World of Tanks Blitz

Update 3.8 breaks the game with stupid changes, takes away things people grinded for for hours or paid for with real money, while making it so that you have to pay AGAIN to get at least some stuff back or grind for for years - literally. You got a couple tier 10 tanks, some premiums, a bunch of keepers from every tier? Good luck reequipping them - it will only take you TEN TO FIFTY YEARS if you dont play the fking r*rded missions. If you do play the missions, it will take you 1 to 5 years. Great change. Simply wonderful.

So the game is fun to a point. The tier system ranks player rating so if your a good player you quickly find yourself not being able to find a match on tanks under tier V. At tier V the price and cost of research quickly kicks in and becomes super grindy. To keep moving along you find staying with the 1 nation you are the meta for certain tiers.

so annoying when your tier V tank is high in the ranking and your player rating goes up and then your fighting in games vs 1 or 2 tier higher tanks. which then creates super bad mis matches.

An unbalanced, Pay to win dying game.

This game has seen much better days. Back in the day there were no Tankoins, no containers of any sort and it was much better balanced. This has been the childhood game for a lot of people and seeing it now, comparing to what it used to be, is just sad. They introduced a lot of P2W features, such as previously mentioned Tankoins, skins, containers, etc. On the phone version of the game each time you open it you are blasted with “special offers” that cost a fuck ton of money for what they have in them, and you will get these notifications on your screen everytime you enter the main menu, whether it would be from your garage, or by leaving a battle. The new weapons suck, most of the new gamemodes are shit, and the overall quality of the game has gone down. The community mostly consists of toxic children that divide into 2 types, either P2W or trash mobile players.

This game is pay to win and here are some examples why.

-Premium membership, which gives 1.5x exp and 2x in game currency

-You can get weapons of the next modification if you use micro upgrades ages before you can directly buy it in game, which are very costly for the according rank and you can be dominating in battle.

-Supplies are absolutely overpowered (double damage, double armour) and once again these are very costly to use on a regular basis (practically impossible for a normal user to use them constantly even for high rank players its very hard to do that)

World of Tanks

Okay, lets start with: Lot’s of good AND bad. The good? A well and long developed game with plenty of content and tons of tanks to play. A good selection of maps and plenty of nations to try out. Lots of freebies (PR’s ((personal reserves)) and even event tanks, camo and decals, etc.).

The BAD, oh the BAD… Okay, let me start off with this: I have been playing this game since release, 2011. I wasn’t part of beta, I waited till full release. I hate betas, too much changes in a full release from the testing phase. This game, as it is now, isn’t the game I started playing back then, Period. They have changed every aspect of the game many times over since then. You see, Gold tanks, now called Premium Tanks, were sub-par to the Tech Tree tanks. Which means they were WORSE than the regular tank of the same tier and same nation. Gold tanks were to train crews and make you a few extra credits (Silver) doing it, period, that’s it. They gave you NO advantage other than that. Now…now the Premium Tanks rule, extra armor, better this, better that, you name it. So now if you don’t buy the newest OP (Over Powered) Premium Tank, you are going to suffer vs them. Sound fair? Okay, that’s just the tanks. Ammo… when I started Gold Ammo (now Premium Ammo) cost real money, like real $$$. So it wasn’t thrown around often, very very rare was the person that used the Gold Ammo constantly. So in ten matches you might run into two of them that someone was slinging Gold. Then came the change, you can now buy Gold Ammo with Silver! (the normal in-game money). Now of course the Premium Ammo (Gold Ammo) cost more than normal ammo, but hey, everyone can use it now… So suddenly armor meant nothing. You could have the best armored tank on the game (back then a KV-5) but now EVERYONE is slinging Premium Ammo like no tomorrow so armor suddenly means zip (BTW, the KV-5 had some GREAT armor, but the gun was the worst of the tier 8’s in the game of any nation and would only pen the weakest of spots on any enemy tank). Now my biggest gripe, MM. (Match Making) Has changed many times over the years, and not once, ever… for the better. The whole concept of a three tier match (your tier plus 1-2 tiers above or below you) is so out of date with the newer OP tanks it isn’t funny. Just as a one off example (and there are PLENTY more) you are in your new shiny Tiger I, a tier 7 tank, near as you can get to what the Germans had as a best tank for WWII (not to mention the lesser used King Tiger, etc.) and you hit that big red “Battle” button. In your mind you are thinking “I finally got some real armor!” and the battle starts. Guess what… on that other team you are seeing tanks that were pure fantasy or didn’t even come out till the 1960’s to 1980’s (Tier 9’s). Really? A 1940’s tank is supposed to fight a 1980' tank? Guess what, it goes very poorly for the much much older tank. Sound fair? So MM has been broken from almost the start, it just has gotten more so over the years. The problem with MM isn’t just that, it also is with how often it seems to place you at the bottom as well, in 10 games you are for sure going to see at least 6-8 of them at the bottom tier. Over time that wears on you. Hard. Next is the Cars (Armored Cars). In real life the armored cars ran away from the tanks in a battle as fast as they could because a single shot would end their life. A single shot, period. Not here, you can hit a Car with a 12.8 cm gun (128 mm) full on and get that fateful message “We didn’t even scratch him!” or worse, “Critical Hit!” yet he takes no damage and just keeps driving like nothing ever touched him. And just for fun the auto-aim on the cars hits you no matter what the car is doing, turning, flying (jumping), etc. Sound fair?

