Feb 7, 2017Got hooked for a good few days, paid up got some cool planes, got hooked for a few weeks, saved and slogged for a Lancaster, got hooked for a few more days, then realised...holy cow this is boring.
Play have some fun, but don't waste too much money on this one ;) -
Oct 24, 2015After being away from gaming for a few yrs then giving it a try, I still think IL-2 1946 owns this game. Flight sims take so much time to master but in this one you need to just buy planes $$$

Dec 20, 2013This game had a lot of potential last year, but the developers have ruined it.
+good graphics
+different game modes
+a lot of planes
+really nice mouse aim
-grind
-pay2win
-no end game content, just endless grind
-grind again with new economics and progression system
-matchmaking and balance -
Jun 8, 2014A great game but a terrible f2p model. It could be much better if the microtransaction system was less blatantly greedy. Personally I found it very frustrating trying to get into, and issues with matchmaking ensure that you'll feel it if you havent spent any cash.

Jan 29, 2017The epitome of Russian bias against everyone but the Russian lines. The BR rating system is broken and the way you upgrade your vehicles depends solely on how much you pay and even then you don't have a guarantee of reaching the top. My advice, avoid this game at all cost.

Nov 15, 2018The game engine and the visuals are the only interesting things in this game.

Mar 1, 2019mensen zeggen dat het een goede wo2 simuator is op dat aspect doet het zn ding maar de mensen achter het spel willen al je geld uit je zuigen met microtransacties het verbaasd me dat dit spel niet door EA is gemaakt. ik weet dat het een free to play spel is maar als je kjkt naar andere spellen kun je ook gewoon skins of andere dingen die niet de gameplay of het progresie systeem beinvloeden.

Feb 14, 2019This is best tank simulator ever loads of fun. But matchmaking is ****, 1.0 match is too high.

Apr 10, 20202400 hours gameplay on ground and air battle
Outdated graphics came from 2015, especially the cloud chartlet
Bad game balancing, the server forced people with no gameplay experience to play with 100lv with premium vehicles
Only one game mode ( capture point and defend)
Too many bugs and magic
Vehicles problem are unrealistic ( challenger mk2 and oh-ho)
Bad server connection
Bad map design -

Apr 6, 2021this game is awesome and all but it does not matter if you cant play because of its INGAME downloading witch raises your PING and PacketLoss every time you see a tank with marketplace CAMO in every match there is.

Dec 17, 2022What's the Point Of Grinding when You can just Buy Top tier vehicles for 60 Dollars? The Game Tries to make you spend money on it at every turn. If you want to Grind the Game Without Buying Premiums It might take years to do 1 Tech tree. And if you do Buy Premium you can only hope The Developers won't Nerf it to the ground for it to be Unusable.

May 24, 2023Cela fait 5 ans que je joue à ce jeu et ça commence à devenir de pire en pire" -L'économie qui nous fait perdre de l'argent même si on fait une bonne game. -le br qui nous fait croiser des chars de la guerre froide alors qu'on se bat avec un char de la WW2.
- Le système "anti-triche" qui fait tout sauf bannir les tricheurs. -

Dec 10, 2013Some good elements but the fun ends quickly when you are constantly getting destroyed by your own team-mates or suddenly have your pilot knocked out without any apparent reason. Needs a lot of polish to controls, menus, and general game play.. Too often will you rage quit this game because sudden death that occurs without explanation or without any apparent warning.

Game World Navigator MagazineJan 25, 2017One of the cornerstones of War Thunder is that player’s skill is more important than his wallet. Premium vehicles offer no combat advantages, there is no “microtransaction-only” ammo or consumables, so no amount of cash will buy you a spot on the top of the food chain. [Issue#216, p.56]

Jan 13, 2017The official launch of War Thunder reminded me why I like this game so much. It's adorably chaotic - in contrast to the reliably designed World of Tanks. That's why it can be really fun and frustrating at the same time. There's tons of great vehicles (and the planes are superb!) and a difficult simulation mode, but there are also balance and technical issues.

Aug 14, 2014Overall the War Thunder tank battles are great even at this early stage.
