Here its is. War thunder is pretty...and that's it. here is a video I shot from it when a guy talked me into playing it during beta.

Ok, really pretty graphics

When flying from first person you cant look backwards, infinite ammo, fuel, bombs.

Arcade game.

Was the 109 a bad AI, or a bad real person?

I will say that it made for a pretty cool aerial dance.

The ground looks like someone flew over the san Gabriel mountains near Los Angeles, filmed them, then digitized them as the map. Can't miss the brown grass in SCal during June. At one point it looks like they forgot to blank out a micro wave repeater tower.

I don't think you would have lowered your high standards Zack.   

Now if HiTech can sub us some cash we could attempt to raise the game a little.    :D

Bad person but that Fury was a POS too, one of the few times Ive yelled in disgust at the computer, you see how it rolled way past a point I wanted it at, wasnt smooth at all with the inputs and thats something I excel at. It had fine points but not enough to convince me, also this server had some realistic settings on.

"some realistic settings" :D

The stuff that Dhyran has posted look awfully much like AH on FM side. When I tried WT I had no problems with control inputs lagging, perhaps your computer couldn't handle the graphics?

     I had a great laugh watching the Mighty Jingles and his commentary about the Dehavilland Mosquito.
Only a few minutes into the clip and I couldn't watch any more.  He was complaining about the Mossie's
agility in a high speed dive, then again about it's poor climb performance.

     Watching the video, he hit over 700 mph in a dive..then DROPPED FLAPS!  Then he was complaining
about only doing 370 at 300 feet and losing speed in a shallow climb!  :eek:

     Nice flight model there WT.... :rofl

     So how much different is ultra realism mode?  Seems like arcade sets the bar incredibly low.

it is. frb is no icons, no hud, advanced engine management, very very little difference in the flight model from arcade.

oh and you're still flying aircraft that didn't actually see service, sometimes against aircraft that were never flown in combat with the country they represent.
