I've played both WOT for 10 years and Warthunder for 4 years now. I find historically and more easy to access different vechiles with realism on Warthunder though its not perfect. In WOT I play a lot less now and I'm sick of the paper fake tanks and non historical BS and toxic players compared to Warthunder.
World of Tanks is kid's toys in a sandbox. War Thunder is a better model of vehicle combat. In UA-cam I have 4 WT channels subscribed with several videos a week viewed each. In WoT I have 2 channels which I periodically check but haven't watched a video from either in 2 or more years.
The variety of aircraft in War Thunder 'is not that great. Only fighters and bombers...'? Ten nations, aircraft from the 1930s to modern day, fighters, fighter-bombers, heavy-fighters, strike aircraft, strategic bombers, helicopters, and drones...it's actually the most developed part of the game, rivaling the tanks. That's an odd criticism.
An interesting analogy! World of Tanks and War Thunder, like Fortnite and Arma 3, cater to different tastes within the same genre, offering varying levels of realism and gameplay styles. It's all about what each player is looking for in a game.
@@Rizky3095 hmm lets see... Borat, progetto 46, turtle, ts5, bz 176, skoda t56, obj 703 II, su 130pm, elc 90, lt 432, 122tm, kari. Those are the ones on top of my head, still plenty more ofc and the only thing is3 better than is6 is penetration
I recently retired and finding lots of time on my hands, and a good internet provider, I thought I would try video games. Having had a career in the Air Force and a degree in history I was interested in military-based games. From a Facebook ad I looked into World of Tanks and started playing. Got to Tier 8 but could not go any further because of $$$. In fact, I was losing $$ regularly at Tier 4 and the fact that these tanks only represented their real-life counterparts in appearance only turned me off to the game. Tried War Thunder and the realism bowled me over. Sorry, there may be problems at times with the mechanics at WT, but this is a much better game. But I want the immersion. I want the history. I want the physics. And the adrenaline rush you get when you one-shot an opponent cannot be equaled in World of Tanks.
@user-br3ix5mq9g Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear how much you enjoy the realism and historical accuracy in War Thunder. It sounds like a perfect match for your interests.
think you use the gold ammo it is on key number 2 that shh is made to drain money! And the premium stuf like ration for crew and the large repair kit and stuf like that! To make the ingame curency you have to use the ammo on 1 and 3 with tanks and use the small stuf like the small repair kit that is 3k not 20k like the rest
@HopeAndPrei You’re right! Gold ammo and premium consumables in World of Tanks can definitely feel like a money sink if you’re not careful. Using standard ammo and lower-cost consumables is a great way to manage in-game currency more efficiently. It’s all about balancing your loadout to maximize effectiveness without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing these tips-very helpful for players trying to manage their resources better!
@@MidGame you see how they sink 20k for 1 premium consumable if you us 3 that is 60 k add that to a defeat where the cost of the repair of the tank is more then that batte... oo that stuf is made to make you pay. And as long as there will be those that will pay they will keep it!
That's a valid point. Each genre offers a different gaming experience and appeals to different types of players. It's important to evaluate games based on their own merits and the unique experiences they offer.
@grok8211 You make an interesting point about realism in games. Even the most realistic games are still forms of role-playing, where players get to experience scenarios and roles that simulate real-life events or historical periods, albeit within a structured set of rules and environments. This blend of realism and role-playing elements is what makes such games appealing to many players, providing both an escape and a way to engage with complex scenarios and strategies.
when you see this word (Versus) it means whos better, or whos the best.. wot is better, no matter what.. just.. this guy made this video because theres better between a and b.. ofcourse wot better, versus is talking about quality
I recently started playing World of Tanks (before that I played World of Tanks Blitz, and I still play) and I play War Thunder, and I don’t understand why people argue which game is better, each one has something cool.
Players War Thunder World of Tanks is criticized because there are tanks there that have HP, although War Thunder is also very bad in terms of realism. As for me, all games are equally cool
That's a great perspective! Both World of Tanks and War Thunder offer unique experiences, and it's more about personal preference than one being objectively better than the other.
As a former World of Tank player in 2017 and then a War Thunder player until now, I can say that the World of Tank game is too boring and linear because it keeps repeating battles with the same scenarios and is not much different. I think it's better for me to play Counter Strike than World of tanks, but in war thunder I can explore many things because it uses a complex mechanic and respawn system which makes players more alert and careful with their surroundings and there are also plane, ship, tank modes and many unique weapon systems that make the gameplay of this game very wide.
It's interesting to hear your perspective on the gameplay differences between World of Tanks and War Thunder. War Thunder's diversity in vehicles and gameplay mechanics indeed offers a broad experience. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
3:35 there are also strike and naval planes, but bomber fuses together with strike aircraft in higher tiers and naval can be anything as long as the plane was meant to fly for the navy of any nation(boat launched for example) 7:00 Realistic is a different category from Arcade and Sim its inbetween, it doesnt have the penetration indicator like in Arcade and with Ground Realistic Battles you can bring your own planes
Simulator battles are not "in between", they're like RB except there are no markers at all (including friendly vehicles) and no third person perspective.
The only what I hated in War Thunder is their physics. I'm not talking about the speed of the tanks, but the physics itself sometimes you get stuck all the time by the small rock.
This, when in 2018 I wanted to start a tank game I tried out both and getting stuck to tiny rocks and other objects eventually gravitated me fully towards WoT
War thunder live is officially owned by war thunder, it's not a 'third party site', player's creativity is encouraged by Gaijin, they adopts camouflage and even vehicle model made by players. Also it's funny to see a level 17 player say there's nothing useful on it, I'm pretty sure you don't even know you can login you Gaijin account in WT live in order to see more content and you have never tried to customize this game. Btw, the ULQ problem has already been solved a long time ago. Your video is outdated and shallow, which is something bad for a game channel. Please do more research before doing such topics.
Correction warthunder has well over 2000 vehicles. World of tanks doesn't even come close to war thunder. Every thing matters in warthunder . From ammo to angle of the armor . To armor thickness. No health bar. Warthunder is more realistic.
My grip with war thunder is the whole UI thing and clutterness that it feels driving a tank and shot , however once you start figuring out and ignore some of the clutterness is really fun and rewarding , i still have some issues with the planes in ground battles , well cant have it all i guess , i play both games and whatever my mood is , i just have fun in both.
It’s great that you’ve found a way to enjoy both games despite their quirks. Finding fun in both, depending on your mood, is a wonderful approach to gaming.
issue with UI persists only for players from WoT, because they adapted to UI from WoT, and they need to relearn new game UI. new player in WT learn from scratch, and it is okish UI for this type of players, moreover, if WT player go to WoT - he will be lost in all of this icons and menus from WoT
@Thakkii UI design can be a subjective experience, with some players adapting more quickly than others. It's good to hear that it's not a deal-breaker for you and that you can adjust to it over time. Continuous play often makes us more comfortable with various game aspects, including the UI.
I have a saying: WT is hard,WOT is complex. WT is a skill game,WOT is a slot machine game beacouse you have RNG at:shooting,+- 25% at penetration,and damage.
In War Thunder, the premium account is less expensive and gives way more useful advantages like +100% credits and + 50% exp but this is not necessary to get your final line up as you earn credits even with a bad game. In WoT, you HAVE to get a premium account to assure you a profitable game even if you don't use premium ammunition at tier 7 minimum. But the premium account is more expensive and gives you less credits (50%).
In wot you can get premium for free just by playing from wot pass, events, missions, codes or even watching their twitch. I have more then 10k battles and NEVER bought premium. And also premium gives you way more exp, credits, special missions. Also on wot you can grind best tier in a week and have lot of fun from that tank, in wt you won't even get to best tank in more then 500 hours
@pekorr1932 That’s a fantastic point about World of Tanks! It’s great to see that WOT offers so many ways to earn premium time and rewards just by playing the game and participating in events. It definitely makes it more accessible for players who don’t want to spend real money. And yeah, the progression speed in WOT compared to War Thunder is a big difference-being able to reach high-tier tanks relatively quickly is a huge plus for those who want to enjoy the best the game has to offer without an endless grind. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I was a Beta tester of both games, also Armored Warfare. At first it was WoT for tanks, and WT for planes. Only started playing tanks in WT around Feb last year, because i was over how WoT has become a very much Pay to Play game. So i really got into WT Ground Forces. I still have both games installed. And play one over the other when one starts annoying me in some way. Whether I'm going to play it or not, I still do my daily log in with WT. I tend to get a bit competitive, and when things start getting to me, I move over to the other game. Because I've started playing WT more hard core, when i cross over to Wot, I am less upset when things aren't going my way, so much so, I'm now playing arty more often than not. Anyway, enough ranting. Great video. I've subbed because i like what you're doing.
It sounds like you've got a solid strategy for managing your gaming experience across different titles! It's great to hear you're enjoying both WoT and WT, especially with the flexibility to switch based on your mood and game dynamics. Thanks for the subscription and for sharing your thoughts-it really helps keep the content relevant and engaging!
