I’ve got about a week playing WT, 5 years playing WoT, and 1 year playing World of Warships. Here are my impressions:WoT is very arcade, which IMHO is worse.
To do well in WT you need to practice tactics and know your tank and enemy tanks very well (X-ray).
I do OK in tanks.
I am frequently top player in Naval
In the air, I only play Sim EC. I do very well in that mode.
PS, the trick to winning is Crew.
Apply Crew points correctly and pay for Expert mode, that is about 1/3 of what it takes to win.
- WT is much tougher than WoT, even WT in arcade mode. But this does not mean WoT is not enjoyable. It’s just a different set of rules, more forgiving rules.
- WT = frequent one shotting, and if not that, serious incapacitation that makes the odds of survival highly unlikely as you are shot over and over again, which is great if you are the shooter. WT mitigates this somewhat by allowing you 3 lives in a battle.
- In WoT a bad move equals losing some heath, not death. If you prefer being able to one shot tanks, WT is better. If you prefer relaxed rules, WoT is better.
- WT maps are huge, and complex generally speaking. Familiarity with the maps makes a huge difference. WoT maps are more compressed and easier to find the fight. A typical WoT rural battle could be a Valley with opposing forces starting on opposite ends.
- As far as tank handling, light tanks in WT (based on the 4 tanks I have driven) actually feel more Arcady than WoT. In WT, they are very slippery slidey.
As far as WR naval, I shoukd try it, but am very satisfied with the pace and required tactics in World of Warships. My beef there is the number of torpedoes they have put on destroyers to balance the game, which drives me a little crazy, when a destroyer can take out a battleship with a single salvo of 20 torpedoes. Ridiculous...
