Gifts for veterans in December in honor of the tenth anniversary of the World of Tanks idea!
Actually, there will definitely be a T-50-2. And in the video there are older ones: Olga Sergeevna and Mikhail Zhivets with spoilers for 1.5 Also Serb’s file and patch 0.7.0
Tankers!
World of Tanks will soon have a kind of anniversary. Ten years ago, in December 2008, a fateful meeting took place at Bityukov’s, where the word “tanks” was uttered for the first time.
Wargaming at that time was a small development studio that dreamed of creating something truly big. We even tried to release a fantasy MMORPG, but in the end we replaced elves and orcs with armor and guns.
“Tanks” was released in August 2010, and everything that happened next is already part of history. But this story is definitely not boring. Four Golden Joysticks and a stubborn balancer. Two Guinness records, more than 150 million registered players and hard work on the capacity of game servers. Dog. Beautiful from all sides 8.0 and controversial “Rubicon”. Teleports. The legendary “Runet Prize” and the epic random distribution of gold in new year holidays. Finally, “exit from beta”: version 1.0, the most complex update from a technical point of view, which laid the foundation for the further development of the game.
In fact, there were many more memorable moments and many more will happen in the future. The game moves along a difficult but exciting path. Sometimes it’s possible to walk along an already laid track, but often you have to go off-road. But when you have a huge army of loyal and persistent players behind you, it helps. You have been with us for more than eight years. Thank you very much for this! It will be more interesting later.
Well-deserved award
As a token of gratitude, we have prepared a special event for you. Gifts await everyone who registered in the game until December 31, 2017 inclusive. The reward you receive will depend on the date you first entered the game, and you can find it in the “Achievements” section in the game client.
To receive rewards, you need to log into the game from November 28, 9:00 (Moscow time). You can pick them up until December 2019.
We have broken down the rewards by year: if you joined the game on December 31, 2013, your reward will be the same as those who registered on January 1 of the same year.
Thanks again from the whole team. We are trying for you.
May the VBR be with you!
Wargaming's birthday is a holiday not only for the developers of the game and those who made efforts to create it, but also for all its avid fans. Players of the HERE universe are looking forward to August, since the 12th of this month is considered the official date creation of World of Tank. This year marks 8 years since this tank battle, beloved by millions, was released. It is worth noting that the Wargaming company is much older than its own popular game. This year she will celebrate her 20th anniversary. It was founded on August 2, 1998. Therefore, gifts await not only fans of HERE, but also any parallel projects: WOWS, WOWP.
WOT 2018 birthday is a time of gifts, surprises and promotions from Wargaming. Each player can receive a nice bonus if they fulfill certain conditions. They change every year and what exactly awaits the players in the current season becomes known shortly before the memorable date.
What gifts have you prepared for this year?
Day birth of Wargaming this year will be marked by a special promotion that will last from August 12 to 15. What exactly will be offered as part of this event is not yet known for certain. The secret will be revealed only in the first days of the month or a little later - immediately before the start of this promotion. But we know exactly what will be offered as a gift - this is a T-45 tank. To get it, you will have to spend personal time. How much depends on the player’s level, his combat arsenal and luck. Since August 12 is Friday, and August 13 and 14, respectively, are the weekend, the number of players involved in this event is expected to be colossal.
It is worth noting that the Wargaming 2018 birthday will be celebrated not only for the 4 days mentioned above. The developers have prepared many other promotions and marathons, most of which fall in August. It turns out that the name day HERE will be celebrated not for 1-2 days, as is usually the case, but for a whole month. So, as part of this holiday, each player will have the opportunity to receive gifts for his WOT birthday, even if he was unable to participate in the main celebrations.
World of Tanks birthday gifts are usually standard, but nevertheless desirable for all players in the universe. So, as part of the holiday promotion, you can buy gold and premium accounts cheaper than usual. Or earn a certain number of gold coins for completing specific combat missions. We’ll find out a little later what exactly awaits us this year. In any case, you shouldn’t miss August - take an active part in all ongoing promotions, receive bonuses and earn prizes. And then August will become a truly festive month for you!
