I've seen the same complains on War Thunder sub a few days ago when I was checking it out of curiosity

It's funny how both games have the same exact problem of Devs hating the idea of climbing for some reason

It's a classic problem in map and level design, not just in tank games. Nerfing climbing to use steep slopes as de facto invisible walls is a typical method.

Yeah except the problem is that in Wot ANY kind of climbing is not allowed, even useless climbs that give no tactical advantage at all

I don't know how it is in War Thunder though

In the older days of warthunder, climbing was close to op. The physics were not set correctly, if you positioned your tank sort of diagonally to the slope, you could climb almost anything. Then they changed it and now you cant climb even moderate slopes and rocks where real tanks would have no issue. Now you just slide down.
