Anyone here play it or would be interested? It's a free to play air and tank combat game (that will eventually have naval units too) and has WW2 to Korean War vehicles. Basically like WoT but better. At the moment the factions are US, USSR, Germany, UK and Japan and you can fight in all of their planes. Tanks have been added in a recent update so you can currently only play in American, Russian and German but there's lods of variety and they'll add more in the future.

It's open beta at the moment but they've said they'll keep everyone's game data and it's not far off a full game, and you can play in a squad with people on your friends list.

If you're interested you can either get the client from their website or through Steam, and all you need to do is sign up and download it. Also if anyone already has it then post your game username ITT m8s.

DevilDogGamer has loads of videos on Youtube.

I've always been awful at flying in video games.

I found war thunder to be the easiest flying game to play with a mouse.

I normally use my joystick but the mouse system is much easier.

This, I've used a joystick before for flying in other games in the past and didn't expect to get on well without one but it's done really well for mouse and keyboard.

Might get one eventually for simulator battles though, since it took me about half an hour of trying to be able to simply take off successfully.

What specs are your laptop? I didn't think it was that intensive.

Moved because cba starting a new topic. There's a patch coming out soon™ with a fair amount of crap in like the Leopard I and some other stuff.

Game's still pretty decent, keep coming back to it. I'm unlocking my first jet right now.

Y'all need to play it, yo.

Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar · « **Reply #14 on:** June 26, 2015, 09:03:53 pm »

No idea why it'd be so shit. I haven't heard of people having really bad performance with it before.

Actually, when was this? I used to have dreadful FPS on one map for some reason, but they fixed it eventually.

Diakun · « **Reply #15 on:** June 27, 2015, 12:46:57 pm »

sometime around/after you told me to get it

It'll have probably been a bug, I remember having a couple problems with FPS on some maps, if you try it now it should be fine.
