Hello everyone,
it looks like Wargaming is following up on the Karl success and prepared a new “fun”, “8-bit” mode for Christmas:
This time, you will be able to choose from three tanks: Mammoth (US heavy), Polar Bear (French TD) and Arctic Fox (Soviet LT).
And of course there will be a medal:
I cant wait :)
Any intel on getting at least one 100% crew member per tank?
Looks like the T-50-2 is called Artic fox now :3
And 8-bit M1 Abrams is named like soviet super heavy tank from RA.
It’s not an Abrams, it’s the US Tier X T110E5 and Mammoth is from Red Alert and Tiberium Dawn, Tiberium Sun, Tiberium Wars and Tiberium Twilight and Renegade.
Exactly, RA series had Apocalypse tank instead.
I considered T110E5 too, but cheeks of the turret more resembles M1, yeah there same is MG turret like in E5. I know that these models are based on in-game vehicles – Foch, T-50-2 and T110E5 but still it’s Abrams for me. And I said “SOVIET super heavy tank”, when Mammoth from other C&C games are not really “soviet”.
Well finally something good and “balanced” to play WoT …. didn’t play it for 2 months.
I hope you will ask someone to send you a referral, so you can get some bonuses!
Anyone can enlighten me where those came from? Because Karl was logical, name and everything…
Probably a tribute to old games history. In old console (but PC too) names, especially in the late 80′s, all vehicles and characters had these silly/strange names like “Night Falcon” and such. It’s just nostalgia.
U no play C&C ?
mammoth tank came from GDI side of command & conquer
i want to know if these tanks will have an armor model
Awesome..
No.. really..
Btw will they make a HD pack for these tanks too? They look like shit! Oh wait..
Lol
Arctic fox it’s a meme! In Russian it’s will be “песец” (“pesets”), what is sounds like пиздец (pizdets – fucking end to everything).
:D are you sure about this alternative name for Arctic fox ?
Wasn’t T-50-2 called pizdyk or something like that?
Uhmm? The map will not be a square?

>No double barrel
meh
#command and conquer ;)
#Red Alert
Command and Conquer Tiberium Dawn came first.
Shouldn’t mammoth be rus heavy and fox for murika ? Considering they already have cats and bulldogs… Guess they were afraid of copyright infringement for the first one at least lol
I wondering, would there will be armor penetration value?
Well, since last time Karl only use HE .. we just need to hit the target, and BOOM
PS: I wonder how side scraping would work with those flat surface of the tank xD
i want to know as well
One word: Tiger 1
Let the Christmas fun begin. You’ll only get to play this mode for a month so enjoy it. When its gone its gone.
mindless fun. (But look out for the players who take it to serious)
Karl was fun to play. I had some members really sorry to see it go.
8bit T-50-2!!
This looks so fun. Gonna Foch u all!
There is one question on all our minds, what does the (Arctic) Fox say?
Go back to 2012.
I LOVE YOU, WARGAMING!!!!!!!!! – I mean, ahem… *straightens collar professionally* well done. :)
FACEPALM… your WOT fanboy status is showing
Those tanks are fun and unique :))
am i the only one notice there a big 2015 put into the map itself?
Holy Cow!!! It says 2015 WG. Um, Loominaty confirmed?
Polar bear…. #russian?
Another 8 bit mode eh. Hopefully the bgm and sfx also in 8 bit as well.
WG never cease to poke my nostalgic sides…..
