Our plumber who always raved about World of Tanks is now raving about War Thunder, currently in open beta, anyone else here played it ?

He said ships/planes/tanks all fight together on the same map which sounds rather fun, but in the vids I've seen so far it only seems to be planes, but maybe they are older videos

MightyJingles has quite alot of videos about it

Looks like just air at the moment, with land forces mentioned as an addon.

Won't be playing this then....look at those system specs!

System Specs: 3.07Ghz i7 CPU, 12GB DDR3 RAM, 480GTX graphics card, running at 1920x1080 resolution.

Those are the specs of Jingles' PC, not the game. As far as I can see there are no official specs listed for the game.

Planes don't really do anything for me so I haven't bothered trying it. Getting a little tired of all these grindy progression games anyhow.

Been a big part of War Thunder or World of Planes as it was known when I was in Alpha back in January 2012.
My squad 617 Sqdn Dambusters who are active on WW2Online are waiting for the World War server to open, none of this arcade rubbish. The graphics and playability have so much going for a WW2Online style ww2 server.

Alot of my friends are on the aircraft balance flight model team and recently they announced the bomber cockpits are starting to be built which is good news.
Yes the ground war and the ships will be added on later. They also announced it is coming to the PS4 for those who like the arcade feel.

It is definately the flightsim to watch out for over the next 12 months.

Played it on and off for a while although not recently, nothing quite like getting cut to shreds in my venerable Wellington ;)

Beaufighter is fun as is the Hurricane, haven't really got on well with the Typhoon and Spit but that's probably my flying :)

Have they sorted out the yaw bounce when aiming Peg?
