It’s not fun, it’s a grind. The nations are so unbalanced, I need 3-4 matches to get the German reward but only 2-3 to get the Triple Ententete one.
The Garfird spam is annoying. I played it, was disgusted by how OP it is, and started only playing other tanks.
And of course everyone’s playing the German Empire because it takes so much more time to complete.
Why not make a fun April Fools event like previous years?
Heck, if you just did the submarines or infantry events again that would be much better.
The german empire is played most because it is OP, because most players do not even realise that they can change teams (lioterally needed to explain to people how to do it because Gaijins event interface is literally unuseable trash)
And the german Empire side is far easier to complete usually taking 2 missions, sometimes only 1 because You can kill any Entente vehicle in 1 or 2 shots using the Garford while the Garford needs to hit actual weakpoints on the A7V
As much as I have my gripes about the vehicles, this event is by far the best in recint events. You can’t tell me the Mad Max event is better than this one. + It’s only 5k points (10k in total for both) thats way better than 45k or the bull crafting.
i really enjoyed mad max, i just liked the world and the storm was very cool. But this ww1 update is just new vehicles, i was hoping there was something cooler with the infantry
The germans get a Zepelin with more bombs and bigger bombs, the Fokker has an actual flight model while the DS is impossible to fly and has worse weapons.
The St. Char can be oneshot killed by the Garford at any angle, the Mk IV at almost every angle the A7V needs to be hit on the drivers hatch or it is immune to all HE damage.
I get the feeling you did not even play the mode.
the A7V was nerfed 3 times reducing its RoF from 3s reload to 8s reload.
Its crew HP was also nerfed, its movbility was nerfed and more…
Since topic is related, figured to post this here:
I think the mode was alright.
We earned tiny bit of credits, so it wasn’t a waste of time.
I had… somewhat opposite experience.
I could get into battles with 3-ple entente faster, lost more often, but had more stuff to do as allies are usually taken out.
German Empire took a while to get in, and I had at least 1 roflstomp situation, where I just couldn’t do anything to get points. The allies were too good.
I think Zeppelin is also use-able, maybe even more than the entente counterpart, but the issue is they spawn at too low altitude…
But then again, if they’d spawn at too high, almost no one would be able to reach them.
In either case, I found Zeppelin much more maneuverable than any other plane, no excess wobbling when you turn a bit to aim your bombsight.
But, yes, the defense gunner mode is broken on the Zeppelin.
