    Ok, so a couple of things about this game (if you are interested, idk)
    -Don't turn fight against light fighters in heavy
    -when numbers next to the enemy glows red it means that he is in range of your guns (they also have "effective range" where they deal max dmg, see those green bars on the right in hangar)
    -you can fire your guns independently (like only MG's when your cannons are overheated) but you must bind buttons in settings
    -press "F" to zoom
    -bind "pitch up" to spacebar so you don't have to swipe your mouse across whole desk during turns
    -ramming mechanics are bullshit
    -battles can be one-sided due low player count
    -you can earn premium time, free exp and gold in weekly crates (exp and gold shared in tanks, premium in all three games)

    This game was a good near no-brainer plane game that was an alternative for the nasty UI and grind in WarThunder or the need for a joystick in other flight games.
    It is a fun game to play if you like fast-paced and chaotic battles. Sadly, there are no true PvE modes, so you get stuck against players thst fly the same planes over and over and have found every sweaty tactic.
    Two biggest problems are the bomber meta where one good bomber pilot decides the match no matter how good/coordinated the other team is.
    Second problem which WG can't necessarily fix is the elitist mentality with many of the regular players. They want little to no changes unless it benefits their style of play. Complain about it in the forums and you will get savaged and then hunted down in-game. Rather toxic...
    I do love Warplanes, but it needs some serious work, primarily in gsme modes as well as in damage mechanics. WG have done better with bug fixes lately.

They can not possibly be making money anymore, if they where id be SHOCKED! I literally didn't start encountering REAL people till I got to tier 4 or 5 and EVERY TIME it was in a plane with Cannons that absolutely SHRED my poor American Plane. (at least 1 person was real.)
    And it is pretty much impossible to tell if anyone is Human ether less they have a very "obvious" name.

      Learning how to fly your plane and awareness are what keep you alive in the game. Like every game you got to be aware of your planes strengths and weaknesses. You can shred anyone and anyone can shred you. You gotta play the game for a while to get a true feel for it but once you do, you can have some epic battles. I think to many judge the game with to little experience of playing it or giving it a real chance. For me, it does not matter if they are human or not, i treat them all as if they are!

    Next time you try this sea lord, you need to look at your plane type and the maps. You cant just kill the other team and win. Its possible, but most games end before its possible. You must turn systems to win on points, if it goes long enough a squall line comes and stops respawns.

    I still play it. Every couple of months I go back, usually when they have a new plane event. I just wish they would add a new map once in a while or bring some old ones back. It's basically on life support though. Being propped up by the other 2. I'm noticing a similar trend in wows lately with player populations though. it has a way to go but warning signs are there in lower tiers.

    Have played this game on and off for yrs and honestly it can be a bucketload of fun.Yea the numbers are down but you do get games with half the team being human and believe me you wish they were bots lol For me it is the best of the 3. I played tanks and warships but planes are my thing. Sealord you played your heavy fighter like a fighter, it has a specific role it is intended for and that is taking out bombers and ground attackers. Abd yes it is only a skin over a frame like other planes, it says heavy but it dosnt have armour unless you add it in an upgrade slot. I am the older generation so dont have expectations like all the kiddies. For me the game flows and plays very nicely. The bots can be quite tricky too, which is fun. The middling tiers i like 5-7 but i also enjoy the top tiers with the crazy speeds they do. The twisting, turning, trying to out manouvre the other human in the same plane as you is great fun. I dont understand all the hate the game gets, just because it isnt as shiney as all the others. I find the game far more playable than tanks or warships, you are in the sky, unable to hide, azz hanging out lol Heroes are born in this game lmao

      Of course you can dodge. Just depends on your ability to make the plane do what you want. You can do some great manouvers when you get used to the controls. I have had tons of fun in the game. Two of my fav planes are the American P40 and the German Bf109 both tier 5. For me the game is very under rated.

    Biggest reason the game takes flak is be a v2.0 took most of the fun out of seal clubbing. Respawns can hunt down the goons that punked them off with now full health. There were alot of try hards going in flights of 4 and steamrolling the old school death match. The hard core competitive payout is gone. These games attract a highly competitive type of player that does not have fun when losing to "inferior" players because the respawned 3 times and finally got a kill.

    I normaly dont say these kind of things sea lord, butt have you tried being better at the game, or using a plane that suits your playstle i recomend for you the spitfire line or the two japanese light lines.
    Also i took a look at the stats of a fully upgraded mosquito and mosquito 26 and they are almost the same, well not really, the mosquito 26 is a little bit worse.
    Also the way you play heavy fighters its no the rigth one, you need to maintain momentum search the planes that you can take down or mangle severely, and one thing to note is that the mustang line is almost a direct counter to heavy planes.
    I understand that this is a game you only play once a year, and understanding the mecanics/getting the hand of something in a long time can be hard, yet i still think you can apreciate this game for its strong points and not just trow an uniformed critique.

Your plane only has a skin over a frame, why do people expect to survive for any length of time? Fighters, heavy fighters and multirole fighters cannot take a beating, get smashed quickly if you dont have your head screwed on, glass cannons basically. The bombers and ground attackers last longer because you can add armour and things for defence in upgrade slots but mainly because they have bigger health pools. Learning to fly and awareness keep you alive in the game, whatever gets shot at you. No one i have come across in the game uses gold ammo, everyone uses Universal ammo.

    So, this prompted me to see what this game has become. It's just as I remember plus a kick in the pants from WG. What few players there are terrorize anyone with heavy fighters that are way imbalanced making grinding anything and game enjoyment nigh on impossible. No new substantive content beyond some premiums in years that I can see. And just to give that extra something special. I was a BETA tester and it appears my account has been reset to a regular player account with all post release progress and goodies from the BETA lost. Most likely when they did the game overhaul a few years back. Still has potential but as usual with any WG title, balance and MM ruin it which is stupid. They already have had to start using bots as fillers in all three titles, get rid of the +2 -2 and that will in part remedy some of the fun issues the games have.
