Translates roughly to: Now that's not even Bull$hit, that's Horse$hit! 1. We did not ask for a "Bentley" or the Xmas equivalent of one 2. We do not want it just like that It's more like: "Hey guys, look at that shiny new Bentley and YOU can have it for FREE!! All you have to do is work the next 4-5 weeks for us, 16hours a day, everyday. You get a few trinkets from us for your hard work! Also, we want a g@ngb@ng with your wife, everyday of course, you won't have time for that anyway the next few weeks. Also, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to get the Bentley, but if you PAY us the actual VALUE of the Bentley, your CHANCES of getting it for FREE increases! Aren't we awesome?"

Wasn't there a News item where Wargambling said something along the lines of that there won't be any bonuses in regards to Research Bureau resetted lines and the Grinch Xmas event? Or do i remeber that false and they meant that restting the line during the event won't yield any more rewards? I am so confuzzled...but the major shizzle with Wargamblings Xmas eventizzle is making me very dizzle, but at least i can tell them my feelings tomorrow on their Twitch televizzle.

Well, it's a Wargaming game and...do i have to say more?

Sorry to hijack this thread for a somewhat related topic, but most forumites are here, soooo... Pls HALP!

So, i did reset my RU CL line to get the double bonus ~2 weeks ago, but couldn't forsee that i won't be able to play as my neigbour drilled a hole in the wall and cut one of lines and damaged the other one. So, today my ISP finally send someone over to fix the mess, hooray. But, i'm still at TVI, so my question is: do i get the steel/ SC rewards if i unlock the ships during the event? Or would it be better to blow half a million free XP on speed researching the ships? Pls HALP, tomorrow is the frak you playerbase...i mean Xmas grind update!

But...but you get it for FREE!* *Terms, Conditions and a mindbogglingly long and hard grind may apply!

I have hundreds of camos and between 250 and 500 of the dragon signals. I‘m not gonna waste a single one of them on this grind. And i don’t need to! Yolo-ing coop and ranked to get the stages done doesn’t require any camos and signals at all. This event is the definition of ‘throw enough $hit at the wall, some of it gonna stick’. And that’s exactly how i’m gonna play it.

Some of these requirements seem specifically designed to make players use up all their special camos and signals.

The Cynical part in me expects 'special' Boosters towards the end of the Event, where WG 'suddenly realizes and apologizes' for a 'tad bit too hard and grindy' Event. But thankfully, you'll be able, thx to Wargamblings infinite generosity to buy these 'Special boosters' in the premium store to get your Puerto Rico after all. Maybe i'm just too cynical?

Spread shiet said it's ok.

That's what i'm thinking. Thta's also the reason for me to focus on coop and ranked. I don't care about the former and i achieved my goal of rank 10, so i have no issues whatsoever yolo-ing or Focusing on directive play, even if it means playing toxic. If WG doesn't care, why should i? #HateTheGameNotThePlayer

85k base XP that's 1k a battle with average to good results depending on Victory or defeat. That's 85 battles a day times ~20 minutes...yeah, challenging. Sure. Remind me, how many hours has a day in parts of the world that aren't Russia?

Glad that this poll ain’t biased at all.

Yeah, i forgot for a moment that NA and RU start a day earlier. Deja Vu? Each and every time. Well, coop is good. Some of those directives are faster to achieve in Coop while others (base XP) are better for randoms/ranked. And i have no issue playing reckless in either Coop or Ranked to complete these directives. So, if someone of the forumites Encounters me in ranked and wonders why i yolo: Directives is the answer. #HateTheGameNotThePlayer Thanks!

Those requirements are effin ridiculous, even for a TX ship. No way there won't be a $hitstorm of Epic proportions if this goes live. EDIT: And if not everybody is supposed to get a Puerto Rico, why offering Doubloons as Boosters? Question is tho, are all of them doable in Coop? Cause some of them, like the kill ships directive would really be easier in coop: Yolo in, kill one or two, suicide, next ship and battle. And that's what i gonna recommend, assuming they can be done in coop.
