[b][u]General information:[/b][/u]
[release] Interesting in playing a completely free-to-play tank MMO? There is no need to look further, World of Tanks has just hit closed beta! If you have the slightest interest in tanks or MMO's, I'm sure this game will be a hit for you![b] Scroll down on how you can grab a closed beta key and join the facepunch community of WoT![/b]
[b]About the game:[/b]
[quote]World of Tanks is a team-based massively multiplayer online action game dedicated to armored warfare. Throw yourself into the epic tank battles of World War II with other steel cowboys all over the world. Your arsenal includes more than 150 armored vehicles from America, Germany, and the Soviet Union, carefully detailed with historical accuracy.
A flexible system of authentic vehicle upgrade and development allows you to try any of the vehicles and weapons in the game. Whether you prefer to exhaust your foes with fast and maneuverable light tanks, make deep breaches in enemy lines with all-purpose medium tanks, use the force of giant tanks to eliminate opposing armored forces, or become a heavy sniper with long-range howitzers, each unit type has its own advantages and can be extremely effective when operated by a true tank ace.
But being a great tank commander alone isn't enough to win! In the World of Tanks, it’s all about teamwork. Victory is achieved by combining your combat skills with those of the other members of your team, each playing their own role on the battlefield. Just add your favorite strategy to build your own iron empire and manifest the indisputable authority of the tank power!

How the hell does tanks work in an mmo outside being a vehicle..
You didn't bother reading?
Anyways, for anyone wondering: [url]http://www.worldoftanks.com/about.html[/url]
It's a really good F2P game, and would love to see more FPers joining!
Personally I can't wait for the clan war system to be released, sounda awesome!

Shameless bump
WWII again? Why not something further like 1985? Then we get to use rarely-depicted MBTs like the T-64, Chieftain and Leopard 1.
The tanks are ranging from 1930's to Korean war. It is really awesome, once you see how much you can customize your face will be like this --> :O.
Nah, just joking :D. For anyone bored and wants to try a new good game, should give this a run. I usually don't like tank games, but this one is really cool :D.

Never played Navyfield, but isn't that a strategic game? World of Tanks is an action tank battle game..
Yea, this is nothing like Navyfield. Been playing the beta all day.
woot! got my bison sturmpanzer. It's an spg, it fucking rapes. 5 kills in my first battle with it.
I'm saving up for the Bison and BT-2. Just that ammunition and research takes so much money :(.
What's your IGN guys? Evilfeeder here, feel free to add me.
PS: Is it only me or are the servers down? :(
This looks nifty. I shall try.
Nice, got my key.
Mmmm, I want that Maus.
looks interesting will play tommorow
The freepcgamers link didn't require registration, and the bigdownload mirror was the fastest for me, FYI.
Awesome. Thanks for the key.
Actually don't use the bigdownload mirror, I downloaded the client twice from there and both times the music archive file was corrupt.
This game looks bitchin'. It's got realistic graphics and arcade gameplay.
It better have a fuckton of tanks.
:frown: mine keeps trying to connect to the server for a patch, but it never downloads it.

Try this.

Thanks :love:
[QUOTE=subenji99;23215687]The freepcgamers link didn't require registration, and the bigdownload mirror was the fastest for me, FYI.[/QUOTE]Wow thanks, it went from an hour to 20 minutes. Hearts for joo.
Looks cool, got a beta key. I'll download it after I'm done downloading the engineer update for TF2. :v:
We shall all play togheter tomorrow :D. You can create in-game permanent chatting channels, if you'd like I can create a facepunch channel :D.
That sounds good. Do that.
leadpumper12 in-game
For some reason the game never finishes patching.
That's a server bug, if you go on the forums they already have a temporary fix. You just need to download the updates and put them in your updates folder
The game looks pretty cool, registered and is now downloading the client. Hopefully I will be able to start playing tonight.
