and may i just say about this, The 178 people that saw this post. voted for it to be brought back, but it still isnt back in the game
This “tempoary restrictions” has been going on for 2 years… This is more like Perminant restrictions than Temp ones…
Temporary restrictions in decals for new players - News - War Thunder.

and ive managed to find this on a WT post from 2015… Why are decals getting hidden/removed man.
Just make it so we can have our decals. But the ones they dont want shown in games. Make it so thoes ones are client sided decals instead of global ones.
they already do that with our custom skins.
7th of november 2024 one year later and gaijin still have nothing to say. they would rather add more useless shitty decals/decorations and more fucking jets than add back a tonne of HISTORICAL decals that are on file that the community fucking want and would pay any price for! FOR FUCKS SAKES YOU RUSSIAN TWATS, LISTEN TO YOUR COMMUNITY!!!
ah i got the dates wrong but who cares lmao
Still waiting and pray for return of these decals.
Absolutely down for this, no reason older WT players should be able to have these decals while any new players can’t, throw them in chests, throw them as achievements or just straight up for GE. Literally anything would lol
I’ve seen more swastikas and Zs than ever before, and here we are… The customization system is a complete mess but developers don’t seem to be interested in reworking it.
they need to swap the amount of decorations on ur tank with the amount of decals. IMO having 4 slots isn’t enough. and having 6 different bushes covering the entire tank is TOTALLY a good thing have
Just saw a guy with the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment decals and wondered how he got them, i made research and came to the sad conclusion that they removed it, please gaijin we want realistic decals, not a dragon or a Eva Elfie sticker on my tank. Cus in a couple years this is gonna look like youre average battlepass game with no realism and fictional shit (WoT). Bring back realistic decals!
I’m new to WT forums, did this get passed? Or does anyone know if Gaijin will implement this since it has so many upvotes? Realistic decals are important to me for all nations, the decals I personally would like to see are more variations of the balkenkreuz like the all white one for example, so that my earlier German tanks are more historically accurate. The sickle and hammer would be good to add as well, as it was painted on some early tanks. I’d also like to see more historical tank division decals for all nations, as some tanks are missing their divisions. For example, the captured KV-2 for Germany (12th panzer division), the captured T 34 for Germany (4th panzer division), and the 8th panzer division would be good to add as well for the KV-1B since they used KV-1’s and it’s part of the German tech tree, but also the appropriate Finnish division markings/decals for people who want to play it as a Finnish vehicle, which it is. One more thing I think would be good, is adding individual numbers (1-9, and 0) in a historically accurate font matching whatever nation they belong to, so that we are not stuck using the same 4 or 5 number sets over and over which some nations don’t even have.
not yet atleast.
+1 (not with swastika version, just the old one)
+1 Please bring back early war balkenkruz, i need it to historically mark tanks!
So what is the name of this decal used and in what category is it located in the game?
He’s talking about using 7s to make Zs and crude swastikas.
i do love the fact that this is 100% yes with 347 people voting yes for it
I hope they bring these back with the monthly decals now going on once again.
Please!!! I need that early war white Balkenkreuz!
+1