World of tanks players calling it "realistic" becuse they have tanks from the real world would break down into tears if they played war thunder. I've also heard some of them say that the grind is really hard, again same thing. If they played war thunder, their spines would crumple.
@@MidGame Yeah, I've played both and origionally when I played WoT at a friend's house I thought it was pretty realistic. Then a few months ago I got war thunder and it blew WoT out of the water. Overall, they're both fun. It just depends on what you want to play as you said in the video.
I don't think that a single WoT player ever calls WoT a realistic game. Or if some do, then they are just monkeys. Games are just too different. Only common thing is the tanks.
@@CinnaminiMax I guess they didn't know the game well enough, or what realism is, to not call them monkeys. Anyway, very different games, just depends on preferences.
I played wot for 10 years and switched to warthunder. Warthunder is in every way better and makes more fun overall!. World of tanks is arcade ... that's all.
I was former wot grinder, playing for almost 2 year stay on mid tier tank until I'm quiting because working. And from 2020 i comeback for that game wot and i tried warthunder too. I become so bored playing wot because warthunder give me so many options to play, ground as anti air, spg, tank destroy, atgm, and many more when wot only give me SPG thing and rest are okay. In warthunder you can also use aircraft, bombing having dogfight and many else. Yes warthunder is having more options to play, both grind are so much pain but i rather grinding better game with lot of options
I really hope noone took this seriously 11:37 for both games. Warthunder, you push low level tanks to give them a fe3l that there be8ng ignolaged. It fun ngl
I don’t understand why there are so many hateful comments on this video, this person put a lot of effort into this and he just gets bashed for it, great video and I learned alot!
there are so many things wrong on this video ... So , from the variety of vehicles , someone in the comments already pointed out , on war thunder there is not only 800 vehicles there are over 1.9k vehicles in the game BUT remember that they include premium , event , and tanks that you can't get anymore . and yes there is alot of variety on war thunder in any gamemode as other person pointed out too . About the gamemodes , people usualy stay on realistic for both air and ground battles , and for ships varies on realistic and arcade personaly ive almost never found a realistic ship match tho and if you look for a ship game go for world of warships its much better. For the pve gamemodes you don't see many people playing those too , and for the custom games , the video points the "toxicity" that the players have on this gamemode but in reality the toxicity of the game is on the realistic gamemodes for both air and ground battles , custom games your going to mess around and using low tier tanks is something common on the comunity for joking around . About the leveling speed your grind on war thunder is MUCH longer then on world of tanks and thats what makes you need premium to get to toptier , researching 6 vehicles per tier is what makes the grind much slower then on world of tanks so if you don't want to spent a money on the game and reach toptier go for world of tanks . An topic he didn't mention is how much it costs each thing in each game with world of tanks going to 150-200 of my local currency (probaly from 55-70 dollars) and for war thunder goes up to 200 of my local currency (about 70 dollars) but world of tanks premiums are much worse then war thunder ones simply because a top tier premium on war thunder can be used to get all vehicles from that line with alot of efficiency but on world of tanks the tank xp gets stuck on it if you don't spend gold to get it out of the vehicle and become a free xp . And to finish about the mods , war thunder mod page is official . And yes you can mod sounds because there is crew sounds in the game just like in world of tanks .
Thank you for your detailed feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to point out various aspects of War Thunder and World of Tanks that I might have missed or inaccurately represented. Let’s address each of your points in detail to provide a comprehensive response. Vehicle Variety and Count You’re absolutely right about the number of vehicles in War Thunder. As of now, there are indeed over 1,900 vehicles in the game, including premium, event-specific, and historically rare tanks that are no longer available. This extensive variety certainly adds to the richness of the gameplay experience across different modes. Gamemodes and Player Preferences Regarding the gamemodes, it’s true that the majority of players gravitate towards realistic modes for both air and ground battles due to the immersive and challenging experience they offer. Ship battles, however, seem to be more of a mixed bag with players divided between realistic and arcade modes. As you mentioned, finding a realistic ship match can be quite rare, and for those specifically interested in naval warfare, World of Warships might indeed be a better alternative due to its dedicated focus on naval combat. PVE Gamemodes and Custom Games The PVE gamemodes in War Thunder don’t seem to attract a large player base, which might be a missed opportunity for those looking for cooperative experiences. The custom games are often highlighted for their community-driven fun, where players can experiment and joke around with low-tier tanks. This aspect of the community can be quite enjoyable and contrasts with the more competitive and sometimes toxic atmosphere found in realistic gamemodes for air and ground battles. Grinding and Leveling Speed The grind in War Thunder is notorious for being long and arduous, particularly because you have to research multiple vehicles per tier. This significantly slows down progression compared to World of Tanks, where the grind is somewhat less intense. This makes premium accounts and vehicles almost a necessity for those aiming to reach top-tier levels in a reasonable time frame. For players unwilling or unable to spend money, World of Tanks might offer a slightly more forgiving progression system. Cost of Premium Content The cost of premium content in both games is quite high, with both games having items that can cost up to 200 of your local currency, which is around $70. However, the value proposition differs: War Thunder’s premium vehicles can efficiently help you progress through a particular vehicle line, whereas in World of Tanks, the experience gained from premium tanks often gets locked to that vehicle unless you spend additional gold to convert it to free experience. This makes War Thunder’s premium vehicles potentially more valuable for progression. Mods and Customization War Thunder does have an official mod page, allowing for sound and other modifications, much like World of Tanks. This flexibility can enhance the gaming experience, offering players the ability to customize their game to a greater extent. Thank you again for your comprehensive feedback. Your insights help paint a fuller picture of the differences and nuances between War Thunder and World of Tanks. If there are any other points you think I should address or further clarify, please let me know!
11:53 now why are you treating custom battles like some type of hell? In custom battles its actually kinda fun since the games are not really serious because you dont get a reward for killing someone custom battles is basically a mess that consists of 1. Top tier planes bullying everything 2. Top tier tanks playing, chatting and kidnapping low tier tanks like the M22 and L-3
War Thunder prides itself on historical accuracy, and kind of orients itself quite extensively around that idea but they still poke their head into non-historical “just for the fun” stuff. World of Tanks is the “what-if” of history to its extremes, with more “just for the fun” stuff in it too. Mirny-13 and the Last Waffenträger are examples, exploring quite outlandish what-ifs for player entertainment. Oh and the rigged RNG system too I guess. That’s there. War Thunder has the snail lol
Years ago i played wot but when i tried wt... it was fantastic, how can be satisfied to play a game about tanks with hp bars??!! Warthunder is realistic that is what makes a good game, has ballistics and can make you see how a round works like in real life is better in every aspect
15:00 well I disagree there was a LAN tournament in wot last year in China with pricepool of $150000. Also, wot has greater number of active players, you just included only EU server, not NA server, asian servers, chinese server… You will see 80k players during weekends on EU1 and another 80k on EU2 and another 80k on EU3 and EU4 with no problems. Biased comparision. Disliked.
While it's true that World of Tanks, World of Warships, and War Thunder offer different experiences and models (with War Thunder combining multiple types of combat into one game), it's understandable there can be strong opinions about each. However, each game has its own strengths and appeals to different preferences, making them unique in their own right.
Totally valid! WoT Naval Combat has a unique vibe. Late WW2 tech is definitely a sweet spot for many players. What’s your go-to ship or strategy there?
Pay to win is in both games, both games have greedy devs BUT atleast you can do something against premium vehicles in war thunder, where in world of tanks you most of the time cant win against them.
For WT looking at the Marketplace and showing the Leo 2AV saying that you can research everything with it which is factualy incorrect. There is a big difference between Event vehicles and Premium vehicles, just bcs the vehicle is on the right side tech tree it doesnt mean it can research all the stuff.
Thanks for catching that! You’re absolutely right-there is a significant difference between Event vehicles and Premium vehicles in War Thunder, and I should have been clearer on that distinction. I appreciate you pointing out the inaccuracy regarding the Leo 2AV, as I certainly don’t want to spread misleading information. While Premium vehicles can indeed help with research efficiency, Event vehicles often come with more limited functionality. Just being placed on the right side of the tech tree can be misleading since not every vehicle can unlock or research everything. I’ll make sure to be more careful in future content when discussing tech trees and vehicle types, and I’ll provide clearer explanations for new players navigating these mechanics. Thanks again for your insight-it really adds value to the conversation and ensures that future videos will be more precise!
@@MidGame yep, just wanted to point it out as i my self am well awear how new players keep thinking that if its on the right side its premium even tho it can also be Squadron or Event. I just wanted to point it out, best regards.
@paranparanovic3923 Thank you for pointing that out! It's a helpful observation, and I'll be sure to clarify this in future content to assist new players. Best regards!
