I'm loving it so far
I used to play world of tanks, but my biggest gripe was that the game involves an awful lot of camping and you are not rewarded for taking risks. I also hated that you can just instantly die or become cripped way too easily.
I can't decide which tech tree to go up though which is quite annoying - I wouldn't mind owning a BF 109, spitfire, corsair, or zero...... so right now I have the tier 4 BF 109 and the tier 4 Japanese fighter.

Would like to try it out, but sadly not enough space on my HDD and too lazy to delete something else. Damn you 400GB HDD which is only 372GB big!

I'm on the Tier 4 UK Fighter and heavy Fighter.
Only about 11k xp from the Spitfire now,, cant wait to try it.
I really want to do the American Fighters next.
Its easy to avoid head on collisions  Just don't go right at them and turn before they get to you.

Collisions are very common in tier 1-3, but after that people smarten up (and so do you).

I dislike it, it has many of the same flaws of World of Tanks yet it also misses out of what makes WoT so good, namely cover and excellent spotting mechanics.
I only played about 10 matches or so but it really wasn't for me.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

I found War Thunder to be more fun, but that might just be me and my group.

I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own... |

Tried war thunder, the controls are pretty terrible on it so far.

Really? I'm finding it easier than World of Warplanes. Oh well.

Tried it again last night, after setting the weapon range from 400 to 100-150, im able to get plenty of kills with no issues along with a few other tweaks.
