On a technical level, this event is incredibly bad. I’ve played a total of 10 games on the Entente side, of which I got booted (as in, kicked out) of two of them, in a third one the game crashed and the match itself got deleted (never showed up in my match history), while for literally all the rest there were incredibly intrusive connection issues.
Tanks flying, sliding back and forth, and shells literally despawn beyond 350 meters - it’s unplayable.
As for the actual balancing, I used the Garford for all my games except the last one. I know these are WW1 vehicles, I know “war is hell”, I know that getting bogged was just “part of the experience”, but the traction on the Garford SPECIFICALLY is so bad it’s not even funny. On some portions of the map around the C cap it can’t even go in a straight line, it literally starts sliding left and right.
The concept is cool, the actual technical implementation is hot garbage though.
it’s fine as long as you play tanks (that are way faster than they should lol).The main problem is gaijin servers as if they didn’t know the event like these would overload them with players.
This is such a fun event! Spraying down infantry and advancing through the trenches is awesome, and the grind isn’t bad at all. I wish this would stay as a monthly event or something. The servers could use some help though, ping is really bad and HE is useless against infantry.
The event need to be fixed against cheaters and how is possible that laser range finders exist. Getting sniped around 600m accurate by weapons that suppose not accurate enough. The Mad Max event was better then WW1 event with cheaters unloading they aimbot skills.
Ignore the language in my game’s screenshot, but I’ve been trying for 10 minutes to get into my third match in hours…
Alright, snail, I find a match, and you kick me out because you’re incapable of accommodating enough players to prevent server connection errors and instability issues.
And on top of that, you give us “6 DAYS OF EVENT” under these TERRIBLE conditions that MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE for players to complete the event SATISFACTORILY?
Seriously, Gaijin, I love you, but some days you really ask for it.
Please, extend the event duration—this is not enough time for players who are being affected by these instabilities and server-side errors, which are not the players’ fault.
This is a good idea, i would even go as far as saying that an on-screen text similar to the “Critical hit” would be even better.
like having a text that says:
“Infantry downed - x1”
“Infantry downed - x2”
“Infantry downed - x3”
and so on. Same as the “Critical hit” or “Hit” functions currently does.