Played WOT long time ago, its just not realistic, tank behind bushes goes into stealthy mode which i didnt liked. Most of the tanks go like 70kmph , like a go-kart. So i went for WT tanks and i never went back... Just pick what you prefer, realism (wt) or fun gocart (wot)
Yo! Totally feel you on the realism. War Thunder's tanks feel like BEASTS, not lawnmowers hiding in bushes! Those high speeds in WOT are fun for a bit, but where's the challenge? Give me real ballistics and strategy any day! That said, gotta respect the WOT Blitz grind! Nothing wrong with some quick, arcadey tank brawls to blow off steam. Maybe next time you can whoop some butt in Blitz with the knowledge you got from mastering War Thunder?
Wait what you like wot graphics more? I think you did not setup the graphics correctly since you set up in the launcher and in the game too. I played both and its night and day with war thunder being way superior
Both War Thunder and World of Tanks suffer with one aspect. Strategy. The maps are too small for real maneuvering and there is no voice chat to communicate with other players quick enough. The VERY old game T-34 vs Tiger is what these games should have aspired to be like.
That’s a great point! Both games have their strengths, but expanding map size and adding more real-time communication would definitely enhance the strategic depth. T-34 vs Tiger is a classic-here’s hoping for similar innovations in modern games!
I played 2015-2021 WoT 2022-2024 WT 2025+ WoT so I can confidently say my opinions about both games. In WT it takes wayyyyyy longer to unlock vehicles; in WoT you can get a tier 6 from tier 1 in 2-4 hours depending if you have premium acc and use boosters but in WT it takes 10h+ to get to rank 3 and yes I know that in a rank there are multiple tanks but if you want one tank you need to grind the whole tech tree unlike in WoT where you can gring one branch. In my opinion both are very good games but I prefer WoT since I play and enjoy it a lot more (350h in WT and 1000h-1500h in WoT)
getting better tanks takes so long once you get to a certain tier. for me, it me 3 years just to get to tier 7 in wot ma (not including premium tanks).
Man literally only play tier 2 tanks and said that's the majority of the game when tier 2 is just a shooting arcade, he didn't acknowledge how fast to think u have to be in world of tanks once u get to high tier nor the complexity of the WoT mechanics such as Stun, equipment, and battle techniques, as none of those apply at low tier
@MidGame thx man, it's just it did feel a bit underrepresented. And the sounds in high tier are just on point especially if u have good bass in ur sound system
@Fredabawls You’re welcome! I get what you mean-some aspects can definitely feel underrepresented. But you’re spot on about the high-tier sounds; with a good sound system, it really adds a whole new level of immersion to the experience. It’s those little details that make it so much more enjoyable. Thanks for your input!
usually in wot the game starts and 12 of the 15 players on the team all go to one flank and its a loss.. I have played wot for like 6 years but just started playing wt last month..
For wot. If you know Russian, go for Lesta servers. (Better grind experience) If you have a console, go for WoT console. (it has modern vehicles, usable mg, atgm, and rocket tonks but lack monthly gamemodes and hd graphic) The global is a pain in the ass to grind, still fun to play the gamemodes tho. For wt. Pray and feed the snail daily but don't fall for the vehicle packs trap. That's should be enough. 😂 Oh yeah, if you hate CAS, be CAS yourself.
Haha, sounds like you’ve got the strategy all figured out! If WoT isn’t punishing enough, just switch to the Lesta servers for a fresh grindfest, or better yet, hop on a console for some modern vehicles with a side of mediocre graphics. And for War Thunder, just remember to keep the snail well-fed, or better yet, become the CAS terror you despise! Honestly, it’s great advice-if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em, right?
Having played both, I honestly miss playing WoT. I had a LOT of fun in it. War Thunder is more like gambling. It is an addiction I can't seem to get out of, specially now that I have put some real money into it. It is so realistic, that getting to master it feels like a reward itself. WoT is def my go-to if I simply want to drive a tank. Oh and War Thunder is special because of air battles. They are tedious, but once you master them, you feel accomplished.
In wot you can't grind a tech tree with a premium tank, it's only for money. In WT you can, as long at it's not an only event vehicle wich is not premium (some are)
the problem is with all these reviews is that reviewers haven't played both for at least a year... or usually fan of one or another so being biased.. therefore as my opinion is relevant here I declare both games to - avoid, never touch any of them except if you turn 40, singleplayer games don't excite you, little too slow reactions for fast paced games then it's a good place to settle, find a company/clan and have thousands of hours go fly by..
Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that personal biases and limited playtime can affect the quality of reviews. I strive to provide a balanced view based on extensive gameplay experience and objective analysis. While I respect your decision to avoid these games, it's also worth noting that many players find community and long-term enjoyment in them, especially within clans or groups that enhance the social and strategic aspects of gameplay. I appreciate your honest feedback and will continue to ensure that my reviews and guides are as unbiased and thorough as possible, catering to both seasoned players and newcomers. Thank you for contributing to the discussion!
this guy give too much attention to Commentors, even that am not subscribed, every comment of mine have been replied by him, I respect it dude . +1 subscriber
Two different eras, ATGM's, rockets, different shell types, different spotting mechanics between game modes... all in WoT, all missed out in this video.
18:52 i don't understand that sound comp? At least choose same gun and same tank...in that WT u have at least 75mm gun, against 20mm machine gun which is in WoT clip... Surely not rooting for WT xD
Haha, fair point! Comparing tanks with such different setups isn’t exactly balanced. I’ll make sure future clips are more comparable-thanks for the feedback!
18:56 I'm sorry but the sound comparison u gave was horrendous, u picked the smallest tanks with the smallest huns for WoT and a pretty heavy duty engine and gun sound for WT, when you play higher up the gun sounds are way better than tier 2, should've picked a tier 6-10 tank
sry but you can download costum skin for war thunderalso wot more forgiveble?? shure with just 1 tank per round and premium ammo that add 30% damage sure it is harder to make mone in WoT i gave up because repair cost and cost for standar ammo was to high if you play for free WoT is 1000% pay to win with premium ammo premium add ons you have only a hand full of slot for tanks for all nation in WT every nation has it own slots for tank panles boots ship helicopters in WT you dont nned to buy a garage to storte your stuff or buy room for you crew like in WoT in WoT if you run out of storage for you tank you must sell them same for unlockd times in WT you keep what you unlock and that te biggst + for WT
@paranoid9678 Thank you for your detailed comparison between War Thunder (WT) and World of Tanks (WoT). You've raised several valid points about the advantages and disadvantages of both games. Custom Skins in WT: Indeed, the ability to download custom skins adds a personal touch to the game, enhancing the player's experience. Premium Ammo and Pay-to-Win in WoT: The premium ammo and add-ons in WoT can certainly create a pay-to-win environment, making it challenging for free-to-play players. The economic model in WoT, with high repair and ammo costs, can be discouraging for many. Slot Limitations: The limited slots for tanks in WoT can be a significant drawback, especially when compared to WT, where each nation has its own slots for various vehicles, providing more flexibility. Storage and Crew Management: WT's approach to storage and crew management is indeed more user-friendly. Not having to buy a garage or room for your crew simplifies the gameplay experience, making it more accessible. Your insights highlight important considerations for players choosing between these games. While WoT has its strengths, it's clear that WT offers a more forgiving and player-friendly environment, particularly for those who prefer a less restrictive and more varied gameplay experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and adding to the conversation!
Thanks for the good comparison and the high quality of the Video. 👍🏻 I play both games but i would rather prefer War Thunder. In War Thunder you have modern vehicles like Abrams, Leopard 2, Merkava etc, That makes the game for me more interesting. Tanks also feels more realistic. But overall i like both games.
Appreciating the nuances of both games shows a deep understanding and passion for gaming. It’s great that War Thunder’s realism and modern vehicles add so much to your experience. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
War Thunder: A Deeper, More Immersive Tank Experience Trust me, if you're tired of the same old tank battles, War Thunder is the game for you. It's like stepping back in time, but with all the modern gaming thrills. Here's why War Thunder is miles ahead: * Historical Accuracy: Every tank, plane, and ship is meticulously modeled based on real-world blueprints. It's like a virtual history lesson, but with explosions and dogfights. * Realistic Physics: Feel the weight of your vehicle as you maneuver across the battlefield. Every shot counts, and every hit has a significant impact. * Diverse Game Modes: From historical battles to arcade-style mayhem, there's something for everyone. You can even take to the skies for intense air battles or command naval vessels. * Community and Progression: Join a clan, team up with friends, and climb the ranks together. The progression system is rewarding, and there's always something new to unlock. Imagine piloting a Spitfire through a dogfight, the wind whipping through your hair as you weave between enemy fighters. Or commanding a Sherman tank, leading your squad into battle against a Tiger. It's an experience you won't find anywhere else. So, what are you waiting for? Give War Thunder a try. I promise you won't be disappointed.
as a kid who plays warthunder and world of tanks, i can say that warthunder is better as it has mor realism and a wider variety of nations to reasearch
in my opinion, my favourite natione for low tier grinding is america as they have very balanced tanks and from rank 5 and above is definitely israel as they have OP tanks and skip reserve to rank 8
@kAI-o7o8s Great choices! American low-tier tanks are indeed well-rounded and forgiving for beginners, making them perfect for grinding. As for Israel, their high-tier lineup is fantastic-skipping reserve and jumping to rank 8 is a huge advantage. It’s always exciting to use their powerful tanks. Do you have a favorite tank from either nation?
