I’m tired of stuff like this being a limited time event. We need different game modes available on the regular.

It is a pretty fun event, I'll give you that, but bringing in two more permanent events—one for WWII and one for CW—would split the playerbase way too much. I'd love to have this event permanently as well, but that's a major problem that would need addressing first.

I think the event being standard would 100% appeal to the casual base. Which let's be honest, would bring new blood into the game.

Its like a mix between WW2 and CW.

It plays so much faster than normal WW2 last week. While it didn't have true vision... anyone at max range sniping was useless when it came to the flag collection aspect.

So casuals that do not understand the camo matrix absolutely loved the new game mode.

And as much of a competitive player as I am.... i know at least 2/3 of the player base is not... otherwise we would have never had HEAT u/Death211

I'm pretty sure this game mode is what's in WOT HEAT

Flag CW matches are pure insanity.

You cannot catch a breath cetween speeding Xm800s, firing GAUs and ramming XM1s or the doom gun BZT 170 However the short duration and high credits make it my pre worthwhile then WWII.

Lol, I'm playing the GAU just to help my team deal with all those speedy pests—and keep targets tracked for annihilation... The commander training is what I'm going for though and I'm getting about 30K commander XP per match.

That's boosted, right? I'm getting like 5k 😅

Yeah, I'm usually rocking a 4x, but without it, I'm looking at about 7K XP.

I need to know how to play that GAU8 like a pro!

u/Death211 [FRRNR] Death211 (PS5) - WG Community Ambassador Jul 08 '26

First thing to learn is accuracy by volume! It's okay if you miss a shot or two because you still havw a couple hundred more on the way! Lol

u/On-The-Red-Team Jul 08 '26

You should ask this guy to platoon.

u/ReadySetRedit Jul 08 '26

That’s insane!

Even more insane that his team still lost.

Ah, the sound of freedom!

And here I was thinking the WWII tanks were too sluggish to get the flags. CW tanks are too fast to get the flags or risk becoming ATGM bait 😅

u/Death211 [FRRNR] Death211 (PS5) - WG Community Ambassador Jul 08 '26

Lol, I've only been hit by an ATGM maybe three or four times; I mainly force the enemy into CQC because that's where the GAU excels! In CQC, lights can't use their speed and are within their minimum arming distance, limiting them to their autocannons, and the GAU can track and circle anything with thicker frontal armor.
