| World of Warplanes (Video Game) | comment |
A second installment in Wargaming.Net's massively popular and critically acclaimed series of combat MMOs, World of Warplanes follows pretty much the same premise, but with warplanes. Just like in World of Tanks, you start with a crappy early-30s prop-driven biplane, and grind your way up to the second generation jets of the Korean War-era, with the cutoff apparently being the introduction of radar sights and guided missile armament just after that war. Currently available in the game are Soviet, German, American, Japanese and British planes, although probably not on all servers simultaneously, some French and Republic Of China planes have been added as well.These are broken into three distinct classes — fighters, which shoot down enemy planes in hopes of achieving air superiority, ground attack planes that strafe targets on the ground, earning superiority points and easing AA pressure, and heavy fighters, which bridge the gap between them. The game features a somewhat complicated scoring model, awarding the team points for the destruction of enemy targets (both in the air and on the ground), with an additional superiority meter that slowly fills up when one of the teams is in the lead, which is reset when the enemy team scores. A team wins when this meter is full or all enemy planes are shot down, the latter being the notably more frequent occurrence.It was released worldwide on the 13th of November 2013 after more than two years of development and testing, and is currently in the deployment phase, so to speak. In October 2017, a new update (so-called "World of Warplanes 2.0") was released, with improvements to overall graphics, game mechanics and the new addition of Conquest game mode. | |

Anti-Air | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_1eed1d03 | comment |
Anti-Air: Basically, the game's NPCs in form of AI-controlled anti-air guns that can be pretty annoying, especially to the fighters, while ground attack planes may largely ignore them. When the enemy HQ is destroyed, their efficiency is greatly diminished. | |

Regenerating Health | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_1f92e4c6 | comment |
Regenerating Health: Damaged planes are able to recover a pittance of HP when not in active combat- you won't be able to heal yourself completely without an Airbase, and the amount of HP able to be healed can be reduced by taking more damage. | |

Real Place Background | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_20152e12 | comment |
Real-Place Background: Many of the game maps are based on the real places. "Port", for example, is a pretty faithful recreation of a Novorossiysk harbor, while "National Park" represents the Yosemite Valley (with the easily recognizable El Capitan rock), "Bay" is loosely based on the San Francisco Bay Area, and "Eastern Front" is Stalingrad. | |

Ramming Always Works | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_3114c1e5 | comment |
Ramming Always Works: But it also brings YOU down as well, in 99% of the cases. The only exception is when you're ramming a notably softened fighter (preferably a couple of tiers below you) with an undamaged ground-attack plane, with their insane HPs. And even then you may expect to lose as much as a half of your health. It is also seen as unsportsmanlike, and will subject you to a Cluster F-Bomb in the game chat especially in the case of a teamkill. Inverted. "Head-on Ramming" is almost always fatal whereas "Ramming from Behind" has a chance that one of the planes will survive. | |

Foregone Conclusion: If one side controls every point on the map, then Air Superiority is established and they collect Influence at an accelerated rate. On rare occasions this can result in a comeback but it usually ends the battle immediately with no chance of recovery for the opposition. | |

Scratch Damage | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_5405b144 | comment |
Scratch Damage: One of the serious problems in World of Warplanes is when planes fire upon enemies that are two tiers above them: Their guns are exceedingly weak to the point of only causing 0-1 HP of damage against them. This essentially means that the top tier aircraft in a match are almost always the deciding factor while the bottom tier aircraft are hopelessly outgunned and can do very little to affect the outcome of the battle. | |

Bribing Your Way to Victory: The game follows the same Free-to-Play model as World of Tanks, with a single integrated account shared across both games, should you play both. Though, just as in WoT, it isn't that restrictive, as premium planes cannot be upgraded, and premium ammo, while giving something of an edge, isn't really required for a skilled player to excel. | |

Mighty Glacier: Ground-attack planes are flying arsenals that deal ridiculous amount of damage to their dirtside targets and can easily one-shot fighters... if only they could bring their guns to bear, as these lumbering behemoths are usually so ponderous that they are in constant danger of crashing into the ground due to ill-conceived maneuvers. | |

Kill It with Fire: You can use Incendiary Ammo to increase the chance of setting an enemy on fire which will cause their plane to burn itself out or at least come out of the fight much worse. There's also Armor-Piercing Incendiary Ammo, which combines the set-them-on-fire bonus with extra "normal" damage. It's also expensive as hell. | |

Subsystem Damage | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_a6653039 | comment |
Subsystem Damage: The engine, wings, and tail of planes can get damaged, hampering mobility and maneuverability. Also, the pilot or gunner can get injured, causing a loss of accuracy (for the pilot) or being unable to shoot (for the gunner). | |

Acceptable Breaks from Reality | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_b6e1d40b | comment |
Acceptable Breaks from Reality: In real-life, Light Fighters are both faster and more maneuverable than Heavy Fighters. But in this game, Heavy Fighters are faster than Light Fighters for the sake of gameplay balance or else the purpose of Heavy Fighters would have been self-defeating. If an aircraft overheat its offensive guns, they'll eventually jam and force an immediate return to base to get them fixed. Overheating only reduces rate of fire in this game. Any fire on the aircraft is potentially fatal as it results in the aircraft being heavily damaged or even losing an engine or wing completely. In this game, fire only causes gradual damage-over-time. An aircraft can be defined as shot down if it fulfills several of these criteria for critical damage: wing cut, tail cut, alieron(s) broken, rudder broken, elevator broken, engine(s) destroyed, and pilot killed. None of that is possible. Airbases can repair aircraft overhead without requiring the airplane to land. | |

Cannon Fodder | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_c86a6f38 | comment |
Cannon Fodder: The lowest Tier planes are usually the first to die in battle. Air Defense Aircraft are AI-controlled planes that circle around most capture points- they're usually weaker than player aircraft and serve as a way for air-to-air fighters to capture a point. | |

Lead the Target: Bullets have travel time, so you'll have to get good at this in order to land your shots on maneuvering enemies. The 1.0 version had previously provided a lead indicator, which is absent in the 2.0 version. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Wargaming implemented a respawn mechanic to mitigate the severity of ramming and ground crashing. However, to discourage players from flying recklessly, a squall line will roll in at 7:00 to prevent reinforcements from arriving which means that losing your aircraft after the squall line appears will permanently remove you for the remainder of the battle. | |

Lightning Bruiser: Many Heavy Fighters can be this, as they're generally very fast, mount a large number of forward-facing guns, and pretty tough. Actually getting those guns to bear is another manner entirely. | |

You can use Incendiary Ammo to increase the chance of setting an enemy on fire which will cause their plane to burn itself out or at least come out of the fight much worse. | |

Enormous Engine: The Soviet I-16 and I-17 sport some very prominent engines, especially given how small the planes are themselves (even for single-seat fighters). Part of what gives the little guys their insane speed and tight maneuverability. | |

Artistic License – Physics | |
| World of Warplanes (Video Game) / int_fc225bec | comment |
Artistic License – Physics: The gravity in this game, if it even exists at all, is exceedingly weak and specific enough to only affect planes. Bullets will fly perfectly straight when they leave the gun. Your plane will not lose altitude and speed no matter how long it goes into a turn. During closed beta testing, players could actually fly through the ground which made them invulnerable to bullets. | |