Just started playing War Thunder a few weeks back. Played WoT for years...I like War Thunder a lot better for one reason only, my shots go where I point, if I miss it's my fault not cuz RNG said a big fat NO 5 times in a row when I try to snipe other tanks' cupola or a tank is in open and I miss just cuz rng. Another thing is premium tanks, so far in War Thunder I haven't met any premium tank that would stand out for being OP like in WoT where some premium tanks are god-tier ( yes I'm looking at BZ 176 ). Another thing I noticed is how modifications work. When I get a new tier tank in WoT it will be horrible at the start, most of the time less powerful than the previous tier tank and you have to painfully grind a better gun, and better armor it's a pain since you will be pit against 1 or two tiers higher tanks and when you unlock new tank, you will be most of the time useless, unless you get into matches where you meet lower tiers than yourself. In War Thunder modifications help, give an advantage but that's all...In my new tank that I just got I can still destroy others and never had in the back of my mind ohh I won't be able to do a damn thing against others since I got the crappy gun. Don't get me wrong WoT is still fun to play, It's just a very arcade game and many things are just RNG
Thank you for sharing your experiences with War Thunder and World of Tanks. It's always insightful to hear from players who have extensive experience with both games. Let's delve into the key aspects you highlighted. Accuracy and RNG One of the main frustrations with World of Tanks is indeed the RNG (Random Number Generator) factor, which can make aiming and shooting feel inconsistent. In War Thunder, the shots generally go where you aim, which adds a layer of skill and predictability to the combat. This is a significant advantage for players who prefer a more skill-based approach to tank battles. Premium Tanks Your point about premium tanks is very valid. In World of Tanks, some premium tanks can feel overpowered, such as the BZ 176 you mentioned. This can create a sense of imbalance and frustration, especially for players who do not spend money on the game. In contrast, War Thunder’s premium tanks, while still advantageous, do not generally feel as overpowering. This helps maintain a more balanced playing field, where premium vehicles offer benefits without completely overshadowing regular tanks. Modifications and Vehicle Progression The modification system in War Thunder is another area where it shines compared to World of Tanks. When you acquire a new tank in War Thunder, it’s functional and competitive right out of the gate, even though modifications can further enhance its performance. In World of Tanks, a new tier tank often feels underpowered until you grind through upgrades, which can be a frustrating experience, especially when facing higher-tier opponents. Realism vs. Arcade The realism in War Thunder, as you pointed out, provides a rewarding experience once mastered. The game’s design focuses on providing a realistic simulation, which can be both challenging and satisfying. World of Tanks, on the other hand, offers a more arcade-like experience, which can be fun but sometimes feels less rewarding due to the heavy reliance on RNG. Overall Enjoyment It's great to hear that you’re enjoying War Thunder more due to these factors. Both games have their unique strengths and cater to different playstyles. War Thunder’s emphasis on skill and realism, along with a more balanced approach to premium content and vehicle progression, seems to be the key reasons for your preference. Thank you again for sharing your detailed thoughts. It's valuable to hear from players with diverse experiences, and your insights help others make informed decisions about which game might suit them best. If you have any more observations or tips, feel free to share!
War thunder: we have planes, tanks, ships, | world of tanks: nah we have more tanks | cured tanks sim: artillerys, fast ahh tanks, tank boat, A-10 war-hog, helicopters, over kill, nuke, FREEDOM, mgs, 1-12, custom servers, ww1, ww2, agf war, some historic tanks, scouts, x-ray, diffrent tanks, almost everything.
Honestly i find that both of them have much a different begginer experience, in WT you get a more realistic grip and in WoT you get more thrill and overall faster first gameplay, and it really seems you just judged WoT so wrong, like you completely threw away all the builds, equipment, set-ups, types of gameplay, and a ton of mechanics you did not consider. Then you got the part were you said the community is toxic, it is, no way i'm defending that, but sadly when you said other players blame your for "playing defensively" you're just wrong and they're right, there's no "playing defensively" in WoT really, but people sadly found a way to call sitting in one spot for the whole game "playing devensively", i'm really assuming you were sitting in a frozen flank behind a wall waiting for something to happen (correct me if i'm wrong), that's just bad, freezing yourself in a stalemate is the dumbest thing you can do, you are making yourself useless and then getting no damage, then the enemy team just breaks the other side of the map because you and some other people are missing and boom, you lose, no money earned, no experience earned, and the game sucked. Oh and there's also custom battles in wot, where the same thing happens, high tier bullying low tier.
You’ve shared a really insightful perspective, and I appreciate the detailed feedback-it gives me a lot to think about! First off, I completely agree with you that War Thunder (WT) and World of Tanks (WoT) offer vastly different beginner experiences. WT indeed leans into realism, with mechanics like no health bars and one-shot kills creating a truly immersive war simulation. On the other hand, WoT offers a more fast-paced, arcade-style thrill that can be easier for beginners to pick up and enjoy right away. Both approaches have their strengths, and it’s great to see how they cater to different preferences. As for my comments on WoT, I can see where I might have fallen short in fully appreciating the depth of gameplay mechanics like builds, equipment, and setups. WoT does have a lot to offer once you dive deeper into its systems. Your point about “playing defensively” is also well-taken. Sitting in one spot waiting for something to happen can definitely backfire in WoT. You’re right that it often leads to stagnation and puts the team at a disadvantage, especially if key positions on the map are left undefended. I might have misinterpreted the situation, so thank you for clarifying this aspect. And yes, toxicity in the community is an unfortunate reality in both games, but it’s good to see players like you calling out bad habits and encouraging better gameplay practices. Custom battles and high-tier bullying in WoT are definitely areas that could use improvement, but they also reflect the challenges of balancing such a diverse player base. Your comment has reminded me how important it is to approach these comparisons with a balanced view, considering both strengths and weaknesses. I hope this helps clarify my perspective, and I’d love to hear more about your experiences with both games!

Its evident that the developers are competing for the same audience of players, just by the presence of more or less the same sets of bonuses.
The competition among developers to attract players is fierce, and the similarities in bonuses reflect that.
Comparing WoT to WT is kinda like comparing Fortnite to Arma 3
An interesting analogy! World of Tanks and War Thunder, like Fortnite and Arma 3, cater to different tastes within the same genre, offering varying levels of realism and gameplay styles. It's all about what each player is looking for in a game.

I recently retired and finding lots of time on my hands, and a good internet provider, I thought I would try video games. Having had a career in the Air Force and a degree in history I was interested in military-based games. From a Facebook ad I looked into World of Tanks and started playing. Got to Tier 8 but could not go any further because of $$$. In fact, I was losing $$ regularly at Tier 4 and the fact that these tanks only represented their real-life counterparts in appearance only turned me off to the game. Tried War Thunder and the realism bowled me over. Sorry, there may be problems at times with the mechanics at WT, but this is a much better game. But I want the immersion. I want the history. I want the physics. And the adrenaline rush you get when you one-shot an opponent cannot be equaled in World of Tanks.
Try Enlisted or hell let loose also. ✌🏻
@user-br3ix5mq9g Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear how much you enjoy the realism and historical accuracy in War Thunder. It sounds like a perfect match for your interests.
think you use the gold ammo it is on key number 2 that shh is made to drain money! And the premium stuf like ration for crew and the large repair kit and stuf like that! To make the ingame curency you have to use the ammo on 1 and 3 with tanks and use the small stuf like the small repair kit that is 3k not 20k like the rest
@HopeAndPrei You’re right! Gold ammo and premium consumables in World of Tanks can definitely feel like a money sink if you’re not careful. Using standard ammo and lower-cost consumables is a great way to manage in-game currency more efficiently. It’s all about balancing your loadout to maximize effectiveness without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing these tips-very helpful for players trying to manage their resources better!
@@MidGame you see how they sink 20k for 1 premium consumable if you us 3 that is 60 k add that to a defeat where the cost of the repair of the tank is more then that batte... oo that stuf is made to make you pay. And as long as there will be those that will pay they will keep it!
I think comparing realistic and rpg games are bad idea
That's a valid point. Each genre offers a different gaming experience and appeals to different types of players. It's important to evaluate games based on their own merits and the unique experiences they offer.
that's the point of the comparison. realistic is an RPG, because it is not real life it's still a role-playing as if it was real
@grok8211 You make an interesting point about realism in games. Even the most realistic games are still forms of role-playing, where players get to experience scenarios and roles that simulate real-life events or historical periods, albeit within a structured set of rules and environments. This blend of realism and role-playing elements is what makes such games appealing to many players, providing both an escape and a way to engage with complex scenarios and strategies.
when you see this word (Versus) it means whos better, or whos the best.. wot is better, no matter what.. just.. this guy made this video because theres better between a and b.. ofcourse wot better, versus is talking about quality
@@cadstol123 That's highly subjective. Personally, I find WoT to be dogshit compared to WT.
