  • For some reason completely beyond comprehension, we decided it'd be a great idea to see what War Thunder arcade battles are like, nearly six years after we last played... needless to say, it couldn't have been any more chaotic! Enjoy....
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    "Tis absolute clusterfuck..." exactly why I play arcade. Target Rich Environment gamemode, where you can jump in and start blowing shit up right away, and you keep doing that until game ends. You rarely ever run out of things to kill, and RTB is entirely optional.

    For all the information available, as to where your teammates are and how many enemies are chasing them, players just don't give a **** about helping each other.
    In Realistic there's a chance they're not helping because they don't see the enemies on your tail. In Arcade it's more obvious that "teamwork" is an alien concept to all the muppets around you.

      Teamwork is for the weak, you have engine, wings and guns on thy plane. The information in arcade if for laughing at your teammates who fail dismally. Seeing a teammate getting wrecked or failing a manuaver against an even worse enemy will never stop being funny

    People tend to enjoy arcade more than rb battles because its new player friendly, even if you're being matched with people near your player level, once someone plays arcade long enough, they most likely won't ever bother going Air RB ever. Like me.

    I've played nothing but Realistic, so I also suck in AB and have no idea what to do. Not only that, but it's not like I can learn all the maps from scratch, because I've played the vast majority of the Air Arcade maps on Ground RB settings at one point or another. So I know the map and I've already got plenty of practice on how to fly on it, but all that ingrained practice is inapplicable.!
