Let us know all your thoughts about the new season & update here:

As a reminder, here's a few things you might want to comment on:

  • USP Tank Reward: the Tier 9 Cobra
  • Lvl 100 SP Reward: the Era 2 Enigma
  • Japanese Heavies & Multi Turret
    (Please note: Unfortunately, with the new support added, there are some known issues when aiming in first person or sniper cam. When you enter these views, the turrets not currently being controlled will freeze in place and not follow your camera. We are working to address this issue as soon as possible.)
  • Commander Garage Display
  • Store Display (Skins show in store)
  • And anything else you might think of!

So instead of 9 points for the daily challenges we can have only 6 points?

#

And the weekly challenges only 5 points each instead of 7?

#

It will take significantly longer to finish the season

#

You will get less for the same price

Kinda getting sick of paying for a season pass with rewards I already earned a year or more ago in a different op or and old season pass. T77 & t92 . That's just straight laziness and a ripoff for the veteran players. Also bring back the old ranked battles. No one wants the new version you guys say everyone wants. If things don't start changing I probably won't buy the new season passes and might stop playing altogether.

This game is definately downspiralling. I just dont know when it hits the bottom, but inevitably it will. Unless they change their attitude more and more players will seek better pastures. It is a shame as this game had huge potentials.

#

This game was great before 6.0 but now not so much. I think that's why people are leaving wg. They probably wanted to keep the older version and were getting pushed out because of it.

#

@solar bear what other games like WOT are there? Armored warfare is dead! And war thunder is such a money pit who can even keep up with it

solar bear
#

@coarse stirrup My issue is the nerfed point system in season pass so you almost have to play every day to finish the season and you have reduced benefit from finishing it early (as you cannot finish as early as before) Regarding other games I did not mean players will leave for similar games like WOT but for something more rewarding and enjoyable.

The points nerf has ruined it for me. This will be my last season, in fact I might not even bother with this season's grind. You guys really need to understand that you are not doing us a favour by making this game, we're doing YOU a favour by choosing to play it over hundreds of other options.

The changes to MTS tanks killed any practical use of the secondary turrets for me. It was a horrible change that wasn't needed. All it does is overcomplicate the mechanic and cause more button presses to focus on 1 target.

#

Nerfing the season point rewards for the daily and weekly without informing the community is NOT OKAY.

fresh sinew
#

So it's now 4000xp for a single point, the Weekly missions are grindier for fewer points, the Daily missions award fewer points, and overall they've taken what was initially a very player-positive event structure and for the second time made it more of a grind and time commitment.

This has been done with no effort made to communicate the change to players - not even in the article about the season on the web portal. It is a significant change to the season scoring system that will make it less pleasant for people - especially when the challenges to earn those points require the same types of achievements as they did previously.

With a "Battle Pass" system coming to World Of Warships as well I have to assume this is just the new corporate directive, possibly based on a principle of "Well, Gaijin gets away with it so why not us?"

It's crap, and it appears to assume that either no one will bother complaining or that no one will notice - or at least not until they've already handed over their cash for the Season Pass.

And once someone has already handed over their money it doesn't matter on the corporate level because the Season Pass was a financial success - people re-upped again, converted to the paid pass, and are clearly happy; they gave us the money, after all.

This is an anti-player move that reduces my interest in the game, in the season, and in encouraging my friends to continue playing.

Adding the "0" kill counter next to everyone's gamertag during a match is unnecessary clutter to add the UI. It was much clearer before when only those WITH kills had the counter next to their name, so we could see the info at a glance.

For anyone who has predominantly played WW2 for a while, from a content perspective, this season is a disappointment due to duplicate tanks and an overload of low skill 3D commanders. Then you decide to make it more difficult to complete by nerfing the challenge points. You have made signing up to the season pass questionable for many casual players, whereas previously it was an easy decision.

#

It’s good to see that after taking a 6 month break because the game was boring and you didn’t listen to what that community wanted that nothing has changed and you have now resorted to giving us tanks that we have already earned in a previous season. You have then made it harder to progress in the season pass my dropping the amount of points you get from doing weekly’s/daily’s. Then you wonder why you have lost so many veteran player!

0 counter kill needs removed. Completely unnecessary. I just don't understand why you guys waste time and resources on altering such silly little things like that, same with font styles and then the crew perks in the garage screen. Work on things that matter, not little things that never had issues in the past and do not need changing.

Yep. Who would have thought that a box with a highlighted outline would draw attention to a specific area, crazy eh? If an outlined and highlighted box was necessary, which it isn't, it should draw attention to the earnings that people get with premium time or could get with premium time. Why on earth highlight the negative rather than try to highlight the positive and create upsell opportunities? Makes no sense at all.

Why have daily and Weekly points decreased?

  1. Why'd you decrease the amount of earnable points?

Too many bugs and failures added to season points nerf, all the delays on tank tech trees and a Karelia that is taking too long to appear, sure conveniently "redesigned (aka ruined)

Only good move (for the sales dept. results, the only thing that seems to matter) is throwing the Cobra into the expensive pass.

