Edit 29/8/2023:

Over the course of the pass few months, Gaijin have show us the road map to improve the progression and QoL overall. For now it's actually bearable for most of the player. Can't say I can recommend the game rn as their statement clearly stated that they will revert any changes they made if they find the business model is not working/ not profitable. I will wait until the end of 2023 for another review to see if I will change my comment to recommend


Original:

So where to start? Yes, back in the day (~2013, 15 something) the game is great, promising gameplay, graphic, music, progression is great.

But now? Gaijin is just EA in 2018 but worse, nerfing SL (in game currency) gain and adding way too many questionable premium vehicles which makes the poor balance of the game even more (A10, SU25, 2S38 etc.)
And now they are trying to make you buy pixels for 69.9 USD (Just a plane, and every countries in the game have one which is 69.9x10)

And this game have a "soft balance" which is called Repair cost that you have to pay every time you lose said vehicles, even with Premium account you can purchase in Game (that gives you more SL income and Research Point to progress faster), you will lose SL because of the ridiculous high repair cost ( most notably if you are playing Naval, a Battleship can cost you 60-70k SL while you may only get 20-30K per game due to the low SL income; or if you are playing UK, Sweden, France, YOU WILL LOSE SL FAST)

Just avoid this game until the devs actually admit their fault and correct their mistake
