is this a different sale than the summer sale? I heard that this was supposedly the V-day sale

54

Yeah. It should be like this

55

Yes this is the Victory in Europe Day sale.

56

I guess this week its premium discount then next one is vehicle bundles discount ?

57

Correct. Premium account is the most worth it though, moreso than vehicles.

58

Will they discount GEs ?

59

They currently are, as are SL vehicles. All by 30%.

60

Can’t find GE discount :/ Gaijin.Net Store / Golden eagles

61

Oh I thought you meant a discount on vehicles for GE. We don’t know if there will be a discount for GE, but that’s probably next week if so.

62

@war_Tinder Would you recommend the P-51D-10?

I would get the P-51D-20 instead. The P-51D-10 does have more suspended ordinence, but it also is at 4.3 while the P-51D-20 is at 4.0.

64

Okay. I already have the D-20 (it was my premium vehicle bc I love the P-51), I was just told that the D-10 was just a slightly worse D-30 at 4.3 so I didn’t know if you’d recommend it

Big problem with buying premiums is that the F2P people complain about anything they can’t get, and War Thunder oblige them by jacking the BR up to appease. It’s a big kick in the teeth for those who have paid.

They are always hacking at the Wyvern for example, trying to get it’s BR raised. Because they will never own it they imagine it’s an untouchable wonder plane.

So many premiums are good at one BR then really average with even a slight increase.
M18 is the latest premium to get it and my Cobra King got smashed as well. No more spending for me.

I mostly agree with you, but I think this isn’t true of the M18. Moving the M18 to 6.0 doesn’t fundamentally change how it plays. It will have a harder time penetrating things from the front, but it’s a flanker and for the purpose of flanking, its shell is just as good in a 7.0 uptier as it was in a 6.7 uptier.

67

What is going on with the sale only a few of the stated vehicles are on sale rongt now for me

68

The May sale this year only has a few rank 6 packs on sale and the rest are rank 5. Also, the servers are dying. Never buy something in the first 2 hours of a sale. Always wait a few hours because the servers usually die the first 2-or-so hours. Wait a few hours and then buy.

69

I was reading last years news article so that is why I was so confused
