War Thunder - Free to play... ONCE... Every 14 days...
Until you get a free repair.

Maybe the definition of free to play needs picking apart by legal experts...

Been playing since closed Alpha... When Wings of Prey was released (i will let you check the release date of that)... only got worse and worse... i mean they keep increasing repair costs and lowering rewards as well as bumping old vehicles into top tier fighting.

I'm used to it but i wont ever accept it until it's addressed.

Also... i cant play the game for 14 days... where is the free to play or getting used to a game mechanic when you cant play without paying cash!?... that is NOT free to play...

I've played up to rank 4 already in Germany without paying cash and I had about 1.2 mill in the bank before I dumped it all on crew levels

Wait until rank 5 and 6...

I have been on top tier for years... only got worse, not better.

I mean look at the Hunter FGA... that is a premium... that is a vehicle i was bought for my birthday when it came out... that is a vehicle i have PAID REAL MONEY FOR TO PLAY... and i cant even use it... oh and it's sh1te and over BR'd.

Where does it say i have to play them in order to play for free!? I have also played them for 10 years, it will be a cold day in hell before i play the fictitious WW2 crap again... and the ENTIRE WW2 section of this game is completely fictitious.

I mean, I don't play planes much, don't think I've gotten past rank rank2 in all nations, forgot which one though. I don't really plan on hitting rank 5 anytime soon, trying to get all my nations up to rank 4 and will probably stick there for awhile. I like WW2 tank combat

I think thee sooner we assume that currently f2p means "mobile game but with extra budget and prettier" the better...

Sooo many games adding that sort of stuff found in games you play while waiting at the train station..

to many defend this type of bussines practices. For as long as people pay for packs & premium, nothing will change.

one thing is grind, other is having a 2nd job named war thunder.

Free to Play, but also Free to Pay.

You playing top tier? Two actual Free to Play and hard ways. One is to keep the Silver Lions in stock by playing Low Tier vehicles to mitigate repair costs whilst earning a profit, the other is to literally git gud whilst playing Top Tier.

There's the third option, which is basically buying your way to the top-esque..... which is to buy GE to buy SL.

"Git Gud"

Where does it say that is a requirement in terms and conditions of free2play!? Since when do games prevent you from playing COMPLETELY because it's system is so broken!?

Also... how good do you have to be to be in a a subsonic plane, no radar, no rdw, short range missiles and no flares, whilst ONLY going up against supersonic aircraft, with twice as much missiles that are also long range, flares, radar, rdw and you still get a kill... but still go broke due to requiring killing 3 to break even... i think your expectation of "gud" is somewhere along the lines of "be superman" and break scientific reality...

Git Gud in the sense of being able to mitigate losses, IE: being able to do a 50/50 throughout the course of the War Thunder playtime, or earn a profit, however small.
