Updated October Challenge I

[Marcus 17,296]

 

Details:

• Event: October 2020 Challenge Part I

• Starts: Thursday, October 1st at 02:00 UTC

• Ends: Friday, October 16th at 02:00 UTC

• Duration: 15 days

 

Tankers!

 

The new Challenge starts tomorrow (Thursday, Oct 1st)!

We have implemented some changes to our Challenge activities so you had better read this announcement till the end.

 

We have been watching your feedback, and we have seen all your comments about Challenges becoming boring and routine. Many of you also have been saying that you spend a lot of time getting stars to complete a challenge.

 

Stars

 

In order to let you complete challenges more easily (not faster, that’s important), we are adding stars to daily, weekly, and special missions.

 

So, why is this better?

If you complete all the daily and weekly missions you receive during a challenge, you will be automatically completing the challenge.

 

But what if I miss some missions?

In this case, you still can earn stars in matchmaking battles. Also, don’t forget that special missions will also have stars in prizes! These will let you complete 3-4 stages of any challenge.

 

Will you just replace current mission prizes with stars?

No, no and no. We won’t replace the prizes which you receive from missions with stars. We will simply add stars to these prizes.

 

It looks like now I will be completing challenges in 3-4 days.

Challenges are challenges. They should be challenging so the number of stars you need to have to complete a challenge will be increased to 3000. Wait, instead of going to comments right now and writing that it’s impossible to get 3000 stars in 15 days, just remember what we have just told you: if you complete all the daily and weekly missions you receive during a challenge, you will be automatically completing the challenge.

 

We have decided to choose this number of stars because we find it an optimal number to ensure that these activities are still challenging but simultaneously convenient, and most players should be able to complete them by spending not too much time playing almost every day.

You do not need to spend a lot of time during weekends now, just complete daily missions every day and weekly missions every week.

 

We will also update star bundles in the Shop for those who want to complete challenges with the least effort.

We will keep an eye on your reviews and maybe some other changes will be implemented later to make challenges even better.

 

Prizes

 

In addition to the Crystals, Supplies, Batteries and other goodies that you've come to expect, this month's updated Challenge features the following special rewards: 

 

«Surf» animated paint

 

 

There is also a new regular paint to snatch up: 

 

«Target» paint 

 

 

And of course, don't forget the grand prizes in the final stage: 100 Tankoins (Silver Tier — free to complete) and a Skin Container (Gold Tier — requires Battle Pass). 

 

Open a Skin Container and get a cool skin! Each one may drop a random skin from the following: 

• Any XT Skin (except Gauss, Hopper and Ares)

• Ricochet LC

• Vulcan PR

• Thunder LC

• Thunder PR

• Railgun LC

• Railgun PR

• Hornet LC

• Viking LC

• Viking PR

• Hunter PR

• Titan PR

• Mammoth LC. 

 

It's a great way to finally complete your collection!

 

Don’t forget that, with Premium Pass, you will receive twice as many stars for each battle!

And as requested, we have returned the Premium Pass + Battle Pass bundle which will be available in the Showcase within 5 days after the start of the challenge.

So, log into the game on Thursday (October 1st) and start completing the missions to get your stars!

@Marcus How many stages/tiers will be there because of the increased amount of stars? Will it still remain at 50?

It is good because with the crystal fund boosts, those missions were really the one of thet easiest to complete. This balances out the difficulty.

Redo the calculation i think you overlook something important.

[soldierinduty 14]

Great decision to make the challenges more "challenging", applying the daily effort but not an excessive one.

Hopefully you won't make it necessary to complete the special missions in order to earn the required stars assuming people will just want to do the daily and weekly missions.

And if the cost of battle pass for both currencys (in-game and money) will remain the same, this will be another + for the update.

[Thankxtu 286]

They cant even increase the supplies amount. Just a meagre 15. 

[XP_Coffee 18]

Thank youuuuu! Now I can finally complete a challenge! Thank you!!!!

You can disable the autoshoot and use a double tap anywhere on the screen to fire.  I think it works a lil better cause you can't miss the button.

No, no and no. We won’t replace the prizes which you receive from missions with stars. We will simply add stars to these prizes.
