No idea how much they are though 'cause they aren't in the shop yet from what I saw. I assume they'll get added the day after each task or something.

30 kills? No problem.
30 kills that require the battle of Britain event map which tosses me into 207 ping RU servers? Problem.
I've only played Tank battles but wanna get into airbattles, any tips on a faction that is a bit "noob friendly"? Im pretty good at aiming etc (Eagle in CSGO),
Or if you could give me a good place to read up

Glorious Russian planes are best planes.
Is it another get-it-and-forget-it plane, just like TB-3?

For AB play Americans and get the P-40E and F2A-3 as fast as you can
For RB get the Bf-109F-1 or Spitfire Mk2 and go ham
For SB, Zeroes
One ohh Neins bruh yeaa
So you've only got 1 day to complete a task? which in my case is only a few hours.. rip floaty mcboaty planey
[QUOTE=Tarkin22;50117262]Is it another get-it-and-forget-it plane, just like TB-3?[/QUOTE]
tbh the TB-3 isnt all that forgettable
it's the only heavy bomber at its BR and it has by far the biggest bombload and defensive armament
[editline]12th April 2016[/editline]
the MBR-2 probably wont be an actually good plane though, no
Ah, now I remember why I dislike these historical events

What the fuck are you on about? For the Russian tankers it's mostly a 'FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT' simulator.
Calm your tits lmao.
For Russian tankers it's actually 'shooting fish in a barrel' simulator because not only are all the German tankers outclassed, there's plenty of them in a match to cull.
That's assuming you even get into a match though, since 99% of the playerbase has the same sentiment as I do.

The Pz IV F1 and Stug A's HEAT rounds would like to have a word with you, so does the team balance that's skewed in the Germans' favour (11:16).
Prohibitively low-velocity rounds that fizzle out if they so much as hit a speck of dust before your armour. I'll stick with my MD-8 nukes thanks, 'cause they're vastly more usable for farming kills.

DA; TODAY IS GOOD DAY, TOVARISCH.
tbh historical battles only really work as coop or pre-planned with strats n shit in a game like this.

what russian tanks are you playing? because I'm sorry pound for pound the russians wipe the floor with the germans at rank 1 and 2

Even with those it's completely unfair and there's basically no chance of winning. I've played quite a few matches of it so far and if this whole event is going to be as unbalanced as this, there's no point even trying. I've not even managed to get half way for today's challenge.
3 assists in the f9f-2 is impossible. You either get blown out of the sky immediately, can't catch anything, or your cannons hit like a mack truck. Even with mine spaded.
[editline]12th April 2016[/editline]
Setups need to result in assists, just spend an entire game juking mig17s and cl13s and setting them up to be killed and got nothing =(.
[editline]12th April 2016[/editline]
Part of me hopes the event is a guise to get more player data on the F9f's and we'll see a better fm soon. But somehow deep down i know that isn't the case and they'll be shit unflyable forever.
I forgot how utterly shit low-tier German cannons are. After three games of getting one-shotted while HEAT and APCR bounced off the fronts of T-34 mantlets, I finally hit one in the side - except he kept driving anyways, turned around, and killed me again.
Can't we at least get a Marder III?

How is this even a loss? We had more live team members, we had control of both the control points, and we had more tickets. Someone please explain.

Marder was built with captured Soviet ordnance, it's not going to be available in the opening stages of Barbarossa
Honestly in games like this I dont even consider a nation because of its strengths and weaknesses anymore, I just go with whichever aircraft/tanks I think look the best, the rest I can adapt to.
Well, that was fun. Averaged 5 kills an hour, and ran out of time to finish because of RL obligations. I wonder what the rest of the event will be like?

Come on Gaijin, this is totally in the time-frame [sp]it's not[/sp] pls add. It can be the American Kugelblitz.

[/B]This event sounds nightmarish, too. I originally thought the 30 kills was purely for anything, not restricted to some dumb MM-splitting event.
For over an hour now i've been trying to get the last few i need for this event, as the german side. This is extremely unbalanced.

Its actually not to bad really, tanks especially
I mean its early T-34s against german short barrel 75s, if you're willing to wait for a game you can finish it in like 4 rounds
[editline]13th April 2016[/editline]
better yet, there are twice as many germans as there are russians, so its a target rich environment
[editline]13th April 2016[/editline]
in fact it took me 4 rounds in gluesniff mode, probably would have been even fewer in RB

's a joke. They're more interested in the T249 Vigilante :vs:
Besides, the new GAZ and Falcon showed that they're clearly trying to move away from obnoxious tank-busting SPAAGs.
