Armored Warfare removed artillery so they can frick off.
>Armored Warfare removed artillery
Based. Maybe I'll give their game a try.
it wasnt world of tanks, artillery (as far as i can remember because it was a long time ago now) was well balanced and could also play to counter enemy arty and not in a moronic guessing way like wot
it makes their decision to remove artillery moronic
^this
AW artillery managed to not be cancer. Shooting allowed enemy artillery to spot them on the map and non artillery received a warning when artillery shot at them. There were also smoke and illumination rounds to hide or spot for teammates respectively
war thunder
WoT for me, though I haven't tried armored warfare. Is it any good?
well it used to be, it was shaping up to basically be world of tanks but actually good and fun but obsidian, that obsidian entertainment, stopped developing it and left it to some random F2P company shitheads who squandered all potential. really sad story because it was actually a possible wot-killer until, just like steam competitors, they killed themselves while the original just stands there watching.
I fricking despise war thunder with every fiber of my being, and even I know it's an infinitely better game than world of anything
>it's an infinitely better game than world of anything
That's where you're wrong.
>removed citadels on DDs
>removed RTS CVs
>added subs
Yeah, no.
>Armored Warfare
That game doesn't exist anymore, it's only a misshapen golem wearing its skin and masquerading as it.
God I miss it.
WoWS has gone to shit years ago anon.
>WoWS has gone to shit years ago anon.
true, but at least it has more than 40 players
Tanki Online. :^)
>it's real
And it was even actually fun back in the old days.
moon silence, home
I remember how good it felt to climb on that building on the right. Good times.
Unfortunately I was shit at parkour but watching other people succeed in their shenanigans was fun
I also remember how unironically OP and fun the Smoky was because of that moronic crit, giving even the M1 a higher DPS than the M2 Railgun (most of the times)
WT for me even with its many many flaws
I stop playing because of CAS. The higher BR I go, the worse it get.
That's because you're not actually meant to play at high BR, which just exists as autism containment. Besides, slaughtering hordes of CAS in a fighter to protect your team is the most fun you can have in WT.
Correct, Higher BR is such a slop I cannot go above 7.7, once you realize that the fun is at the lower br you can start to enjoy the game, also frick whoever decided the the fox was to sit a 7.0
The BR compression ruined even that BR. Suddenly everything gets access to HEAT and early ATGM who give zero fricks about your state of the art cast armor.
>just spend the entire match looking at the sky waiting for enemies to arrive
You know AA exists, right?
Yes, but I prefer prefer playing tanks and fight other tanks and not anti-air vehicles trying to shoot down planes.
War Thunder
War Thunder is a fricking pain
star conflict
nay, mechwarrior online
i did try armored warfare for a little bit.
NordVPN for me, thx
All are shit
its pretty easy to shit on world of tanks, but still i don't understand how people are still playing it
It offer arcade gameplay as opposed to semi-realistic of War Thunder.
It's like Counter Strike 1.6 compared to Red Orchestra.
Sunk cost and the lack of CAS.
Seriously the CAS is a deal breaker for many people and the shill response is - hurr jusg play SPAA. What if I want to play a tank and my team lacks good SPAA players?
>what if I don't want to play a team friendly role and want to camp like a moron all match
then you lose, like every other german tree player
CAS is cancer at times ngl, but why having cas is bad but artillery is acceptable ?
there's a few reasons, as someone who's put hundreds of hours into both games:
1. CAS can easily kill you but artillery would have to get extremely lucky whilst you play a tank with no armour, or would have to spend literally half the match hitting you if you have any armour which is 85% of tanks in a match but at that point you're just asking for it and it's your fault
2. you cant hide from CAS, artillery in WOT is basically stuck into one side of the map with maybe some deviations IF the map is big enough so it's predictable but planes can obviously just fly around that hurdle. obviously there's maps with no cover and that's a problem of its own but on city maps, artillery is pretty much a wasted team slot. literally nobody would say a pe-8 on berlin is a waste of time.
