[POLL] The current state of events

could be cool if they create a new category

TechTree - No Bonus Rewards
Event/Squadron - Half the Premium Rewards (would be like +50%)
Premium - Normal Bonus Rewards(+100% if im not mistaken)

This exactly. A lot of these battlepass-y things in other games are moving to longer periods. Pages of History is 3d and that’s pretty reasonable. 50k every 3d would be better this way than 35k every 2.

I also think events should always have one step you can skip and still get the vehicle (maybe not the camo or whatever). Most do but not all of them.

Would it really be an event if we could grind out the whole stage in 5 games (1 game for some sim players) they could be easier but most events aren’t worth grinding. F16XL
was a very great event worth the grind . I personally don’t think events should last longer than they are because spending more than 2-4 weeks grinding an event sounds like a job requirement. I think events should have 2 vehicles being able to get 16 stages for both 8 for each after the first 8 you can pick your vehicle you want first after/if you finish the next 8 you get the vehicle you didn’t pick the first time. I also think we should have more modern era and cold war vehicles but with my idea of the 2 vehicles and 16 stages 8 for each , 1 cold war/modern , and 1 ww1/ww2. I also think we should have way more NASA and space events like YF-12A and F15 active. We should also have Anti air events like the T249 Vigilante.

camo + random modifications or just the random modifications

Hope this become more and more comum 9 stages

Honestly I kinda miss the old events where you had to craft parts etc.

Sure it was more RNG and harder to do but it at least felt rewarding to get the vehicles

I think it would be fine if squadron vehicles just get the ability to grind any lower rank vehicle with 100% efficiency. Premium bonuses arent really needed for them.

they can be purchased with GE, why not allow them research other tiers?

YF12A Next event Gajin take notes its only fair because Russia has mig25 at like 11.0…
it may not be good but would really be fun and able to outrun 4,000 missiles (SR-71 stats not yf12A)
12.0 sounds reasonable

  • YES!
  • NOPE!

I think the mission point system is fine and the 45k points required aren’t as bad as people make it out to be, my only suggestion would be to increase the time between tasks, I feel like 2 days is barely enough for most people with responsibilities, they should be increased to 3 days at max.

The GE discounts could also be improved a lot further, the discount to completion ratio is terrible and should definitely be improved specially when going over 50%.

Another day, another doohickey ducted on a thingmabob. Patria AMV (Bakhcha) is a nice event vehicle, I can’t and won’t say that is a good event vehicle à la Object 292—I’m using Object 292 as a measure of:

  • Is the vehicle appealing?
  • Is the vehicle effective?
  • Is the vehicle unique?

Object 292 is appealing, has a 152-mm cannon on a durable platform and the current highest penetrating APDS-FS ammunition in-game; Object 292 is effective, ignoring the caviats like lack of thermal imaging, coaxial machine gun and not up to standard armor, is effective as a shoot and scoop vehicle; Object 292 is unique because it’s the first of a handful of prototypes made during the late-Cold War to bring main battle tank to a new standard of unimaginable powerful cannons.

Why do I use Object 292 as measure because of its value in the Marketplace, same can be told for the F-14A IRIAF that hands over to the player similar performance in form of an airplane. Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) is real but that’s part of the event, the developers seems to be trying to fix or balance between FOMO content and good content, so what’s the point of exclusivity? What’s the point of event vehicles. These current event vehicles are not interesting as they used to be. The first tank, the first airplane and the first vessel in the current cycle were the only truly interesting set of vehicles, after that is just pointless, uninteresting, inferior vehicles compared to research tree ones, even, Premium vehicles became more superior than event vehicles.

If I’m going to put all other things I could do aside in favour of an event vehicle that requires time management, what’s the damn point of going after this “exclusive” vehicle that is inferior if not the same as any other comparable tech tree vehicle. I was reading through the AMV (BMP-3)'s Desert Predator event and is baffling the position of Gaijin representative and other fellow community members. As @Джахед mentioned, they hyped us for a underwhelming vehicle that doesn’t fulfill none of the previous mentioned measures of a good event vehicle (to note, it’s subjective, is my opinion, others will have different measures of good or bad event vehicle, no problem).

I’m careless that FOMO is something, I’ve missed the T-72B3A (Arena-E) event on purpose only to find out that it could’ve been a nice addition to my line-up of vehicles months after the event, so what? I’m not complaining about FOMO. I actually want unique, effective and exclusivity on these event vehicles regardless if I can’t get the vehicle for whatever reason. Having another wheeled platform with equally mediocre armament is not really saying: “This is a good event vehicle”. It’s not the first time I’ve shared my discontent with the content, and it certainly won’t be the last as I’ve mentioned in other moments:

I’ve mentioned that the Marketplace can tell another half of the story if the vehicle fulfill the three requirements I’ve proposed previously, and as @Smin1080p_WT mentioned, the Marketplace don’t tell the whole story because we don’t have access to individual vehicle data to compare with the general data to determine if the vehicle is desireable.

But with the Marketplace and general player data from sources like Statshark that provide more or less accurate data about the vehicle like kill-death ratio, winrate and battles, we have a good idea of how good it is. In this example we can use the Object 292, the first vehicle on this new cycle and the Scimitar Mk.2 the latest vehicle in this new cycle:

In the same period, August 2026, realistic battles, tanks

So yes, they’re correct to state that the Marketplace value don’t tell the whole story but it’s screaming how good something actually is. If the Marketplace value didn’t meant that much, so why is Object 279 so high in value? Definitely not because it’s another wheeled platform with an autocannon ducted on it. If the value is so low as GJN 9.90 its directly saying this vehicle is not worth the time or the value could be as low as free, which is not allowed on the Marketplace but being one of the lowest valued vehicles it’s very telling. I’m not expecting Patria AMV (Bakhcha) to be higher then GJN 30.00 in the long term, which means I’m not expecting Patria AMV (Bakhcha) to be good or fulfill none of the previously mentioned three points.

I’m excited for the next suprise they are planning for the next ground vehicle, and I’m excited to be disappointed with another doohickey ducted on a thingmabob.

Nah not as an event vehicle it would be better as a squadron vehicle

I think it would be more correct to compare the number of battles in the first month after the marathon’s release. But since the 292 came out in February 2024 and Statshark only appeared at the beginning of 2025, that won’t be possible. However, even so, a year after being in the game, the 292 has twice as many battles as the SCIMITAR.

More time to grind, lower points threshold. The average player has to work way too hard for something that sometimes isn’t even that viable.

One is an MBT from one of the most popular in game nations vs a light tank from a lesser popular nation. So this is also not an accurate or meaningful comparison that tells the full story or has the full data.

Yeah. That wasn’t a fair comparison they made honestly.

However some of the event vehicles are a long grind for something that is not always that viable.

Therefore, we can look at the statistics of the FV4030/3 tank, which I have also kindly provided.

Which shows the very same thing I am speaking about. One of the most popular nations will always have more games played vs one of the lesser popular ones has a drastically lower play rate.

These statistics are also not official nor the full accurate picture either.

But both the Scimitar and the FV4030/3 are in the same tech tree. The difference is that in one case, you made an event for a tank that was at least somewhat interesting, while in the other, you released a light tank that nobody really wanted — the Scimitar.

Your company needs to take a more responsible approach to choosing marathon rewards. Right now, it feels like you’re not even trying to appeal to the majority of players and are simply churning out unwanted vehicles that people want to forget about the moment they are announced.😤

This is categorically false. Plenty of people wanted it, asked for it and it was received well. I’m afraid this is showing your personal bias once again in attempting to speak on behalf of everyone rather than just express your personal opinion.
