World of Tanks Blitz Reviews 252

Why is this game getting worse…I had 20%wr today
20 f vcking %….what is even the point in playing when the odds are stacked against you!!…you only want a fair chance, you never get that, well a 1 in 5 chance

For your own mental health stay away from this game.

Overall, the game has been great. Over the past month or so though, every time I launch the game on my phone and try to acquire premium time, it says that the resources will be available soon (but never are) and it also keeps saying that it can't connect to the store and for me to restart the game. I assure u, this isn't an internet connection issue, it's within the game. So, what gives?

Very inconsistent results. Don’t care about winning or losing, for me it’s about being able to do well in the game. Being able to do damage. I’ve played games where I could destroy tanks at will with them not being able to any or very little damage to me even though they’re blasting me and vice versa…doesn’t matter which tank I use either. Another issue is movement of the tank…many times I try to turn the tank and goes in reverse or try to go forward and it turns. Does whatever it wants. Frustrating when you spend hard earned money on something and just feel like you’re being ripped off.

Matchmaking really sucks. Many players are afk. The worst players decide the game and ruin your experience. The gambling should be illegal and removed from the game.

I played quite a lot. In the beggining it was fun. But it changed. Now all you get is frustration. Today i decided to quit this game for good. You start many matches with disadvantage. Like I just had 17 battle in a raw bottom tier. It is ok to be sometimes bottom tier. You would say 50 - 50, but now it is 80 - 20. And 70 % percent you get less heavy or medium in your team. Very hard to get your team to win. Additionally they stopped russain server because of war. But what is the meaning to stop their server when all russains play in EU server? And all they speak is russain. Very frustrating. I think it is very hypocrite to stop their server but still want their money. I recommend all readers please avoid this game. You will save yourself many frustration.

Game sucks more and more.
WFT how can wargaming suddenly put RU on EU server.
Before we could communicate in ENG now it is impossible, games are rigged.

I am NOT going to spend more money on this!!!

WG WOT Blitz Have gotten around sanctions imposed on Russia by amalgamating their Russian server (CIS) into the European (EU) server. This was done under the pretext of pulling out of Russia to do the right thing but is just a thin veiled way of getting around the sanctions imposed on Russia, i.e. Russian players could not buy from the store due to the sanctions, transfer them to Europe they can now buy from the store. Really disgusting company, they make me feel literally sick. Don’t play this game, or any other WG game, support Ukraine and play something else, you’ll be a better person for it.

Avoid at all cost. I used to play World of Tanks. Spent 2 years and had quite successful clan. Nothing hardcore but we reached world map a few times. Daily plays and trainings etc. Good days where with few mods you could see on the loading screen other players performance. At some point it hit me that due to very good combat rating of my platoon we were consistently given very poor teams. Not randomly, consistently... as to force our win rate to go down. Well it has been a few years and I heard about WOT BLITZ. I read about it being much more fair, shorter gameplays (7 min instead of 15) etc... and I had a blast for about a month or so. This was the time it took the game engine to calibrate my account. From enjoyable 68% winrate I consistently started losing matches. 23 losses in a row and the teams continue to be really bad. How do I know that the game if forcing this... well... If you play about 900 battles you will slowly see how good it gets. You start getting AFKs - ppl who literally join the team and do nothing. Heavy tank campers etc. Med camikazee. The list go on.

It pains me to leave the game as I already poured in it about £200. I have about 150 days of premium left... to be honest... I'm happy to give my account to someone else.

Premium with about 15k ingame gold.

If you care for your sanity do not play this game. Big NO NO for the kids, I know when to stop buying but for all the kids and forced 'sales' that pop on your screen... the game is pure mobile hardore evil.

Speaking about being evil thief. Below are the GOLD sales that the store was presenting to me as good deals (first column are pounds, 2nd is gold), this is combination from website and in-game:
0.88 500
4.44 1500
4.44 3000
7.99 3250
7.99 6500
20.44 8500
20.44 17000
40 17500
57.78 27000
40 35000
80 37500
57.78 54000
80 75000

If you have noticed the, the ingame store was selling me less gold for the same amount of money. We are talking about the half of the amount!!!!!
For exactly the same price, on their website I could get 17000 gold, while ingame this gets you 8500!!!
I MUST add that the worst deal was marked for me as advantageous while I was in the game. I cannot imagine how many whales this game has.

The game is like a really hot but extremely toxic girlfriend. My only advice is... avoind if you can. If you MUST play and you are not having fun without spending money... then you won't have any even when you buy gold. The more you stay on low tiers the more they will force you into buying higher tier tanks, by matching you accordingly.

AVOID AVOID avoid!

I played this game over 3 years. When I started it was fun not so bad match makings or players, but when I reach like 4k matches everything changed, from 68 win rate i lower to the 53%, players are so bad and you can lose like 9 even 10 games in the row, and only frags or damages was those what I made in the matches. So war gaming have to work on the match making seriously or all good players will leave, me and almost all my friends left the game this year, I left this month tho, spent a lot of money as well on this game but no more fun in this game, only frustrating and toxic time so it was better to leave the game.

The game as currently built is way too out of balance, b/t the high number of premium (pay-to-play) tanks and a player base that uses their wallet to get farther along then their experience might warrant.

