Played it, it was ok for a while until I found out it was a "pay to win" game <caugh>gold ammo</caugh>.
It's really annoying to get a huge direct disadvantage only because someone bought straight up upgrades that you can never get for free, no matter the amount of skill you have.
Got immediately uninstalled, I despise p2w games.

guess what my name is there;)

It's still fun to play.:) I don't buy anything for it though. Although, they don't explain that you can use convert experience at times without exchanging it for gold ($). Here's a link:

My old clan was massively into it last year or so, a select group participated in a tourney and I think they got to go to Russia for the finals

My thoughts on the game were mostly "Meh"

That's why I like it; it's Unreal.;) Now if they could just make it so you can't hurt your teammates and get rid of the draw battles, then it would be perfect.:)

Eh, I stick to Darkest Hour. Its a Western front mod for Red Orchestra that has much improved on the tank code and has realistic penetration values and actual teamwork.

right now I only have light tanks, so I can get slaughtered at times from nowhere but I can also get my licks on. I did almost knock over a tank the other night flying down and hill and almost flipped him over into the water......that was fun!;)

...and make it so you don't start all over with a capture just because you get hit in the circle....that's pretty ridiculous....I mean, you're still in the circle and alive!:eek:

...and why does my team seem to lose more than win....I almost always seem to be on the losing team for some odd reason (although I did win 6 in a row once).

I played that for a couple of weeks and I stopped because the grind for better tank tiers gets pretty bad (there are ways to accelerate that if you pay money). Also the balancing is utterly horrible. I had gaming sessions where I fought tanks 4 tiers above me almost all the time. No way to do jackshit if you don't even scratch them and they one-hit you all the time.

back when i originally played the last few tiers of light tanks ended up in games with a lot of higher tied tanks. It seems they dropped this.
The bt2 is also still one of the most fun tanks to play with...

I don't know about now but I stopped playing not long after they introduced the British tanks and it was a problem then.
