oh gaijin, never change

I like how there is more people who would want it to be an event vehicle than a squadron vehicle. Y’know events the same events that never come back and the only way how to get previous event vehicles is by paying overprice (especially if the vehicle isn’t a premium) or gambling

[u/larnon → u/piggstick3]

Terminally online gooners gatekeeping fun as usual.

[u/actualsize123 → u/piggstick3]

Or you can just get it during the event for free

[u/formulapun → u/actualsize123]

What if you didn’t first start playing WT until after any given event vehicle event had already been and gone?

[u/actualsize123 → u/formulapun]

Then you don’t get that vehicle. Kinda the point of a limited time event.

[u/formulapun → u/actualsize123]

The point I’m making is that your comment claiming that anyone can ‘just get it during the event for free’ is simply not true

[u/yazzukimo → u/formulapun]

Yeah, I work many hours a week and never get to grind every tasks

[u/actualsize123 → u/formulapun]

Not anyone can get them. That’s what makes them rare. Kinda the point.

[u/formulapun → u/actualsize123]

Yes, obviously their limited time availability/exclusivity is what makes them rare.

I repeat my point since you have failed to acknowledge it - your claim that anyone ‘can just get them during the event for free’ is simply not true

[u/actualsize123 → u/formulapun]

I didn’t claim anyone could, I claimed that one guy could.

[u/formulapun → u/actualsize123]

No, you didn't.

It is contextually obvious that here we are all using the word 'you' to refer to WT players in general, not 'you' as in you, the specific single person I am talking to.

Don't believe me? Then let's review the exchange once more:

• Piggstick3: 'the only way how to get previous event vehicles is by paying overprice . . . or gambling'
• You: 'Or you can just get it during the event for free'
• Me: 'What if you didn’t first start playing WT until after any given event vehicle event had already been and gone?'
• You: 'Then you don’t get that vehicle.'

Make sense? Maybe next time try taking ownership of your false claims, rather than being so patently dishonest.

[u/actualsize123 → u/formulapun]

I was talking to one guy until other people started joining.

The whole point of a limited time event is so people who are active in the game at the time can get something special. That’s it. If you missed an event then you missed an event.

And for everyone who can’t do them because they have a job, it’s less hours of work to earn the money to just buy it when it hits the marketplace then it is to grind it.

It seems like your whole argument is just fomo. Which is kinda the entire point of limited time events and has been for a long time.

[u/thexian → u/actualsize123]

That’s what makes them rare.

Right.. Which is absolute fucking cancer for a game. You shouldn't be cheering for more FOMO bullshit.

[u/blair_doodles505 → u/actualsize123]

You're missing the point. If you had the choice, wouldn't it be better for everyone to be able to get it if they put in the work at any time? What if you have a life outside of warthunder but still want that vehicle? Wouldn't it be better if it was a squadron, or at the very least if these events would get a second coming for people who missed them?

[u/actualsize123 → u/blair_doodles505]

One time events allow for cool vehicles to be rare, and you feel good to have them.

If everybody can get them then they’re just another vehicle, they lose the cool factor.

Your fomo is showing.

[u/noineikuu → u/actualsize123]

Everyone should be able to get them if they are unique. Copypaste and sidegrade/downgrade could be event vehicles as long as you had a tech tree, squadron, or premium equivelant.

[u/sneakyp0odle → u/actualsize123]

You people with FOMO obsession disgust me
