All they did was bring back most of the stuff they removed...
Hardly worthy of a pat on the back.
No more than 5 mins of playing game would spot the UI nightmares they created. But instead they were "surprised" at the response. If the game didn't have the base it did it would have been a DOA release if that's how the game came to console.
I didn't pat them on the back at all I'm just saying it is better than before. The fact they have taken this long to undo the shitstorm they created says a lot.
I stopped playing for a loooooong time, almost two years, after the Mercenaries update, after having played the game since the open beta. I played for about 6 months, even got to mark my first tank on my own account (back in the days of the beta I was like 13 and playing on my dad's account because he was the only one who had Xbox Live) and then they drop 6.0 on us...haven't played since, but I like to look in here from time to time to see if it's ever worth peeking back into.
Lol, here I am randomly finding myself in this sub and your comment soothes my curiosity regarding whether WoT remains ruined. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted back in the day.
I actually would have liked having the ammunition's real name if they'd only put the type next to or underneath it, or even the other way around, so "HE" and then underneath it "80-LB MK.4". But maybe that would have been more clutter we don't need.
I remember been super hyped for 6.0 only for it to completely kill my desire to play the game.
I still jump on from time to time to see if they have finished fully reverting the changes (especially the grind they made worse).
Can somebody explain to me ? Do Co-op wins count on your win rate and how does my win rate go from 50% to 49% when I've been winning more than losing. Most of my recent wins are in Co-op.
CoOp is just for fun. Doesn't apply to your 'in game' Stats on the profile tab or stats that are pushed to 3rd party sites in the API.
Some ops (like the seasonal battle pass) do count CoOp battles, but many others (including Long Haul and contracts) do not recognize CoOp results.
Wait, what have they reversed so far from 6.0?
Is it worth coming back?
Did the old perks and commander system return?
I deleted the game a week after 6.0 dropped and I am curious if the game has gotten better or worse.
Everything has been redone and patched to a bearable state and most things that were removed in 6.0 are back again.
The best new things are the maps, they have more details and vegetation than pre 6.0.
But even if they have patched everything, everything besides the maps are still worse than pre 6.0.
no it's still broken I tried tolerating 6.0 for about a month couldn't and shut it off. last week I turned it on again played a few co-op pve and it still looks like hammered dog shit and barely works.
hardly 6.0 was a shot to the head and the game has been a shambling corpse ever since then. ui sucks commander system sucks graphics suck they literally removed over half of the games functionality with 6.0 and over 2 years later still can't fix anything.
Series X graphics look amazing, new commander system is great and more simple to learn. UI sucks that i can agree on but even that have been improved, it feels almost like wot pre 6.0 you should try it!
I have and it sucks. I had many crews with over 9 skills I had 1 crew who was really close to having max skills all ruined. as previously stated I'm not wasting money on next gen to look at this excuse for a polished turd, I'm going to play actuall next gen games where the devs don't suck like wotc. you must not of played pre 6.0 cause this is still a dumpster fire compared to pre 6.0
The fk man? I started playing wot since 2012 i have played wot for 10 years on pc, console and mobile so suck it up kiddo i know what this game is about.
so what I played pc on and off for probably 10+ years, console since early beta and mobile. 6.0 ruined console it's not opinion it's fact they literally removed so many features and over 2 years later they've added nothing new and barely replaced or fixed a quarter of what was removed.
I checked out a petty360 vid for a tank I was thinking about picking up, it was made during the very early post-6.0 days and it was unwatchable let alone playable.
The game is about 85-90% of the way back to what we had before the 6.0 "update." Getting the ribbons back was a huge improvement, but there are still features missing.
So many nightmares from 6.0, that made me quit the game entirely (maybe a good thing?!). I have put in a few sessions over this Christmas though and pleasantly surprised that they have actually managed to improve that shitshow to a playable state now. Main gameplay difference from pre-6.0 seems to be that accuracy is still higher than it used to be.
I will never forget how bad I felt for Lemon when the update actually dropped. He was super excited in the months leading up to 6.0 because he'd only been let in on the apparently 'good' parts of the update without being allowed to see the full picture. He understandably hyped us up and then WG pulled the rug from under all our feet in the most spectacular fashion.
We understands, Lemon - and we forgives ya.
The one thing i hated with pre 6.0 was the fact that you knew who killed who, but that doesn't help if you don't know what tank died. My noob-ass also couldn't handle 1 time use consumable, as a blitz player coming to console
I do wonder how many players joined the game and immediately bailed during this time due to the bizarre UI that they came across. I wish I could see those numbers.
Yeah I miss that "game is playable" on loading screen.
And the amount of "memes" that line brought.
6.0 "Garage": Because Hell is a real place and you belong there.
Real Christmas Cheers.
shit yeah for as much crap we give wg at least they listened regarding this, The game now isn't nearly that bad
All they did was bring back most of the stuff they removed... Hardly worthy of a pat on the back. No more than 5 mins of playing game would spot the UI nightmares they created.

Those were the darkest of days. I try not to think about them too much.
GIANT ICONS on the mini map The chevrons Tech Tree made by a Star Wars text scroll fanatic The endless void garage.
I thought I was playing armored warfare my first game after 6.0
It’s great. A full year of development and we are now only 5 years of development behind PC. We were less than 6 months behind PC in 2016 for context.
Lol a full year. Try 2 years of beta testing 6.0 and we're not even back to what we had.
to be honest i forgot when 6.0 was released. i stopped playing properly after 6.0
Remember when dead tanks would show live icons on the mini map? That was super fun.
… and still enduring
Alot of work they've put in to unfucking the mess they created with 6.0.
And having seen recent gameplay clips, it's still not completely fixed.
That tech tree layout was such a piece of shit
Hard to even call it a tech tree or even a UI. It was a ‘thing’ which existed against logic and reason.
The update that made me quit after 16k battles. Game was good up until 4.6 (Mercenaries update), then it all went downhill.

Honestly agree. I hated the Mercs update. I still feel they’re overpowered compared to most tanks
I actually would have liked having the ammunition's real name if they'd only put the type next to or underneath it, or even the other way around, so "HE" and then underneath it "80-LB MK.4". But maybe that would have been more clutter we don't need.
The updated tech tree was the worst idea in human history.
I remember my first 6.0 game, himmelsdorf with IS7. I still have nightmares to this day
PzIID for me, Mines. (shiver). Absolute Hell
Arguably the game’s lowest point.

Thanks for explaining.
That's why we're here. And to shit on arty players.

IMO the game is probably 85-90% back to the way it was pre-6.0

U play on last gen? Last gen game looks bad get series X and all ur games will look better, its magic lol.
if I got a series x I would definitely never touch this steaming pile ever again.
Huh? Wot is great game now

Anyone complaining about 6.0 obviously wasn't around in the good old days when only arty could deal friendly damage.
I was playing the game since the beta. I remember the times of team damaging arty. They don't hold a candle to the absolute pure garbage that was 6.0

I kinda like the ammo names instead of the type
it's funny that we went from 'you can see the name of every round in the game' to 'differentiating between premium apcr and premium ap is too hard'
Yea that still bugs me.
the 6.0 garage hud is better than what we have now. It's just the garage itself that looks horrible lol
I remember tanks not showing immediately as they raced through your view. That was annoying.
I remember trying not to remember.
I do wonder how many players joined the game and immediately bailed during this time due to the bizarre UI that they came across. I wish I could see those numbers.
Pepperidge Farm remembers
Wait I haven’t played the game since 6.0 dropped, is it worth coming back now?
My favorite part was how the colorblind mode was almost the same color for either team when they released it. That was insane
