Well to weigh in on this MMO conversation. I am a beta tester for War Thunder, and it IS arcade mode.......for now. However, when played in the cockpit, it is as rewarding as anything I have experienced in CoD. I am taking the game modes with a grain of salt in anticipation of the editor, dynamic campaigns and large scale war that will also offer tank and ship battles (you will be able to control them individualy). The FM's feel ok, the complexity is about at the level of Wings of Prey, or 1946.
Thats about all I can say about it due to the NDA, but I can tell you I have never CTD'd out of a session. The game runs incredibly smooth. Those two things alone have me playing it more than CoD.
Lots of people love to rank up (Im not one of them TBH) but it does keep you coming back to try and edge in a few more points. We'll have to see how they other game modes are managed (full real historic battles) but over all I would not count WT WOP out just yet.
