Last week the developers gave us one of the most buggy Raids and terrible customer service. Really goes to show how little they value their relationship with players whether they are f2p or p2w. If you are a new player deciding on whether you should give this game a try do yourself a favor and just walk away!
Save yourself from a mindless, tedious addiction that is hellbent on taking as much money out of your pocket as it can and find a much more player friendly game to play. You will thank me later.
I played Tyrant Unleashed before playing the original Tyrant. Both games have their pros and cons and both games do feel totally different from one another despite TU being based closely on WMT.
I decided to start playing WMT at the start of August. logged in maybe 6-7 times a day desperately trying to scramble a half decent deck together in such a short time. What I have learnt in just 2 weeks is that this game offered something that TU never can nor never will. I don't think there will be a CCG around with a similar feel to WMT. It was nice knowing that even online card games can offer a full gameplay experience to F2P players and still survive such a long test of time!
My only regret is that I didn't start playing this game early enough to join more live tournaments, Conquest and Faction wars. Rest in Peace WMT.
Things you need to know if you are just starting to play this game:
1. It's pay to win (p2w). You can still have a great time playing free to play, and you can still do quite well without paying a cent. However expect to be spending a lot of time on this game losing to pay to win players.
2. This game is a long term investment if you want to do well in it without paying money. If you want a really good deck it takes a long time. Expect to be checking back on Tyrant unleashed each day for a while if you plan to keep on playing.
Otherwise this game can still be quite fun if you're not turned off by the above two points I mentioned. :)
