I wanted to love War Thunder. On the surface, it looks like the perfect mix of realism, action, and historical accuracy. However, after sinking many hours into it, I find myself more frustrated than entertained.

1. Progression System:
The grind is absurd. Unlocking new vehicles, modifications, and crew upgrades takes an unreasonable amount of time unless you're willing to spend real money. It feels less like a game and more like a pay-to-progress scheme. Even premium options barely ease the grind.

2. Matchmaking: #WhatMatchmaking
The matchmaking is utterly unbalanced. Constantly being put in battles against vehicles that vastly outclass your own due to the broken BR (Battle Rating) system is infuriating. It’s not fun to repeatedly get one-shot by opponents you have no chance against.

3. Economy Issues:
Repair costs for higher-tier vehicles are ridiculous. After a single bad match, you can lose more Silver Lions than you earn, forcing you to grind endlessly with lower-tier vehicles just to break even. This punishes casual players and rewards only those with endless time or deep pockets.

4. Gameplay Balance:
Certain nations have a noticeable advantage over others, creating an uneven playing field. Some vehicles feel blatantly overpowered, while others are completely useless. This ruins the experience of trying different tech trees.

5. Toxic Community:
The player base can be surprisingly toxic, especially for newcomers. Mistakes are met with insults rather than advice, making the learning curve even steeper.

6. Bugs and Optimization:
For a game that's been around this long, I’m shocked by the persistent bugs, graphical glitches, and performance drops. With a poor Netcode some servers are just unplayable with the packet loss and. The UI is clunky and outdated, which makes navigating the menus a chore.

Conclusion:
War Thunder has potential, but the overwhelming grind, poor balance, and frustrating economy make it hard to recommend. Unless you're a die-hard fan of military vehicles or willing to throw a lot of money at it, this game will likely leave you feeling more frustrated than entertained.

Okay so CSGO is a Good game but is let down by its huge communtiy of players not all are bad though, I have been playing csgo now for around 2 years and in every game its the same if it not a hacker its a smurf if not a smurf or hacker its a greifer steam need to fins away to deal with all these people like other compines do with there games titanfall for example. (If ur a caught cheating or greifing players you are put into a group of cheaters/greifers and on there ♥♥♥♥♥ cheating servers so u get to play with other cheaters and greifers)

And the people who realy care about the game get good servers and NO cheaters or Greifers i experince this is nearly every game of csgo i play and it is a joke now and has gone way out of steams contorl i feel they have given up on cheaters and they just accept it as the norm. this needs to change steam and it needs to change soon..

I feel discoraged to actul play a game of csgo these days i have lost all love for this game and its beacuse of a community of cheaters and greifing players.

CSGO can be a good game though and if you are not discoraged buy cheaters then it is a really good game but untill the steam get rid of all the cheaters and greifing players boosters this game will forever stay where it is an amazing game to watch provesional but not fun to play

Rating:
Game Overall 8/10
