I used to love this game, if my hours played doesn't show it
but after a while, i started seeing more and more and more flaws in the game and, really, the developers as a whole
I still play it from time to time but im really just fed up with the game

The big and obvious issues
-massive late-tier grind, can take dozens of hours of gameplay or more to get 1 vehicle even with premium at times
-despite the game being "fully released" Gaijin is still experimenting with its already dwindling playerbase compared to the start of the game
-also despite its "finished" state, its really quite buggy with the ballistics and just absolute blunders in terms of additions to the game including many balance issues for many vehicles *cough*VFW*cough*nohullbreak*cough*
-Gaijin is becoming more and more and more greedy, constantly adding more premiums/high tier vehicles and such
-Gaijin has pretty much forgotten lower tiers, air games in general, and really only cares about high tier tanks
-Ships seem to be in very early stages atm, could improve with time
-Battle Rating system is pretty broken if I'm going to be honest, always seeing "fixes" which either get reverted or make things worse (most of the time, there are still ok decisions made here)
-sinking money into the game after tier 4 or so is the only real way of getting vehicles somewhat fast

theres many other issues but those are the things i can think of


although its not all bad
-the community is more often than not ok at the least, lots of friendly people, but still, toxicity exists
-first 100 or so hours are nice and fun, tiers 1-3 or so is what I'd say is peak WT

those are the big 2 positives that I can think of atm


so if you want to sink some time in this game, go ahead, I'm not stopping you, but if you get hooked by this game, just remember this review as a word of caution
