!)

Like how you twist the wording around to suit your needs.
Let me put it in another way;

Is it fair for people that started grinding us heavy line as soon as they've heard t34 was going premium (9 months ago) to receive it as promised?
Should people that didn't grind to t34 but played whatever line they liked, get their respective tank as premium, even if it wasn't announced?

You are not alone in this world. Reading news usually is a good thing so don't bitch if you don't and found out only now that t34 will be premium.

Nobody cared about the T34 in the past except for some masochists, that wanted to torture themselves... and now that it gets free (which is only a compensation for suffering in my oppinion), some players start complaining?
Its still the same "bad tank" as before... you did not want it before, why do you want it now?

So, you dont play US tanks, therefore you have no clue how it is to play them stock. The T34/T30 needed changes (buffs) long, long time ago (though elited i dont find it that bad currently, but barely better than IS-4, E-75...). Especially due to the fact it took so long, i think the T34 prem is the LEAST reward for those who made it through that tree. In addition, the T34 will be tier 8, not tier 9, and it will be nerfed (HP nerfed from 1900 to 1550 and less ROF - from 6.55 to ~ 5 shells per minute).
And, as already said above, it was announced long time ago so theres no unfairness for those who wont get the new prem tank. Also you can still buy it...

They certainly are not "free" as the grind to the T34 is a painful one and it's owners should get it as a premium vehicle, grind the T32 for yourself and see what people mean.

EDIT 1: negative rep for that? really??

YES

have few premium tanks, and have t34, and looking forward to it.
I dont regret spending on premium or tanks, some of them are good for credits other great fun, as L2 light :) and even tho t34 will be premium tank for which i can only say "Thanks to WG" , i wont stop buying new premium tanks that come out that ofcourse is if i like them.

T34 becoming premium was announced at least half year back, and every single player here had chance to grind his way to get it.
And we should be thankfully  for WG giving chance to everyone to get some tank that will make this game more pleasurable and enjoyable for everyone not only paying customers. And as paying customer i can only see this as really positive move not aimed against me or other players who pay, but it will help greatly to players that ether dont want to spend money , cant afford or simple cant find way buy gold.

Short, with this move i can see that WG cares about players, tho from your tread it seams you dont give f.. about others...
WG +

I disagree with part of your statement.
Grinding till t34 was peace of cake, but it was pain in a.s getting last gun, tho with last gun that tank is great :)

Find one good player who suffered with t29 and t32..

by your thinking, german or USSR tanks are easy to play with but US are not??

That said i m not demanding for other nations to get free premium tank, i m just saying US tanks are not worst than others, well to some are to some are not, but they are not bad as you make them sound.

Sure why not, i really dont see any problem with it becoming a premium, neither is it unfair.

Object252 (IS-6) is also going premium, anyone who has one in their garage when it happens will get one for free. :P

Seriously, I had the opportunity but decided a free tank worth £40 was not worth the pain and suffering of the US heavy tree.  I know people who actually spent more than the 12000 gold it is priced at on the test server on getting is as well.

Besides, I bought a Lowe when they were 7500. I win.  B)

You are talking about tier 9 premium tanks. Why? T34 as a premium tank will get a nerf and go down to tier 8.
