Good day all,
World of Tanks Console has begun doing overviews each month to give players an idea of what events or sales will be happening, heres what we have for February:
Console Anniversary
February will be the celebration for the launch of World of Tanks Console, with that, logging in on the weekend of February 10th will grant you the Raseiniai BT-7A
Czechoslovakian Tanks
The long awaited Czech line will be coming to console February 13th.
The 13th will also see the introduction of a new map: Dukla Pass, inspired by the battlefields between Poland and Slovakia.
The same week will also see the (very flashy) Žižka Škoda T 40.
Defender of the Fatherland
A new earnable premium tank coming with the ‘Defender of the Fatherland’ operation running from 23 February to 1 March, the tank in question being a ‘Fatherland’ IS-3A variant.
Ranked Battles
February 17-19 will see Ranked Battles go live. Tier V only.
Sales
A few rare tanks will be making an apperance in the in-game store: KV-5, 105 leFH18B2, Tetrarch and the Pz.Kpfw. B2 740
February will also have a free trial period for Xbox Live silver members from the 16th to the 19th.
OK, so they still haven’t given up on tank skins.
I’m not against them. In fact, I’d love to have my tank painted in something other than bland, boring camo. But WG artists seem to not understand what “visually appealing” means. I mean, how in the name of God is the Patriot or the Liberté supposed to look good?? Sincerely, both of them have shitty schemes applied to them.
What about some solid black on which you could apply some neat white scratches? That’d look waaay better than what we’ve got so far.
Patriot is okay. It reminds me to Captain America for some reason. Could do with no writing on barrel tho.
Liberte is hit or miss.
That T40 above is atrocious.
Defender of Fatherland IS-3A reminds me to Red Alert for some reason, i kinda like it.
Current console skins are stupid. Period.
thank god there are more tank clones, which they’ll sell the original in a few months
Gotta train 6 crew skills on all your tanks and pay for all the gold rounds bro, only way to stay competitive
I like the Skoda’s paint job, it makes it will make it really difficult to spot when it’s submerged underwater.
Shouldn’t it be Motherland IS-3A? The Fatherland was a german thing but that’s none of my business.
Indeed..
Well you are correct considering the fact that Russian word Родина (literally “homeland” but is also often used with word “Mother” as in “Родина-Мать” and is even personified as a woman in propaganda posters and monuments) is of feminine gender.
There is already a “Motherland” on Console, it’s a reskinned T-54 mod.1
Defender of the Fatherland Day is a Russian holiday: http://gorussia.about.com/od/russia_events_and_festivals/p/Mens-Day-In-Russia-Defender-Of-The-Fatherland-Day-February-23.htm
Its Based off of a Russian Holiday “Defender of the Fatherland Day (Russian: День защитника Отечества / Den’ zashchitnika Otechestva) is a holiday observed in Russia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and several other former republics of the Soviet Union. It is celebrated on February 23, except in Kazakhstan, where the date is May 7.”
Can’t wait for the czechoslovakian tree, and the new premium tanks look awesome in those skins. The only problem with the ranked battles at tier 5 is the games rarely last 5 minutes if say it was at tier 6 there would be better gameplay and more emphasis on tactics on certain maps rather than everyone rushing to the same spot every time