Time to buy premium tanks
Since we are also ardent fans of the WOT universe, we have timed various promotions and special offers to coincide with WOT’s birthday. Throughout the month, all kinds of discounts on premium products will be available on our website. Thanks to this, you can buy gold, a variety of premium equipment, and premium accounts at a big discount. For Wargaming's Birthday 2018, we have prepared game sets. They include the most popular paid products HERE: several tanks, tank + gold, tank + gold + several days of premium accounts. You will find an interesting offer for every taste. Choose any, pay with a discount of up to 50% and enjoy gaming benefits today.
On the current day of boiling potatoes, everyone is discussing not the topic of a wretched gift from WG, but the fact of the complete failure of this very holiday, and this is just a great reason, how did potatoes celebrate the day of boiling tanks before. (author Konstantin Marataev)
I’ll say right away that here I’ll be looking all the way back to the ancient tank ages, so there will be a lot of buffoonery, and if you’re not an inquisitive mind, but Mr. “why are you hysterical, it’s still fucking awesome,” you don’t have to read right away)))
WoT birthday in 2011
2011, tanks is a very young game, but is already celebrating its birthday)
* From August 12 to September 12 (yes, a whole month) from You can buy all gold consumables with a 60% discount(then they were sold for real money), and besides You could buy gold shells with a 58% discount(back then they were for real again).
* Also, any player, from August 12 to August 22, could activate a bonus code for 1 day of the premium. Those. this freebie could only be received by those who followed the game news on the game website (or in thematic communities)
* From August 12 to the 15th it was possible buy slots and equipment with a 50% discount(rammers, optics, etc.), and also get x5 for the first victory of the day
* all alpha and beta testers who entered the game from August 12 to 15 received a whole week of premium account.
WoT birthday in 2012
This year, potatoes, as in the past, did not celebrate the company’s birthday, but only the day of the game’s cooking, but the scope of the festivities has already grown slightly
These days, in the premium store, special offers appeared (unfortunately, no one indicated the size of the discounts, and the rates have been floating since then, so it will just be a list)
* Type 62 (first available for sale)
* 2 thousand gold and 2 million credits
*Type 59
* PzKpfw B2 740 (f)
* PzKpfw 38H735 (f), tier 2 tank, complete with 2 thousand gold
* Premium accounts for 6 and 12 months
As you can see, even then the potatoes did not hesitate to sell low-level premium tanks with a load higher than the cost of the tanks themselves. However, this was logical for a Minimouse; the car was a terror for kids back then))
Interestingly, in 2012, no one in the potato community decided not to please ordinary players with x3, discounts in the game client, or anything else like that. Only special offer in the premium store. No one has remembered about alpha and beta testers, and no one will remember anymore
On the other hand, around August 12th there were other interesting events:
* From August 3rd to 6th: x3 for the first victory of the day, 50% discount on resetting skills and crew abilities, as well as discounts on a premium account (for 3 and 7 days)
* from August 18 to 20: x2 experience in each battle, double profit from the battle conventional tanks(T-34-85, Hummel, AMX 12 t, M18 Hellcat) and x1.5 battle credits for some small premiums (T-15, T-127, T2 Light Tank, 105 LeFH18B2)
But if we sum it up, we can safely say that in 2012, the game was growing so steeply that the developers simply put the screw on the players. The logic of the company was simple - you pay us, and we let you suck. But then everyone liked to suck, because it was a new thing)))
WoT birthday in 2013
For the first time, potatoes decided to celebrate not only the DR of tanks, but also their own 115th anniversary.
On the company's birthday, all players registered before August 2, 2013 were awarded "LTP", generally a good then preferential light tank of the 3rd level, in gameplay more similar to medium tank. In addition, from August 3 to August 5, the following luck was in effect:
* x3 crew experience in each battle
* 15% discount on all tier 10 tanks (except for the batchat, then there was a 30% discount on it)
* 30% on premium shells (for silver, yes, randomness suffered for a very long time and they didn’t run a similar promotion again)
* 50% on camouflage
* 50% for training and reset of crew skills
* 50% on slots and places in the barracks
* Discounts from 15 to 50%% for a premium account (especially favorable discounts were for 3 and 7 days)
Then some very interesting ones came out combat missions:
* Depending on the level of the tank, you had to lose and gain a certain amount of experience, as a result they gave +50% to pure experience and credits for the battle. For example, for level 3 vehicles it was necessary to gain 170 experience points, but for level 10 tanks only 500! Those. the bonus could be earned, if not in every battle, then every other battle)))
* There was a similar promotion for the winning side, the winners were given x3 to the crew experience (i.e., it was possible to take out as much as x6 experience to the tank crews from each victory!)
