It looks like it is just a benchmark.It interrogates your system and runs the test.It then phones home to tell mommy how well your hardware ran their game.
World of Planes – Time to check your system!
Gaijin Entertainment thanks you for your interest in World of Planes. We are working very hard on the project and are already running internal tests of a future Beta version. But here’s the thing: PCs come in thousands of different configurations and as you can imagine, to make a game work well on all of them is an extremely difficult task. That’s why we need your help! In order to tune the Beta even before releasing it we have made a special World of Planes Direct X9 Benchmark. This program will allow you to see a part of World of Planes and us to test the performance of your computer. The benchmark will send us your settings and test results which will give us an idea on how we are doing with the current version and what needs to be done before release. To participate in the World of Planes benchmark, please register for it at YUPLAY.com !
