I understand this happening once or twice, but it happened to me dozens and dozens of times over the last 4.5 years. That’s a lot of grind and levels lost. Don’t understand why the timer is 22 hours and it starts every time, even if you just go in to do the required daily login or play one Assault match for a booster. Why can’t I select when the daily task starts or even start a new one because I know I will not be able to finish the old one before time runs out?
Today I had around 23 minutes or so to do the ‘27 cables’ task in a destroyer. Went into a match… aaaand “Encounter” match (ffs). Got the task done (kills from more than 5 km) multiple times, but the match lasted 25 minutes. Some dimwit ran into me, got me out of my position, blocked me from reversing into cover, got me heavily damaged, which eventually led to me dying in the last 4 seconds of the match and costing us a game (thanks dumdum).
Here I have 27 minutes after the previous match. Count changing a lineup and waiting for a match, so around 23 minutes left:
Here is my “reward” after the match, a new daily task and the old one disappeared into snail’s black hole:
4.5 years of battle passes and players still get jipped out of rewards that they need to “collect” after a match. Why is this game so anti-consumer and so unflexible??? Why are we playing same old stale tasks? Why does it take me 5+ days to do the special task that requires 8 wins… because the wins are nowhere to be found??? There is ALWAYS some catch. But comrade, you didn’t press the magic button? There was no magic button to press, just new lame task to do, because the old one went POOF, even though you have completed it in the middle of the match. The accomplishments happen when they happen and NOT after the match when you press a button. Too bad, comrade, that the match lasted 25 minutes and you had 23 minutes to “collect” the rewards AFTER the match. It doesn’t matter that you have accomplished it in the allotted time, the magic button press is THE MOST IMPORTANT. Make it make sense, ffs, gaijin!
I still haven’t forgotten when I lost more than 40 BP levels that I have finished few years ago. Too bad I was few days sick to press the magic buttons. Lost the top reward Russian tank, tons of boosters and WBs (and a vehicle from WB store). Too bad I paid for the BP, grinded for almost 3 months, but then didn’t press the “magic button” as well. Now that tank costs more than $70… gg
Yeah, I know, around the end of last year they have finally changed it, so it gives the uncollected rewards when the BP ends, but how does that help me, if I already lost it and gaijin said “we can do nothing about it to give it back to you”? Why can’t they do automatic award for the accomplished tasks?
