I'm sorry to admit, mouse mode is the only way to play this game as a fighter.



And Russians are crazy overpowered.

Is it another Russian game?

Is this the beta, meaning any progress you make is going to be lost when it goes live?

Yes, Russian. It's supposedly in beta, but the developers have proclaimed that there won't be any wipes when they go V1.0. Even if they were to do so, they've gone on record that all your purchases will be refunded in game.

Yes, but the game may not reflect that.

I've had a bit of fun with War Thunder. The Arcade mode is really fun because even low tier aircraft can shoot down high tier aircraft. Also much of the player base is just terrible at the game so if you've any experience with combat air sims you'll likely do really well.

It's still in beta and a lot of the flight models are still wonky but otherwise it's pretty darn fun. I'd like to play more but I'm stuck in WoT-mode, as well as Tomb Raider.

If you find yourself short of cash try the Historically battles (using a bomber). I just bust out my Tier 5 JU-88 and easily make 30-40K a battle (non-premium). It carries 36 bombs, so it's a beast when it comes to soaking up the cash targets.

The planes perform more realistically (high speed turns can tear your wings off, stalls, spins, and other details), no targeting cross hair for guns, ammo runs out than you need to land and rearm, and you are allowed only one plane (no respawns). The action isn't as fast and furious as there is time to the target and so on. Very little ramming since you only have one plane.

If you are good the exp/cash reward is very good and battles aren't that much longer than arcade ones.

Except when it says you're in "Arcade Mode", and you're not, and it won't let you go back to it.
