So... someone directed me towards yet another "Free-To-Play" RPG made by Russians.

World of Tanks
is set in the ambiance of WW2 tank battles. So, instead of warlocks and archers and dragons... you have Tanks and Self-Propelled Guns and "Stuff".

It's in beta right now. You can submit a application to join the closed beta like I did and they might send you a code.

It's not a tank simulator.... but not quite a tank shooter ... it's got some persistent roleplay to bridge the gap between the two.


So... you start out with a basic tank... commonly refered to as a loltraktor.... because it's the entry level rolling distraction.

You play in basic arena battles (so far) which pits a certain number of players against each other... usually a 32 player game (right now). It's basic team deathmatch with a capture objective (base flag) to control. First team to have all their players killed or their base flag lost... loses. So, it's pretty simple right now... I don't know what they have planned for it in the future.


After the game you earn Experience and Credits. This is where you spend your time in the "Garage". You have crew you can recruit and they learn skills that make them better drivers, gunners, radio operators ect as you play (and I think survive battles). You also have an extensive technology tree to spend your research points and credits on. You progress through the research trees upgrading equipment like you Main Gun, your Turret, your Radio, Engine ect ect... you unlock new tanks you can research and buy.


Graphics get the job done, they're decent but nothing spectacular. Sound is decent.... as far as overall gameplay I go from "Hey this is fun!" to "Holy **** this is gay!". I've been just soloing it though in random games... I think there is potential for some good times with a few buddies to team up and roll with.


Anyone else heard of it?

Holy **** that vid gives me wood.



I am a tank Police/commander in the So Cal Scenario paintball scene.


However what that game lacks is the power of infantry. They can make or break tank support.

Just Tank on Tank action is not a satisfying strategy

It's google... they've attached an advert to the video... so of course they don't want it'd embedded...


I think this is a video of some tourney earlier in the dev cycle... the UI is simpler.

I'd have to say yes. You are wrong. Having now played it... it's nothing like Red Orchestra tank gameplay.

They made a teaser video that pokes fun at this fact.

Currently uploading a video intro of me in game. Can't find a half decent video of what the game is essentially like...

Alright. My video is uploaded. Nothing super impressive, just a basic walk-through of a little gameplay. Youtube sucks at compression quality (click the pop-out button next too the resolution/fullscreen buttons).

PS: actually it's the browser frame that degrades the video quality in it's attempt to resize it to fit the frame. Clicking the pop-out button makes things look much better. You can then resize the window for a much better view of the video.

I've been playing it for awhile. Ever since Vlasic mentioned it in a thread.

Currently only the Soviet and German tech trees are available but the USA and a couple of others will be available. If you are in the closed beta, participate in 1 battle per day to get gold. 250 gold can get you a premium account for 24 hours which increases your XP/credits by 50%.

Teams are balanced by tank score, and the game is pretty skill based.

They have listed their 'clan wars' system, which looks somewhat EVEish.

Details on Clan Wars Revealed :: World of Tanks ? Free To Play Panzer MMO Game, Community Web-Site

Once per day Clan Masters declare attacks on neutral or enemy provinces, and a corresponding number of battles are scheduled and take place accordingly. The bigger your clan is, the harder it gets to repel attacks and expand your empire. That***8217;s why diplomacy is of great importance. Clans can sign treaties, non-aggression pacts, become vassals, etc. Having a couple of solid alliances will help protect the Clan***8217;s flanks and rear. But we also expect a lot of treachery, changing alliances, double-agents, stubbing in the back and other political tricks.
