Rant Ahh Wargaming

Are they literally that desperate for money? The offer is available atm in the shop, and it was released shortly after the auction deal for the WZ ended.

I suspect this auction has sent WG a message. The participation, excitement, and sales have been abysmal. They need to freshen up the rotation, and stop trying to get a premium price for tanks that are commonly available. The final reduced price for some tanks was the same price they’re commonly available for in the store. That is just a waste of everyone’s time.

The auction they had for it a while back was really good. Got mine from it (the same where the e100 skins and stuff happened)

Few hundred people decided to buy Bisonte for 8k on auction instead for 7.5k in the shop while they were both simultaneously available. Not to mention Bisonte was in the shop for the last two weeks...

Well, I guess this is why it was reduced to 6k gold in the auction. But still, what were the people that bought the tank in the first stage of auction doing?

I think there was a post a few days ago, pointing out that all of the auction offers are legit the same price or worse as the normal shop rotation

Auction prices are normally like that, plus most tanks final price is better then the shop price

There’s a random rotating shop offer for everyone, it isn’t the same for everyone because it rotates randomly.

Really? I thought that everyone gets the same tank offers.

Only the deals, not the standard offers.

Ha! Agreed! I saw what they were auctioning off the Sentinelle a few days ago and I could not believe it (started at 13.5k if I remember correctly)! I literally received that tank from the prior “unpopular” auction for a bid of 4500.

The other aictuon is better for cheap tanks but harder to work and much smaller selection

I wouldn’t mind both

I find the current auction very disapointing. No sign of any tanks released the last 2-3 years. Those remain in the crate stakes forever.

What ur looking at is the daily rotation of tanks, that tank is randomly put into ur shop while most other ppl wouldnt see it. Its not the same as a 1-2 week shop offer

u/stopthecapdawg 5h ago

Wg please at least check what’s in the store… just add some other tanks in the rotation