3. unlike artillery, you cannot kill CAS unless you're in an SPAA, which means you're in a vehicle dedicated to killing planes and is heavily limited in terms of tank-on-tank performance, or if you have a pintle machine gun which is at least a 50 cal because anything else is typically a single 7.92mm and you're not killing shit with that, but machine guns also become useless thanks to planes with orbital laser bombs
4. design-wise CAS should have been limited by spawn points but in game, it's incredibly easy for people to just get enough points in tanks by rushing captures then J-out, grab a plane and start racking the points back up, which leads into number 5:
5. there are no limits on the number of CAS in a match, it is completely possible for both teams to be filled with people playing ARB in a fricking GRB match, the people playing tanks effectively being AI-controlled ground targets for them to farm. artillery in world of tanks is limited to 3 per team and it's now quite rare for that to happen in tiers higher than 6.
goes without saying both are bad for their games but artillery is mostly really annoying and rarely game-ruining (aside from Lefh), CAS absolutely can ruin games.
War Thunder is a plane game where the ground targets get mad at you for dabbing on them, and the sooner you come to terms with that, the better for your sanity.
The one where you don't support Russian devs by playing.
WoT had golden shells which is lmao.
War Thunder needed a massive backlash and review bomb to fix their stupid fricking repair costs and their spaghetti code breaks every update and bug fixes get undone
I just want ONE fricking game that combines the aspects of air, tank, and ground combat into a single game that is based on modern armor and weapons. Basically non sci fi Planetside 2. It's a niche that desperately needs to be filled but nobody wants to do it because the devs that can are too busy working on battle royale trash.
>I just want ONE fricking game that combines the aspects of air, tank
You think you want that, but you really don't.
>11Gs
damn son
Arma 3
Isn't battlefield exactly that. Planetside 2 but not scifi.
War Thunder.
Neither all of them are shit
Try Crossout, better than every of them despite being p2w shit.
>World of Tanks
>if you dont but premium game will pick low skilled players in your team
>mfw last year deleted account that was created in 2011
I wish I had a game like Warthunder, but alt-history or science fiction, so it wasn't this bizarre yet soulless experience of random real vehicles doing battle for no reason. There could be fun vehicles then, or even have a part list instead of a vehicle tree.
I want Chromehounds 2.
i always thought this would be a cool idea too. somewhat realistic damage modelling like warthunder but with fictional tanks, like shit from command and conquer
>I wish I had a game like Warthunder, but alt-history or science fiction
So... regular War Thunder?
Mechwarrior Online or any other mech game for singleplayer
I detest WoT and gaygaming for having ruined what was a relatively fun game for profits over the years and swear I'll never touch again, but I'm glad I never got into the abomination WT is, because at least with the former you know it's a clown show and nobody pretends otherwise.
>playing any F2P Gachaslop
Thank God I grew out of that.
>World of Russian Tanks
Not that one.
The game has always had an extremely wrong bias for Russonybro tanks, but the balancing is complete garbage these days. Not to mention the gold ammo bullshit.
>Russonybro
Fricking god damn filters.
RUSSO-Black person
russony isnt that far off either to be fair kek
Proof that ukraine and russia are basically the same
I prefer the way WT looks. I just wish they would make a separate queue for the low quality homosexuals. I want the game to look good.
WoT and WT have both been ruined by the Soviet union paper tanks.
>No this 152mm heavy tank with 400mm armor and 50kmh road speed was totally real!
>when stuff like IS-4 already had trouble with armor cracking and suspension shitting itself from the weight
They're all dogshit.
But in war thunder, the tank used as comparison costs a real life $2,000.
So I know which one is the worst.
>WoT
>Arty is cancer, help me devs!
>Lower dmg to moronic levels and introduce stun mechanic
LOL
>CAS bad
>arty bad
You don't know the true suffering.
