World of Tanks

the best part in my humble opinion: standing with my Pz 38t between KV and JS and Kingtigers and greet them with:
'I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE!'

Nice. I hope they fled in terror.

it's more about impressing the big posers on my own team.
you know what they say about big tanks and penis size?

OK, I keep going to the web site and wondering if or not I should give it a bash. How good is it guys?

@ Keunert - LOL.

Bob, it's great.

Although it's "free to play" it's better called "freemium." Meaning you can pay money to get extras and move up faster.

Don't expect a hard-core tank sim. It's more like an FPS with tanks. In a good way. I would highly recommend giving it a go then coming back tomorrow and asking questions.

I played the heck out of it, albeit with a press account. So I'm not well versed on which upgrades to take next. I had effectively infinite gold and XP so I just built whatever tank I wanted and rolled around in it. I can give some tips on general gameplay. Just don't ask me which chassis is better for X tank.

Thanks LB, I may well try getting it downloaded in time for the Easter Holidays and have a pootle around.

(Thinks - is pootle appropriate for tanks?..... Nah!)

By all means - when you have a IS-7 you can pootle wherever you desire.

Nefaro · March 31, 2012, 03:32:36 PM

I'm convinced that I killed the Matchmaker's family in a past life. >:(

Keunert · March 31, 2012, 03:38:41 PM

you're driving a pz 35t too?

Steelgrave · March 31, 2012, 05:22:32 PM

I played the heck out of it for six months or so, wrote the first published review of it, and loved it up to the point to where suddenly.....I didn't. Have to say that I'm thinking of firing it up again though. It's weird to say that you miss a game....but I kinda miss it, lol!