I recently started playing World of Tanks (before that I played World of Tanks Blitz, and I still play) and I play War Thunder, and I don’t understand why people argue which game is better, each one has something cool.
Players War Thunder World of Tanks is criticized because there are tanks there that have HP, although War Thunder is also very bad in terms of realism. As for me, all games are equally cool
That's a great perspective! Both World of Tanks and War Thunder offer unique experiences, and it's more about personal preference than one being objectively better than the other.
Yeah, one gives you aneurism, the other gives you cancer. Both very cool!
Funny enough the Blitz version imo is better than the actual WoT
As a former World of Tank player in 2017 and then a War Thunder player until now, I can say that the World of Tank game is too boring and linear because it keeps repeating battles with the same scenarios and is not much different. I think it's better for me to play Counter Strike than World of tanks, but in war thunder I can explore many things because it uses a complex mechanic and respawn system which makes players more alert and careful with their surroundings and there are also plane, ship, tank modes and many unique weapon systems that make the gameplay of this game very wide.
It's interesting to hear your perspective on the gameplay differences between World of Tanks and War Thunder. War Thunder's diversity in vehicles and gameplay mechanics indeed offers a broad experience. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
3:35 there are also strike and naval planes, but bomber fuses together with strike aircraft in higher tiers and naval can be anything as long as the plane was meant to fly for the navy of any nation(boat launched for example)
7:00 Realistic is a different category from Arcade and Sim its inbetween, it doesnt have the penetration indicator like in Arcade and with Ground Realistic Battles you can bring your own planes
Simulator battles are not "in between", they're like RB except there are no markers at all (including friendly vehicles) and no third person perspective.

WoT : Unrealistic and you may suffer playing it
WT : you are here to suffer yourself in every realistic possible way
That’s a fair comparison! Both games offer unique experiences-depends on what you’re in the mood for.
The only what I hated in War Thunder is their physics. I'm not talking about the speed of the tanks, but the physics itself sometimes you get stuck all the time by the small rock.
War Thunder's physics can indeed be tricky at times. Hopefully, future updates will address these issues.
Absolutely TRUE. I have this issue once per log in 🤮
That was pretty common 5+ years ago but happens pretty rare there days. My issue is a street sign sometimes bouncing a 400mm pen AP shell.
but every one can still agree that War Thunder has the best physics, right?
This, when in 2018 I wanted to start a tank game I tried out both and getting stuck to tiny rocks and other objects eventually gravitated me fully towards WoT
I wanted to thank you for bringing back the comparison section))
You're welcome! I'm glad the comparison section is back and providing value.
War Thunder is Blood and Tears...
It can be tough but oh so rewarding!
War thunder live is officially owned by war thunder, it's not a 'third party site', player's creativity is encouraged by Gaijin, they adopts camouflage and even vehicle model made by players. Also it's funny to see a level 17 player say there's nothing useful on it, I'm pretty sure you don't even know you can login you Gaijin account in WT live in order to see more content and you have never tried to customize this game. Btw, the ULQ problem has already been solved a long time ago. Your video is outdated and shallow, which is something bad for a game channel. Please do more research before doing such topics.
Thanks for the detailed feedback! I'll keep that in mind for future comparisons.
Correction warthunder has well over 2000 vehicles. World of tanks doesn't even come close to war thunder. Every thing matters in warthunder . From ammo to angle of the armor . To armor thickness. No health bar. Warthunder is more realistic.
Thanks for the detailed comparison! War Thunder certainly offers a deep and realistic experience.
Its good that there are bonuses in both games, you can test both games purely).
Testing both games gives you a fuller perspective. I'm glad the bonuses could aid in your exploration.

My grip with war thunder is the whole UI thing and clutterness that it feels driving a tank and shot , however once you start figuring out and ignore some of the clutterness is really fun and rewarding , i still have some issues with the planes in ground battles , well cant have it all i guess , i play both games and whatever my mood is , i just have fun in both.
It’s great that you’ve found a way to enjoy both games despite their quirks. Finding fun in both, depending on your mood, is a wonderful approach to gaming.
issue with UI persists only for players from WoT, because they adapted to UI from WoT, and they need to relearn new game UI. new player in WT learn from scratch, and it is okish UI for this type of players, moreover, if WT player go to WoT - he will be lost in all of this icons and menus from WoT
@@IEagleoneI Ye i can agree with that , but tbh the UI is not a major issue is just something i can get used to it overtime
@Thakkii UI design can be a subjective experience, with some players adapting more quickly than others. It's good to hear that it's not a deal-breaker for you and that you can adjust to it over time. Continuous play often makes us more comfortable with various game aspects, including the UI.
Why to is the production quality of this video so high? I was not expecting this with the amount of views it has.
High production quality regardless of views is my standard. Glad it exceeded your expectations!
I have a saying: WT is hard,WOT is complex. WT is a skill game,WOT is a slot machine game beacouse you have RNG at:shooting,+- 25% at penetration,and damage.
Interesting perspective! Both games have their own unique mechanics that cater to different playstyles. Thanks for sharing!
In War Thunder, the premium account is less expensive and gives way more useful advantages like +100% credits and + 50% exp but this is not necessary to get your final line up as you earn credits even with a bad game. In WoT, you HAVE to get a premium account to assure you a profitable game even if you don't use premium ammunition at tier 7 minimum. But the premium account is more expensive and gives you less credits (50%).
It’s interesting to compare the premium benefits between the two games. Each has its own system and balance.
In wot you can get premium for free just by playing from wot pass, events, missions, codes or even watching their twitch. I have more then 10k battles and NEVER bought premium. And also premium gives you way more exp, credits, special missions. Also on wot you can grind best tier in a week and have lot of fun from that tank, in wt you won't even get to best tank in more then 500 hours
@pekorr1932 That’s a fantastic point about World of Tanks! It’s great to see that WOT offers so many ways to earn premium time and rewards just by playing the game and participating in events. It definitely makes it more accessible for players who don’t want to spend real money. And yeah, the progression speed in WOT compared to War Thunder is a big difference-being able to reach high-tier tanks relatively quickly is a huge plus for those who want to enjoy the best the game has to offer without an endless grind. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I was a Beta tester of both games, also Armored Warfare.
At first it was WoT for tanks, and WT for planes. Only started playing tanks in WT around Feb last year, because i was over how WoT has become a very much Pay to Play game. So i really got into WT Ground Forces. I still have both games installed. And play one over the other when one starts annoying me in some way. Whether I'm going to play it or not, I still do my daily log in with WT.
I tend to get a bit competitive, and when things start getting to me, I move over to the other game. Because I've started playing WT more hard core, when i cross over to Wot, I am less upset when things aren't going my way, so much so, I'm now playing arty more often than not.
Anyway, enough ranting. Great video.
I've subbed because i like what you're doing.
It sounds like you've got a solid strategy for managing your gaming experience across different titles! It's great to hear you're enjoying both WoT and WT, especially with the flexibility to switch based on your mood and game dynamics. Thanks for the subscription and for sharing your thoughts-it really helps keep the content relevant and engaging!
Wow, what a juicy comparison.
I'm glad the comparison was juicy and informative. Thanks for the feedback!
World of tanks players calling it "realistic" becuse they have tanks from the real world would break down into tears if they played war thunder. I've also heard some of them say that the grind is really hard, again same thing. If they played war thunder, their spines would crumple.
The realism debate is always intense! Both games offer unique challenges, that's for sure.
@@MidGame Yeah, I've played both and origionally when I played WoT at a friend's house I thought it was pretty realistic. Then a few months ago I got war thunder and it blew WoT out of the water. Overall, they're both fun. It just depends on what you want to play as you said in the video.
I don't think that a single WoT player ever calls WoT a realistic game. Or if some do, then they are just monkeys. Games are just too different. Only common thing is the tanks.

Noted! Let me know if there’s anything I can clarify better.
I don’t understand why there are so many hateful comments on this video, this person put a lot of effort into this and he just gets bashed for it, great video and I learned alot!
Thank you so much for the support! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Your positive feedback really motivates me to keep creating valuable content.
I don't hate this video, I just think it's inaccurate in a few places.
there are so many things wrong on this video ...
So , from the variety of vehicles , someone in the comments already pointed out , on war thunder there is not only 800 vehicles there are over 1.9k vehicles in the game BUT remember that they include premium , event , and tanks that you can't get anymore . and yes there is alot of variety on war thunder in any gamemode as other person pointed out too .
About the gamemodes , people usualy stay on realistic for both air and ground battles , and for ships varies on realistic and arcade personaly ive almost never found a realistic ship match tho and if you look for a ship game go for world of warships its much better.
For the pve gamemodes you don't see many people playing those too , and for the custom games , the video points the "toxicity" that the players have on this gamemode but in reality the toxicity of the game is on the realistic gamemodes for both air and ground battles , custom games your going to mess around and using low tier tanks is something common on the comunity for joking around .
