The grinding system in the game is described as slow and repetitive, requiring significant time investment to progress, which can become tedious. While the game offers free experience boosters to alleviate some of the grind, players note that the overall experience may not appeal to everyone. Despite the grind, many find the gameplay enjoyable and feel the progression is fair, with minimal reliance on pay-to-win mechanics.
- “Around 30 hours in browser and 25 hours on Steam, and after all of that, I can definitely say it's worth a try, but it has a grinding system that is so slow that it just becomes repetitive.”
- “You would fight on maps you've already seen, encounter people you met the day prior, and the tanks of the other factions just require too much experience. Granted, the game does give you experience boosters for free, which is amazing, but they just make the grinding a little less painful. It's like using spicy sauce on a steak; it will make it taste better at first, but in the end, you can only take on so much spice!”
- “The progression, while grindy, is fair and seems to not fully rely on pay-to-win.”

The game suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, leading to a lack of stability and balance, particularly with light tanks that become nearly unbeatable due to these issues and the prevalence of cheating. Additionally, players have reported that the developers are unresponsive to these concerns, further exacerbating the game's stability problems.
- “There are a lot of bugs and glitches, and cheating is rampant.”
- “The developers are unresponsive to these issues, and the game has zero balance, greatly overpowering light tanks when the bugs, glitches, and auto-aim scripts are used, making them almost unbeatable.”
