8.7-9.0, nice Sh*p event by the way
In the “stuff you can expect” post they stated we aren’t getting a naval event until like August, so yipppeeeeeee
Tbf, at least this isn’t a C&P like the Partisan
Ok
now if this is to be around 8.7/9.0 can we finally get some BR decompression around this part of the game?
its BS to think that the Vampire is the same BR as the MiG-15Bis ISh, and the MiG-17PF the same BR as the Venom/Mystere IV
Cromulent :)
Wait an interesting reward that isn’t just C&P with a flag stuck to the turret or just a different decal slapped on it? Hell must have frozen over for this to have happened
The rank V Israeli Meteor was 30K but this rank V is 35?
That does indeed seem a bit unfair. It should be 30K as well.
Even gaijin itself knows israel meteor is a more boring one, so they make it 30k.
I had my hopes up because of the Kurt Tank spoiler, but nah, ill pass on this, not interested in the slightest.
From article:
The conditions for obtaining the Meteor FR Mk.9 during this event have been adjusted to balance the difficulty of obtaining and the value of the reward.
So the Marut is more valuable than the Meteor? That doesn’t seem right.
A rather boring aircraft, thankfully one I can skip the grind for
There are 3 variants of the jet
Mk1 which has 2 bristol non afterburning engines, mach 0.93 top speed at the deck, kind of mediocre engines
Mk1r with afterburning bristol engine, probably goes mach 1 at deck, was a armed prototype
Mk1bx with e300 engines, even better. Top speed mach 1.1 at unknown altitude, but this is prob also at sea level, also was a armed prototype
Do we know whuch variant is this?
Last events have been so skipable, hope we get something more modern and interesting in the future…
???
It’s not a ship again?
Next Event Vehicles
2025 marks the 80th anniversary of Victory Day! For this we’ll have our traditional celebrations and an event with a Soviet tank as the main reward, which has already been announced. Afterwards, those interested in aircraft will be able to appreciate one of Kurt Tank’s designs in the aircraft event. And in early June, we’ll be having an event dedicated to D-Day with an American tank as the main reward. When this event finishes, there will then be about a 1 month gap without an event — after that, naval fans will be able to enjoy a naval vehicle in a naval event.
So we’ll have two full cycles of events without ships, just to get “he-hee you’ll get your one ship after this cycle”? That’s nice and all, clearing the debt from october-november of previous year, while accumulating even more debt. In that case ship will better be something actually good and very, very unique.
Because the Meteor FR Mk 9 is clear copy and paste, this one no.
Even better… given the balance on the 4 so far, it’ll probably be a coastal :)