* For “Warrior” and “Sentinel”, as well as “Decisive Contribution”, they gave x2 credits from the battle
In the World of Tanks DR, the following awaited players:
* x5 from the first win of the day
* x2 crew experience on all tier 9 tanks
* 50% discount on equipment
* Standard discounts on premium vehicles (50% for levels 2-5, 30% for levels 6-7, 15% for levels 8)
There were also small knowledge bases:
* Get into the TOP 3 by experience and get +20% experience from battle
* Win a battle and receive 5 rations from the nation whose tank you went into battle with (1 time for each nation)
* Win 10 victories and receive 5 large repairs, first aid kits and extinguishers (1 time per account)
* Earn 25 thousand experience per day and get 1 day of bonus (1 time per day), in total you could grab 5 days.
* Win and get 3 days of premium account (1 time per account)
In addition, throughout August there were additional combat missions:
* Destroy 30 enemy tanks per day and get 30 thousand silver
* Get an epic medal and be taken out of battle 5 times more experience
* Gain 50 thousand experience in a day and get 1 day of a premium account, you could get it every day! Those. you could be a super nerd and get up to 31 premium days!
The holiday promotion was incredibly generous, but many tasks could only be completed in a random battle and on level 4-10 tanks.
Perhaps the most interesting thing was the opportunity to farm up to 39 days of a premium account for the entire month of August. This will never happen again (((
WoT birthday in 2014
Here I will no longer consider the DR of the potato itself; since 2013, the holidays have been divided, so now only a pure holiday of the world of tanks will take place.
Realizing that in the 13th year the holiday was simply magical, the potato pulled itself together and had much less fun:
* x5 from the first win of the day
* 50% on equipment and equipment
* Standard discounts on premium equipment
* +50% crew experience on tanks of levels 5-8
* x2 crew experience on level 9 tanks
* x3 crew experience on level 10 tanks
* 1 day of premium account for logging into the game
* 1 day of premium account for winning 3 battles (minimum 100 damage)
* 1 day of premium account for winning 9 battles (minimum 100 damage)
* 5 rations of all nations, for winning 3 battles within 3 days
Also, at this time, special offers were brought to the premium store, although they looked like an outright mockery of the players:
* 2,500 gold and 2.5 million credits
* 5,000 gold and 5.0 million credits
Yes, it was all at a discount, but the potatoes couldn’t offer anything rare and suitable for a holiday
On the other hand, from July 31 to September 1, there was still a promotion in which tier 8 tanks with a 180-day premium account package and all sorts of small bonuses, such as rare premium tier 2-3 tanks, were sold for $100.
In general, the DR in 2014 came out, after the 13th year, so-so, but on the other hand, 3 days of premium is better than the current 1 day)))
If anyone is interested, in 2014 the gift tuna was given not for the game’s BD, but for the company’s birthday, it was just an incredibly terrible level 2 Japanese, it was given to everyone, you didn’t even have to go into the game.
WoT birthday in 2015
Let me remind you that this year it became clear to everyone except the potatoes themselves that the game is going down the drain and is stagnating. Plus, everyone was waiting for the release of a tank project from MailRU, which then seemed, if not the killer of the World of Tanks, then certainly a serious competitor.
It was in the 15th year, in the fall, that you could farm yourself E-25, several hundred gold consumables and huge bonuses to experience, but on the birthdays of the game, the following options awaited players:
* from August 12 to August 15: x5 from the first victory
* from August 15 to 17: x5 for the first 5 victories per day (condition, damage at least 1 car)
* 15% discount on semi-annual and annual premium account
* 15% discount on tier 8 premium tanks
* 15% discount on level 8-10 upgraded vehicles
* 50% on equipment, equipment and slots
* Converting experience into free experience at a cost of 35k1, instead of the standard 25
You could also earn 1 day of premium and just a gorgeous premium tank of the 3rd level, BT-7A, the tank played like a small T49 and gave the owners a lot of pleasure, 3 levels from the gift were crowded until the winter))
There were also combat missions:
* Damage an enemy vehicle in battle and receive 5 combat reserves, +15% to experience, +100% to free experience, +100% to crew experience and +25% to credits. Everyone acted for 2 hours (let me remind you that the reserves just appeared before the holiday). You could only have reserves once.
