I have the IS-7
sorry but you missed out lol
The stock market also isn’t controlled by a singular company that profits off of every transaction made. You don’t use currency to “buy in” to the stock market, you just use currency. Similar systems? Yes. Exactly the same in concept and excecution? No.
I think that is a shady business practice in this case. It is encouraging people to buy Gaijin coin to buy these cheaper rare vehicles by artificially inflating the amounts. More people will by something if the price is lower. You adding to the market to drive the price down so you will profit from more people buying Gaijin coin is market manipulation and isn’t a good look. I want to add that it is their marketplace and their game and they can do what they wish at any time. My opinion means nothing to them, and it shouldn’t to be honest.
I don’t feel bad for your vitriol, I own most of the vehicles, even the E-100 and Is-7. I used to be a player on the WT Chinese server, but it eventually shut down, so I lost the account I used to have. But I’ve played with a lot of interesting vehicles, and I’m just representing a subset of players who are eager to get them, but don’t have the opportunity.
There were a bit more cause they added a exclusive E-100 event for PS4 players . There was a delay with Dog Tags on PS Store that made PS4 players miss some of those initial E-100 events that were only available to Dog Tag owners.
I don’t own E-100 but I regret not having participated at the time(I was starting playing tanks then) since basically every PS4 player that participated got one.

Thanks for the info, I didn’t know that. I was there back then, even bought the Dog Tags but didn’t participate for I knew there was no way for me to be amongst the best tankers… :)

Found it:
As you can see it was held a bit later compared to the first tournaments, and gave 200 E-100s to PS4 players.

Agreed. There is no reason to have ultra rare items in video games. At best, it’s an arbitrary limit on what experiences players can have in the game so that a few players can feel special that they played the game at a certain time.

Why exactly would that be an issue? Its a speculative market that players make. You could technically say the same thing about any market in existance that has rare items. Its just absurd for game develoeprs to cather to that (and should be illegal to begin with).
E-100 can stay as a tournament vehicle. I would like to see gaijin run these new events with a couple old vehicles. I think it would give the older players a nice break from event grinding and allow for newer players to get some interesting vehicles.
I do not understand the argument of “i grinded the event for profit and price will go down”. I guess i can understand being upset that someone didnt buy your vehicle for $2k but even then, you cant cash that out.

That‘s true！！！
That is why I say it is an issue. Gaijin controls the supply, them adjusting the supply, to me, seems really shady. It helps people who don’t have the vehicles and want them, but hurts the players that earned the initially and wants to sell them. Gaijin profits regardless because you must buy in to the market and can’t cash out into real cash (that I know of). So adding more stock of IS-7s right now would ensure 1000s of dollars in sales because there are ONLY buy orders for them, no sale orders. It would be great for them to add even 10 IS-7s that could be sold because that would equal out to 10k dollars in their pocket. Untradeable coupons for them wouldn’t be as bad, but it would still effect those players holding out by decreasing demand, but not effecting supply. The whole situation has alot of gray areas.
Iam pretty sure that they just sell some here and there to take in the money.
Good. Let’s goooooooo…
Seriously screw those people, why should I or anyone else care how much fake money they lose?
It is about vechicles being rare not how much they cost
You should make a poll. I’d like the chance to get them.
When it’s still available it has a price tag of $2000 lol
Another thing being, having something so exclusive, nothing feels better than driving the E-100 and teammates went like horeshet a diet Maus never seen that before, that feel so good bro. But then, gaijin can play dirty by selling it on marketplace when it ran out of stock, there is so many ways they can do it and not get caught doing it.
That is a different argument but one that I can better understand. I still think the argument of “i dont want others to get it because i want to feel special” is not a good reason against re-releasing event vehicles.
E-100 was a special tournament only thing so I am okay with it staying as a tournament prize. I would like to see event vehicles be re-released in future events. Would give those who already have it a nice break. Maybe add some special decal for those who got the vehicle the first time.
I don’t agree with bringing rare event vehicles back in any big way.
