LWA wins and perk points
« on: January 08, 2013, 06:14:22 PM »
I just found out a couple of days ago that there is significant points awarded to the side that wins in the main arenas. I am on the Knight side and have been since mid-June last year. In that almost 7 months I have never seen a Knight win. I'm told that yesterday the Knights actually won a map. I am also told that the requirement for the "win" perk points is that you have to be in the game on the winning side during the last 12 hours before the win.

I would like to know where I can find out which side won the map and when. I have been in the LWA almost every day for the last 2 months. Including New Years day, Christmas morning and Thanksgiving. We get one win in all that time (as far as I know) and I miss the 12 hour requirement? I'm trying to figure out which 12 hour period I was not in the LWA in the last 2 days. My wife now makes comments about my game playing around our friends and family. That's how much I have been in it. Well I did go to our best friends house to watch the National championship last night. But that didn't take 12 hours..............

There is no way to look up who won how many wars and when.

The requirements for winning war perks are currently
- having been on this country for at least 12 hours prior to the win AND
- being online the moment the war is won.

Now the latter one was never a requirement until recently. You didn't have to be online in the past. As I never saw any notice about a change, it might be a bug rather than a feature.

That being said, the Knights do win their share of maps, just somewhat less often. But it's the same on all countries: Once a country doesn't get two victories in a row, the consensus on country channel seems to be that "*we* never win a map" ;)

Also keep in mind that, unless it has been changed, it is only 20 perk points in each category.  Fly a Bf109F-4 and shoot down a P-51D and you've earned almost 1/3rd of the fighter perks you'd earn from winning the war.
