I used to play WT 10 years ago, back in the good old days where there were only planes of five countries and five tiers of vehicles. It’s unfortunate that the game has ended where it has, since there are no good substitutes out there that I know of.
To be honest, I like that they added tanks to the game. I started playing a little after the tanks update, and the game was fun as hell back then. There weren’t try-hards, there weren’t game breaking mechanics, you only had like 4 nations to choose from (if not only three, I don’t remember how many were there at launch) and generally, the game was just a lot better.
now there’s a million nations, the same tanks in a lot of the trees, too many BR levels so you’re stuck fighting tanks that are way too powerful for yours because you happen to be nearer the end of the BR range you’re in. And simple fragments of a round that hit feet from your tank can breach your hull and kill your entire crew?! It’s absolute ass, and world of tanks is far from a substitute unlike what some people insist upon it being.
I would love a tank game that forced you to actually use tank tactics and work with your teammates, and didn’t allow you to use period-inaccurate tanks for “”““balance””“”. But, unfortunately, I haven’t found that yet.

Have you tried “World of Tanks”?
I’ve watched people play it, and aspects of it look enjoyable. But it’s far from the semi-realism that WT has so I’m not that interested in it.
