What are /v/'s thoughts on the Wargaming series?

Said series includes World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, and World of Warships.

>>322475380
p2w as fuck m8
>>
>>322475491
How so?
>>
>>322475861
It's not. You can buy consumables with in-game credits cheaply. As for premium vehicles, they tend to be decent but very rarely better than the ones you unlock in the tech trees.

All premium game time does is give you 50% more exp and credits which just speeds up the grind for new vehicles.
>>
way too grindy
>>
>>322476227
What this guy said. The games themselves are kinda fun but the grinding is what really kills it for me.
>>
It's pretty good (Tanks and Ships though, planes is fucking awful even by F2P standards)
Pretty grindy, but only morons play in high tiers.
Tiers 5-7 is great.
>>
WoT: It's ok
WoWP: Total shit
WoWS: Meh
>>
>>322476326
>>322476227
I never understood this argument. In both WoT and WoWS, the lower tiers are the most enjoyable ones. Past Tier 7, matches become carrier duels in which playing any ship besides a carrier is pretty much a guaranteed loss.
>>
>>322477252
How the fuck does a carrier play in this game? All they do is be a moving landing strip for planes.
>>
>>322477252
Because autists want to get the BIGGEST AND BADDEST SHIP to show off their e penis.
>>
>>322477408
There's a tactical view that lets you set paths for your planes. You can take manual control of the bombers to torpedo enemies.
>>
>>322477408
Like an RTS
I'm serious, it's just point and click on a map.
>>
I like WoT. I want to like WoWS but suck total shit at it. Every time I try I end up getting destroyed the first time I start shooting at something. everything takes so long to kill.
WoWP is trash.

Completely optional.

>"But guys it isn't that bad!"
>It actually is
>Have everyone tricked that tier 10 is fun

It's common knowledge that any tier above 7 is dogshit. That's why everyone plays in the lower tiers.

>Pay for tier 8s, so every kid now has an IS-6 or T34

Premium tanks/ships are dogshit compared to the ones you actually have to unlock.

>RNG for penetration and damage

Play Warships.
>Game is consistently 1 vs 29
>Everyone is obsessed with stats
>Anyone good just padded them

You just described every multiplayer game ever made.
>>
>>322478090

Well, they're the only way to decide if someone is good.
There are even equations that use bits of every other stat. Called, for example, WN6 or WN8. To produce a number that is then graded on a scale.

For example, greens would be like 800 on a certain stat. Blues would be like 1000, and purples would be 1600. Or higher.
While bad players would be like 400.

It's all they talk about.
Clans have gotten so exclusive today, the 4chan /vg/ clan is dead as fuck, that I can't find a clan anymore.
To earn gold. So I just quit. With /vg/ dead, there was no community interested in me. Because I'm only above average. Everyone now whats 58%+ winrate and 8 tier 10 tanks or some fucking shit. I only got into /vg/ because I was from the threads, we had some really good games and I don't remember losing but 5 games.

You only get trial mechs, if you want to modiffy a mech to stand a chance you need to buy one with real money.

>>322478598
All i'm saying is while paying in WoT will give you a certain degree of edge in MWOL not paying will take any edge and dangle it in front of you while MGL logos appear around you and airhorns blast all around.

In WoT you can kill wallet warriors, in MWOL you cant.

I'll concede this.
I can't get into a clan, so I can't buy the bonuses with in-game rewarded gold like good players can.
Tanks is really really fun if you can get into a clan. But then it turns into a chore to keep up with mumbles and teamspeaks. Along with schedules.

So fuck all that.

Why are p2w drones always so adamant about defending their horrible ass cash-draining phone-tier games? It happens with LoL and every other game where you have to pay money for content or advantage.
>>
>>322480056
Honestly, clans are shit. Just play alone and buy premium so you earn XP at twice the rate. Easy money.
>>
>>322480130
Sunk cost fallacy, among other regrets.
>>
>>322480130
I dunno about WoT, but Warships has no such consumables. The only shit you can buy (other than premium) are Elite Ships, and those are the squishiest ships in the game. They're objectively inferior to the ships you have to manually unlock.
>>
>>322480274
That Greywhatever Russian DD wast OP as fuck tho.

Anyways, that game went to shit after the last alpha buid.

The only issue with warships seems to be balance, even the grind for new ships isn't as bad as WoT.

I know this is cliche but, honestly, how do you expect them to make money? Interrupting your game play with ads?

You don't have to spend gold to buy the ammo or consumables, it's entirely optional and not even that expensive with silver.

>>322481257
And you can't earn enough silver to play high tiers unless you buy premium and/or premium tanks, you fag.

It was funny when you were defending cammo bonuses for gold. Even WG turn back after the shitstorm
>>
It's beyond me how someone can defend the gold ammo system.
>>
>>322481379
Well, you can't really sell cosmetics in a tank game. Other than camo and shit.

I don't mind most premium tanks, since most of them are gimmicky and worst than a fully upgrade tank of the same tier, but both gold ammo and consumables are bad for the game, specially when medium tanks can pen heavy ones without problems.
>>
>>322481390
high tiers?why do you think people play their favorite tank at tier7 and 6 to grind silver?
you make money based on how much damage you can do,that's why people play tanks with good alpha and cheap ammo.
>>
>>322477115
I just found my favorite ship and I'm probably just going to stay at this tier and play ranked when next season comes. I simply know it's not getting better than this
>>
>>322481654
>why do you think people play their favorite tank at tier7 and 6 to grind silver?
Because they are forced to play tier 7 and 6 instead of what they want.

Yeah, forced to do something choring or spend money, great game you are defending m8.

>>322481560
The same people who spend their money in stupid overpriced silver/gold bundles. They are just retards

>>
>>322481818
no one is forcing you to play tier7 and 6,it's just that the higher the tier,the better you must do in a match to get profit,if you play like a retard with a is-7 you will lose more than you got in 10matches

Serious question now: Are you legally retarded or shilling for gold?
>>
>>322475380
The main issue with it really is it's not War Thunder.

I've played both and I think War Thunder is just a better, more furfilling experience. It's still grindy as fuck and comes with its fair share of P2W Premium Tanks and fucking cunt nugget imbalances (in high tiers), but the gameplay is so much more enjoyable.

The WarGaming series does have variety though, way more vehicles, but that doesn't mean shit to me since the combat is so RNG based.
>>

warthunder,it's actually worse.

think about driving your tiger1 and getting your entire crew fucked by a sherman m4 at long range with just one shell,if the crew dies,the tank is dead.

As with all free games it suffers from "put in 1000 hours or pay" making it essentially pay to win.

But this is objectively false. Sure, the grind is real and real money can save a lot of time, but you can definitely just grind it out and save your precious autismbucks. Besides, if you don't like grinding (i.e. gameplay), why even play the game in the first place?
