I'm patiently waiting for an Autoloading T95. Or an Autoloading ISU-152. Maybe an Autoloading Jageroo? I wonder what the next autoloaders will be. You can bet that they will probably have spaced armour like crazy! Auto loading tier 7 medium probably. To be fair I'd probably get a Comet if it had an autoloader like the Chi-Ri. But only with gold from crates, fuck actually spending money on the game.

indirect nerfing aka power creeping. Are premium tanks more powerful than TT tanks these days? Oh absolutely. Not everything they port from PC is, but pretty much anything the console team creates, that being the mercenary frankentanks, is covered in spaced armor and generally gets better versions of the TT parts they are copying. That or they take a PC premium, cover it in spaced armor, and then sell it at an upcharge since it's just blatantly better. Like the reskinned version of the AMX-M4-49 being covered in sandbag spaced armor. They nerfed the Skoda gun at Tier 9 because it was "too powerful" despite the rest of the tank's components being mediocre. So obviously putting the un-nerfed gun in a Chieftain turret on an AMX-50-120 chassis still at tier 9 is super balanced right? Their new fetish seems to be taking a random TT tank and just giving it an autoloader. We now have an autoloading Caernarvon and T28 prototype for no reason in particular. tier X premiums too, it would seem. I thought they had said that they were never going to do that but then again, I thought they said they were never going to rerelease the black edition tanks either. The business model is just release tanks which people don't have and people will buy them.

I just noticed the Inferno Chimera in the British line too. I didn't bother getting to reading their excuse for that. Probably translates to gameplay but it's difficult to take seriously something which looks like that.

Sooooo I recently (~a month ago) started playing tanks again after a long break (past 2 years have been a crazy ride)
The game is exactly the same and yet completely different...

RNG seems incredibly erratic at this point, mercy bounces and ghost shells galore. Russian tanks auto aim sniping waffle 4's driving at full speed, weaving back and forth at 400m's.
I look at the list of tanks on either team and I have no idea what anything is. 3/4 of them are either reskins or mutant amalgamations. Some are just different names for the same tank but maybe a tier off. Others are just straight up better than their TT counterpart. A few break their tier.
This game is finally starting to lose its lustre for me. They have new earn operations quarterly now it seems but I have no drive to really keep playing this game any more, especially since WoWs is just so much better (in my opinion anyways)

Clearly the downfall started when I was excised from the shit forum  I still believe the real trouble began when we had ~8 months of nothing new while they were working on updating the game to HD and the Xbox one version way, way back when. That's when people started waking up to some annoyances like the repair wheel and such. WG started getting more and more defensive over time and now they just don't care so long as their handful of whales keeps buying. I used to be one of them too lol.

Honestly If they had fewer maps and less variations of each map, and no mercenary tanks I'd be more interested in it. I liked it when it just had a few maps.

Even though we have plenty of em, the map rotation is pretty bad so that you tend to see the same few fairly often.

I know what you mean there, but if they happen to be the maps I hate then I'm pretty screwed.

If you hate every map then you don't have to waste your time hoping for a good one! It works wonders!

Maybe if WOTC was more like WOWs. With daily containers and flags and camos with xp bonuses. I hated the wows pay camo aystem at first but now that I've been through a few grinds I think it's nice to be able to put on a 200% camo and then some flagd to stack more xp earning potential on that.
I know they have a simular system but I don't like it. Also the boost don't seem as accessable as flag in wows, and mostly a cash item.
oh and freexp tanks would be cool too.
