Early Access Review
There has never been a game that has made me scream in sheer terror as much as Squad. I didnt expect to get sucked into a milsim as much as I did, but here I am with probably acute PTSD from some of the unforgettable memories I've received while playing this game. Don't forget to listen to your Squad Leader and work as a team, or else you'll waste 2 hours of a match losing. And make sure you check if those are your team mates on the map before you decide to shoot.

Alright. Yeah. Everybody's heard the 'Russian Bias' excuse too many times. If you honestly think Russian Bias is a thing, you've probably been living under a rock. It's a joke. It's old. It's over.

Anyways, War Thunder. This game has been on a journey of development for the past few years and has been constantly improving to greater heights with each update. In all honesty, it's probably the most improved game I've seen in my days of playing games. Over time, this FREE-TO-PLAY MMO has added more and more contant, constant bug fixes, and amazingly stunning graphics. It delivers perfectly to a niche audience, and introduces new crowds to an environment that can discover to like. When I first started, I didn't know anything about planes, anything about war history, whatever. Even so, War Thunder had shown me something I would never thought to have loved. The game brings fantastic visuals, amazing optimization for even the most potato computers, accuracy of vehicles beyond belief, and game mechanics that so many were looking for.

But, with every great tower, is a shadow. As perfect as I make the game seem, it does have it's problems. War Thunder's updates always brings about a game-breaking bug that gets meme'd about all over the community. With every new vehicle addition is an unbalanced feature to wreak havoc among those not interested. The grind for these vehicles, is absolutely torturous and aggregious, especially in the newly added combined forces, where the experience gain for tanks has still not been fixed, even to today. Constant games, over and over and over again for a vehicle you might not even enjoy! Alas, with the team you play with, those games will be a guaranteed Hell. The community for this game is all over the place. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's horrid, sometimes you get a nice mix of two sides.

However, we must give a leniency to Gaijin. Even though we have a bloodbath between good and evil sides of this game, it's still a very much FREE-TO-PLAY MMO. We can't forget that. We're gonna need golden eagles, premiums, vehicle packs, and whatever it takes so that Gaijin can actually get paid for the work they've done! This game is amazing in it's own light, absolutely! Give Gaijin some credit, please! They've put in so much work over the years for such a beautiful game, for us niche audiences to enjoy! They try their best, I'm sure they do! Please, have some leniency for the game!

There is absolutely room for improvement for the game still, and improvement Gaijin provides us. No matter how long it takes, Gaijin will work on War Thunder to sparkle and shine the polished turd that it is.

War Thunder is an absolutely fun free-to-play MMO that involves fighting in mock, realistic, and simulated battles with planes, tanks, and ships, dating from the Spanish Civil War to the Cold War.

EDIT: I was wrong lol Gaijin bad
top tier is unplayable with the inclusion of VTOLs

EDIT 2: Game still sucks
