I just downloaded it yesterday. Definitely a learning curve but it's really fun.
Sounds like a competitor to World of Warplanes with bits of World of Warships and Tanks in it, except it has a world to explore like World of Warcraft/mmorpg's in general, given what I read from the description. Funnily enough, it originally was called World of Planes.

The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.
I've been playing it for a while now, currently rank 8 as the British.
Really fun game so far.

It's far better than World Of Warplanes. the learning curve is a bit much, and fucking settings controls with a joystick seemed to take forever. The game is pretty win though.

I just made rank 2 as US yesterday. Definitely not an easy game but it's very rewarding when you get a kill-streak.Little BaBy JESUS wrote:

No kidding, I even gave up setting up the joystick the first time, I just wanted to play FFS. There are so many buttons/commands.IrishGrimReaper wrote:

i posted about this in games chats a while back
it's good, but not at all balanced at the moment and the grind gets FUCKING HORRIFIC after about L10. also joysticks are a bit of an iffy (bad) choice for arcade.
on the plus side, it's not really p2w (for this sort of game) at all.

I'm happy enough flying my pro Kittyhawk and Airacobra's they own. Haven't even tried the other nations yet.

Level 10 and up is a pretty serious grind for me at the moment, but I'm not sure whether I want to go all the way as British (no homo) or switch it up and give another nation a go for a while.
my nan got well excited hahIrishGrimReaper wrote:

airacobra owns, hellcat owns, the p47 owns but is fucking expensive
kittyhawk is like a spitfire, so so good
and catalina is the best low-tier bomber

you probably don't. the lancaster is shit, the meteors are cheap, but shit and that's it for brit high-tier. russians or germans get the best high tier, but the russians also get good planes at basically every level, unlike the germans.Little BaBy JESUS wrote:

Russians are definitely the strongest at the moment, but they are adding in a new Meteor in the next patch and are tweaking some of the British and Russian planes so I might wait and see.

P47 is awesome ingame? I love the P47 in real life. Do they have the mosquito as well?

yep, but its FM is a bit weird at the moment. should be faster and a bit more nimble than it is (compared to the beaufighter anyway)War Man wrote:

playing as germany.
so far biplanes are better than the plane I have upgraded into.

Russian biplanes are really OP compared to other countries. I'm rank 10 British but for lols went back and used the free reserve Russian biplanes, ended up getting to rank 4 in a night using only biplanes and getting 12-15 kills every round. Double the machine guns of all the other countries reserve planes, gg Russian devs lol
I killed 7 guys in a row with one of the reserve german planes last night, right after crashing my upgraded plane
pew pew pew
yeah new patch sort of broke lots of things
goodbye flaps on brit planes!

Yeah it did break quite a lot, but the gradual patches since have been fixing them. No flaps on my spitfires is annoying
But if they tone down the ludicrous economy then I'll be happy enough.

Luckily I'm not in the 10+ area yet! But I'm still buying planes fairly frequently