About the leveling speed your grind on war thunder is MUCH longer then on world of tanks and thats what makes you need premium to get to toptier , researching 6 vehicles per tier is what makes the grind much slower then on world of tanks so if you don't want to spent a money on the game and reach toptier go for world of tanks .
An topic he didn't mention is how much it costs each thing in each game with world of tanks going to 150-200 of my local currency (probaly from 55-70 dollars) and for war thunder goes up to 200 of my local currency (about 70 dollars) but world of tanks premiums are much worse then war thunder ones simply because a top tier premium on war thunder can be used to get all vehicles from that line with alot of efficiency but on world of tanks the tank xp gets stuck on it if you don't spend gold to get it out of the vehicle and become a free xp .
And to finish about the mods , war thunder mod page is official .
And yes you can mod sounds because there is crew sounds in the game just like in world of tanks .
Thank you for your detailed feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to point out various aspects of War Thunder and World of Tanks that I might have missed or inaccurately represented. Let’s address each of your points in detail to provide a comprehensive response.
Vehicle Variety and Count
You’re absolutely right about the number of vehicles in War Thunder. As of now, there are indeed over 1,900 vehicles in the game, including premium, event-specific, and historically rare tanks that are no longer available. This extensive variety certainly adds to the richness of the gameplay experience across different modes.
Gamemodes and Player Preferences
Regarding the gamemodes, it’s true that the majority of players gravitate towards realistic modes for both air and ground battles due to the immersive and challenging experience they offer. Ship battles, however, seem to be more of a mixed bag with players divided between realistic and arcade modes. As you mentioned, finding a realistic ship match can be quite rare, and for those specifically interested in naval warfare, World of Warships might indeed be a better alternative due to its dedicated focus on naval combat.
PVE Gamemodes and Custom Games
The PVE gamemodes in War Thunder don’t seem to attract a large player base, which might be a missed opportunity for those looking for cooperative experiences. The custom games are often highlighted for their community-driven fun, where players can experiment and joke around with low-tier tanks. This aspect of the community can be quite enjoyable and contrasts with the more competitive and sometimes toxic atmosphere found in realistic gamemodes for air and ground battles.
Grinding and Leveling Speed
The grind in War Thunder is notorious for being long and arduous, particularly because you have to research multiple vehicles per tier. This significantly slows down progression compared to World of Tanks, where the grind is somewhat less intense. This makes premium accounts and vehicles almost a necessity for those aiming to reach top-tier levels in a reasonable time frame. For players unwilling or unable to spend money, World of Tanks might offer a slightly more forgiving progression system.
Cost of Premium Content
The cost of premium content in both games is quite high, with both games having items that can cost up to 200 of your local currency, which is around $70. However, the value proposition differs: War Thunder’s premium vehicles can efficiently help you progress through a particular vehicle line, whereas in World of Tanks, the experience gained from premium tanks often gets locked to that vehicle unless you spend additional gold to convert it to free experience. This makes War Thunder’s premium vehicles potentially more valuable for progression.
Mods and Customization
War Thunder does have an official mod page, allowing for sound and other modifications, much like World of Tanks. This flexibility can enhance the gaming experience, offering players the ability to customize their game to a greater extent.
Thank you again for your comprehensive feedback. Your insights help paint a fuller picture of the differences and nuances between War Thunder and World of Tanks. If there are any other points you think I should address or further clarify, please let me know!
It's HP bar, not XP bar.
Okay, thanks)
11:53 now why are you treating custom battles like some type of hell?
In custom battles its actually kinda fun since the games are not really serious because you dont get a reward for killing someone
custom battles is basically a mess that consists of
1. Top tier planes bullying everything
2. Top tier tanks playing, chatting and kidnapping low tier tanks like the M22 and L-3
Custom battles can be chaotic, but they definitely have their fun moments!
War Thunder prides itself on historical accuracy, and kind of orients itself quite extensively around that idea but they still poke their head into non-historical “just for the fun” stuff.
World of Tanks is the “what-if” of history to its extremes, with more “just for the fun” stuff in it too. Mirny-13 and the Last Waffenträger are examples, exploring quite outlandish what-ifs for player entertainment.
Oh and the rigged RNG system too I guess. That’s there. War Thunder has the snail lol
Great insight! Both games have their own charm for sure, and it’s cool to see all the different approaches.
Great approach to the comparison! Like.
I'm glad you liked the approach! Thanks for the support.
Years ago i played wot but when i tried wt... it was fantastic, how can be satisfied to play a game about tanks with hp bars??!! Warthunder is realistic that is what makes a good game, has ballistics and can make you see how a round works like in real life is better in every aspect
WT’s realism is definitely a huge draw for many players. Glad you found a game that resonates with you!

While it's true that World of Tanks, World of Warships, and War Thunder offer different experiences and models (with War Thunder combining multiple types of combat into one game), it's understandable there can be strong opinions about each. However, each game has its own strengths and appeals to different preferences, making them unique in their own right.
WoT Naval combat is more fun, and I prefer the late WW2 technology cut off.
Totally valid! WoT Naval Combat has a unique vibe. Late WW2 tech is definitely a sweet spot for many players. What’s your go-to ship or strategy there?
Pay to win is in both games, both games have greedy devs BUT atleast you can do something against premium vehicles in war thunder, where in world of tanks you most of the time cant win against them.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the games.
Blud is littearly comparing two TOTALLY different games in same tematics (war, tanks)
Comparing games can be tricky, but it's always interesting to see different perspectives. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
For WT looking at the Marketplace and showing the Leo 2AV saying that you can research everything with it which is factualy incorrect. There is a big difference between Event vehicles and Premium vehicles, just bcs the vehicle is on the right side tech tree it doesnt mean it can research all the stuff.
Thanks for catching that! You’re absolutely right-there is a significant difference between Event vehicles and Premium vehicles in War Thunder, and I should have been clearer on that distinction. I appreciate you pointing out the inaccuracy regarding the Leo 2AV, as I certainly don’t want to spread misleading information.
While Premium vehicles can indeed help with research efficiency, Event vehicles often come with more limited functionality. Just being placed on the right side of the tech tree can be misleading since not every vehicle can unlock or research everything. I’ll make sure to be more careful in future content when discussing tech trees and vehicle types, and I’ll provide clearer explanations for new players navigating these mechanics. Thanks again for your insight-it really adds value to the conversation and ensures that future videos will be more precise!
@@MidGame yep, just wanted to point it out as i my self am well awear how new players keep thinking that if its on the right side its premium even tho it can also be Squadron or Event. I just wanted to point it out, best regards.
@paranparanovic3923 Thank you for pointing that out! It's a helpful observation, and I'll be sure to clarify this in future content to assist new players. Best regards!
Is it necessary to select?
You can play both games )
2:24 the listed specs for wt are way to overpowered, I can run it pretty easily on a nvidia gt 730
It’s great to hear that you’re able to run WT smoothly on that setup! Thanks for sharing your experience.
i just don't get why people compare these games, like are you all stupid? the fact that it has tanks doesn't mean it's similar.
True, just because games have tanks doesn't mean they're the same. Each game has its own unique aspects!
@@MidGameyou fine a positive thing to say back to someone no matter how rude or sad or mean it is
Played WOT long time ago, its just not realistic, tank behind bushes goes into stealthy mode which i didnt liked. Most of the tanks go like 70kmph , like a go-kart. So i went for WT tanks and i never went back... Just pick what you prefer, realism (wt) or fun gocart (wot)
Yo! Totally feel you on the realism. War Thunder's tanks feel like BEASTS, not lawnmowers hiding in bushes! Those high speeds in WOT are fun for a bit, but where's the challenge? Give me real ballistics and strategy any day!
That said, gotta respect the WOT Blitz grind! Nothing wrong with some quick, arcadey tank brawls to blow off steam. Maybe next time you can whoop some butt in Blitz with the knowledge you got from mastering War Thunder?
14:30 man bruh just right click on the tank down the screen and then sell😂😂
😂😂😂😂
3:37 no theres fighters, bombers, interceptors, strike aircraft, frontline bombers, torpedo bombers, long range bombers and dive bombers
You’re absolutely right! Each class has its unique role and strategy. Thanks for pointing that out-it’s great to see someone who knows their stuff!
Wait what you like wot graphics more? I think you did not setup the graphics correctly since you set up in the launcher and in the game too. I played both and its night and day with war thunder being way superior
Thank you for sharing your perspective. Graphics preferences can be subjective, but I appreciate your input.
Both War Thunder and World of Tanks suffer with one aspect. Strategy. The maps are too small for real maneuvering and there is no voice chat to communicate with other players quick enough. The VERY old game T-34 vs Tiger is what these games should have aspired to be like.
That’s a great point! Both games have their strengths, but expanding map size and adding more real-time communication would definitely enhance the strategic depth. T-34 vs Tiger is a classic-here’s hoping for similar innovations in modern games!
