I think you have some of the games put into the wrong places though. Like Payday 2 is a shooter game, EFT is not survival game, World of tanks is considered MMO, Call of Duty is more of a shooter than battle royal since that is just one part of the game only, War Thunder is not a flight sim, etc.

 

Just highlighting and let me know if you want help with rearranging these. Don't ask me why I care please because I am asking that myself right now too. I guess I am just curious on what this is.

Just to clarify, WoT is not an MMO, at least not like the others, in that it is not an RPG. It is more of an armored arcade shooter, similar to WowS, Warthunder, and Crossout. All of these games center around building, modding, and then blowing up various vehicles in battle.

Yes, it is different from traditional MMO but it is considered to be an MMO first by the development team itself.

 

"What genre does World of Tanks belong to?

World of Tanks is a huge mixture of multiple genres. First of all this is a global-scale MMO action game. Secondly, there’s a combination of other genres like FPS, RTS, RPG, and simulator."

While I understand that each of these games have their own classification, they all have one thing in common and it's the most important thing of all, they are games we have and love to play in TAW.  Video Games are what binds our community together and that is something no developer can categorize.

It's a cool list. Fun to look through.

 

I think there's zero point splitting hairs about the categories as most games now a days are more than one thing. Games like overwatch, COD and Destiny could be in about 3 or 4 different categories. I agree on the general place most games have fallen on the list.

MelonyGranger,

 

Thank you compiling this list. It possible, could you put Planetside 2 as both an MMO and a Shooter? If not, than put it as a Shooter.

Out of the options, if only one can be chosen, WoT should be under Arena IMO. I am the Division Commander for our world of tanks division.

The Crossout division would list it in the following categories. Please contact Antagonist if you have any questions.

Arena

Battle Royale

If you're using multiple categories, War Thunder should definitely go under MMO. Aircraft are only one of three types of vehicle, and actual flight simulation is one of only three aircraft game modes.
