Looking forward to checking this mode out tonight. My grandfather came off a Higgins boat on Omaha Beach during the D-Day invasion. He never spoke about the details that transpired. After he passed, we found that he earned two Silver Stars and one Bronze Star during that deployment.
My grandfather too went ashore at Omaha (though he was D+1--the next day--but apparently it was still quite bad. He always said he only survived because many people in front of him did not, I later heard an oral interview he did with our local history preservation society, and he vastly understated the things he went through. The fact he was a kind--but firm--well-adjusted father figure to me given all that still amazes me. The Silent Generation indeed. True heroes.
I just re-watched the stream-VOD skill, insanely happy you managed to squeeze the 3 mark after 18 hours. I was tied to my screen after the airfield match - I thought it was over. Congratulations 🎉
Did the hard diffictulty on 3rd try, game mode is not hard, but you need to learn the pattern of the battle, what enemies appear, what is their behaviour etc. It is a nice addition to the game, i remember it was some mode with berlin map many years ago similar to this. It would have been nice if they gave a D day badge to put next to the name, not just a medal.
I did 1 rigoureous, died in 1 min. Did normal version, completed in 15 mins. 3rd rigoureous again and did it in 20 mins. Now no more reasons to play until the next rewards get unlocked?
@@DouglasMeloche it's doable, but the only thing that matters if you can hit the panthers with the arty strike or not, the rest is pretty straightforward.
Think it would be very cool if they added the Sherman Crab to the game. Give it an alternate driving mode where the mine clearing flails are turned on. In mine clearing mode it could have lower horse power and top speed which would aline with the fact that the flails are driven by it's engine, but any tank that get's hit with the flails would basically take continuous ramming damage. As long as they don't make the damage too high I think it would mostly be a meme tank and not overpowered considering it would be stuck with the short 75mm gun. Low pen and mobility would make it pretty helpless against higher tiers. But it'd be fun whenever you manage to corner a someone with the flails.
I wish WG would make some rewards for playing it the second time. like credits or xp or something. it is a nice game mode and it's shame that if you play it again you wouldn't get anything, it would feel just like loosing time.
*This mode is OP. If you are a good player you can make 35 token every 15 mins and in 90 min you have 210 tokens. In 25 days you can complete the Battle Pass*
Every single time I do 50k dmg and lose bc my entire team rushes and suicides. Really feels like random battles, except I don't have to pay for the shells and the repair costs
OK, let me see. I went exactly the same path as you did. 5 times in a row. I came to the same spot at the beach as you did, but you didn´t lost 1 single HP, and I lost 25-30% of my HPs, every time. I am talking about that first spot at the beach. I finished the mission, but I´ve noticed this.
must be diffrent start spot i got since 1 sec after battle start i lost 1/4 of hp, and i died before i drove 10 meters, could not even get in cover.. how it was for me each time i start on this map i restarted a few times since i lost 2 tanks before we even get to shot the bunkers and i got snipe even in cover by the bunkers, and first game i went in with only 1 life left after the bunkers, and was not enought with the panther rush on me. So with how crappy my start was, was not a fun mode as the start just ruined in for me.
Took a break from WoT for 3 years and it wasnt easy to get into it in the beginning but patience and passive aggressive gameplay works, now i played 6 years straight and i LOVE it👍
@@mathiaskarlsson7672 Thank you for the encouragement. I spent yesterday 6/10/24 getting my butt handed to me. Several games I didn't even score hit. I wasn't a super player with a 5000 plus win8. Now my recent trips back to the game have been less than 2,000. Very frustrating but I guess I'll keep at it.
is "normal" difficulty win enough to unlock the next event in this holiday progression? I don't really want to grind the "rigorous" difficulty as I am a noob and lost 2 times and not really interested to play it any more.
The fact that you can fail this operation because your bot allies suicide and die is so stupid. I had a match we lost because all my bots kept getting ammo racked by the shore batteries about halfway through the mission. When I finally finished it, my last bot was 200hp away from losing the match for me and thankfully its AI broke and it stopped moving well outside of the line of fire.
how the absolute fuck did you get the panthers to drive INTO the artillery, every single time I try this they do their absolutely dambest to stop moving, turn around, go up the hill, ANYTHING to avoid being hit by it, its bullshit
the only disappointment is WG claim AI enemy and teammates and they every time just follow programmed path :D so everyone can finish the mode on hard just to remember where the tanks stop at the last few waves, dont forget for win is another 5 d day tokens
I will just say.... its not fair as new player play the stock grind vs premium tanks or people who played a loot. and have all stuf unlocked, would be nice to see an permanent mode such as grind xp for stock tank or field mods. vs bots.
