With realistic damage models, it's a joy to be able to get back to base with your right wing being held together with some old taffy gerald found in the back of the hanger.

Many of us long time WarThunder players have been straining under the ridiculous grind and silver lions cost. Going as far as to not recommend this game to friends for the ridiculous grind and meager in game currency earnings.
This time Gaijin struck a nerve with the community, planning to increase costs so substantially any tier is unprofitable to play. Going as far as to make costs for high tier jets 20k + Silver lions. Why punish players who enjoy the game enough to grind to modern-ish jets only to be met by a horrid pay return on their in game currency. Same goes for the modifications and parts that accompany vehicles. Attempting to fly or ride in a vehicle with maximum modifications will likely result in opening your SL wallet to gaijin and having everything stolen.

I personally have over a year of premium time and many different premium vehicles that I genuinely enjoy using. Even with these buffs any SL gain is nearly moot. While I am happy with their cancelation of the economy downgrade, much more must be done to recover favor.

Review bombing will not stop until the economy is improved. No longer will we sit idly by as the devs mock us for wanting cheaper repair costs for vehicles.

Pipe spaghetti, 10/10

Do you love having a scaled down version of city skylines with more micromanagement? Then get this game, so many hours and in game years used improving so many colonies.

I have 2 problems with this game.

The biggest problem I can see is the lack of buildings to place. While it's fun for the beginning of the game Tropico has a problem of scooping out buildings that would add quite a bit to the game. The designers instead wish to add these buildings into "DLC' packs that add a singular mission and one building ; It's borderlining a scam!

The road tool is limited to say the least. It's extremely finicky in where it will get fussy over building too close to an existing intersection. There is no upgrade tool to help traffic flow. When you build a massive city the roads tend to get clogged on these two-way one lane street, It's insanity!

Other than those two hiccups, its ok. It's playable, and fun.I will only recommend buying it when a steam sale comes around.
