World of Tanks – September Twitch Care Package

8th set for September will be called “Hotel”.

The lootboxes will now lose the national aspect to them and might likely even lose the unique commander.  In the preview image for September, two nations are shown: China and the United States, and above them also 2 tanks (for rent).

Tanks for rent:
• Tier 7 Type 62 (🇨🇳China) for rent for 14 days + temporary slot in the Hangar and 100% crew forever.
• Tier 8 T34 (🇺🇸US) for rent for 14 days + temporary slot in the Hangar and 100% crew forever.

So far this is all that is clear and well known for the 8th twitch “Hotel” package.

WoT EU – Straight from Switzerland: Pz. 58 Mutz

Commanders!

Sure, a bear looks cool, but do you know what looks even cooler? A bear on a tank. Funnily enough, that’s exactly what the Panzer 58 Mutz is! But of course, there’s more to this Tier VIII medium than its paint job. Quite mobile and accurate, the Mutz is known for the good penetration values of its gun, which fires high-velocity shells. If you like to move around and snipe, this vehicle designed in Switzerland is a serious candidate for you!

World of Tanks August – WoT Birthday, Tank fair, Škoda T 27, 1.6 and more.

WoT Birthday

August 2nd marks the annual (who knew?) WoT birthday, with free credits premium tank. This time it might be the AM 39 Gendron-Somua, tier II wheeled car, but nothing is certain.

 

WoT 1.6 release

Containing new tanks, more maps, rebalances for missions and a farewell for the team battles mode and team damage, this patch is coming out on August 6th.

 

Return of tank races

Coming out very soon, likely on August 7th. Will feature your favourite speed criminal, the M24 Chaffee.

 

Tank Fair

This event is also coming very soon. All that is known that the event will be somewhat similar to the Black Market, prepare your wallets. More information is bound to come out soon. (Take this info with a pinch of salt)

However, more information has come out from our friendly russian leaker Sanya on twitter. It is possible that Škoda T 27 will be sold during this event or will have its own marathon (which is unlikely since WG has said in their recent QnA, that all marathons are on cease until September).

 

Gamescom 2019

Set for August 21 – 24th, bonuses for the community and announcements for all WG titles (Caliber and Pagan Online). Don’t expect much as main crème de la crème is scheduled for WGFest in September.

WoT EU – Changes to Personal Missions in Update 1.6

http://eu-wotp.wgcdn.co/dcont/fb/image/1920x900_ToLOw6T.jpgIn Update 1.6 we’ll simplify the conditions of about 40 missions from the third operation of the second campaign, which rewards you with the Object 279 early. Reworking the missions of this operation will lead the second campaign to a state that we consider final and well-balanced in terms of complexity.

In the upcoming Update, we’ll conclude the consistent process of rebalancing Personal Missions, which we started about a year ago. Based on our stats and your feedback, we’ve changed the conditions of over 100 missions, making both campaigns more achievable. And now we can finally say that the rebalancing of personal missions is complete. Get ready to play, farm, and get your well-deserved rewards faster!