Infuriating game mode, 1st one died horribly, second did better but still died at the last round as I had 14 hp left, was nearly done on the last round except it failed me because one of my allies drove into a barrage from the bnattleships. Roughly an hour of my life gone with nothing to show for it but frustration. Nice tribute WG
this is the worst mode ever i can't finish any missions LMAO. they really did a poor job. my best time was 16:33 minute. so close but still so far and i went fast. the thing is when a TD decides to camp you and you tryna save HP to finish with 1 life you just have to use the arty strike on him to kill him so you can come in range of bunker... also these panthers are way too fast and unpredictable to be able to kill with arty strike. i cba to spend more time on this crappy mode.
not true first play with win you get bonus loot after that just credit farming and tokens to spend on this months event... play it on repeat and in 6 days the 2nd and 3rd missions open up.
I think this event is so Bad . I would like play rankeds games tier 10 i'm wot, 7vs7 , or 15vs15, all days. But wg loves put randomly this shit ... Lmao . I like a Lot tour videos skill
AI is so bad in this game mode, that it's just frustrating to play. I gave up after the first try, as all my "allies" died in just 5 seconds by rushing into the last enemy wave. Rewards are garbage anyway. Bring back Road to Berlin, at least it was fun.
"Shiza" (german for sh*t) not shizen like he said listen closely to how it's prnounced the spelling messes up you english folks, odd a russian don't know how to read the letter there..... fyi that part of the subtitles was using russian letters after shi.... roflmao
Just a single time misión for every 6 days, BORING, not playng it, i want a full scale PVE event, manny misions per day and a grand final in the end of the month, but thats 100% impossible.
i was really disappointed when i saw the new unlocks on the pve. playing the same mission again, now just with timelimit and death limit. I thought it was okay the first time i played the map, but i dont wanna play it again. especially with those bot allies you have. they are absolutely hopeless. extremely disaapointed.
I reached the last stage where the AI spams Panthers, finally after doing 40k damage my allies pushed forward stupidly and died ending the match, Making it a complete waste of time. I have already tried this mode several times in the Rigorous mode, The first problem is as soon as you spawn the stupid Churchill commander makes your life miserable by blocking you from moving backwards and forwards to dodge the artillery strike, Later on once you started going uphill and destroy bunkers and jagd panther TDs with airstrike the last panther starts chasing you, Looks like they added some special instructions to AI, Ultimately the airstrike range is too short, In the final stage I am behind the dune on the left of the broken houses, If I move out of cover the ai start targetting me, When I try using the airstrikes which take a long time to activate and reload the enemy moves out of the zone or the stupid allied commanders rush in and get swarmed and die. If you respawn the airstrike cooldown in high in between your allies are dead, The sad part is I reached 46-48k damage spending almost 15min for nothing, Whoever came up with this mission is just lazy and it's broken.
hahaha skill acting like couple of points " I'm ok he says then "gets slapped" look on his face 😂 respawns. noob team, no support 😂🎉 This mode is hard WG were on crack when they made it
Hello all! I just want to let every one know that Jesus loves you all. So much so that he gave his life for you. We’re in the season of his return, turn to him for salvation. 1 Corinthians 15, Roman’s 5,6,10:9.
Looking forward to checking this mode out tonight. My grandfather came off a Higgins boat on Omaha Beach during the D-Day invasion. He never spoke about the details that transpired. After he passed, we found that he earned two Silver Stars and one Bronze Star during that deployment.
Thank you. Your Grandfather is a hero.
May he rest in peace.
A true American hero
Cool storybob

22:30
That exists, it's the topography mode. It's great to farm a bunch of free xp.
10:00 Stug is one of baboons
And he killed him :(
I saw that guy dancing
thats what I thought as well! he was shaking his tank and barrel!
Kudos to SKill for 19 hours session. We went to sleep and we woke up to find skill still working at 3rd marking. Insane commitment
I don't know a sane person who could do that while not streaming. Its like a job but you don't get paid
Finally, time for my first 10k game!
11:50 quite a tourist, but this tourist know how to slap back sirr
What sucks in this mode is that my allies always get killed. Even if I could survive, they just rush into the battle and die at the end.
wg will send their families a ham
same.Beside this, bots are much more smarter and they are running from my arty strike.