I played
2015-2021 WoT
2022-2024 WT
2025+ WoT
so I can confidently say my opinions about both games. In WT it takes wayyyyyy longer to unlock vehicles; in WoT you can get a tier 6 from tier 1 in 2-4 hours depending if you have premium acc and use boosters but in WT it takes 10h+ to get to rank 3 and yes I know that in a rank there are multiple tanks but if you want one tank you need to grind the whole tech tree unlike in WoT where you can gring one branch. In my opinion both are very good games but I prefer WoT since I play and enjoy it a lot more (350h in WT and 1000h-1500h in WoT)
getting better tanks takes so long once you get to a certain tier. for me, it me 3 years just to get to tier 7 in wot ma (not including premium tanks).
That’s dedication! The grind can be tough, but reaching tier 7 is an achievement. What’s your favorite tank so far?
Health bars are not good for such games, so I choose War Thunder.
Choosing a game that suits your preferences is essential. War Thunder offers a unique experience compared to games with health bars.
bruh you confused hp bar with xp bar💀
Wow, thank you so much! I appreciate your support.
I always thought people could judge them immediately
Who is better for you?
Man literally only play tier 2 tanks and said that's the majority of the game when tier 2 is just a shooting arcade, he didn't acknowledge how fast to think u have to be in world of tanks once u get to high tier nor the complexity of the WoT mechanics such as Stun, equipment, and battle techniques, as none of those apply at low tier
You make a valid point. Higher tiers in World of Tanks do offer a more complex experience. I’ll aim to cover that in more depth in future content.
@MidGame thx man, it's just it did feel a bit underrepresented. And the sounds in high tier are just on point especially if u have good bass in ur sound system
@Fredabawls You’re welcome! I get what you mean-some aspects can definitely feel underrepresented. But you’re spot on about the high-tier sounds; with a good sound system, it really adds a whole new level of immersion to the experience. It’s those little details that make it so much more enjoyable. Thanks for your input!
There's secondary weapons in WoT, only specific vehicles have them
Which tanks have secondary weapons in WOT?
@@PIG8STUIPID
Look at console ver. Yes, the ASS version, just... I don't need to say much.
@@Mark3nd that is not WOT, still jealous of the graphic and canon view.
@Mark3nd And what about Pc version?
He is talking about pc version not console.
usually in wot the game starts and 12 of the 15 players on the team all go to one flank and its a loss.. I have played wot for like 6 years but just started playing wt last month..
That’s rough! The team dynamic can be tricky. Hope WT gives you a fresh challenge!
When I first tried world of tanks I thought it was a knockoff 💀💀💀
World of Tanks and War Thunder definitely have their differences. It’s all about finding the game that suits your style best.
Bruh 💀
For wot.
If you know Russian, go for Lesta servers. (Better grind experience)
If you have a console, go for WoT console. (it has modern vehicles, usable mg, atgm, and rocket tonks but lack monthly gamemodes and hd graphic)
The global is a pain in the ass to grind, still fun to play the gamemodes tho.
For wt.
Pray and feed the snail daily but don't fall for the vehicle packs trap. That's should be enough. 😂
Oh yeah, if you hate CAS, be CAS yourself.
Haha, sounds like you’ve got the strategy all figured out! If WoT isn’t punishing enough, just switch to the Lesta servers for a fresh grindfest, or better yet, hop on a console for some modern vehicles with a side of mediocre graphics. And for War Thunder, just remember to keep the snail well-fed, or better yet, become the CAS terror you despise! Honestly, it’s great advice-if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em, right?
labeled 2025 but this is from 10 months ago?!
Ah, you’ve caught me-I’m a time traveler!
Haven’t played WoT but I can say that WT is a lot of fun at the lower tiers, though the grind gets painful at tier 5 upwards
WT definitely shines in the lower tiers, but that grind can be tough. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Having played both, I honestly miss playing WoT. I had a LOT of fun in it. War Thunder is more like gambling. It is an addiction I can't seem to get out of, specially now that I have put some real money into it. It is so realistic, that getting to master it feels like a reward itself. WoT is def my go-to if I simply want to drive a tank.
Oh and War Thunder is special because of air battles. They are tedious, but once you master them, you feel accomplished.
It's great to hear about your experiences with both games. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
In wot you can't grind a tech tree with a premium tank, it's only for money. In WT you can, as long at it's not an only event vehicle wich is not premium (some are)
Good point! Each game has its unique mechanics when it comes to progression. Thanks for sharing this info!
the problem is with all these reviews is that reviewers haven't played both for at least a year... or usually fan of one or another so being biased..
therefore as my opinion is relevant here I declare both games to - avoid, never touch any of them except if you turn 40, singleplayer games don't excite you, little too slow reactions for fast paced games then it's a good place to settle, find a company/clan and have thousands of hours go fly by..
Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that personal biases and limited playtime can affect the quality of reviews. I strive to provide a balanced view based on extensive gameplay experience and objective analysis. While I respect your decision to avoid these games, it's also worth noting that many players find community and long-term enjoyment in them, especially within clans or groups that enhance the social and strategic aspects of gameplay.
I appreciate your honest feedback and will continue to ensure that my reviews and guides are as unbiased and thorough as possible, catering to both seasoned players and newcomers. Thank you for contributing to the discussion!

And where is Wot team?
4:50 invalid argument, War Thunder is worse cuz they have anime body pillows in their game
Haha, I guess it’s all about what you look for in a game. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
U know attackers and interceptors are different to bombers and fighter right bence wt has them aswell
Thanks for the clarification! I'll make sure to double-check that in future videos.
I play and enjoy both, but I kinda prefer WoT (probably because I've been playing it longer)
It's great that you enjoy both! Each game has its unique aspects that make them enjoyable.

Boosteroid's zero lag gameplay makes World of Tanks even more thrilling.
Absolutely!
Excuse me wtf 800 vehicles ? my statcard says 1038 and i dont own everything
Over 800 vehilces
Boosteroid's performance for World of Tanks is consistently excellent.
Couldn’t agree more
Two different eras, ATGM's, rockets, different shell types, different spotting mechanics between game modes... all in WoT, all missed out in this video.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll make sure to cover those aspects in more detail in future videos to give a more comprehensive guide.
18:52 i don't understand that sound comp? At least choose same gun and same tank...in that WT u have at least 75mm gun, against 20mm machine gun which is in WoT clip... Surely not rooting for WT xD
Haha, fair point! Comparing tanks with such different setups isn’t exactly balanced. I’ll make sure future clips are more comparable-thanks for the feedback!
Before I was playing wot but when I try wt I think is better
TO get bonuse you need download via my link

@user-wx2el5jy2t That's great. What vehicles do you have on your account?

Scrolls to the end of the video…
It’s up to you! What a surprise
PUBG )
18:56 I'm sorry but the sound comparison u gave was horrendous, u picked the smallest tanks with the smallest huns for WoT and a pretty heavy duty engine and gun sound for WT, when you play higher up the gun sounds are way better than tier 2, should've picked a tier 6-10 tank
Thanks for pointing that out. I’ll consider this for future comparisons to provide a more accurate perspective.
This guy definitely liked wt more
Haha, maybe just a bit. But all games have their own perks!
sry but you can download costum skin for war thunderalso wot more forgiveble?? shure with just 1 tank per round and premium ammo that add 30% damage sure
it is harder to make mone in WoT i gave up because repair cost and cost for standar ammo was to high if you play for free
WoT is 1000% pay to win with premium ammo premium add ons
you have only a hand full of slot for tanks for all nation
in WT every nation has it own slots for tank panles boots ship helicopters
in WT you dont nned to buy a garage to storte your stuff
or buy room for you crew like in WoT
in WoT if you run out of storage for you tank you must sell them same for unlockd times in WT you keep what you unlock and that te biggst + for WT
@paranoid9678 Thank you for your detailed comparison between War Thunder (WT) and World of Tanks (WoT). You've raised several valid points about the advantages and disadvantages of both games.
Custom Skins in WT: Indeed, the ability to download custom skins adds a personal touch to the game, enhancing the player's experience.
Premium Ammo and Pay-to-Win in WoT: The premium ammo and add-ons in WoT can certainly create a pay-to-win environment, making it challenging for free-to-play players. The economic model in WoT, with high repair and ammo costs, can be discouraging for many.
Slot Limitations: The limited slots for tanks in WoT can be a significant drawback, especially when compared to WT, where each nation has its own slots for various vehicles, providing more flexibility.
Storage and Crew Management: WT's approach to storage and crew management is indeed more user-friendly. Not having to buy a garage or room for your crew simplifies the gameplay experience, making it more accessible.
Your insights highlight important considerations for players choosing between these games. While WoT has its strengths, it's clear that WT offers a more forgiving and player-friendly environment, particularly for those who prefer a less restrictive and more varied gameplay experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and adding to the conversation!
Leveling is long in both games, as far as I understand, right?
Leveling can indeed be a long process in many games. It's all part of the journey.
