World of Tanks? World of WTF!

wtf-cat

I was scanning through news on MMORPG.com when I came across this thing called World of Tanks. Is it an MMO or not? Regardless why would anyone play this ridiculous thing?

World of Tanks is billed as MMO of some kind where everyone drives tanks around and shoots at each other, at some point there will be control points supposedly, and you can upgrade your tank in a garage or something. How in God’s name do people get funding for crap like this. As an independent developer with an incredible creative and development team I know how hard it is to get funding for a game and how hard it is to compete in today’s market. If someone pitched me this game idea I would laugh them out of our conference room.

The article on MMORPG.com centered around the debate on whether or not this game was actually an MMORPG. It appeared the conclusion they cam to was that it isn’t and it will be removed from the official list. The first thing that came to mind when I read it was, “Who cares what it is it sucks.”

I will admit that I am sometimes wrong in my assessment of a games popularity (which I always credit to the masses being stupid) but holy brown cow Batman, anyone who plays this thing should seriously find something better to do with their time. Info and source links below:

    First of all… someone whom shall remain nameless needs to work on their grammar, and spelling. I think you know who you are in the comments.

    And WoT sucks. You were right to assume it was complete crap because it is. I’ve been playing it for a while now, and not a day goes by that I don’t exit that game pissed off. Not really over the game itself, but more because I spent money on something so shitty. I guess I take it out on myself by subjecting myself to such idiocy. Not only is the game populated by prepubescent imbeciles, but the ballistic qualities of the game are just shoddy. And that’s putting it lightly. I can deal with shitty games with a coke and a smile just fine… but when I’m forced to spend money on a game (That I would like to play – or did, rather) in order to get anywhere within the next few years, and it spits in my face… I get a bit testy.

    If I could rate WoT on a scale from 1-10, of course 1 being the most horrendous thing I’ve ever played in my life, and 10 being the greatest, I would gladly rate this thing a 4. It’s got the potential to be everything it should be. But the capitalist addendum, and gross inaccuracies make this game undesirable to anyone that doesn’t live with their mother, and suffer from facial acne.
