Game Genre Wars - #1

Welcome to the first GGW!
Today we will be comparing one of the most classic games against a fairly new one.
Heli Wars vs Base War!
Now, everyone on Roblox has played Heli Wars, or atleast heared of it, and it's been on the front page many many times.
Base War has been around for a good few months, and been on the front page it's fair amount of times.
But which is better?
1. Realism
Both Games are extremely unrealistic, but the most un-realistic one is Heli Wars by far.
No proper cross hair, not much GUI, and very basic base structure.
So who wins this round? Base War. Maybe very un-realistic, but wins by the edge.
2. Game Play
The gameplay of both games are entirely different. Heli Wars is not as smooth, but the advantage of the map not being so big gives it a more "playful" atmosphere.
Whereas Base War has a much larger map, which results in slower gameplay. The fact you have to use a vehicle to get anywhere fast is not very good. Who wins this round?
Heli Wars by quite a lot. Quicker gameplay means more fun.
3. Weapons
If you've played both games, you can probably predict which wins this. Heli Wars weapons are some of the most basic weapons on Roblox. Whereas the weapons Base War has are much more advanced and use proper GUI.
This one goes to Base War.
4. Vehicles
Helicopters, Jeeps, Tanks and Planes. Base War has it all.
But Heli Wars? Only about 2 of those things.
Base Wars has stuck with the classic controls for the helicopter and plane, but gone for the new arrow keys seat for the Jeep and Tank.
It is a lot easier to kill people in Heli Wars, but the disadvantage is that people can spawn camp a lot easier.
So who wins this round? Base War.

So I guess it's Base War who wins statisticly, but who actually wins? You decide!
