My all-time favorite event

[OilerCannonball]

First time doing the advent calendar here, so have a question. Would I be able to get, and finish, the advent missions without buying into the tank if I so choose? TY.

[BlackhorseEngineer]

So are we supposed to unlock and finish a mission everyday to see what the special vehicle is, or just on the first?, What WG still doesn't realize is slot of players, myself included work to support families and such, so once again If we don't get to a mission at the time required we get screwed, Merry Foching Christmas WG

The missions you can do without buying a Daily Deal.  Just be sure to activate them each day.

You've been here how long?

 

You know how the Advent Calendar works - that hasn't changed.

 

Missions and calendar offerings are mutually exclusive.

 

How many weeks do you want each day?

I need to back up a bit concerning my original post, I just wanna say this it seems, STILL, that WG only caters to people who have time to play 20 hours a day, so after all these years why haven't they adapted the WoT app and at least let us be able to buy vehicles thru it?, I can't operate a 12 ton vehicle driving and use a laptop at the same time, but my short answer is this, THIS issue is exactly why I refuse to buy anything more from WG, they don't keep their ENTIRE player base in mind, just people with no lives other than to live in the land of pixels

If you miss the big giant Advent announcement that slaps you in the face the first time you log-in each day, you can still catch those missions by clicking on the bulletin board in your camp-scene in the Garage.

 

I'm sure it will still be there somewhere in the garage during in the holiday motif.

 

30 yrs Army, and I can't remember what they call that thing.

I work Networking and IT and I can say for certain: a niche use case such as yours is not worth the development, maintenance, and implementation costs to make it happen, and the companion app to begin with is likely little more than an afterthought because it was a hot trend for a while back in 2010 for online games to have companion apps. Even when I worked in the medical industry, we didn't care about everyone's sanity. We cared if: it worked, over 70% of people could use it, and it was worth the money. If it didnt check those three boxes it wasnt happening. I doubt wargaming is any different.

A company that tries to appeal to every customers problem is called "Bankrupt in 1-2 years" because there'll be astronomical amounts of cash being wasted without return. Congratulations for realizing a corporate entity doesn't care about you.

they're now calling out the last day as only money... i was disappointed last year with that. i wonder what they'll choose this year.

You guys selling tanks or beer?    Either way I may be game.
 

[Cricketer]

What tank that nobody wants will be the last deal for only cash this time (last year it was the VK 75)? This year I'm guessing the T-103.

I played the VK75 on my sheriff account to see if it was something I'd want on my main account. Even with 12-perk crew, food, the works... What a potato-launcher of a gun.

Each offer will be available for both Gold and real money. The last offer, which unlocks on December 25, at 03:20 PT | 05:20 CT | 06:20 ET, is only be available for real money in the Premium Shop until January 1, 2021, at 03:20 PT | 05:20 CT | 06:20 ET. 

 

How about using some xmas spirit to the advent offer and use credits for a few of the days??
