The Wikipedia article describing it

Can we SERIOUSLY think about renaming this one, now?

It was always confusing with the 'World of Tanks' out there, already, now that they are making 'World of Warplanes' and 'World of Battleships', I can't see any way the market at large won't confuse the series.

Isn't the new sim by Gaijin that most of us here would be interested in, now called WarThunder/World of Planes?

My point is that they need to knock the 'World of Planes' part out of the title, entirely.

It's only going to cause confusion.

World of Warplanes is the new one being produced by Wargaming.net
Look for an interview with the World of Warplanes Producer soon.
Yes, it is the follow-on to the World of Tanks.

SimHQ's August 2011 interview on World of Planes with Gaijin's Anton Yudintsev is here:

War Thunder sounds even more retarded.

It sounds like Jet Thunder, which itself sounds very 80's.

after birds of steel I'm a bit more interrested in war thunder... and relieved that it won't be the arcade experience of World of Airplane (no cockpit? no single player?... No ME!), if War theunder is a better Birds of steel ON PC... i'll be glad to play with it.

I've been getting mixed up between the two for awhile now, at one point I thought they where the same game...real confusing.

I think it's quite safe to say that War Thunder is being built on the basis of Birds of Steel, with the promise of improving the scope a lot and using all these planes and theatres for more content. Time will tell, but a good way to get an idea is to sign up for the beta...