Far too many games are 7-0, 7-1, 7-2 routs as teams are routinely out-of-balance for the reasons given above.

Yes, it's addictive. But these days, not so much fun.

This game is addictive and on the most is good but this disappearing and reappearing tanks is ridiculous and totally unfair. Don't mind losing to fair better player but invisible tanks, really!

Mario Karts with a gun and better have a huge bank account to keep up with this game, the authenticity has gone, by the time you get that tank youve been wanting on the tech tree (in game unlockable tanks) new paid for tanks arrive that blow yr tank literally off the battlefield with the new three, four and even six shots compared to your standard one shell, Tanks like the lttb,t29s, sheridan a have been left behind WOT even managing to trash the reputation of their own TIGER tank in this game also, to get the good stuff yr gonna need to buy containers in which ive seen youtubers spend 300 Euros before wining a tank and maybe more , games are designed to go very fast , 1 min and 2 min games are not uncommon so that your paying for resources even quicker , it has an air of down right greed and the players can be very toxic so i dont advise children under 16 play this game as the toxicity could be upsetting from racism to foul lamguage although censored we know whats being said, the toxicity became so much here now decent players cant chat well, allowing us two words in battle chat lol weve all been numbed and also muted in regards to national chat under the wot blitz dictatorship. played 6 years i would gladly see this company closed down, its ethics towards Children are skewed , its 3 plus age i find disturbing regarding ingame bullying, racism, gambling and foul language. ive recently ended my gaming here as over the last few weeks the frustration of players is at an altime high and im fed up with the bullying and ive noticed more cheaters than ever using mods, hacks another negative i knew would come just like AVA's downfall wot blitz is following suit, Thanks for pushing me out the game Wot blitz after 6 years you blew it.

This game has to be the biggest con in the online gaming community. It is a pay to win game but not only that, it is a PAY FOR EVERYTHING game. They try to extract money from players for every little thing. The game is deliberately designed to be addictive and it encourages gambling in children by getting them to pay for 'boxes' that might contain something useful in the game. This is illegal in many countries but it is getting under the radar of the authorities. DO NOT LET YOUR KIDS PLAY THIS GAME! It is designed to be frustrating and can bring out extreme anger in children. It is one of the worst examples I have seen of blatantly ripping off players for profit. Oh and for anyone who thinks I am an inexperienced player who losses all the time, I have played over 30k games and have a win rate overall of 55.95% which is reasonable. I have contacted the ACCC in Australia for comment on the encouragement of online gambling in minors.

Playing for a few years and have enjoyed in the past.

Unfortunately the builders have become greedy and overly encourage pay to win gamers. The people that have been long term and not so successful seem to more often end up on a team that don't attempt to win, or understand to game at all. The algorithm seems to favour moneys spenders.

It is a great game but there are minor glitches, rubbish match making, bit other wise it is great fun. No game is perfect. It is the bad players who put bad reviews on.

Completely rigged game and therefore not worth playing. They just want your money. Go elsewhere

The game is rigged. This is the single most important fact to understand. I will explain some of the ways the game is rigged below but you have to understand the motivations of WG - to make money. Pure and simple. They have no interest in a game that requires skill. They need bad players to carry on playing and not to give up and that is why they rig the game. Another reason is that long winning streaks and long losing streaks are bound to encourage you to continue for longer. If you are winning, you are feeling enjoying it so much you will continue. If you are losing, you will be frustrated but likely continue to 'turn it around'. What is not good for them is a 60% player winning 6 out of 10 games. In that event after 10 games he/she will likely stop. Now I will explain how they rig it and by the way if you google these items you will find statistical investigations of each of them - Yes they have been verified whatever WG say:

1. Matchmaking (MM) - several ways this is rigged (i) being made lower tier so you have less chance (you will be fodder for higher tier tanks) to influence the result. I know one good player who recorded whether he was lower or upper tier over 2000 games (a very large sample set) and found he was lower tier 65% of the time. The game was rigged against him (ii) the average WR of the tanks in your team vs the competitor team - again the algorithm works to rig the result. In one analysis on youtube a 65% player found his team's average WR was 50% (including his own) vs 52% for the opposition over 600 games. Again this is statistically significant and not chance (iii) type of tank -they introduced all these fantasy tanks like smasher to kill you in one go.
2. In Game Dynmaics (i) ghost shots -these are shots that vanish - I sent a video in and they confirmed they exist but they don't do anything about them. I suspect this is because this is part of the rig effort (ii) RNG - random number generator which is supposed to represent the random element as to where a shell goes/bounces or hits tracks - you will find on some days that literally most shots hit tracks or miss and other days where the opposite occurs (this one is harder to prove but trust me it is there and the 40% player opposite will penetrate your tank every time).
3. AI bots - WG refused to deny they used these to provide more players but basically they would be another way to rig the result.
4. Cheats - widely known about and strictly speaking not a WG issue but they cover it up.

Total stupid game full of bots, mongols, haters and racists!!!!

Do not spend money in this scam game you will always find tanks stronger than yours and you will lose every game even if you are good players and you commit, bad game.

Unbalanced game with tanks in battle of different level and stealing where 9 times out of ten you are destined to lose, the premium tanks are weaker than the standard ones it is not worth spending money on this game that instead of relaxing makes you nervous because it is developed very badly, bad judgment.
