Default War Thunder.... After some time.

Well....

After some time going at this game..the demo all I can say is it's a pain in the arss. It's beautiful the flight models aren't terrible but guess what..all I've been able to fly is German biplanes. I think they give you more if you fly for hours on end and score many kills but I can't do that! Or you can buy more aeroplanes. I think I'm so use to IL-2 that anything else that is different seems garbage or totally confusing to my pea sized brain. That's probably the main problem. The only other sim that comes close to IL-2 in my opinion is Rise Of Flight witch is good for all of us. The only thing is I'm not a WWI guy.

For me there was no feeling of flight, the cockpits are so bad there is zero immersion.

BTW: You can fly other aircraft, look on the research tree and you can test fly some aircraft.

Why not fly Clod now Rich? Not very much wrong with it, and ROF is two years away. Anything else coming in near future is crap, in comparison to Clod right now.

CLOD has beautiful pits, good but unfinished FM, good DM and physics.
But as mentioned in my other post, many important aspects of CLOD are ...I will not use your word, but, lets say, less than stellar. At release, before endless patches and updates, CLOD was labled as a "failure" by almost all critics and simmers...Hardly playable for most users...That is only few months ago....
So a lot of things can happen in "the near future"...

Salute !

I think COD is great but I just got tired with the same thing day in day out on ATAG So I went back to IL-2. Battle For Stalingrad is due the first quarter of 2014 so I figure I'll be in IL-2 mostly before it comes out.

Ok now i must eat my own hat...

I took some time with WT and when i finally got a grip of the controls and staying far away from the Arcade battle i am having fun with this, i just love being back to the ostfront again, i can play this until BOS comes for sure, i hate the RPG elements like hell but other than that this is good.
The CEM seems to work but you have to enable it with a key command, you have to choose the key in the controls menu, did you do that Krupi?

I have also plaid and give up. online is a joke, small maps, too many aircrafts all zooming around at sea level except jets that do b&z and no one can catch them. you have no idea who is friednly and who is enemy, everyone shoot at everyone even in the historical.

campaigns is a joke - aircraft carriers in battle of britain. destroy ten bombers in five minutes or fail mission. stupid game unless you think xbox is the best.

I am going to download it tonight to try it. I love war related flight sims. War Thunder is similiar to World of Warplanes? DotMMO says it is very similiar.
