Could you please provide the procedures for entering battle with you.  Also how long does it take to get the gold after the battle?  Are there any restrictions like tier type or total?

We really can't control who we fight against, I always write in the chat when we get in queue so you can try and queue at the same time. We will be doing only Absolute tank companies tomorrow, so, be sure to be in an absolute company and stay on the chat!

I'd love to do so but I don't have any tier 7+ vehicles and I'm not willing to nerf the win rate in my stats for any of my vehicles. I'll watch for the next junior or medium event although if it were champion I could at least run lower level artillery just to be there.

We just did a Champion tank company last week

Please do some of these at a time so West Coast USA players can participate.

This ends before most folks on the West Coast even get home from work.

Good job WG. This is a good incentive for starting up absolute companies which people usually avoid in favor of champions or mediums.

[DarkKaiser810]

[hideandseek427]

Thank you. There are many of us in the Pacific timezone that have missed a portion of (or the entire) special event more than once because they start so early. I get off work at 5 (ish) so to be safe 6pm for the start time once in a while would be nice. Just my 2 cents and thanks for all the specials and effort to keep things fun and interesting!

Oh yeah - and just show me where...you...are, WG!  

[MasterBandstars]

I was just wondering do we have to take a screenshot image of us battleing you are do you automatically know who to give the gold too?

lord_farquad is great. He also calls the tank companies and does a fantastic job!

At some point we're thinking about live streaming the tank companies so you all can listen in. http://forum.worldof...Smile_great.gif

Hi we were lucky to fought against your team in the absolute TC but I haven't receive any gold yet. Anything wrong? Thanks

It takes about one week before the gold is sent out.

BTW good fights last night WG. Your team was much more formidable than last time.  

Gaea made my tank go boom and then we lost.

15-3 sweep

wheres my 600 golds  


btw, I kind of get tired of playing people who obviously are not coming for the games competitively (tier 6-8s against tier 10s) and are fine just getting to you for 300 gold. How about changing the config to 900 and 0, 900 for wins against you and 0 for losing. It would ensure more fun rather than just sitting and clicking.

I had 3 'competitive' games other than WG. One where Forge roflstomped us because my strat sucked and they are better. One where WAR stomped us because they were better. Finally, one against Forge that was decently good (still lost). The rest were wins against not full teams or lemming rushes.

[The_Chieftain]

That's a fair point, and obviously not an intended consequence of these events. (I'd say the real purpose is just to have a known point in time that people can reliably have company battles, not so much to fight against us.) We'll be sure to kick this problem around, though our solution may not be identical.

Another thing we may do is not announce when going into queue: If people can't be ready standing by to hit ' battle' at the same time as us, there's little purpose in suiciding to get back to the companies prep screen.

That said, our win/lose rate was such that we encountered few "also-ran" teams: We're really not that bad (pulled off some wins against some known good clan teams) but still lost a fair few.

The problem then is it's even more of a crap shoot whether or not you get into a battle with WG.  Some people specifically go out of there way to play company battles when this event is on just to play against WG(gold or not), and many people wouldn't choose to do so, or have a bad taste left in there mouth if there was no remotely reliable way of getting into a match with WG.  The event would lose popularity immediately, plus more so over time as interested players get frustrated at having no idea if WG is playing a game or not.

[Katukov]

That was first time I run and participate in absolute tank company ever. I have really liked it.
Thank you WG!

I never could  run it before due to none existence of opponents. I was envy to Russian server since they had plenty of those.

And we meet WG company 15 minutes till end. That was lucky and full of excitement! I got still wall

I joined the match with WG team on April 27th, but I haven't received the gold. Is there anything wrong with the system? Thank you

I already got mine. You should PM Gaea or GeneralDirection.
