terrible game... dont play it if youre curious about it, the devs treat their playerbase like they are atm machines, brainless and ignored until they want your money, the game is horriblky unbalanced toward players that pay for premium stuff, the tanks are all supposedly "balanced" but all the german tanks are broken because one of the devs and i quote them almost word for word "do not want to have the germans be powerful because i have lost an ancestor during the great wars" russian tanks are horribly overpowered at higher tiers compared to the other tanks, they look weaker on paper but they take way more hits and start of fire/take penetrating hits far less due to half of their faster tanks having the important hitboxes sunk underground where they cant be hit the list goes on and on

This gave me a good laugh, +1.

I play World of Tanks, fun game, still for some reason addicted to it too.

Yahda Yahda Yahda Don't pay him any mind, or anyone else for that matter,
Just go try it yourself and make up your own mind!!
I have over 11,880 battles and I have yet to pay for ANYTHING ever!!
wargaming.net gives away a Lot of stuff every few days, Here's just a few;

extra XP up to 5x normal on 1st victory of day per tank.
Half price Tanks, Premium account, crew training, cost of gold, gold rounds,
repair kits, 1st Aid packs, even Premium tanks (cost real money to get).
Hanger slots etc. Give it a try, you may like it.

Play it too, currently 7k games, also have won lots of gold in some contests, so i got my Type 59 for half money. dont have to use premium since that.
Also people saying the premium tanks are overpowered are the ones who have no idea how to aim.

It seems that Wargames ignores their player base, but sometimes they do stuff players want. And then many players complain again because they dont like it. I am curious if that behavior starts here someday too. Hope not though.

Their beloved soviet tanks are overpovered? Yes they are, as long as you don't sit in them.
German tanks are all too weak? Why do they have most of the time better win-rates than overpovered soviets? We could now start arguments about statistics and their value...

I play it and i like it. Well, as long as here is nothing "open". We'll see afterwards what's happening.

+6.3k battles in WoT. Played since open beta (although on another account) and it was actually the first Free to Play game i actually bought stuff for because i really enjoyed it. A lot of action and mechanics that are easy to grasp. Great for people like me who have very little weekend time off to play and just want to get into the war without too much non battle grinding. (like travelling or questing or whatever) Also WoT devs continuously updates the game with new tanks and maps and recently even game modes and because of this continuous support, the game looks a whole lot better than what we had in beta and may even get better in the future (new engine and physics in an upcoming patch).

I really like the fact that it is not "Pay to Win" and even spending money on "premium" tanks (some are actually easier targets lol) and on "gold" ammo (which btw is ridiculously expensive to use in public games and is often used only in clan wars with clan won "gold") will not automatically make the player an OP killing machine.

It looks to me like MWO is shaping up to be the a similar experience with a lot more customization on your war machine which can lead to more interesting matches overall. If this keeps up, MWO will be my new go to online game for the weekends (replacing WoT) and I will gladly support it.

I love the constant changes they do in WoT. I really cant wait for the next patch :lol:

physics: no longer getting stuck in rocks... <_<
new render: better graphics and (i still believe its bullcrap...) more FPS...
mooooaaarrr tanks :lol: but no britt ones yet... :mellow: except if you buy with gold.
the camo paints will be efficient in battle...
and we can now add emblems and tags on the tanks :D Im really looking forward for this one.

There is only one thing that bothers me... they are going to ruin my PzIV... seriously... what is their problem with German tanks?

kopfsammler the new pz4, is nice, turret turns faster than the old one, and the gun is good enough for the enemies you face with it, not to forget that it looks better.

oh and i can confirm the fps boost.

I play WoT and sometimes I really hate it. It's full of bugs and other problems. MM is weird sometimes.

Solid enough game. Russian Bias and German hate made me quit. KTs, Tigers and Panthers are horrible in that game.