I just re-watched the stream-VOD skill, insanely happy you managed to squeeze the 3 mark after 18 hours.
I was tied to my screen after the airfield match - I thought it was over.
Congratulations 🎉
I just lost 3 times in a row because my allies die before I can kill the panthers lol
The famous Normandy landings without a single soldier lmao.
Did the hard diffictulty on 3rd try, game mode is not hard, but you need to learn the pattern of the battle, what enemies appear, what is their behaviour etc. It is a nice addition to the game, i remember it was some mode with berlin map many years ago similar to this.

I did 1 rigoureous, died in 1 min.
Did normal version, completed in 15 mins.
3rd rigoureous again and did it in 20 mins.
Now no more reasons to play until the next rewards get unlocked?
probably yes, no more rewards
Correct. Zero reason to replay
pretty much, "rigorous" difficulty is impossible with allied AI dying/throwing the mission
@@DouglasMeloche it's doable, but the only thing that matters if you can hit the panthers with the arty strike or not, the rest is pretty straightforward.
My father was on LST 44 on D-Day. Never said much about it but he did say it was a "Large Slow Target"
Think it would be very cool if they added the Sherman Crab to the game. Give it an alternate driving mode where the mine clearing flails are turned on.

That'd be an excellent idea. And make it a reward for a 3rd set of missions 😉
0:00 GOod morning sir, im ready lets go!
20:34 Most happy face of Skill in past years playing wot lol :D Looks like hes enjoying it :D
Congrats on hurricane marks skill! I saw the start yesterday and you did not look happy.
Had a go earlier. Enjoyed it. Proper training maps with actual bot teams would be so much more useful than the follow-my-leader maps we get atm.
i tried it 5 times in rigorous 3 times i died and 2 times my team died so i cant do it so left it... cant do it at all
I wish WG would make some rewards for playing it the second time. like credits or xp or something. it is a nice game mode and it's shame that if you play it again you wouldn't get anything, it would feel just like loosing time.
now they want us to finish this under 15mins without losing any tank... like wtf
Yes, please, I’d love to see the last 5 Hurricane battles with the Twitch chat on.
I missed the end of your marathon! I'd love to see the last few games on this channel!
Stug bot at 10:00 was baboon, he was dancing for his king lol
Can be little more chaotic. Like bullets travelling to all sides and explosions
the gun sounds amazing
Weird at the end i havce only panthers and loosing every single time. Ally bots dying instantly and im alone vs 4/5
looks like road to berlin event but with 3/4 of the good things taken away
Id love a mode that remains in the games where u need to like defend a point and u need to win against waves of enemys
An endless mode?
bad take
*This mode is OP. If you are a good player you can make 35 token every 15 mins and in 90 min you have 210 tokens. In 25 days you can complete the Battle Pass*
10:02 Stug was a Baboon !!! He was dancing :)
Every single time I do 50k dmg and lose bc my entire team rushes and suicides. Really feels like random battles, except I don't have to pay for the shells and the repair costs
Quickiebaby completed in first time. Ive tried like eight times, always die at end.
It's really easy if you go slow and play peek-a-boom
Skieeeeeel 🤭 One important thing to mention: ALL your allies MUST SURVIVE, if one dies it is game over, defeat 🙄
OK, let me see. I went exactly the same path as you did. 5 times in a row. I came to the same spot at the beach as you did, but you didn´t lost 1 single HP, and I lost 25-30% of my HPs, every time. I am talking about that first spot at the beach.
I finished the mission, but I´ve noticed this.
would have beaten this already if not for the so-called "allies" charging into kill-zones, dying immediately, failing the mission
Played it once, felt like the game is played by itself and you are just there to witness it.
Can't do it on hard mode,always ends with my allys dead and mission failed.
What beach did the Lithuanian troop help take?
Does WOT have something similar to this about the Battle of Kursk and Stalingrad, which was the turning point of WWII?
I can not see price??? shells, smoke, target marking, new tank if destroyed... Nothing is free in WOT. How much is cost of this Overlord game?
OMG I love this game modes, Road to Berlin should come back and be permanently available
must be diffrent start spot i got since 1 sec after battle start i lost 1/4 of hp, and i died before i drove 10 meters, could not even get in cover.. how it was for me each time i start on this map i restarted a few times since i lost 2 tanks before we even get to shot the bunkers and i got snipe even in cover by the bunkers, and first game i went in with only 1 life left after the bunkers, and was not enought with the panther rush on me.
