I finished the Winter Games Op and the "making a point" op is still on

If I now reach 25k xp there is no more reward, is that correct WG ?

Yes

You are getting x2 on all tanks you play?  Every game, not just the daily.

What these guys said. I know WG don't like to mention other games but this is an example.

 

Call of Duty when Double XP Weekends are Live, You get TWICE the Experience every battle you play. I'm not sure if WG has ever done this before but it's something i've been after for a long time. Rather than X3 or X5 which is nice but only counts on First Win, i'd love X2 for Every Battle some Weekends like COD does. And now thanks to this Op, it is a reality, Earlier you finish the Op, the more Double XP you have until Feb 1st. I assume it will stack with XP Boosts, Premium Time and Daily Doubles so can use it to go up Tech Trees faster which is amazing as it's not just for the Weekend.

Yes, I get 2x, thats not the point.

But why the making a point op is still on ?

Gold Ops can't be removed or unchecked, however it has no benefit once you complete the Op. Have to pretend it isn't there.

that's some serious going in less than 6 days, and the 2 Xp and bost Free Xp a little to boot, in every game ,and  since the new French line will be released very soon will come in very handy indeed 

 

I am on stage 27 so not to far behind 130 points to go

Nice and yeah grats to OP, that's like 75 points a day or something. I'm on around 300 points on Main, Only on Day Two on Alt but will unlock the SU-100 shortly.

[Proper Villain]

Disregard this. Won't let me cancel out.

I see two options here, but knowing WOT there is another one that is not apparent.

 

1. As MASHMAN 90 noted, "Making a Point' is of no value till the next phase.

2. The one I prefer. This is the first phase of a three phase campaign and the points you earn now carry over into the next phase, thus you have to do less work in the next phase. By extension, the points from the second phase would carry over into the third phase. Thus, when you earn all of the points to complete all stages of all phases will the points then be irrelevant. However the extra points could carry over from one campaign to the next but I seriously doubt that will happen. We really won't know the answer to this unless WOT makes a posting before the end of the phase, or we find out by default on the first day of the second phase.

I would not get your hopes up for the 2nd option but hay stranger things have happened

I am half way through #27...

You guys are nuts, I thought I was getting through them quickly but I'm only on the 19th stage. How many hours a day are you playing?

I typically get in 3-4 hours most evenings, sometimes a bit less. Left off last night about 6 points from finishing stage 27 so the end is very near.

Did you do the Absolution op? Exactly the same.

That op was 7 weeks long. I cleared it in around 2 to 3 weeks then got to watch many hundreds more points disappear into the void. 

It was made worse by the final stage op encouraging you to keep grinding points to earn more rewards, totally false.

Add another nut to the bowl. 500 points. 

[markyjmeech]

Finished a few hours ago , and enjoying the x 2 Xp added together with my x3 Xp boosts the AMX M4 51 coming along nicely.

 

Just noticed the participation medal isn't showing in stats page, prob will add it in next page update.

 

[panthermark]

Yeah, finished early.  I thought I would be stuck on about 496 after today....and would not be able to finish until I got back from vacation.  But I must have picked up just enough first win bonus points to finish today.    

[bigpikle]

Done. Now x2 till the end of the month. It would have been nice  if we were able to get at least part of the points we are earning after the 500 limit credited to the winter beta op. Even if it is 5% towards the next op... The rest of the rewards will have to do. Thanks WG