I’ve been playing since Closed Beta back in 2011, and still play daily outside of Steam, so don’t let these steam hours fool you.

As you can clearly see from all the other negative reviews, each of them basically say the same thing because it’s just flat out fact, instead of opinion. There’s a very big fundamental problem with this game but it will not change because we are nobody to them. The only way to have a drastic change, in a game as big and successful as this, would be to not spend any more money ever until they make the necessary changes. Unfortunately, this will never happen because not everyone has the same opinions/thoughts/preferences/etc. There’s only one thing you can do. Play the game, or find another.

I really had high hopes for this game, not because I thought it was better than World of Tanks or War Thunder, but because it had a mode that those other two games does not, that is, PvE. When you grow tired of the 15 vs. 15 idiot-fest that the other games become, you can play Armored Warfare and fight computer controlled opponents. Sure, you still have to deal with 4 other humans, but usually one or two of them go link-dead during the battle or stay along the edge of the map and out of your way.

A good idea run into the ground by greed, incompetence, and toxicity.

This game was originally made by Obsidian and despite meddling by My.com to make it more like World of Gold Shells, a lot of the old Obsidian magic still does shine through in the PVE content.

Unfortunately, this game is currently in the hands of My.games which is an incredibly cynical, lazy, and just generally unethical company.

Pay-to-Win Matchmaking

In addition to the usual pay-to-win upgrades and OP premium weapons which exist in many such “live-service” games, the devs now even sell pay-to-win matchmaking to “allow for more comfortable gameplay” for people who use premium currency to purchase “Battle Hardened status” for their vehicles.

I tried to play this game and it has some problems but until today it was somehow actually working and what it looks like is pretty much easy that the controls weren’t difficult and the tutorial that I’m doing is simple I’m glad the quality is in good shape and perfect.

not bad but typical exdevs game, maybe one day they will add some kind of progression/story mode in one of their titles.

1. The pictures and the videos do not show the actual gameplay

2. Only one map available = boring after a while

3. Never working - more off than online - can*t get a match

4. Ususally at least 5 out of 7 days broken - if not more

So lets put this together - WYSIWYG does not apply here - you get lured into something completely different. There is no support at all from devs, they just ignore the issues it seems. Apparently the chinese version is far more advanced but not accessible from outside China. They cannot solve the issue which keeps knocking the game or map server out so you cannot play.

Don’t expect much and it’s ok. It is FTP and even if you spend money, it’s not a huge advantage from what I have seen so far. I have seen some gold ammo that has the same effect as silver ammo, why buy it. It run’s laggy and seems buggy. Some parts are hard to figure out due to bad english, no english or just chopped off thoughts. The helos are a cool touch and can be game changers. Arty are way under powered. Seems they were trying to steal a hybrid from AW and WoT. To be fair this game can be really good, if managed right.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worst, they did it again. Today (7-16-18), they doubled the upgrade time and increased the cost to upgrade (it looks like double, too). Examples: the autoloader on the T-64BV, over 2.4 million and more than 1 day’s (24 hours) time (and that’s not the final upgrade), the Leclerc (a paid tank to start with but you can “play” for the BlackEagle) - over 3 million for armor and more than 1 day’s time. Just numbers? Ok, compare that to me buying the Leopard 1A3 in 1 day (playing) for 620,000, and calculate 3 times the cost - around 1.86 million for a fully upgraded tank; however, the next tank I’m targeting is the Leopard 2 Revolution (the highest in NATO), and wouldn’t you know it - it’s on sale! (Today) So, for just 13,725,000 - it’s yours…but wait, what about the math? I don’t know because I have not started but start calculating 13.7 * 6, yes, 6 at least…6, for 82.2 million. I started with 43 million on the two mentioned above and have played to make 9 million during the upgrading period (more than a week’s time) and I still have not finished and that’s before the now mentioned “changes”. They (the developers) did not post any advanced notice of this “now in affect” changes. My personal note: this is just the latest of “changes” to take place in the short time that I’ve been with the game but if I find another “tank game” that gives me modern fast tanks (and I’m looking…like today); I’ll delete this game in a heartbeat. I hate what the game has become (pay to win) but it’s the action and the players that make me sign in again (for now).

DEFEATED! You’ll see that a lot if you waste your time with this vanity project. This game is a prime example of PAY to WIN. Free players only exist to give paying players something to shoot at. No combination of skill and perseverance can overcome the enormous advantages paid players have. Paid players do TWICE the damage, can heal their tanks and set enemy tanks on fire or immobilize them. The game itself also has multiple flaws the developers don’t worry about.

Game physics are like a cartoon - enemy tanks will literally do back flips rather than be pinned. Friendly tanks are a different matter. The idiot on your team who thinks the best place on the map to play from is up your butt will block you from retreating from enemy fire resulting in needless damage or death.

The game was fun at the beginning, but ever since the devs started to open more and more servers. The game keeps crashing on everything and nothing.

There are certain actions that are known that cause a crash (like clicking a certain button, so you can avoid it). But it crashes in loading screens or while you do nothing. Like i had it running and was talking in steam chat and see the game crash in the background!

While the crashes are highly anoying, it isnt the worst. Like i said when they started to open more and more servers it became way worse and the devs just keep adding more.
