War Thunder

[cooldued]

I know everyone is gonna hate on me cause I brought it up, but I don't really care. It's a okay game and I'd like to see a post about it, that's not just some other guys yelling back and forth, making this look like the WoT forum.

I really think it will not take down AcesHighII because AcesHighII has SKILLED players, because sometimes the game play requires such a player... not a player who needs simple controls like in War Thunder.

I myself wish I was better at this game, so I could come back and be worth something to my team, but I'm not. So I'm off to War Thunder the planet full of whiners, rammers, and (if I'm lucky) players who know what they are doing, so I can have a fun dogfight.

I forget where I was going with this post in the first place, but now its basically a warning... Stay away from the rammers and whiners!,if your good at this game don't play War Thunder! lol

If you want to talk about War Thunder, I would recommend doing so on their own forums.

If you want to talk about War Thunder, then I suggest you do so in the O'club forum.  Hold on just a minute, I'm confused.

Ah, never mind.

Personally, I think a World of Warplanes clone game with mouse controls and WW-2 planes isn't what I want to play.  If you can fly using just a mouse and keyboard, then it doesn't really feel like a proper flight simulator.  It is clearly just a game.  Emphasis on "game".

I like flight sims that say "Joystick required".  Preferably also rudder pedals.

However, if War Thunder has a hardcore mode that is cockpit only, stalls, spins, and plays better with a joystick than the guys with just keyboard and mouse controls, then I will give it a try.

I haven't actually tried it out, though.

I play AH and ROF and found War Thunder very strange

In regards to posting about it here, its a outrage

[coombz]

I want AH with War Thunder graphics

I tried a few times to enjoy War Thunder but I just can't ;<    AH has spoiled me for lesser flight sims

My thoughts exactly. Very pretty has a great replay and view system within the replay viewer some thing id like to see in aces high one day but other than that just a novelty.

It does not even support joysticks properly in the sense that in 'arcade' mode you are handicapping yourself to people who use the trainer mode mouse control.

It had me thinking about re-subbing for a little while but I am concerned over population issues since I find myself playing at odd non-prime time hours. I was playing it feverishly for a while but all I can think about are its short comings. I really detest playing with a mouse. I detest the lack of freedom playing with a mouse gives me. I detest the simplicity of the FM and how it rewards bad behavior and most of all I detest the lack of immersion since there is no point not flying around in external view with a mouse and a magical genie who corrects your flight inputs.

The breed of combat Sim gamers are dieing out and there are very few if any replacements coming up to replace them. Gamers today are generally unwilling to put time into learning and mastering challenges and simply want to get up running right out of the box as soon as a game is installed. It has me worried about the future of our niche genre, not just for aces high (I have not played it in years).

I hope you abuse a drug of some sort.  At least then you'll have something to blame.

Too bad I'm not allowed to watch it in my country. 

[Vudu15]

yea I dont know why either level of pilots in there are still nothing compared to here, tell you though sucks when your flying a biplane see a big stream of tracers come over look back and its a darn Beaufighter.....thats my issue with it. Sorry Lusche I'll see if I can fix that for ya.

I tried it but I am to attached to the viewing system in AH which IMO is the best by far....

Nah don't worry, I'm used to it. These days most of the YT vids posted here are not available to me, as well as many of the 'most watched' worldwide. If there's any music in it, chances are good we are blocked.
Heck, one of the russian dashcam comet vids was even blocked for a time beacuse the guy in the car was listnening to the radio while driving, and a tune was playing...
