So far. I have put over 170 hours into this game. And it is a lot of fun. I have spent my time split between Warfare and Operations mode. In response to a lot of the stuff I see. The "cheating issue" really isn't as bad as some make it out to be. Yes. I have run into some questionable players in Operations. But I have yet to see anything that was beyond blatant. In Warfare. Do to player count and map size. I honestly can't say I experienced anything that set off alarm bells. But this could mostly just be due to player count and general chaos of the match. Though, one critique I would like the devs to consider. Is gear scarcity. Operations could benefit from gear and ammo; particularly level 5 or "gold" tier armor and ammo. Being harder to obtain and generally more scarce. Fights can be extremely one sided based on armor and ammo. Now I am used to games like Tarkov, where you can and will go down in a single bullet. But Delta has a much more arcade like fast movement speed. With no true character inertia. Making it extremely difficult to over come a disparity in armor and ammo, when engaged in rapid fights. I'm not saying it should be un-accessible. But a little more scarcity to make fights a little more even. Draw them out a little bit longer. Rather than just having better ammo and armor and running directly into others to determine the outcome of a fight. Another thing that would be beneficial. Would be gear and cost limits on certain mode difficulties. To prevent absolutely juiced players from destroying easy tier servers. Where you will find new, low level, or broke players trying to either learn or climb out of debt. Though, overall. The game is a lot of fun. In both modes. And I recommend it. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

Still has bugs and quality of life updates that need to be made. But, this is by far one of the best releases of 2024. Can't wait to see what the modding community will make of this game, if Stalker GAMMA is anything to go by.

Very enjoyable game. Don't pick it up and expect to blast your way into higher tier resources and equipment. This game definitely gonna require a time investment. But overall. It's been rather enjoyable to play.

I have not played War Thunder for an extravagant of time, like some others. But the grind in this game was already bad enough as is. Compared to games like World of Tanks, where I currently am sitting on 40+ top tier vehicles. The grind here is substantially worse by a large magnitude. The economy was already challenging enough to turn good profit on, in order to afford that next vehicle. But with the changes that are being made. It makes it that much harder to progress. Playing with premium time and premium vehicles seem to almost be the only way to succeed in the credit and RP departments anymore. And when pressed about this issue. Gaijin produced some of the most tone deaf and accusatory responses regarding the situation. And even went so far as to blame the players for these issues. The developers don't care in the slightest for the opinions of their player base or the quality of their game anymore. They purely want to maximize profit off you and separate you from your money at all costs. I don't recommend picking this game up currently. Especially if you are a new player. It's not worth it.

This game is amazing. I don't know what it is about it that hooked me as much as it did... But my first play through was 14 straight hours of enjoyment. I didn't sleep... just played Stardew Valley.

I played this game quite a lot back in the day. Unfortunately the game and all of its services on the US and possibly EU side were shut down many years ago at this point. So do not install this game, it is not playable. You will recieve a server error upon game launch because there are no servers to run it anymore. Again, game shut down, do not install. Although I will still give this game a thumbs up for the good times it gave me.

This game is excellent! The player base is rather small. But the progression is easy, easy to play, moderately difficult to master style is great. Needs more player!

Take 2 has their heads firmly up their collective a**es send a C&D order to openiv for producing a program that allows modding of the single player game. NOT GTA Online. So please, tell the one company adding new content and playability to the single player game mode that R* and Take 2 have NOT provided any extra content or DLC since the game launched, to shut down and put a dev team out of their jobs.Screw you Take 2. But I guess single player doesn't sell your idiotic micro payment shark cards does it?
