Not all games have cheaters.

World of Tanks for example only has some clientside mods that give a small advantage, like camera mods, laser sights, tracers etc. Some of them are even allowed and used by many players so I wouldn't call them cheats.

Not to mention that if you get banned in WoT you are FUCKED. This isn't Call of Duty or some f2p shit, you'll have to buy another account or grind ALL the way back up to where you were.

And a progression system isn't cheating. Everyone can get top tier tanks in WoT.

Don't know how it is in Armored Warfare but last I checked it was a ctrl-c ctrl-v job, so I think this may be relevant to this, too.

Give your impressions after you've played a lot. Comparisons to WoT mainly, since you played that, too.

it's same ui and gameplay, but different
arty is different, it's rapid firing, less damage, no one-shotting, and lights on map if fires 3 rounds from the same place
there are no heavy tanks, most are MBT, but a lot of other stuff, slowest tanks are ~40km/h, fastest ATVs are 90km/h
also guided rockets, composite armor, reactive armor, active armor, smoke launchers, etc..

battles seem more dynamic, if you like WoT, give it a try

Played WOT for last time today, no regrets, won't be going back, 2 hours for AW...

WOT has too much broken ass garbage in the game and flaws WG just refuses to fix because they are lazy or incompetent.

Obsidian has fixed more during the EA phases than WG has in past 2 years. And they listen to people.

Super Unicum POV from WOT.

"mod exploits" lol

Only thing I hate in WOT is stats ingame, even though it's awesome at the same time for people to see how awesome I am at the game but being focused by 3 artillery because of XVM is just dumb.

There are no real "mod exploits", and the ones that are there won't make anyone a good player anyway so it doesn't really matter.

Trust us, noobs, WoT "cheat" mods give a slight advantage towards those that don't use them, but good players are always going to win over worse ones. Those mods are just crutches for the disabled. OK ok, I was using a couple of the less banned ones Laughing

they probably wont make them win vs a unicum player but who the fuck cares about those 2%. The bulk of the players is casual (shit) and those mods give them an edge vs those.

And the mods won't help Super Unicums in any way really, so I don't see any harm in them, tomatos will always be tomatos.

But this is AW thread, not that piece of shit WOT.

And AW is fucking good!

Did they scale down the grind from the betas? Someone calculated it requires on average around 8-10 times as many battles to get a tier X tank, than WoT.

T-90, tier 8 tank seems to be 540k EXP.

At T6 I prolly average closer to 2k reputation per game, the higher tier you are, the more you get.
T7 should have no trouble breakin 2k rep every game if you are good (Unicum level).

T7 to T8 shouldn't be that bad then atleast, like 250 games, in WOT it takes about 1000 games to get to T10 if you skip to like T5 or something.

It does seem it will take slightly longer than in WOT.

Good thing is though that when you spend reputation buying modules for your tanks, it counts towards the next tank so it's not like in WOT where you spend 200k exp to get all modules for a tank and then another 200k to unlock the next tank.

Much better the way AW has it if you ask me.

And being stock doesn't make you useless like it does in WOT.

T4 to T5 is 64 800
T6 135 300
T7 270 300
T8 540 300

So about 1 million EXP from T4 to T8, so about 500 games.

So 8-10 is over the top if you ask me, it might be twice as much, maybe less even, to get T10 but nowhere near as much as you say.

Any good if you buy the expensive pack? Or everything will be available at some point for the rest of the players?

You save about 55€ if you buy the expensive pack, definitely value for your money right there.

Do it!

The smaller packs come out about even if you bought it all seperately.

EDIT: I was a bit wrong there, you save about 35€ on the Lord Of War, 1€ on the middle one and lose 2€ on the first one if you don't count any value for the extra commander or title or head start you get.

I wasn't talking about EA, I was talking about yesterday when I played 44 games.

There is a clan system in place but it is rather primitive right now.
Atleast making a clan doesn't cost a fortune like it does in WOT, it's either 4 mil credits or 230 gold.