I'm thinking it's a bad season pass cause in the premium pass a new player can get a tier 9 tank and is able to play in higher tiers without having to grind these higher tier tanks and really no one really cares about reskined tanks. But it's nice that u put in new tanks but pls make in the future tanks wich aren't completely broken, I know ur able to do that the Caliban is actually fun to play without being broken, so please make tanks wich are FUN to play but not completely broken. We all want a game where u have to learn about armor and wich is not to easy to play like a type 5 where u not even really have to aim cause with the derp ur always doing ur 500 dmg per shot what is in my opinion just stupid.

@sinful trellis be nice to actually get any tank from keycards...I don't think I've received a single tank or dupe equivalent from any keycards from the last 4 or 5 + seasons

Also, to agree with others, this will be my last season card purchase until they reverse the points nerf. Vote with your wallets folks.

Drop in points you receive from challenges. Also I used to be on par for wins/losses. Since the new season started I seem to be stacked on teams where losses outnumber wins 2 to 1. Hard to get xp when you loose 66% of the time

@west condor yeah they definitely don't care since players have been asking for certain things and they work on things no one cares about. Recycling tanks is getting old too. They need to hurry up and listen to the community before more players leave the game. I have one foot out the door already and I used to play alot. Usually between 500 to 700 games a month now I'm down to 200 or so. This game use to be great right before 6.0 now it just aggravates me

#

I mean you need to buy the season pass only once or with gold you got for free.
So I don't think they'd care what you spend your free obtained gold for haha.

But I usually buy the 6000 gold season pass. So I think they would since I spend actual money and not just the free gold I earn.

Yet still has better value than past season which offered a light tank that is about 7k/8k gold in value.

That's why i said in previous comments that's the only real good part. You won't gonna see that easily any Tier IX Premium for 6k gold even on bundles.

the 10 mm armour on the super heavy, massive dispersion on certain tanks, guns pennable , skills not triggering, UI bugs, models glitching, auto snapping turrets start of game or when aiming at times …and now aim lock (take your pick) guys don’t release a new season on a fixed roll one into the other, 1 month is obviously not long enough for the devs to properly change and test code in between the other work they are probably trying to do

Great season as it has the Enigma as the reward. Ended up using my keycard gold to buy out the season once I did the weekly challenges. Great tank. Also like the monster challenge once finished there is additional bonuses to play.
Been playing for 5 years and now only CW mode.

#

I bought the season pass for myself and two friends. The season points were nerfed. The turrets on the tanks are in slow motion. The game is freezing up having to reboot in the middle of matches. This has been the most disappointing season in the year I've been playing. Was really looking forward to it and just got disappointing. I feel like I've been cheated.

#

From here on out when a new season comes out wait two or three weeks. Before buying it.

This is probably the worst season to date. The new second gun on the type 4 & 5 heavy is terrible. You guys added a huge weak spot. A tier 2 tank can pen it. Either buff it or remove it all together. Or buff it and also make it removable if you don't want it on your tank. Every shot just pens no matter what. I think the armor value is at 10. Great job WG. Please fix A.S.A.P

WoT tells us all about Monster tanks and how they come with a commander. Then WoT removes the commanders and any reason to get the Monster tanks at the same time. Then WoT does not lower the price. Lol that's pretty tone deaf WoT.

That is just a couple of decent sesh, if people cant find 1 solid day per week to play tanks then do they really deserve the season?? People have enough time to post messages here, see friends, have friends over, go out on lash. Anybody not completing season is just finding other things to do and thats their choice, so not completing season is also a choice. The season is not hard job, its modern day people wanting reward without work.

# hasty cargo doing your dailys even every other day completes the season

Hmm, no:

63 days in season * 6 points/day = 378 points if you get EVERY daily Op.

However, you are highly likely to get some weekly Ops points along the way.

So yes, it can be completed, but not as fast as previous seasons. That means less time for XP, Commander XP and silver bonuses...

Progress is definitely slower this season.

Yep, weeklys are what put you over + the point for 1500xp, your going to get it if you do 10-20 battles every other day, weeklys will all roll in together, i did get a 25 part head start cause it was right time to get a 6k. OR put 2 solid days on it so there is no chance of not doing it. You free for entire month then. The game is very well playable for free by the average player, if you factor in LH and the 4 key cards in season. Try playing enlisted for free yeah, pure pain and misery.

For me the idea behind a Season is you play regularly and get rewards for doing so. Op's is a specific reward. Both should not be difficult to complete. A Challenge and /or a Contract are more difficult to complete and may not be 'do able' so part of your reward is the knowledge that you actually finished. This does not apply to Seasons or Op's. If it ain't broke don't fix it, hence player reaction to the points change.

