Pros: Game runs well and graphics are nice.

Cons: Huge paragraph below...

Russian bias is undeniable in this game. Russian vehicles are ridiculously OP compared to all other factions (Russian devs...go figure). Game's been out for quite a while and the devs STILL haven't done so much as to lift a finger to fix spawn camping or even add any decent spawn protection. "Realistic" mode is a joke when people are 3rd-person peeking over walls and bombing your tank spawn with planes. It's purely a pay-2-win game with the only decent vehicles being overpriced premium content. There's hardly ever any communication because the only way to talk is through text chat. You're better off just using teamspeak with some friends unless you wanna trust the douche who's just gonna use you as a meatshield so he can steal the kill after you put 5-10 shells into it, or the guy you were trusting with overwatch has a "squirrel" moment and leaves you so he can go kill a SPAA he saw so he can get an easy kill...so yeah the community is cancer in terms of teamwork. Oh and if you want helicopters...yeah that ♥♥♥♥ isn't happening unless you grind for 10 years or you pay the devs for it, though their handling sucks anyways. Also, lots of pointless features like HE and coaxial machine guns when there isn't even infantry in the game. Coax is only good for futile attempts to shoot down the aircraft that just spam bombs into the 1 or 2 spawn zones on the map. Kinda sucks because the game has a ton of potential but devs don't know wtf they're doing in terms of gameplay balance...and judging by how they've responded to complaints like this in the past, they simply don't care. I tried to give the game some time to see if they tried to fix it but it's only gotten worse. Two thumbs down.

EDIT: Just found out the devs are actively censoring negative comments about this game and their company on other forums. Very sinister company, Gaijin. THREE thumbs down.
