Join a GVers fantasy MMO...and it is FREE!!!!

World of Tanks!  http://www.worldoftanks.com/  of course we already have a thread about it here: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,294035.0.html but I'd like to see the AH community make a strong showing for this nifty GV FPS (and incidentally, talk about AH there to the un-washed masses playing WoT to come try AH)  With enough of us, perhaps we could influence the development into what AH offers us, Regular arenas with linked bases to capture, DAs, FSO and even snap-shot events!!!!  

It is in Closed Beta but is easy to join, take a look at FlameWarriors: http://www.flamewarriors.net/forum/index.php

Maybe there could even be a cross-over of AH into WoT for planes at some date; HTC provides some planes for bomb****s, and in return, HT could get us some more GVs (but only the historically accurate ones)

Just my thoughts at 0230hours

Only One Word!

Fail !!!!

I pass this one.

Watched the gameplay videos, immediately disliked it.

Too bad some people like to judge a book by the cover.  It's really a fun game and so much better than the GV combat you find in AH.

At this point it's very much geared toward the Xbox arcade point potato crowd. The goal is to get into random battles, gain points in 2 categories and work your way up through the list of equipment, then you can pretend to be an expert in German and Russian armored warfare from 1936 to 1951(?).

As a first person shooter using tanks, the controls are simple and if you like a somewhat fast paced combination team deathmatch/capture the flag game play, it can be a hoot.

You don't know what you're missing.

exactly why its fun, we cant always settle in for an hour or two on AH but I can always have a few tank battles on my lunch break at work.

I don't doubt it's fun to you and thousands of other people. I'm just not interested in that kind of "shooter-like" games. I would be interested in more "sim" like tank combat, not that aerial external view stuff.
It just don't have that appeal to me at all.

I'm out of luck, I only have a netbook

Not much diff than scanning from command then jumping to gunner.

[Nemisis]

Krimm, WoT is free? Also, is the a list of tanks available?

Its free for now because its in closed beta stages but beta keys are fairly plentiful.
