After years of open beta development the game had a controversial Steam release in March as a pay-to-access game that was otherwise free with their own launcher, now has relaunched as completely free.
The game uses the War Thunder engine and imports their models for a realistic theater of war with planes, tanks and infantry.
Top steam review for your reading pleasure:
Good thing about this being on Steam is they can’t delete discussions that even mention pay to win, right? (NVM they banned me from discussions for mentioning pay to win and let their shills attack me and call me mentally ill without banning any of the toxic people who actually broke the TOS)
Game has so many unique mechanics that are pay walled with absurd prices: rocket tanks, paratroopers, flamethrower tanks, extra vehicle slots so you can spam 8 vehicles in a row while free players only get one, etc…not only is the game blatantly pay to win but they also renamed the Steam release to the original name of the game so they could justify deleting and hiding all the negative reviews from their initial failed launch, fraudulent damage control anyone? Intent to deceive customers isn’t acceptable, devs please remove pay to win or face a review bombing. AGAIN!
Focus should be to fix the AI bots and progression and remove pay to win instead of just simply adding more content only the whales can enjoy or use…not to mention the silver economy is so bad the game devs are being FORCED to admit the predatory monetization/progression was so horrible they can’t even hit 1,000 players at launch. Not to mention they claimed to have tens of thousands of active players on their website but suspiciously have less than a 1,000 after a full Steam launch?
Do yourselves a favor and leave a negative review and dump on this dev team, they deserve it and it is the only way gamers can fight back against this kind of nonsense.
I understand games need to make money, but breaking a game and selling the solution isn’t an acceptable way to run a business. Would you buy a car from a dealership that breaks your car on purpose and then sells you the solution for an absurd price? Don’t support pay to win it is anti gamer and anti gaming, the industry will become miserable and milked dry if we continue to give dev teams like this a single cent.
Gaijin has ruined many awesome games with pay-to-win monetization. They’ve got great game devs under soulless leadership.
