Oh and it's free so you might as well download and give it a go.

 

[Spangles]

Not impressed with the B24, which is the same as a lot of bomber crews too apparently. B17 is a lot better I would say, especially the E, which is just beastly.

 

[MikeTheNative]

I'm enjoying ground forces beta becoming open, some many noobs for me to kill.

 

[FirebarUK]

I always found the B24 to be harder to shoot down than the B17, at least when hunting them

 

[Vidar]

I'm confused... I always thought the tank and plane games would be integrated??? Or did I just dream that?

 

[MikeTheNative]

It's disabled for the time being, not sure why. It was actually running and working in the closed beta test so I can't imagine it will be far off. I doubt you will ever see it in Arcade though, just realistic and simulator.

 

[nIckEl101]

i believe it's to give people a chance to rank up their tanks first, before they introduce planes.

This. Before I realised this I'd unlocked the flakpanzer, was really looking forward to shooting down some planes

 

[matt_fsr]

Would this be a good game for me to get into?

Try it, and when you load it up select Russian as your first nation.

Their biplanes are some of the best in-game, and you get a free premium biplane and the Russian one is insanely good, compared to the other nations' offerings.

If you don't like it after a few games / weeks, nothing lost. But it does improve if you (carefully) inject a bit of cash into it. Ask any of us idiots for advice on what to get / not to get if you decide you like the game.

Carefully?? not a word often associated with us and Warthunder!!

good luck with that!! lol.....only kidding. get the game downloaded give us your in game name and apply to the squad, we'll give you a run down on the basics

when i first started playing this game, it was only really the kind of game i'd have played off and on for an hour or 2, but the game is SO SO much more fun in a squad.....even if we are guff at the game!

 

[RevBillyG]

We are not guff, we are legends.
Or legendary guffs if you prefer.

This Legendary Guff is stuck at work until very late at night (Tues 20.05.14) fixing a priority order I am unlikely to be able to play with you guys tonight before I succumb to sleepage.

Bums.

Its there but not in arcade.
Realistic battles can have planes and tanks.

 

[Vidar]

I think I really need to join you guys for a squad battle some point soon.... tomorrow night perhaps?

You'll have no problem finding some of us on to squad with mate. I'll be on from about 6 onwards.

If you mean tonight, I'll probably be on... and shock horror, actually able to talk on TS! (wifey out doing a bat survey)

What planes have you got in your best lineup(s)? We're usually fine to drop to adjust lower tiers, there's usually good fun to be had around 2.0-2.3, 3.0 or 4.0 lineups.

Had a lovely 15 - 3 k/d match with my Russians 4.0 a couple of days ago, following it nicely with a 15 / 2 match with my Brits 4.0!

 

[Boycey0211]

3.7 is without a doubt the best tiering, i shall probably be on slightly later this evening but will be on nonetheless

 

[hughtrimble]

This game is what got me to build my own rig.

Still yet to buy it though...
