HAVING THIS GAME IN YOUR LIBRARY IS LIKE HAVING A DISEASE. IT WILL DESTROY YOU FROM INSIDE.

PLAYING THIS GAME IS LIKE BEING IN AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP, THE ONLY WAY TO WIN WILL BE TO RUN AWAY.

PROS:

- The planes and tanks models are beautiful and realistic, albeit not always perfect, the physics and the vehicles simulator part seem to be overall very well made and funny to play.

- The battles, albeit flawed and not very realistic, can be really fun to play, especially if you love military vehicles.

CONS:

- It's basically a P2P game, with P2W elements, disguised as "Pay to go faster". In fact, not only grinding can take forever, but basically, if you are not a top players, a lot of vehicles will cost you to play more than what you will earn. Also, while you grind up your vehicles without paying for upgrade crews and modifications, you basically will play for a very long time with handicapped vehicles and crews.

- The servers are totally bonkers and they will repeatedly ruin your game experience.

- The maps and the game modes are boring, repetitive and bugs ridden (maps too small, missions impossible to accomplish, etc.).

- The gameplay is totally unbalanced, and in a very frustrating way. It is based upon an unsatisfactory Battle Rating level. You will end up constantly fighting and being slaughtered by better vehicles than yours and by better players than you.

- If you chose to play for free the grinding to unlock and then to "spade" (i.e.to upgrade) a new vehicle can be horrible. In addiction, you have to grind also your crew, because even the best vehicles with a low level crew act as bricks.

- The premium vehicles, and generally all the paid features are terribly expensive to buy, but often will give you a serious advantage over other players.

- This is not a beginners friendly game. The learning curve is very slow and painful, it lacks any "novice" mode to play, and the only way to (slowly) learn something is to be constantly and mercilessly bashed by the very expert core players.

- It seems that players are discouraged to play certain nations like Japan and Italy, or certain vehicles of other nations, with very high and totally arbitrary repair costs of the vehicles. This is really a dumb move, if you ask me, because it ends up only keeping away from the game a large part of the fanbase, me included, that it's interested mainly to play the aforementioned vehicles.

CONCLUSIONS: Avoid at all costs if you care for your mental health. The humiliation and the frustration that you will endure before actually beginning to learn how to play a bit better will be long, unbearable and simply not worth it. And then, the frustration will not end after you improve your skills, because you will still deal with how broken the game economy is, and how biased certain nations and their premium vehicles are against non premium ones.
If you are interested in playing italian or other "minor" nations vehicles, you are out of luck, playing them is extremely frustrating because of the BR unbalancement and the very high repair costs.
