Tanks a Lot - War of Machines for Pc

Don’t get me wrong, this is an incredibly fun game. Choosing bits to make up a little tank, and competing with others in rotating multiplayer modes that are long enough to enjoy but short enough to play multiple rounds in a ten minute span. Though I wish we could simply play ALL game modes whenever we chose, I understand the developers rotating them to keep player counts high and loading times short. It is somewhat disturbing that the tournament limits the ticket number, but allows pay to win players to purchase more... However, I find myself constantly playing, or wanting to play this game either way since I’ve gotten it. But the only way to upgrade anything for your tank is through cards that essentially only come from chests or purchasable for coins that DO ONLY come from chests. Therein lies the paywall - this game is extremely limited by the four-chest, single-unlock method adapted by most recent apps. So if you manage to win four matches, your chest slots are full and you don’t get any coins for a win. It’s extremely difficult to gain cards to upgrade, and harder yet to pay to upgrade anything at all. If we could watch an unlimited number of ads to shorten unlock times on chests, or if we could at least unlock multiple chests at once, this would be a non-issue. However, I don’t expect any changes to take place. Happy to change my rating if, and only if, changes do take place. Good luck future players.

If this game would fix a couple of things it would be a great mobile game. Unfortunately where it lacks really takes away from the game. First issue is matchmaking. I don’t know how this is chosen but all too often I get stuck with awful teammates. The kind of teammates that think every game mode is death match when it’s not. Also I get stuck with people who try to take 3 on 1 and die constantly which is irritating. There shouldn’t be pairings where you end up as 3 snipers in light bases vs a more rounded team, that happens too often. Another annoying part of the game is the trophy system. When I am the best player on a team and I have 7 kills 2 assists and 1 death but we lose thanks to the awful team pairing I get -40 trophies. Take those same stats when we win and I get mvp I get +22 trophies. Why such an imbalance? With getting stuck on crappy teams all the time it’s really hard to advance on the leaderboard. If I win battle royals +22 trophies. Finish 6th in an off game -35. It really kills the game. Last thing is they don’t ban the obvious cheaters. Guy on the top of the leaderboard has 111 kills in one two minute game? It’s not possible yet somehow it stays. The leaderboard is full of stuff like that. Game is still a great time killer for waiting rooms though.

First let me get the cons out of the way on this game:As in all games that have timed loot boxes, the timers are entirely too long and even higher chests don’t give much good loot, usually only the bare minimum listed. There’s also not a huge amount of choices when it comes to most gear. The majority of bases are worthless and the commandos are all clones and very pricey to upgrade. The weapons fair a little better, but could use some TLC too. The controls are a bitty iffy as well, and half the time when you try to move joystick it fires your weapon instead. That being said, this game runs smooth AF, looks very nice, and has nice vibrant colors, and good visuals. I enjoy most of the game modes, though still frustrating when matched with similar ranked people (4600+ trophies) that drive into walls and completely ignore objectives. That’s not devs fault, but they do need a thumbs-up/down button to report toxic players. All in all, I’d highly recommend this game. The technical and balancing issues I’m sure will be addressed as the game ages and the loot-boxes are pretty much unavoidable in the genre. 5/5

This game is great and addicting, but I have a few issues. In the Battle Royale mode, the highest place you can get is pretty much 2nd place just because the last guy is incredibly powered up with 7000 HP and the best guns and whatnot. Another issue: crashes. This game crashes A LOT. I guess you could also blame it on the fact that I have an iPad Air 1st generation, so it’s older but that shouldn’t prevent my gameplay. Matchmaking is another issue, sometimes I get a person that is worse at the game and my team loses. Or someone on the other team is over powered. If I really want to think into the future, I want there to be an option for friends and custom 1v1. Maybe for the 1v1 you could create a custom map and 1 v 1 your friend or a random person. For this game to progress, you need to look into adding voice chat, not just “emotes”. Leveling up you guns and tank is also tedious, as it is a slow process because chests take so long to open. I wish ads were usable multiple times, and however many ads you watched deducted x hours from the open time. Other than that, it’s fun and addicting.
