Its a ton of fun! Definitely pay to win. Yes, you can ay for free, but if you want to get anywhere in a tank tree this year, you have got to pay. Also, I DO pay the monthly subscription, but players who rely on special purchased tanks seem to rule the game. Also dont bring it up overpowered tanks because youll just get called a bad player. Im almost 40, I dont need to bullied by these people. And yes I mean actual bullying - from personal bullying to game-play bullying. Bloatware.
