  1. [R2] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 5/5 · US PlayStation differs: So, I LOVE this game. Understand that. But I like it better on the PlayStation (please don’t hear that badly) yet the American branch? It only goes up to VIII while mobile goes to X. Weird, right? And for the aircraft carriers (this HUGELY bothers me) you only have the Langley, the ranger and the Lexington for the standard aircraft carriers. This makes me upset because I am hu
  2. [R9] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Let’s get ram damage already!: Been playing game since release and wondering why wow blitz devs haven’t added a basic game mechanic like ram damage? If you think about it it adds another element of longevity to the game as it will make players change of the dynamics of gameplay. To me this is crucial in the long run.
  3. [R11] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 5/5 · US The best war game to date: This is one of the best war games on the phone, it’s damn near just as good as War Thunder!! Get it now! You won’t be disappointed.
  4. [R27] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Game became too bloated: I plaid this after a couple years of hiatus and my quick take is that the game became too bloated and sort of unplayable as a newcomer. The progression system seem overly complex and it’s hard to get far without premium (as intended). I played this for a few days again and then deleted it.
  5. [R8] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 5/5 · US Enjoyment: Having a great time blasting ships out the water like a boss happy captain here
  6. [R30] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Love the game but the ships stopped appearing in port: Not sure why but the ships stopped appearing in port. Tried to update but it says I’m up to date. Love the game but I miss this aspect.
  7. [R35] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 5/5 · US Best: I love this game
  8. [R1] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Lost all saved data. Customer support non-existent: I just lost several years of progress, a few thousand dollars spent on ships and game time. No reply’s from costumer support. Apple unable to assist since everything is managed by the app creator. Use caution with this game. Customer support does not exist.
  9. [R13] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Lag is making this game unplayable: As of Feb 7 there is lag for every battle and no way to communicate to anyone about it. It is going to make me quit this game again. Every match i have to stop because shooting because I know im not hitting anything. Think you can I don’t know maybe fix this. Would be a great game if the lag didn’t make this such hot garbage
  10. [R15] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Crashes a lot: Good game just constantly crashes waiting for updates to hopefully fix this problem
  11. [R24] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Keep getting dropped out of the during battle: It happens when I start a battle all of a sudden the game closes out on me
  12. [R4] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 2/5 · US The most unfair: Creators, there's no point playing the game if you're up against 'donators' (players who spend real money). Ships disappear, connections drop, all just so those who spend real money can win. There will be an outflow of players! · translated
  13. [R6] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Good game but in app purchases are too expensive and borderline exploitation: There is no ability to effectively gain enough currency to compete at same level as those who spend exorbitant amount of money to play. The repair kits for example, if you play 20 rounds per day, and buy $5 bucks worth repair kits, you will use them faster than someone who plays less. There is no incentive to play more
  14. [R10] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Pay to win: After 8 years the game has gone full play to win. There are so many people playing that the servers can’t handle the traffic and all these adds to watch to get more stuff…..and they still want more money. The game has been unplayable for months now. Oh, and if you write a bad review like this one, they target you in the game. They’ve since me before the voiceover finishes at the start
  15. [R12] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Great game BUT: Okay so let’s be real, this game is grind heavy, we all know this, you DONT need to spend money to get to top tear but if you are going to main battle ships, your gonna get ur shot run by destroyers because the arming time on them doesn’t exist, the arming time on most torpedoes is atleast 1km, these destroyers are firing them from 0.1 km, also you battleships can’t do anything to
  16. [R7] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Extorting player base every SINGLE second this app is open: “We’re sorry to hear that your experience hasn’t met your expectations. Feedback from players is carefully collected and reviewed by the development team as part of ongoing efforts to improve the gam “. Do something about the match maker. Fix problems. Don’t just talk about it. WarGaming might be a New born baby. This developer doesn’t c
  17. [R31] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Needs fixes: Torpedo hit boxes are broken, spotting is broken etc wg doesn’t care tho as long as they get money
  18. [R3] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US Games are Rigged: You can always tell when you’re supposed to lose or win. Sometimes the opponents are just on you and never miss. When I’m in a cruiser or battleship, destroyers are nearly impossible to hit, I’m lucky to get one or two hits from a broadside. When I’m in a destroyer, I can’t get anywhere near a larger ship without taking a full broadside dead on. It’s very unfair. That said, game
  19. [R5] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 4/5 · US Torpedoes: Love the game and I play often but it’s so disheartening to flank a ship and hit with a dozen torpedoes only to have it sink me with two salvos and sail away.
  20. [R33] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 3/5 · US This game can do better. It has great graphics: Graphics of the game are outstanding for realistic gameplay. I’m only struggling with the final mission of the tier 10 Montana battleship because all I play is permanent random battles. Earning XP to add ‘damage control center’ is just far too much to be able to buy. I also own a Louisiana class tier ten battleship and there is the same problem with
  21. [R62] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Great game: The game is very good! Modern ships, helicopters, aircraft’s….amazing!!! Thank you dear developers. Please don’t stop and continue to support this game many thanks in advance
  22. [R74] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Quality: The game is really good I played it for a good hour and I already got to level ten just 6 more levels away from level 16 so I can do air combat and I love the quality it’s real good try the game!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  23. [R80] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Good game: Very realalistick
  24. [R19] World of Warships Blitz 3D War 1/5 · US Scam: Game is so unbalanced and full of cheaters played as a destroyer point blank released my torpedoes a cruisers dodged them no way battleships and cruisers turning on a dime evading them cheaters playing on the game don’t waste your time or money all you do is get losses and frustration such a game full of cheaters pay to win
  25. [R63] Modern Warships 3/5 · US Very Good Game: Nice game and good graphics i love the music but the thing is the mods DONT do their job. The mods banned me for ONE DAY in chat because of asking which ship is better… BUT the mods dont ban people who say bad things to others. Dev if your see this your moderators are NOT DOING THEIR JOB! ( im so mad rn)…
  26. [R94] Modern Warships 2/5 · US Moderators: Moderators ruin the game by creating an unfair advantage. Moderators are also clan leaders and will ban people in local chat. Therefore the clans they are competing against can’t recruit in local chat. The game is managed horribly.
