The VK 90.01 (P) from the Holiday Shop

... that gear goes here... Excellent! Next should be the engine... Now where on the North Pole did I put it? Let's place the turret atop the hull... Ah-ha! I am a genius. Oh, for holidays' sake! I did a naughty thing! I forgot the engine! It'll be fixed faster than a reindeer flies.



Oh, hi there! I'm Chris. Welcome to my Holiday Shop! Or did I say that already?... Anyways, come on in! Watch your step, especially your pinky toes. I keep the heaviest tank models on the floor. Oh, I see what you like. You like the one standing on the table. I'll be holi-delighted! I'm in the presence of a true connoisseur! It's the VK 90.01 (P)! I'm particularly proud of this creation. I even made a video about it:

Ho-ho-ho! Woohoo! Tier X, sloped armor, 230 millimeters of protection in the hull, and 300 mm for the turret. 1,000 horsepower, or shall I say reindeer-power, an enhanced maus gun, and exclusive consumables. Boy, it's so good, I can't just gift it to you!

How can you get the VK 90.01 (P)? I'll tell you how.

Update 6.6

Changes to Vehicles
T-62A
  • The maximum gun depression angle while facing forward was increased from 5 to 7 degrees.
Leopard 1
  • The reload time was reduced from 6.71 to 6.52 s.

The parameters of Tier I-V vehicles were slightly adjusted to make the transition from one vehicle to another more comfortable and logical, while their characteristics will be improved more often.

Improvements and Fixed Bugs
  • Partial concealment of grass in Sniper Mode was implemented. From now on, the enabled display of grass won't prevent you from aiming at the enemy.
  • The maximum number of video ads available for daily viewing was increased. You can now watch up to 5 videos in the Garage and up to 5 videos after battle. Up to 10 videos a day in total.
  • Crew XP is back in the Experience tab where it is displayed in the detailed battle results.
  • The issue when HE shells could deal damage to vehicles despite passing through objects was fixed.
  • Guns with successive autoreloading now no longer stop the loading process if the Loader was injured.
  • The display of accumulative medals that were marked as received even when they weren't was fixed.
  • The display of turrets in replays for Windows 10 was fixed. Previously in replays, they didn't rotate to their maximum.
  • Various screens and their interactions, as well as notifications, were improved. In particular:
    • Vehicle and module research when there's a lack of resources was simplified.
    • Shells won't be sold anymore when you change the turret.
    • Upon mounting the gun, standard ammunition will be loaded.
    • Confirmation upon the use of certificates for Premium Account time was disabled.
    • The Claim button was added to the screen with rewards from containers instead of the Back button.
    • The possibility to scroll through personal offers and notifications if you received several of them simultaneously was added.
  • General bugs and client crashes were fixed.

Rating Battles in December

Winter has set in, kicking off another busy season of battles for ratings! We know it's not just about the desire to get to the top of the leaderboard. The prizes, including bonuses for scoring a victory, a rare camouflage, avatars, and gold, are good enough to give inspiration, too! Right, Commander?
  • From December 5 through 31, play in Tier VII-X vehicles.
  • Fight ten calibration battles. Based on the results, you will be placed into one of five Leagues: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond.
  • Earn rating points and progress up the leaderboard, while moving from one League to another.

Remember: the better you perform in battle, the more rating points you will receive.
Rewards
Gold
  • Traditionally, the top ten tankers of each region will receive a reward:
Camouflage and avatars
  • After ending the month in the Diamond League (at least 5,000 rating points):
  • After ending the month in the Platinum League (at least 4,000 rating points):
  • After ending the month in the Gold League (at least 3,000 rating points):
Camouflage for the Diamond League is regularly updated. When a new warpaint is introduced into the Diamond League, the old one becomes available for the Platinum League.

How and where to install camouflage.
  • You can install the camouflage on the Tier VII–X vehicles that you drove most often when fighting this series of Rating Battles. You can get up to four warpaints for a corresponding League: one for each eligible vehicle tier, as long as you have fought at least 50 battles in vehicles of that tier.
  • If the camouflage cannot be installed on a vehicle or if it is already installed, you will receive 250,000 credits as compensation.
This month, bonuses for victories will still apply
Bonus to credits:
  • Gold League: 0–32%
  • Platinum League: 33–65%
  • Diamond League: 66% or higher
Bonus to Combat XP:
  • +10% to XP for Tier VII vehicles
  • +15% to XP for Tier VIII vehicles
  • +20% to XP for Tier IX vehicles
  • +25% to XP for Tier X vehicles
Please note that this is a fixed bonus for winning a battle, not an increase in the total amount of XP and credits earned.
