Yes, this battlepass is underwhelming. Its at Murmansk level of underwhelmingness for me.
Nevertheles, all the new players should consider grinding for a certain vehicle from warbond shop, being IAR-81C.
Its a great early CAS aircraft, powerful weapons, fun to use with no TT equivalent.
And 50% of its fuselage is bober approved…
thats how i can see you missed the point. We WONT get unique to tech tree, but we also didnt get the unique in the event.
I would justify the premiums and event vehicles being copypastes of tech tree machines IF the game didnt add 50% of the uniques as premiums aswell. But as i can see, them VIDAR (despite being serial widespread machine),T58 (and all its t54 family despite, god they at least could`ve made the t54e2 a tech tree if they didt want the ocsilating turret be a tech tree machine), M6A2E1, and many many more being either premium or event. And now we see the events being flooded with copypaste, thus we receive LESS free or cheap interesting machines, but we see a HUGE increase of amount of premium machies, much of them being not copypaste (at least up to rank 6)

Maybe for a cheaper price but 2,500 GE for another copy paste plane and useless ship? hell no.
Can’t even get the model right

It’s a skin not the same plane
Might I suggest that rather than continuously having these arguments, that Gaijin reconsiders how the sub-tree system works? These is at least on good constructive thread on the forum about alternative methods of implementation.
Failing that put Israel back into the USA tree, it never should have been a Nation to begin with… I mean in game of course.
EDIT: link to the Sub tree post cuz people asked:

Classic toxicity because you don’t like the nation of Israel in real life don’t bring it in game the have a lot of domestic stuff to be added and Greece can fill same gaps too

what you mean the
Part? It is literally a nessacery disclaimer as if I said that about the IRL Israel I will be thrown in prison for 5 years in my county, I wish to avoid a misunderstanding resulting in that.
We get the meaning, instead of saying" it shouldn’t be a TT in game" you added the dots to imply it so yes anyone can easily understand what you meant
… means continuation of thought or after thought, I made my statement about the TT then realized I needed to clarify it. Beyond that read what ever you like into it. Not my pig, not my farm.
Cool, good thing community just writes little bit on Forum and accept this insult of Battlepass… hey it is what it is

It would seem that enshitification has reached a new level. It is a standard business practice to slowly reduce the value of something that started out great, and the BP is a perfect example of this trajectory.
I question how far they are taking this tbh.
In the end the best way to try and ameliorate the situation is for us players to vote with our feet, so I won’t be buying this BP or even grinding it. The BP with its daily tasks is a great organising principle for the play sessions of many players. If it no longer functions properly because the rewards are not interesting, they might want to take at least a couple steps back on the enshitification spiral.
Tbh even if they don’t, it doesn’t really matter at this point, this BP is such a nothingburger that skipping it hardly takes any effort.

What was the last rank 5 reward?)
Do you even remember we HAD SUCH at the start of the BP?

Can you provide the link? Im interested in seeing what is proposed.
In my opinion, the “subnation” logic is pretty good, but the execution is hardly of any use. Look at the SA subtree! It was great, it added several wheelers and interesting unique modifications of the techs. Or how the indian subtree opens a path for even more uniqie modifications of the techs for britan. But devs decide to cut corners as much as they can, so only indian tank that isnt copypaste slop is T-90S (which could`ve been added to USSR anyway).

Smin, the fundamental problem of this BP is its overall composition. People are focusing on the Spitfire because it’s the main reward, but the Spitfire being the main reward would have been better received if not for the combination of factors. The ship reward is not very exciting either, and the box contains only ships, making this (correcr me if I’m wrong) the first Battlepass in WT history to not feature all three major service branches featured in the game. Even the Warbond Shop this time around feels mediocre and it suffers even more from the contrast with the previous WB shop, which had a great selection.
Obviously not all BPs can be bangers. But this isn’t just “any average run of the mill BP”. It’s the worst I can remember in the game, and it comes at a time when the value of the BP has been generally decreasing. Of course people are drawing conclusions from that.
I appreciate that you’re doing your job, which is why I tried to package this comment as clear feedback rather than just whining or pointing fingers, hopefully it’s of some use to you guys. Have a good one.
as far as they can before sales drop off, we have gone from 4 GOOD vehicles to 2 trash ones and will continue the trend until people stop paying for it.
I think this is the one I was thinking of:

For an American oscillating turreted tank, there is still hope as the T-57 isn’t in the game yet, it was the same fear about the BMD series when the BMD-4 and BMD-4M came as non-TT vehicles, and in the end we still got the BMD-4M2. Gaijin generally adds prototypes to the right side of the tree cause they make for good event or premium vehicles, but the VIDAR was something of a fad that they had going with SPGs at the time, like how we got the PZH-2K as a premium in Italy. The logic behind a lot of the ones that are ww2 and early post war is that there are a lot there anyway, which there are but it’d be nice to get some more in folders.
What i mean is, if gaijin magically adds t57 to tech tree, but t54 t49 t58 are still premiums or events, its just proves how they make paywalls all round.
Same with BMD: we didnt get BMD-2s or 3s to tech tree, but we firstly got BMD-4 as event, cloned BMD-4M as paywall premium, and WORST version of BMD-4 (as M2) as tech tree variant later. So they again kept the better and more MASS variant behind paywall.
well they did copypaste of german machine as premium to italy, nothing particularly new. But the vidar is strange for sure.
And with WW2, they tell they keep prototypes or unregular machines as premiums, so again uniques behind paywall.
They dont give us more uniques as tech tree stuff, they keep doing C&P to tech trees (e.g.5 M55s lol) but uniques behind paywall
