Same goes out to a certain Development Team who are gatekeeping certain historically controversial vehicles despite their whole Game being only semi-realistic and semi-historical at best.

Except the marketplace has absolutely ridiculous prices. Seeing random vehicles go well above 100 GJN is not uncommon - right now the Pak Puma is at 288 GJN! Who the hell is gonna spend that kinda money on a pixel tank??

The game is not voluminous enough to justify the repeated use of AI art, especially in the case of profile pictures. I can understand if random posters in a sprawling city have generic art work which doesn’t require artistic merit, but specific customization elements like profile pictures and screen backgrounds warrant a real artist.

Well I hope you’re enjoying your IS-7, but IMO nobody should have to pay these exorbitant amounts for pixel planes and tanks. It’s just ridiculous.

It absolutely is, tell me about it. I am literally dying to see a Rerun Event or a means of regular temporary price drops. Gaijin should be more considerate to collectors imo.

There’s a couple event aircraft I want like the Ki-94 and J6K, but buying just those two would literally cost me nearly 300€ and that’s just not gonna happen. IMO all event vehicles should just hit the tech tree a few years after the event.

What you could try is going long. Instead of one big payment, you do a small one you can manage once every month. Let’s say 50 bucks/month. It would take you 6 months, half a year, limiting yourself financially and hoping that the market value does not inflate in that timeframe. But in the end you have what you need.
This is how I got my IS-7, and currently I accumulated 750/2000 GJN on the market. Although getting an E100 that I am aiming for is highly unlikely :/
I didn’t play during this time and it feels real bad I’ll never have a chance to earn or play these vehicles… and so many others. Started in 2023 and so many things are just out of reach for players like me.

Sadly the forbidden german trio is most likely going to stay unobtainable, because Gaijin seems rather adamant on keeping them hidden. I really don’t understand why they aren’t just getting rid of them, if they are so bothered about them being in their game.
There actually are a bunch of vehicles that have been hidden for various reasons and in most cases I really don’t get why they were hidden and never brought back in folders to make them optional researches.

I get that vehicles that have been moved to their corresponding nation once those nations were released are going to remain unobtainable, but vehicles that were just hidden for being weak or redundant shouldn’t stay unobtainable.

The Tiger 10.5 and Panther 2 with the 88 should stay removed, but the coalition should be added back, it had actual mock ups
The uparmoured panther, panther 2 should be added aswell.
The Ostwind 2 how it’s currently represented i heard was not correct.
But this is my opinion

Technically speaking the Flakpanzer 341 is for its 3,7 cm Flak 341, which were belt fed 1000m/s improved Flaks, as beeing unique to the vehicle that would give a reason to add it, tho i have only had read about that in like 1 book and dont know how much or if the guns were even build.

They are not removed, existing owners can enjoy them unimpeded, I see these vehicles all the time. So either the rest of us get these vehicles, or those who have them will get them removed from their Account. But Gaijin will not do this, thus the Panther II and Tiger II 10 5 as well as Coelian have to come back for all players.

I don’t play German and I don’t really want to start, but I agree 100%, or they will remove it from everyone’s account and possibly give some compensation in the form of GE or add it back to the tree for each player

Meh, not missing out much on Tiger 105.
For some reason it’s 7.0, so it uptiers the rest of the 6.7 lineup into facing 8.0s.
M60s (even unstabilised M60A1s), later T-54s… etc, it’s just madness.
how am i gate keeping stuff i grinded for and wanted to play
It is rather Gaijin than you who are gatekeeping tbh. Although you offend me every time you are in the same match as me with those vehicles.
