That’s actually not true
I’ve had my wing rip off with one bullet, other times it eats a whole ammo load. It all depends on what it hits, wing spar or fabric, and what kind of bullet it is.
The plane icon is just to tell you what’s been hit
pink and its been hit
black engine says that it’s going to die soon
color of the wing gives you a general idea of the condition its in and how much lift you can get out of it
etc.

LOL, always people from WT sits there and say “alsoo HP bars on planes? really??”

You know that in WT that little plane icon to the left that goes from white to red to black as you take damage or lose a section?? Well, guess what that is a HP indicator also. Just because it does not have a numerical value and a bar above the plane in front of you, does not mean that its not an HP indicator. Its just represented differently in WT.

To truly not have a HP/Damaged Indicator, then you should have to pan on your plane to see the actual damage that you have taken and you would just know how the plane feels when a section is damaged.

It wasn’t even that. The main issue here was Persha got handed development of a game from the ground up when they had ZERO experience in doing so. Yes, they did have experience in masking graphics for other games, but had zero clue on how to make an update or how to balance one plane to another.

Piece of shit of a gaming monopoly fucking itself?

Good news for me.

A piece of shit game dying?

Good news for me.

On top of that they should’ve killed all the developers via Russian mafia… Because, you know, Stalinist principles of efficency is stronk. You’re good you stay alive. You’re bad and you die.

WOWP is actually a good game with two serious flaws…..

1. They need to at least DOUBLE the HP Pools of planes….. When a plane at your own tier shoots you down in 10 sec’s not even giving you a chance to dogfight, there is a problem.
WOWS has it right….. you have a chance. Though they need to reduce the torpedo damage.

2. When there are plenty of people in the que at your tier, they need to start a game, instead of making you wait 5 min’s. People don’t want to wait to play a game.

These two reasons are why I stopped playing WOWP twice now….. Get a clue Wargaming.

Air combat games have been done to death. Wot succeeded because it was tanks, not planes. Wows has a good chance because there arent many (if any) good ship games.

Why do you think WoWS won’t suck as WoWP does?
From Alpha-Testers I heard WoWP relies much more on teamplay then WOT does.
Given this, how should WoWS work?

Is anyone surprised at all? I gave WoWP no more than 1-2 years before they’d have to start cutting staff and skimping on server capacity. It won’t be long before they have to close down the game. It’s just not economically sustainable to have only 800 people playing the game during peak times.
