The game feels better than it did last year.
Jap heavies aren't such a blight on the game.
Wheeled tanks are now my biggest gripe; their unnatural speed, turning ability and 'zergy' handling upsets the dynamics of the game. Furthermore, they seem to go too fast for the aiming mechanics in the game.
Too many wheeled tanks just yolo around going unpunished as well as turning games into pure RNG fests. Chaos is fun initially but after a while gets stale.
When wheeled tanks were in the Obsidian version of AW they were a little slower than their counterparts in WoT and couldn't turn as sharp, and when they were hit in the wheels their speed and handling took a massive hit. In WoT they seem barely affected.
Tier 9 and 10 is still a cancerous gold spamming fest, but gold rounds are a constant.
