World of Tanks - Reviews and experiences

Mid-move my account got blocked and I panicked — needed this for my bad back, couldn’t lift boxes. Customer service was slow to start but then actually helpful and patient, sorted the access and delivery arrived a day late but careful. Was skeptical, ended up relieved and a bit amused.

Not worth my time anymore — used to be fun, other devs did better

Tried it last week, felt clunky at start, decent

Skip it. I'm glad I uninstalled after ten years. Pay-to-win, clunky. I’ve seen worse from other firms, but this felt right honestly.

Honestly, it's downhill — pay-to-win is real now. I first saw the mess on a buddy's stream; teams and tanks feel mismatched, yet it still entertains.

On the bus I almost cancelled the order. Used it evenings at home. Still pay-to-win, ugh — my doubts were right, pretty annoyed.

Halfway through unboxing, after long wait I called support — they answered quick. Started using it that night; first impression solid, glad delivery and service held up.

I get into it every night after work, quick download and support answered fast. Really fun, runs smooth on my phone, but matchmaking is shaky and microtransactions bug me a bit.

Honestly, I'd still recommend it for quick, messy fun — I first saw it on a Twitch stream and even nudged a buddy to try it. It has pay-to-win bits and noobs, sure, but I keep coming back anyway.

Saw this match on Reddit and messaged my buddy. My light spotter had eight battles and I stared at stats. Opponent had like 36,000 and crazy WTR. Kinda funny, mostly frustrating. Not balanced, not fair, eh.

Honestly, I liked it more than expected. I tried it last week, and at first I thought it might be a cash grab, but after a couple rounds it clicked — clever, fair, actually fun. Surprised, honestly.

Mid-battle, I almost refunded — lag and weird returns made me doubt. Used it nightly for work breaks; after a week it smoothed out and I’m actually enjoying it now.

I grabbed it kind of skeptical — thought it'd be another flashy dud. Turns out I was wrong. I play after work, sometimes with my dad on weekends, and it fits right into our routine. Still simple. It even beat other shooters for me. Glad I tried it, really.

I’ll be honest, I almost quit after the big update, but the moment I queued and actually got a balanced match — not constantly up-tiered — I relaxed. I first saw the changes on a streamer’s channel, tipped them a couple bucks, and told my buddy to try it. That match made me genuinely smile, like okay, they fixed something. Still some rough edges, but I’m happy overall.

loot boxes, pay-to-win hooks, progression padded to make you buy. After a few recent patches something shifted: rewards are less stingy, matches feel fairer, the core mechanics still click. It's not perfect, not by a long shot, but it actually helps me relax now. Wouldn't call it free, but it's usable again.

I first noticed this on the game forum, after I left a review. They marked my post as 'unreliable' with a 'want to know more' tag. That surprised me. What bugs me most is that the tag asks for an email — and if you use your registered one they can tie it to your account. So I started using a throwaway for feedback; I even told a buddy. Oddly, customer support did reply once and actually followed up, which I didn't expect. Still, be careful with your email.

I still enjoy the core gameplay, but the business side and the never-ending balance circus have worn me down. I started playing in 2015 and my first impression was excitement — maps, tanks, progression, it felt rewarding. Over time it turned into a casino: every patch highlights a few tanks that go god-mode to create hype, then they get nerfed, rinse and repeat. Feels like a nudge to spend. Match quality slid too; after years a lot of players with little skill end up in higher tiers and you get randoms in key slots, so teamwork vanishes. I used to play for hours every day; now it’s an hour or so a few days a week. Kind of nostalgic and a little annoyed — the game can still be a jewel, but company choices spoil it.

I bought a premium pack last week after 12 years of playing. The digital key arrived within hours, which was great, but that was about the only smooth part. First impression was promising — shiny tanks, quick access — then gameplay and support killed it. Cheaters are everywhere, RNG feels tuned against you, and reporting them eats a ton of time with little result. I opened a ticket and got a canned reply after three days; not helpful. Price is steep, and it feels like a constant cash grab. Delivery: good. Service: not.

it looks polished, but something felt... off, like the wins were stingy. At first I blamed my bad luck; after a couple of weeks it felt intentional. Support never answered my tickets — or they did, I think, but nothing helpful — so that didn't help. The paid monthly tips? Pretty useless. Still, every now and then you get a satisfying win and you think, "huh, okay" — then it drifts back to meh. Bottom line: bought with doubts, most doubts stuck.

tanks felt solid, the map played out like a real fight, and the graphics made me pause — pretty rare. That said, it’s a mixed bag. Progression is maddeningly slow unless you spend a ton, and RNG in hits can be annoying; I got lucky and I also saw teammates pay their way forward. I’m grateful the devs add fresh modes and that it isn’t made for kids, but I’m annoyed by the lootbox stuff and some blatantly overpowered vehicles they won’t touch. Still, for short sessions to unwind and actually feel like you’re in a proper tank fight, it mostly delivers — just don’t expect a free ride.
