  1. 67,65 percent of users is from Russia

    And this is why wot is such a badly coded game. After i got a new laptop that runs the infamously optimized Arma 2 on high at mininum 30fps, i decided to try WoT, and guess what, it runs at ~20-25fps on low.
    Yey for the russian playerbase and their potatoes.

  2. I would Love to see similar demographics of the EU site and it would be awesome too see average player stats per nationality hehe

    • You can fix a mod (think it’s in xvm) where you can see which (language) client they play on. Enjoy!

  3. “Regarding the countries of the users:
    [...]
    0,54 percent from Germany”
    Can anybody explain that to me?

      • Oh, No shit. Just wondering why only Germany and not other eu countries where Russians live?

    • Have you ever been in Germany? At least in some big city?
      I was in Berlin couple years ago, and when I took a tour around the city, I heard Russian talking people on sthe streets or in shops a lot.
      I know, Russians live everywhere, but there’s especially many of them in Germany.

      • I actually live in Munich and also noticed that there are some Russians, but there are still more Poles, Turks etc. than Russians. And when I was in Poland last year, I am quite sure that I met more Russians there than I do in Germany.

        • Hi, I work in Munich too and did not think that the Russian population is really noticeable. It might be that in eastern Germany a lot of people still talk some Russian (it was tough in school instead of English) and thus visit the Russian site for news.

    Am I the only one who is a bit confused by those numbers?
    Considering 68 % of users come from Russia.
