Ah.
The very long awaited Italian vs Commonwealth event! Much requested! Very subfactions! Such hype.
…
With a very fomo format like Market Garden, but in wich the goal is 9k per day, instead of the perfect 5k.
Why was it changed? Because gaijin also sells a booster to “speed up” the grind. It’s as sad a reason as this. 5k was perfect for everyone but the snail probably didn’t sell enough boosters to satiate It’s bottomless hunger for gold.
On paper, in the hands of shareholders it might seem like a good idea, profit! Money!
The reality is that every simp (well those with still a sliver of self respect at least), after being abused for so long by that high maintenance gold digger “girlfriend”… Will inevitably start looking elsewhere…
Enjoy the fomo event (those that do), I’m called in the “field of battle”…

Market garden was a exception since the gamemode was so bad you could barely make any score. 10 000 per day and 20 000 every 2 days has always been the norm
No.
It was 5k from the go in market garden, before players even said it was difficult (I had no issues, except God awful lag).
Players liked the 5k.

Well I am not saying that 9k is great, 5k is certainly better. Espacially later on when the “novelty effect” of the event disappear…
However, I must say that I felt like grinding 9k in this event was faster than the 5k in Market Garden.

Perhaps.
But the fact remains, the event format is not fun. Nobody likes fomo. Every day is too much, for so little…
(Only one of each gun? For 90000 and 81000 score respectively?)

Espacially Fomo where the rewards are so limited…

They have testers for events (atleast i hope so). Testers probably pointed out the difficulty to get score before the event was officially released

(Are you really trying to defend the multi million dollar company?)
What? I am not defending them i am just pointing out the possible reasoning for the 9000 score requirement based on information from past events. I would love if the score requirements would get lowered but that is unlikely to happen at this point

The only reason for the higher goal from 5k to 9k… is sadly very simple:
Somewhere the Brest Fortress, Kyiv, Minsk, the Baltics, the Battle of the Caucasus and Sevastopol are crying

Good, I thought I was the only one who noticed that.
I suppose so. They had to make the event trailer somehow. (And I don’t think they played a single normal game in Tunisia for it.)
Because it is easy to do in 3 games, just like Market Garden was - there are more kills to be had in longer games, more rallies to be used, more vehicles to destroy - I think over half the players in my last game got over 4500 pts - the top score was about 8200 IIRC.
Exactly - both events require about 2-4 games in a day to achieve.
It’s indeed, exactly my point. Requires more time. For less rewards. In a very strict format.
I think the devs are just experimenting with these new “even fights” at the moment. It’s quite the departure from previous ones.
Hopefully, they’ll find the right balance at some point.
For me, I didn’t enjoy the Market Garden event. I haven’t been able to try the new one yet, but I will over the next few days.
It’s not actually a lot longer - the MG games were 15 minute max IIRC - these are taking 18-20-is max - both can end sooner
But yes - the rewards are pretty crap regardless
I only played 2 matches of this new event. But from my experience, it’s far more easier to get more points per match in this event than in previous para one.

FOMO wears off when things get stingy…like 1 weapon reward, or a weapon that should be TT…or a copy paste vehicle thats main selling point, is the track armor that it doesnt have modelled
