They play a very important role in modern warfare and they are an important part of the air forces of many countries, that’s why they are coming to War Thunder! We are happy to announce a new vehicle type — combat helicopters!

Completely new gameplay will become available in the next major update with these heavily armed war machines!

Finally a game I can identify with.

Jesus, good thing they didn’t call them attack helicopters or there could have been 2 internet meltdowns today.

In all seriousness though, I’ve never played this how bad are the pay 2 win mechanics? Can a free to play player get competitive with it?

Yeah, this is What I'm curious about. From what it looks like on youtube vids, it's about the same as crossout with the pay to win stuff although the matchmaking seems like it's set up to allow for some annoying situations.

War Thunder is a great game you can either grind out everything or pay to speed it up. I've got about 150 hours into it I think. Air combat is great and they also support joysticks & mouse and keyboard on consoles.

I don't use KBM on console but I know it's available. If I'm being honest I can't really tell who is using it and who isn't. I don't worry about it when I play bcs I've never seen someone doing amazing manuvers I couldn't replicate myself with a controller.

Jesus CHRIST!!! I'm in tears right now!

I wish helicopters would come back to Battlefield. I'll be skipping BFV at least until it hits the bargain bin if not completely.