* Win 5 victories and receive 5 gold first aid kits, repair kits and fire extinguishers (1 time)
* 1 time per 15 victories gave Improved ventilation class 2 and a Medium caliber gun rammer
* For 15 victories, they rented an “8.8 cm PaK 43 Jagdtiger” for 1 day, I remember the random one broke then, but it was fun)))
These days, the premium store brought traditional sets with gold and silver, “Großtraktor – Krupp” for as much as 600 rubles (because they attached 7 days of premium to it) and... New for 2015, “Cromwell B”. Considering general level the wretchedness of the then premium tanks of the 8th level, many bought Cromwell for farming)))
In general, the holiday was simpler than the year before, and in general a tradition had already begun to be traced, the further it went, the worse the holidays ((
WoT birthday in 2016
At the end of 2015, tank players were overwhelmed by incredible generosity, that it wasn’t a weekend or a holiday, potatoes were simply providing unprecedented attractions of generosity - the reason lay in a seemingly terrible competitor, tanks from MailRU
But the beginning of 2016 showed that Armata is not a competitor ((so everything began to decline, and the coming birthday holiday seemed frankly worse than some simple weekends six months earlier.
But in general, players received:
* x5 from the first win of the day
* 15% on premium account (180 and 360 days)
* 15% on premium tier 8 tanks
* Standard discounts on upgraded tanks
* 50% on equipment, gear and hangar slots
In addition, traditional combat missions were also present:
* Play 1 battle and get a T-45, a fairly armored tank of the 2nd level, the car was a confident average for our game.
* Play 3 battles (get into the TOP 10 by experience) and receive 1st reserve +100% experience from the battle, +300% experience for tankers and +300% freedom for 1 hour. It was possible to complete it only 1 time, yes, yes, for the entire holiday they gave only 1 reserve ((
* Play 5 battles and get into the TOP 10 by experience - get 1 day of premium account
* Play 10 battles, getting into the TOP 10 by experience and receive 6 rations for each nation
The premium store also didn’t have anything interesting; Mutz with a B2 sand imba was on sale, but by that time both tanks had already been on sale several times a year. They also put on sale the simply insanely terrible M46 Patton KR tank at that time, including in a set with the even more wretched M4 Improved vehicle.
That's all) If anyone needs to see the details, here are the links below))
If you want some kind of summing up, then since 2013, when the holiday was simply divine, every year potatoes have reduced the happiness of players, not only in terms of reducing freebies, but also in terms of interesting offers in the premium store (((
This year August 12th on the eighth day Birth World of Tanks, each player will receive a gift premium tank TKS.
In addition, players will enjoy discounts on equipment and gear, and five times the experience for their first victory of the day. Also during the holiday promotion there will be an opportunity to upgrade an existing one or buy new technology with discount. The World of Tanks birthday promotion will start on August 10th and will last until the 13th. During this time you will find:

The principle of performing combat missions is the same as for Wargaming’s birthday.
TKS gift tank for WOT birthday
The main bonus for players will be the Polish tank TKS. More precisely, it’s not even a tank, but a wedge heel. Due to light armor and the lack of heavy weapons, the developers of this combat vehicle were unable to reach the level of a tank. TKS should have appeared in World of Tanks 2 years ago and become the first Polish tank in Game.
Technical characteristics of TKS can be viewed. To get a tank you need to enter the game during the promotion period on the birthday of World of Tanks. Some of the gifts will be available after you play one battle on August 12.
By the way, on one of the previous birthdays, World of Tanks gave out Soviet tank T-45. And on the 5th anniversary of WOT, the developers distributed bonus codes that could be used to get Type-59.
Holiday Hangar
Already on August 10, players will have the opportunity to use the “World of Tanks 2018 Birthday” hangar. The release of the hangar is timed specifically for the holiday. He has two different types: day and night. Each option has its own unique features, including fireworks, spotlights, and a festival area with musical accompaniment.
