Title: World of Warplanes: or, zomg ur shooting gold u flying hack
Post by: CountDeMoney on November 16, 2013, 09:01:43 PM
Well? Anybody DL it yet?

Or is in just more War Thunder, where Russian pre-war biplanes rule the skies like little flying OP tank destroyers?

I played in Beta 8 months ago, seemed alright from what experienced then. But I think Strix or some others who were playing both liked War Thunder more iirc

ZOMG the US tech tree is absolutely badass.  Go navy with the Pirate and the Cutlass in Tier IX and X? Oh hells yeah.

Only thing missing is the Skyraider.  :mad:

First kill?  A ram kill, of course.

Just like it should be.

I've tried it - it is certainly not as fleshed out as War Thunder. But the fact that my premium account for WoT works in it as well makes it worth screwing around with.

Personally, I like the interface and the graphics better than War Thunder.

War Thunder had its good points, but the Russian design philosophy was so over the top, it was ridiculous. And the blatant racism didn't help, either.

But WoT/WoWP is also developed by Russians... :unsure:

No fucking shit, Nanook.  It's just not as blatantly obvious about it.

Played both about 8 months ago, thought War Thunder was better at the time.  Not sure how WoW has progressed, though.
