Just comparing how quickly can you grind out early 1960s vehicles.
WoT trees for comparison:
WT trees and grind summary:
From a friend of mine who plays WT since at least 2017, maybe earlier, I heard grind before was much slower and equaled of grinding top tier modern MBTs today - they had same RP and SL cost. It means the top tier vehicles of former WarThunder are so much faster to get now - you can get to WoT’s mid tier (VI-VII, pic below) in just a few days of chill grind, and further in a few weeks but of more tense grind (shown all above). It’s honestly great, after playing modern MBTs and acknowledging they aren’t realistic at all and are some shitty on tanks, I’d rather play Roblox’ MTC, and in WarThunder, I’ll stick to trying out other nations instead, considering how fast the grind actually is. I do wish we had more realistic modern battles though, with real maps, real armor values for what is known and what is not yet, without false sped up controls of some tanks and weird modules that only apply to certain vehicles just to favor players of one nations while harassing the other.
What WT lacks is more WW2 tanks though. Sadly, modern pays more cus of people who enjoy it. I wouldn’t mind some paper or mockup vehicles, they would be more realistic than MBTs with fake armor and other specs they have right now, no joke. And some countries, like France, USSR and USA, have plenty of great prototypes. Japan could get it’s whole pack of self-propelled guns and historical Ho-Ri. Even China had it’s own cool tank remakes. None I mentioned are yet released by Gaijin’s contemporary, snail could be first if it cared about it’s better ground battles time period.
Also Gaijin, can we get A-20, KV-13, T-150, T-43, ELC 901, SP. 1C, and all the arty from the game above? Love me some new stuff for the next update.