So with how crappy my start was, was not a fun mode as the start just ruined in for me.
Guys, when did you noticed that map is actualy Overlord with bunkers features and different vegetation :D
I like the idea of training. I left the game for 3 years and have just now come back to it. I suck!!
Took a break from WoT for 3 years and it wasnt easy to get into it in the beginning but patience and passive aggressive gameplay works, now i played 6 years straight and i LOVE it👍

18 hours i think ur insane
is "normal" difficulty win enough to unlock the next event in this holiday progression? I don't really want to grind the "rigorous" difficulty as I am a noob and lost 2 times and not really interested to play it any more.
he got through a red line, every jeff would like to gave this tank
WOT really need more PVE modes but repeatable ones with rewards,ranks etc.
Beat the boonkers.. Skiiiieeeeellll
18:55 yes.
Yes, give us the 5 games!
Please put the last 5 games of the Hurricane on RUclips!
This gun sound is avesome
I had to play it twice only bcs all allies died somehow wtf...

Sherman Crab new premium confirmed 😅

What are the rewards?
3500 xp, 75k credits, 50 BP points and 5 dday tokens
Two more missions are coming in a week with a bit more
End game wave lags too much for me to the point of being unplayable and losing always.
Yes bring it !!!
Not professional but finished on hardest mod in 3. try :D
Acabei de jogar, infelizmente não consegui no modo difícil
Do first five battles, lol. You are usually in a better mood 😂
-Kefic_Mourn
Well it took two tries to get through it. It was ok but took too long for what you get out of it
I will just say.... its not fair as new player play the stock grind vs premium tanks or people who played a loot. and have all stuf unlocked, would be nice to see an permanent mode such as grind xp for stock tank or field mods. vs bots.
i want berlin mode
11:51
I was honestly expecting more from this event, Berlim event was way better.
Yeah, this looks much less interesting than Berlin
Bots now have good aims and using gold :-D
Shall I try war thunder?
What does PvE mean?
Player vs Enemy (bots).
Player vs Environment (you fight AI opponents), to distinguish from PvP (Player vs Player)
Skill you wouldnt buy this tank?
did over 54k dmg....
Can anyone translate the Germans in the clip?
Easy mode no issue. played the harder mode and i keep getting to the end and all the npc tanks on my team die and I lose.
Infuriating game mode, 1st one died horribly, second did better but still died at the last round as I had 14 hp left, was nearly done on the last round except it failed me because one of my allies drove into a barrage from the bnattleships. Roughly an hour of my life gone with nothing to show for it but frustration. Nice tribute WG
Wait, shouldn't the French be delivering food and running back as soon as the action is starting? This is not historically accurate at all!
from one server europe don't go screwing with those who don't want to let the server die NA
This game is just annoying, swarms of enemies with pinpoint accuracy, panthera are crazy strong. It just is a mindless click fest.
this is the worst mode ever i can't finish any missions LMAO. they really did a poor job. my best time was 16:33 minute. so close but still so far and i went fast. the thing is when a TD decides to camp you and you tryna save HP to finish with 1 life you just have to use the arty strike on him to kill him so you can come in range of bunker... also these panthers are way too fast and unpredictable to be able to kill with arty strike. i cba to spend more time on this crappy mode.
This mode is funny the first and the second time, then becomes boring shit. It perflectly encapsulate what WG does: short therm fun, long term shit.
Literally every PVE is that. You can't program smart, random bots and objectives so PVE gets boring fast.
.........last phanter and ammo rack ......skill is your dad at work again ^^?
this gamemode is so boring. I like that WG did an event without shameless selling of lootboxes. But, god damn it's boring
I think this is really cool but. Unfortunate it’s a one time play if you beat it.
not true first play with win you get bonus loot after that just credit farming and tokens to spend on this months event... play it on repeat and in 6 days the 2nd and 3rd missions open up.
I think this event is so Bad . I would like play rankeds games tier 10 i'm wot, 7vs7 , or 15vs15, all days.
But wg loves put randomly this shit ... Lmao .
I like a Lot tour videos skill
Wahhh
Good game mode but two battles and all done so kinda meh
😅
AI is so bad in this game mode, that it's just frustrating to play.
I gave up after the first try, as all my "allies" died in just 5 seconds by rushing into the last enemy wave.
Rewards are garbage anyway. Bring back Road to Berlin, at least it was fun.
Jesses
Yes, a big disappointment, we were counting on a next missions follow-up, further stages, and here a surprise from WG 💩
Baboon!!
