War Thunder is a game for everyone. It can be played by casual users (like me) who just like the WW2 setting and locations to hardcore enthusiasts who play with a joystick setup. I like this game because it gives you the freedom to play how you want. For example, if I am in the mood for a quick game I go with arcade battlles which take 5-10 minuts but if I want to sit down and actually play strategically I might go with simulator battles, which adds a new level of depth and realism to this game. Another pro of this game is the damage system. It doesn'ts rely on a static damage bar which decreases with each hit but instead uses a dynamic damage mesh around the plane to base damage on location of the hits. For example, you can get away with a few hits to the tail (which just lowers control) but 1 hit to your engine or cockpit will destroy that plane. This factor adds a new level of strategy not seen in many other games.
