Nobody will read my review, so I'll just say I'm gay

So, this starts out fun. I was really enjoying it and then you hit a point, I don't know if there is a trigger or not but I got to Tier 6, and it suddenly changed, totally.
Instead of fun battles with similar tier teams it was suddenly a majority of games with tanks +2 tiers higher than yours and all the artillery. This meant that your ammo did not even pen most of the medium and heavies and they just hit you at will, normally 2-3 shots and you are dead.

Other bad points:

Vision System - Started out ok but, by T6, you will get shot most of the time by tanks you can't even see. Even if you know exactly where they are and are within you green vision range. I have a crew with the +vision device, and all the perks that add vision and, still, I can't see at least half of the tanks that shoot me, while I am hiding in a bush.

SPG's - These things are the worst thing about this game. They take zero skill to use and are the most anti-fun thing I have ever found in a game. They are also boring as hell to play as and the game forces you to do so in order to complete missions. I seriously had more fun at my last colonoscopy than I have had playing with these things, and you will get them in EVERY game at T6, normally 2 of them and they will destroy you from across the map with no chance of doing anything about it.

I have enjoyed the first 50 hours or so, so I can't say I hate the game totally but it really changes and becomes a different game after that and, sadly, that game is far less fun.
It seems that you can negate the problems somewhat if you spend real monies. The "Premium" tanks seem to get preferential matchmaking so they can club the lower tiers and they make more in-game money so they can take the "premium" ammo that has a higher pen.