>play wot with my tier 6 HT
>meet BZ176 in battle
>I get one shoted before even managing to shoot a single shot
>DAMN THAT WAS VERY FUN FOR ME!! LETS GO AGAIN!
I do not know about the others, but I would suggest staying away from WOT. most of the games are 15/1 3 minute battles, armor is irrelevant since everyone spams gold and the company delivers more lootboxes rather than actual useful features/balance. I think most of people still playing it because they invested a lot of money in the past and just can't give up because of this. unfortunately im one of those too.
>bottom tier HT, in one of the worst MM groups (VI vs VIII)
Did you have any hopes in that game in the first place? I hate how wot is just roflstomps nowadays. Doesn't help those morons keep powercreeping with insane alpha guns. I have no idea how people can continue playing it after all the changes since around 2.0 at the very least.
>Did you have any hopes in that game in the first place?
you can meet tanks like pershing which you can trade some shots at least, but when meeting BZ, it is nearly impossible to do anything. you are just free damage for it. The tank is totally broken and this will not change because it is a paid tank.
All the tank nuts I know have moved on to War Thunder. Make of that what you will.
Same here but only the low functioning autists keep playing it. The high functioning ones realised how shit the game is.
It's not even realistic, it just keeps this facade of realism to buff machines that make the devs the most money.
I miss Steel Ocean
Isnt this all pay to win garbage? That is your basically an npc for whales to humiliate until you shell over money.
Yes, military simulations in general are either pay 2 win or just games that are more DLC than actual game, like the game devs put so much focus in making realistic vehicles and then the gameplay is just some pointless sandbox shit with an AI that is probably not existent or dumb as rocks.
wt
And now post the version where the commander MG eats the round.
Sturmtiger looks fun. Shame it can't be balance in WoT.
I have this.
it really is
It hit the helmet, skill issue
War Thunder if you want to play tanks and planes, World of Warships if you want to play naval. Simple as.
Battlestations: Midway if you want to play ships and planes.
IL2 Sturmovik if you want to play planes and tanks.
war thunder
World of tanks in maintenance mode already.
Wargaming making a new game. Competitive hero-based tank shooter called cold war.
They're fricked.
that one tank browser game some anon made then never posted again
I just want a single-player focused WT or WoT, is that too much to ask?
So do I, but there simply isn't the money in it compared to the current business model. Best you can hope for is that GHPC implements a good campaign.
I would even take either WT or WoT private/emulated servers with bots with adjustable rates
Yeah too bad GHPC is about modern machines while WT and WoT are all about WW2.
What are you grinding towards? The post-ww2 stuff they shoehorned in is designed to be as unfun as possible.
Not exactly the same but take a look at Easy Red 2
Try this. It's a PS2 game.
WT private servers when
>world of jank
total dogshit
>armored warfare
never played
>war thunder
very grindy, but objectively better in terms of actual gameplay that world of jank.
War Thunder and it's so not even close it's not even funny, and that's a bad thing.
I remember when the Type 59 first was introduced in WoT and it got matched, among others, with tanks that could not pen it from any angle.
>spawn
>drive for several minutes to the frontlines
>get sniped by someone hiding in a bush across the map
Fun games.
WoT streamlines the gameplay by making the maps smaller so you can get shot faster and adding bullshit camo mechanics so the invisible tank shooting you can be just 50 meters away.
>F2P
All of them are fricking cancer.
Thoughts on gunner heat pc and steel beasts? They look fun but im not sure they would be as much fun to play
They are just skirmish simulators, there are no structured campaigns or anything like that, if you want something with modern tanks that feels like an actual videogame try SABOW
Neither.
There was a time where WoT could say it was a proper rival to WT (for whatever good that was). Nowadays it's fricking sad.
>There was a time where WoT could say it was a proper rival to WT
you got that the other way around and that was the case only when WT tanks were in beta and had absolutely fricked physics.
WoT
Its an easy choice if you want to have fun and enjoy playing with tanks against other tanks (and occasional wheeled vehicle and spg).
