Let's try out the ships and boats! arriving in f2p right now, downloading and updating the patch.
Helicopters too

I fly a lot. Realistic and arcade, lmk if someone wanna squad up on that later...But preferably some warship squads!

Tanks..only got low ones. No matter, i'm gonna go with the boats today :)

Hope my old pc can handle it!

Any players here?

What modes do u play? What vehicles? Airplanes/Ships/Tanks/Helicopters?

Here's a flight from a good pilot in arcade mode (I usually get around 1 for 1 with each plane) xD

Sometimes some more of course. Ok maybe this has improved some lately, but still.

(also exists realistic and sim, where the damage models are different, more realistic flight physics, can't reload in air, wings break at high speed etc)

Tanks here, don't know if the video is good or representative - cause..I don't play tanks much yet and have only watched 1-2 tank videos.

Oh btw, that video up there may not be representative either for normal playing...Usually there is some bombing of ground units etc.


Bomb planes right now have to get buffed again, they're not much fun to fly (too low armor and weak turrets at high tier) so if u wanna try it out, maybe wait with bomb planes until they fix that up again. Few bombers are still good tho..

Gonna see if i can find what ship fights look like.

It is. Don't think there is any real competition in flight combat?

Have not tried world of tanks, or world of warships, or warplanes either for that matter, so can't really compare...


I tried the first boat on US - was fun, not gonna play much today but it lived up to the expectations. Gonna go for a couple more arcade matches before I try realistic I think.

Is this a game where I can fly a plane and kamikaze into other players? Almost an FPS but I'm in fucking PLANES?

Yeah, people will hate u for it :D Hahaha... But I ram sometimes too, for fun or when necessary..Or if I feel outnumbered and "at least can take one down with me" :D...If i'm on fire is also a good opportunity to kamikaze

The japanese nation is my main btw. Got a ton of planes there.



There are also:

US, Russia, Germany, UK, Italy and France so far... only the 4 first has boats so far (couple of nations are in closed beta testing)