I'm not a particular fan of the restructuring of the points system. Dailys 3→2 and weeklys 7→5 points respectfully. Granted it does slow down ppl from rushing to lvl 100, it also feels like your effectively doing nothing each day and the best your going to get is a level a day maybe 2

# deft jungle It's fine for 4k gold - I would be underwhelmed if it was 16k gold like the T54 ...

Most of the Tier IX Premiums are kinda meh compared with the regular Tier IX's. Being the exceptions the Kpz.50 and this no-P2W T54 Cobra. (I could add the Concept 1B on certain scenarios, the Char Futur 4 and the AE Phase 1 definitively not).

UK Cobra is, different than any other Tier IX. Quite an array of pros and cons one has to deal with, lots of potential too if one know how to use it.

Oh, that way they can perfectly do. Is a system they had done for years so, yeah. Getting up to a limited number of options is clearly a way up for that.

Still, i do remember that in the streamings someone suggested about vouchers for premium vehicles and/or discounts and, that idea was quite received with attention. However, that was before several big names on the studio flee and, some of their accepted ideas were taken down since then so, this last can be iffy as things are right now.

tight trellis
modern spear
# tight trellis Yeah was maybe me asking for vouchers, been asking since the beginning. IDK what...

I share that last point, i wouldn't even invested a penny on this season except for the deal on the Cobra (like, a 17500 gold tank by 6k as much for a tank that i do appreciate and enjoy). In fact checking streamings on most regular players, most of them hasn't invested on the season at all even having enough gold for it (maybe waiting for last weeks?)

What seems financially viable for sure is to pull out a couple OP Premiums and go FOMO all the way like this was 2015. One can start to make a list of tanks like the Taran, WWII Panserjager, T54 Cobra and, newest addition, TL-7 Black Ed. as i'm sure that one gonna give a word or two out of his performance. All of them more than confirmed to be unavailable except for when the team feels like under the conditions they feel like.

Yeah it does seem ‘to have lost its way’. But then they can always ‘balance adjust’ when sales fall? Then release some ‘new’ op tanks. I think the main problem I have with this game in its current form, is taking out a TT tank and knowing you’ve got no chance. Good players will always be good no matter what they use, but average players like me need to feel we’ve got a chance. I’m 99% complete for TT WWII (CW doesn’t do it for me) so what next? I have soooo many premiums it hurts just cycling through them. I probably use 3/4 regularly and many have one game on them. They need to come up with something new or bring back something old. I’ll be here till the servers switch off and just bought a years premium because I want the game to survive somehow ( I don’t think it’s dying, just has a cold)

Honestly i do try to be competent enough on anything i drive with results (not super uni of course, that's a way far call to me, heh) but, kinda feel the same with certain TT tanks but not all of them (the issue is more glaring on Tier X if you ask me, where most Tier IX are as competent or more than certain X's that remain crippled for whatever reason)

About that of having completed most of the grinds if not all of them like you did (kudos for that!), sadly the answer from the devs is CW. A mode designed purposefully to drain out veteran pockets with over-lenghted grinds and over-priced modules and vehicles. A mode that wouldn't have had any boost on post-battle earnings if it wasn't because new players got into it thinking that was the main game mode.

However, with this movement of people in the studio, all the projected lines both for WWII and CW had been delayed Up for 2023. And even if we count potential Blitz lines (that they have to work out from near-zero as they stated with certain reason) and the 4-5 lasting tech trees from the actual PC version (including a line still on works at that sum), there's no much else to add to WW2.

# tight trellis If CW is the future I doubt I’ll get my money’s worth from my premium. Being one...

Honestly TV is the least of my problems with CW for me but i fully understand you. And, yeah, i do not like that mode as well because, well... I do call it myself "Clown War" after playing on Eras 1 and 2 and seeing footage of Era 3.

For a person that enjoyed certain game that properly recreated modern vehicular combat as people ostracized it (AW, just as a hint) Cold War mode feels like a really bad joke.

Didn’t a lot of devs cross over from AW a while back? Certainly feel a lot like that ‘game’
I tell hope they realise that CW is not the answer, they had a brilliant game just needed a ‘tickle’ and they gave it a full on slap.
I do get that this is a game it’s nothing like real, but CW is just chaos, smoke, rockets etc these old eyes can’t manage that anymore

Can we please be able to train commanders in more than 2 tanks? And if a commander is skilled in a tank, can that commander be automatically applied to that tank when selecting it for a game instead of having to n having to remember to reassign them. A little warning message can be applied if a commander is in a destroyed tank if you’re trying to select them for a different tank they are trained in. So basically, have a barracks where you can apply the commander to more tanks as they level up.

Unlike previous seasons, I haven't been driven to do much this season. Only playing on my days off from work, I'm only on part 70, and not really encouraged to go the rest of the way. I find the end rewards to be very bleh. Maybe that's just me, I dunno.

The last straw on this awful season must be the comeback of the week of recess. As this season ends on December 6th while the next starts out on December 13th.
