As a matter of fact I have - even though it's like saying I like to read Michael Connelly when having a glass of red whine with my cultural elite friends
I did rather enjoy the fact that they really have done a lot of their homework on the sheer volume of nicely modelled tanks in WoT. Even though they have a bunch of Frankenstein configurations and "1946" models it's hard to deny that it's a bit fun collecting experience to upgrade that PzIV main gun to a 75 L/70
The main problem is that the game itself is way to much arcade with no real physics or bullet trajectories etc.
The second problem that to a large extent is worse is that my son who is nine got an IS-3 and complains that most people in WoT "don't understand tactics"
Says a lot if a nine year old says that...
But I did have a bit of fun with it at first... I guess the "100 octane" / ".50 cal" / "FW190 bar" crowd chews their worn out copies of "The most dangerous enemy" to pieces after a statement like that
Even though I swing off topic above it's friday and we are talking a possible tank sim extension of CloD here so...
