The Great War Returns With New Obtainable Aircraft to Mark November 11th!

Low key, they should just give an extra 1 of each vehicle. Allows me to have a free back up in game and it’s better than a useless 20% SL Booster.

It’s in the post. Classic reward box with 20-50% booster. I never got anything better from it.

They can reroll the sturmtiger for all I care if they will reroll non marketplace vehicles.

Ah i missed it because it was BEFORE the task and reward list. That is SUCH A BS.

Speak for yourself. I completed this event last year and I’m delighted new players now get to enjoy it too, and unlock iconic vehicles.

Player parity is important. I got the chance to get the vehicles for free, so should they.

These vehicles aren’t even on the marketplace anyway. And console players can’t even use the marketplace.

Nah. Down with gacha and gambling.

I am a Sturmtiger owner and I support this idea.

No more rules for thee and not for me.

You know what? Even that would be better than those 20-50sl boosters.

Wish we could keep the Zeppelin as well

No. It’s unfair if people can just get something a year and a half later after the event aired. What’s the point of EVENT vehicles then?

They could but would they? Too much money to be earned from people buying SL with GE in order to have another roll in the SL boxes

Very snobby of you, I for one missed the event last year, and this gives me a chance to both play it since it seems cool, and earn some nice vehicles too.

The cosmetics like the profile icon from last year hasn’t returned, which is more worthy of being a collectible than the vehicles are

You guys should’ve instead made this like an exclusive medal in game. Like how the Iron Crosses are medals. Like be honest, how often do players put medal decals on their tanks? I know I don’t ever do that. An actual medal like the iron cross for my account that shows that I was in this event would be so much cooler!

If they get it, they get it. They don’t have a privilege to just win in sl crates. It is luck based

There seems to be a mistake. Here you say 5 stages will unlock all vehicles, but task requirements say the new vehicles are only unlocked on stage 7.

I do get your point, but I still don’t think that players who DIDN’T participate in the last event should get the vehicles except for the new props.

Well obviously it is luck based. It is gambling… how did you get that out of my response.

huge.

Looking forward to unlocking the aircraft. 5,000 points wasn’t bad last time. Also, hurray for the ability of new players/those who missed the event to get the other rewards.

If they don’t want to spend SL that’s their choice. They shouldn’t be able to get non marketplace vehicles from 1.5 years ago for free though.

To incentivise player retention by using FOMO. The time pressure means players will be online at the same time during the same days to complete the event, and gives players who were on a break an incentive to return. This achieves objective #1 of a free to play MMO: keep lobbies populated.

Then comes objective #2, monetisation (people GEing stages; and where applicable, the marketplace).

Neither objective is hampered by rerunning an event, especially a minor one with non tradable rewards. For example, I could skip this event and not get the two new planes thinking that maybe it’ll come back next year, but what if it doesn’t? The uncertainty gives you an incentive to just play or GE the stages anyway.

Didn’t we just have the Mistel event? We’re gonna get a ground event pretty soon, probably after this.

I’m just trying to say that players who didn’t participate in the Great War event last year should only be able to get the new props.

We are. Only new props. But through the entire event.