Thanks for the good comparison and the high quality of the Video. 👍🏻
I play both games but i would rather prefer War Thunder. In War Thunder you have modern vehicles like Abrams, Leopard 2, Merkava etc, That makes the game for me more interesting. Tanks also feels more realistic. But overall i like both games.
Appreciating the nuances of both games shows a deep understanding and passion for gaming. It’s great that War Thunder’s realism and modern vehicles add so much to your experience. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
War Thunder: A Deeper, More Immersive Tank Experience
Trust me, if you're tired of the same old tank battles, War Thunder is the game for you. It's like stepping back in time, but with all the modern gaming thrills.
Here's why War Thunder is miles ahead:
* Historical Accuracy: Every tank, plane, and ship is meticulously modeled based on real-world blueprints. It's like a virtual history lesson, but with explosions and dogfights.
* Realistic Physics: Feel the weight of your vehicle as you maneuver across the battlefield. Every shot counts, and every hit has a significant impact.
* Diverse Game Modes: From historical battles to arcade-style mayhem, there's something for everyone. You can even take to the skies for intense air battles or command naval vessels.
* Community and Progression: Join a clan, team up with friends, and climb the ranks together. The progression system is rewarding, and there's always something new to unlock.
Imagine piloting a Spitfire through a dogfight, the wind whipping through your hair as you weave between enemy fighters. Or commanding a Sherman tank, leading your squad into battle against a Tiger. It's an experience you won't find anywhere else.
So, what are you waiting for? Give War Thunder a try. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Thanks for the comprehensive breakdown! War Thunder definitely offers a unique experience for those who love realism and detailed gameplay.
As a beginner what should I play?
I am a mobile gamer
try games and choose what you want
as a kid who plays warthunder and world of tanks, i can say that warthunder is better as it has mor realism and a wider variety of nations to reasearch
Great insight! War Thunder’s realism and variety are definitely strong points. What’s your favorite nation to play in War Thunder?
in my opinion, my favourite natione for low tier grinding is america as they have very balanced tanks and from rank 5 and above is definitely israel as they have OP tanks and skip reserve to rank 8
@kAI-o7o8s Great choices! American low-tier tanks are indeed well-rounded and forgiving for beginners, making them perfect for grinding. As for Israel, their high-tier lineup is fantastic-skipping reserve and jumping to rank 8 is a huge advantage. It’s always exciting to use their powerful tanks. Do you have a favorite tank from either nation?
@@MidGame le merkavah 4m

1:01 "Gay jin" 💀
No 🤣🤣
That's not a exp bar its a hp bar😂
Okay, I got it)
Just started playing War Thunder a few weeks back. Played WoT for years...I like War Thunder a lot better for one reason only, my shots go where I point, if I miss it's my fault not cuz RNG said a big fat NO 5 times in a row when I try to snipe other tanks' cupola or a tank is in open and I miss just cuz rng.
Another thing is premium tanks, so far in War Thunder I haven't met any premium tank that would stand out for being OP like in WoT where some premium tanks are god-tier ( yes I'm looking at BZ 176 ).
Another thing I noticed is how modifications work. When I get a new tier tank in WoT it will be horrible at the start, most of the time less powerful than the previous tier tank and you have to painfully grind a better gun, and better armor it's a pain since you will be pit against 1 or two tiers higher tanks and when you unlock new tank, you will be most of the time useless, unless you get into matches where you meet lower tiers than yourself.
In War Thunder modifications help, give an advantage but that's all...In my new tank that I just got I can still destroy others and never had in the back of my mind ohh I won't be able to do a damn thing against others since I got the crappy gun.
Don't get me wrong WoT is still fun to play, It's just a very arcade game and many things are just RNG
Thank you for sharing your experiences with War Thunder and World of Tanks. It's always insightful to hear from players who have extensive experience with both games. Let's delve into the key aspects you highlighted.
Accuracy and RNG
One of the main frustrations with World of Tanks is indeed the RNG (Random Number Generator) factor, which can make aiming and shooting feel inconsistent. In War Thunder, the shots generally go where you aim, which adds a layer of skill and predictability to the combat. This is a significant advantage for players who prefer a more skill-based approach to tank battles.
Premium Tanks
Your point about premium tanks is very valid. In World of Tanks, some premium tanks can feel overpowered, such as the BZ 176 you mentioned. This can create a sense of imbalance and frustration, especially for players who do not spend money on the game. In contrast, War Thunder’s premium tanks, while still advantageous, do not generally feel as overpowering. This helps maintain a more balanced playing field, where premium vehicles offer benefits without completely overshadowing regular tanks.
Modifications and Vehicle Progression
The modification system in War Thunder is another area where it shines compared to World of Tanks. When you acquire a new tank in War Thunder, it’s functional and competitive right out of the gate, even though modifications can further enhance its performance. In World of Tanks, a new tier tank often feels underpowered until you grind through upgrades, which can be a frustrating experience, especially when facing higher-tier opponents.
Realism vs. Arcade
The realism in War Thunder, as you pointed out, provides a rewarding experience once mastered. The game’s design focuses on providing a realistic simulation, which can be both challenging and satisfying. World of Tanks, on the other hand, offers a more arcade-like experience, which can be fun but sometimes feels less rewarding due to the heavy reliance on RNG.
Overall Enjoyment
It's great to hear that you’re enjoying War Thunder more due to these factors. Both games have their unique strengths and cater to different playstyles. War Thunder’s emphasis on skill and realism, along with a more balanced approach to premium content and vehicle progression, seems to be the key reasons for your preference.
Thank you again for sharing your detailed thoughts. It's valuable to hear from players with diverse experiences, and your insights help others make informed decisions about which game might suit them best. If you have any more observations or tips, feel free to share!

Both games have their challenges. With some practice, you might find your groove in WT too. Thanks for sharing your experience!
bcoz irl, u dont have an HP bar over your tank
😄😄
War thunder, tears apart from the inside, but that’s why we like it
So true! The challenge is part of the charm. Got any favorite vehicles or maps you love to grind on?
Boosteroid's performance for World of Tanks is simply unmatched.
greed!
Honestly i find that both of them have much a different begginer experience, in WT you get a more realistic grip and in WoT you get more thrill and overall faster first gameplay, and it really seems you just judged WoT so wrong, like you completely threw away all the builds, equipment, set-ups, types of gameplay, and a ton of mechanics you did not consider. Then you got the part were you said the community is toxic, it is, no way i'm defending that, but sadly when you said other players blame your for "playing defensively" you're just wrong and they're right, there's no "playing defensively" in WoT really, but people sadly found a way to call sitting in one spot for the whole game "playing devensively", i'm really assuming you were sitting in a frozen flank behind a wall waiting for something to happen (correct me if i'm wrong), that's just bad, freezing yourself in a stalemate is the dumbest thing you can do, you are making yourself useless and then getting no damage, then the enemy team just breaks the other side of the map because you and some other people are missing and boom, you lose, no money earned, no experience earned, and the game sucked. Oh and there's also custom battles in wot, where the same thing happens, high tier bullying low tier.
You’ve shared a really insightful perspective, and I appreciate the detailed feedback-it gives me a lot to think about!
First off, I completely agree with you that War Thunder (WT) and World of Tanks (WoT) offer vastly different beginner experiences. WT indeed leans into realism, with mechanics like no health bars and one-shot kills creating a truly immersive war simulation. On the other hand, WoT offers a more fast-paced, arcade-style thrill that can be easier for beginners to pick up and enjoy right away. Both approaches have their strengths, and it’s great to see how they cater to different preferences.
As for my comments on WoT, I can see where I might have fallen short in fully appreciating the depth of gameplay mechanics like builds, equipment, and setups. WoT does have a lot to offer once you dive deeper into its systems. Your point about “playing defensively” is also well-taken. Sitting in one spot waiting for something to happen can definitely backfire in WoT. You’re right that it often leads to stagnation and puts the team at a disadvantage, especially if key positions on the map are left undefended. I might have misinterpreted the situation, so thank you for clarifying this aspect.
And yes, toxicity in the community is an unfortunate reality in both games, but it’s good to see players like you calling out bad habits and encouraging better gameplay practices. Custom battles and high-tier bullying in WoT are definitely areas that could use improvement, but they also reflect the challenges of balancing such a diverse player base.
Your comment has reminded me how important it is to approach these comparisons with a balanced view, considering both strengths and weaknesses. I hope this helps clarify my perspective, and I’d love to hear more about your experiences with both games!
ask war thnuder if they could add the F-18,F-22,F-35 and the F-117. please!🙏
Those are some iconic aircraft! It would be amazing to see them in the game. I’ll definitely pass along the suggestion.
The F/A-18 should be coming soon. I’d say at the earliest the winter update.
If like me you're just a fan of the world war I and world war II stuff you just don't bother with the grind in War Thunder
Fair enough! Historical interest and grind preferences really shape how we enjoy these games.
I was a WOT player too its a fun what killed it for me was Fictional tanks being added to the game like tanks that never existed even blueprints lol
Thanks for sharing your experience. Game authenticity can be important to many players.
