I have been playing the game now for about a week. I do not like the wait to get into the arena. MY choice of tanks sucks. I have enough credits to buy a better tank but the tab that says purchase will not let me click on it.. I have only landed about 8 kills thus far..
I totally hate using the mouse for control.. They really need to allow joysticks.
Other than those few items, it is a fun game to play.. Very fast moving the entire time.. The guys who have been playing longer clearly have the advantage with better tanks than the noobs..
The wait is to allow them to create something of a remotely level playing field. They could just take the first 30 players, but I doubt you'd like fighting Tigers, T-44's, and JPIV's with your tier I light tank.
You have to research anything you purchase unless it is a premium vehicle you buy with gold, that's what the experience points are for. If you have been there for a week, you should have enough gold to buy a Pz38H735t light German tank. it costs 750 gold. It will really rack up credits and experience points if you use it correctly.
