A friend introduced me to War Thunder. I actually like flying tier 0 crap aircraft. The focus on ground attack is a refreshing change from turning dogfight 24/7. It is not as team centric as Guns of Icarus, and the lack of voice chat is quite annoying. The best way to get kills and avoid being killed is to shoot some one while they are trying to shoot something else and get your teammate to shoot the guy who is trying to shoot you.

oh yeah War Thunder is really satisfying to play, even though I'm still struggling with the full-realism mode

The thing that turned me off of War Thunder was ramming.

That said, in Star Conflict, you can ram and not insta-pop, and its in spaceeeeee.

If you have a PS3, I highly highly suggest picking up Puppeteer. It's a platformer game, but very rewarding, and fantastic writing.

As a bit of a 4x fan I recommend Distant Worlds, it's a bit expensive to get all the expansions, but it is best played with the expansions.

There was ramming?

As in, if you got the upper hand on someone, they would try to ram you with their plane, taking both of you out. It was pretty lame and common.

I can see how that could be an annoying gimmick.

That's what Barrel rolls, snap rolls, and s-turns are for...right?

But that's always the problem with combat flight sims...

Hah yeah, the arcade mode can get quite "rammy" to say the least. I don't really mind though as that game-mode is so unrealistic to begin with. More like Crimson Skies than a flight sim.

It's funny how people (me included) value kills more than their own life. Though if you ram correctly (/have a shit ton of luck), only one of you dies.

I'm attempting to play outlast for the youtubes. It scares me. I scream a lot.

For the youtubes? Are you doing a Let's Play? I've watched one of outlast already. The guy blubbered like a baby and had the widest, most fear filled eyes I've ever seen in a gamer.

Pretty great :p

Outlast is really disappointing though... A shame, as one or two parts were REALLY good :/.
