You need to hit multiple weak spots to do enough damage to score a kill unlike WoT where hitting the same spot will yield approximately the same damage. Weak spots are the same, but continually knocking just the commander out will yield diminishing returns. I am not sure if I am allowed to mention WoT here but I wonder if the tank weak spots are the same between the two games? I played WoT a few years ago and I forgot the weak spots already. You just can't kill a tank by destroying its transmission and commander's hatch over and over like you can in WoT, which is a good thing. In general, though, while individual DMs can be more detailed (multi-segment guns), the weakspots are still the same. The major one being the kill conditions of tanks, pacing of game, and 'historical' versus 'ahistorical to balance.' Given WoT's 10 tier system, going historical wouldn't really work, while WT at least has the luxury of historical, though it makes the community far, far more critical of their designs whenever anything is even so much as 1 iota wrong.

The fun thing is, WoT actually tested a game mode where there was no health system, and instead had a module knockout system (which would make it very close to WT's system) and found it to be, unsurprisingly, incredibly frustrating and overly dull.īut in reality, those are the differences summed up. There's other things like variety and balance of map design (WT is far worse, though WoT wasn't exactly stellar at launch) and the like, but those will more or less come with time. There's likely others I haven't noticed), there's no module saving throw system (if you hit, you damage it, no exception), and there's an alarming tendency for everything to one-shot everything which, while true to life, doesn't make for fun or interesting gameplay (actually, it tends to have the opposite effect!) gun breaches and barrels instead of just the gun. The major differences between WoT and WT are: WT doesn't balance tanks for their respective BRs, erring for their definition of historical accuracy (no up-gunned tanks), tanks don't have a health pool (as far as I know, unlike planes), the damage model is higher resolution but not much more detailed with the exception of WT having transmissions and slightly more gun detail (E.G. Agreed, also there are a lot more components to each tank which means more weak spots to aim for.Īctually, WoT and WT have basically the same weak spots.
