The event timing isn't that bad

Ok and you dont see a problem with a situation where the only way to access event vehicles as a fully functioning adult is either paying for them or forgoing all non essential duties/responsibilities during the holidays?

Also: getting up at 6am just to play war thunder before work is questionable behavior

People don’t like having their time management being criticized.

My workaholic father having over 30 hours of free time a week will not be everyone’s situation.
Me having even more free time is not everyone’s situation.

Some people are stuck with a plate full of tasks that they don’t know how to fix, and fixing them in and of itself is difficult.

Not everyone has some grace where they can play a bit of WT before they leave, and a little bit before they go to sleep.

I have an internship where I wake up at around 4am for breakfast, then leave at around 6am. The job starts me at around 8am, then I go home at around 6pm with transportation.
I leave early, because I travel with my sibling so I don’t have to brace the morning traffic and to save on transportation costs, even If I have to wait an hour or so before the office gets populated.

Unless I destroy my sleep schedule, I go to sleep at around 9ish-10ish.

You don’t get to lecture people on time management. And again, you can’t use “Lmao its an event just buy it if you cant grind it.” if you try to.
Not many people have the financial liberties to spend it on a game.

This event timing is meh for me. A least I get to grind it on my holiday break. Can’t grind for the coupon to sell it away though, but that’s okay enough for me.

Gaijin’s predatory with their events and pretty much caters always to those who can maximize their grind or those who have alot of time. I wish they lowered the point requirements to 30k or 25k, but I can’t rely on the devil for salvation can I?

Or just go back to the old style - task based stars.

Less of a hassle, less time needed to complete them. It’s faster to get 6 kills in one game, 40 kills overall (or was it 60 at some point?) and a few assists or caps than grinding score for who knows how long :)

No. Never again.
Those were far worse, and incentivized toxic behavior.

you should do ARB for air stars.

You can get like 20K score (after multipliers) per hour. Don’t bother with sim if you are not experienced. Sim regulars will eat you alive.

War thunder has to become your social life, family, friends etc

As if there’s not a single example of that behavior during these events and even without them :)

Want an example? Low tier matches where 20mm Pumas or that swedish thing pops back up from the dead thanks to sealclubbers absolutely murdering newbies with that. But sure, task based stars are worse (:

It’s easier to just whale your way through…

I just wish that the discounts were better.
Right now they come at steps at which you can easily just play one more game and get the star for free anyway.

I’d prefer if each 1% of the requirements that has been done reduced the GE prize by 1%.

You get 20k of 40k required points? Great! Pay 500GE for the reat of the stage instead of 1000.

Ok now do it 7 more time also ain’t nobody waking up at 6 am to play war thunder, not a great way to start the day.

Gaijin is a company that seeks to make as much money as possible… it is ONLY beneficial to them when they make an event in a way that forces people to spend GE.

I really don’t know what you expect from Gaijin… they are running a business, not a charity

To be honest I think the primary motivation for the event is player count rather than buying stars. A minority of players will buy the stars.

This is good idea ngl.

Would be the case if the main price wouldn’t be the long awaited Mig25

Air ab is way faster or at least I found it to work for me.

They could keeps the chunks of score per 2 days but allow us to have extra score we get to roll over to the next star.

The naval star is fine. Air is okay, But the ground one takes the longest by far. Ground multipliers could be increased a bit.

For me I think air is longest if you play Air RB.

I’m sorry, but this is considered no-lifing and the advice is unsuitable for most adults with even a semblance of life outside work and War Thunder.

tbh I pre-planned my paycheck for the event plus no one to get gifts for

That is why i switched to air sim.

I do ground and naval in rb.
