i found them on the ground far from anyone when i was exploring berlin map. dont believe anyone came there nor was downed there. havent found anything like that anywhere else.

That is a valid fear, and Iā€™m with you in hoping it wonā€™t

This is how it starts, first weird looking skins on tanks, followed by cringy skins to soldiers and when you realize, you have a pink gum bazooka shooting cats.

This is the game that the gay modern audiences want, you are doing the correct thingā€¦ Like many other companies have done before and succeded, donā€™t forget the great game BFVā€¦

even BFV had to shit can the extreme crap they initially presented. What we got in the end was alot better than what they first presented.

@James_Grove The Engineer in the event squad except the German one are unable to build AA, AT gun or MG nest. Which every other event squad that has Engineer in them are able to build making them worth it to use.

Can the Devs please add the ability to them like ever other event squad so they donā€™t feel like generic tech tree squad.

Fair concern.

But filter still sounds better than no filter.

Currently there is no way to escape giant reindeers, skis and teddybears on tanks completely ruining the atmosphere.

Donā€™t forget they just added an obnoxious and completely era-inappropriate ā€œdemonā€ decal which will be used by 100% of edgy teenagers.

Can anyone explain how I progress, because in that zombie mode, I only get 2 BP done and can never complete the third (win!), so how on earth some people have all four squads already I have no clue, if you get tokens and donā€™t complete match you lose em right? I tried hard mode and can never match with anyone? I even spent gold on the event, have medic and engineer, but have progressed one level since, not even got fg yetā€¦ I guess at this rate 2 BP levels every day for a month

Is 2 BP levels enough to get squads, I donā€™t think so, at this rate this is my last gold investment in anything like this, if not.

I wanna add 1 more criticism: the event is way too grindy and time intensive (1h/day playtime expectation to unlock the bp tasks) even with the elite BP especially considering the tight timeline on the BP.

It feels like pay to grind. Thatā€™s not how itā€™s supposed to work.

Also, relative to time invested the silver gain is a joke.

I want Japan and Russian squad, spent 900 gold already, get rubbish squad mates, this event is actually quite frustrating as I do BP and then get 2 tasks (time related) then log, so on average only two BP tasks per day at most then log off, watching the progress bar go up a thirdā€¦ yes agree about grindy, god knows how you are supposed to progress without new BP!?!

I wish that one of the new squads wasnā€™t locked behind a paywall. I already bought the ā€œpremiumā€ version of the current battle pass, do you really need more of my money, just to let me earn more rewards?

That is quite impossible tbh token go directly into inventory unless you go down they donā€™t drop

I didnā€™t say they add it I said that they said they will consider which means they havenā€™t but are considering

well would need to check on replay what exactly happened.

My medic came with 20. And 28 health, 6 handling

Thing is they give it back to you in form of gold. You could buy next pass with out spending a cent. This is a very reasonable method getting players to spend the gold they earn from battlepass to have to buy a new one with cash next time. They very well might remove gold from regular pass if people keep bitchin about having to buy another pass. From a sales and psychological standpoint it would be better to remove gold and then not charge for second pass because itā€™ll make most ā€œfeel betterā€. But reality is, itā€™s the same. Just have to be smart enough to realize it

Any way to prevent speedrun griefer rushing to the apc results in no one except him can deliver tokens on time and got way less halloween points than we supposed to get with the half-hour time spent go to waste?

Iā€™ve encountered more than 3 times already, it usually a top skill players I think who thought their skill are superior than others or something, who can run all the way to the apc, not knowing he left hordes of enemies behind and no one can clear his mess to catch up with him on time till time runs out and died halfway through, canā€™t hop on the apc because enemies are all over the place, or died at the side of it.

Just what I replied to. This is why I think why some of us kept grumbling. Why just a ā€œweā€™ll considerā€, not a ā€œweā€™ll add it, sorry for not considering it beforeā€? Why introduce an otherwise possibly fun event skin to the ww2 part of the game? Have the original devs left and kids took over? Perhaps the devs are just fed up with the ww2-ish part of the community and they try to alienate us, or itā€™s just overreaction on our behalf after some other still unresolved issues due to similar half-baked concepts.

Iā€™m absolutely okay if the weird stuff that was in ww2 is proportionally presented in the game, so give me a samurai for every 10 million non-samurai. Being constantly harassed by Ć¼vercivilians with their Obrez is not what I wish to play; now add the samurai and the thornk (thorny tank?) a month later and I will have a hard time explaining myself why I still keep myself entertained by the explosive spam. (Itā€™s just my opinion, not representative at all.)

Btw. they did a tremendous job improving the game engine and work hard on improving some parts of it but there are some design decisions hard to support. :stuck_out_tongue:

Good event, I feel like it was something much needed for the community to get away from the monotonous and boring stuff and start playing a good zombie mode. Thatā€™s the good part, now on to what (in my opinion) is the bad part. There is no barrier that incentivizes real players to race a group of 3 blind people to a non-existent victory. There are no rewards for killing zombies. There is no leaderboard like the last event. There are only 3 daily tasks, it doesnā€™t matter if you bought the battle pass or not. Why do they make us collect 800 tokens if weā€™re lucky enough to collect 80 per mission? There is no punishment for those who leave the game other than making them wait 5 minutes, just in case they get stressed, right?
