@Icarian @madglee you really sit there loading the game over and over until you open it with a 10% chance.. I just make a mental note and carry on playing then go back at a later time when my skill is higher.
This game has some really nice ideas like being able to equip your troops with different types of equipment but still for a game thats been in development for so long there are a lot of issues with the game and not just bugs as thats fine it early access but other parts of the game that make you think yup this is not going to get any better than how it is now.
Collisions and crashes are ok but the one most annoying thing about war thunder is the people who ram other players thinking its a good idea..
For instance you can spend ages in an early plane trying to take down a bomber in arcade.. unload tons of ammo and about to kill the bomber just to get some twerp fly directly at him and ram him into oblivion.. thats 0 points for you, 0 points for the bomber and 0 points for the rammer and a waste of time for you as well as you could have been killing other people..
I think thats one of the most annoying things in War Thunder at the moment other than that its a really fun game and I have put quite a bit of time into it.
@lorider25 well it takes time to unlock everything yes but thats the same as other similar type games in the end they need to make money to keep the games going.. but its not pay to win as you are basically paying to get xp faster and cash faster but that does not mean you will win.
Also the premium planes you can buy jsut give you an additional xp bonus but are not any better than the normal planes.
I would also like to point out that all the planes and different tiers are great funto fly not just the jets. I have a few nations qutie high but I also roll back to the starter planes now adn then because they can be just as much to fly as any of the other planes. You are also only put against planes of a similar level.
