But still greece does import things from israel

[Deadsnake_war2]

Regarding many sub trees, there is still nations that is missing their air forces, is there plans to add it in the future?

[UMBRAL_STALKER-psn]

Holy leopard copy paste

[Leinadmix9_ツ]

That never stoped WT for the premiums copy paste

[O_Warrior0]

@Smin1080p_WT

Will we able to see any 4th gen tank for all the tech trees? Currently only Japan has 4th gen MBTs while other nations are still using the 3rd.

[WanouMars]

Actually, they stopped 12 days ago !

[Phantom2hel]

the Mb there is as a premium but the slight more powerfu enginel 152 … the greek had the less powerful engine. and i believe was a little lighter…
mostly Copy paste… but… with skins… ahahah! but what else you can bring on a tree to start from below the 6.0 ?
aw i forgot the 1.0 italian tankete thing that every one loves … L3/33 CC that captured … in 1940s in the italian retreat! did that sweet the thing a little? ahaha!

[Circleati]

Is there any further news regarding the plans for the World War mode?

@magazine2

Q: It has been a while since there was any information surrounding World War Mode. What are the plans for this mode? Will it come back in some capacity?
A: We’re developing a new World War mode. I hope we can tell you more about it in early 2025.

I seem to hear mentioning something in last year’s community update, but 2025 is already drawing to a close. I look forward to hear interest news.

[WanouMars]

You got it the other way around!

“In which Tech Tree this one cannot go to? Mmmm”

[Circleati]

smin said geographic not historical, and by geographic they mean if you look at one on a globe the other is kinda close

[I_MiikaL_I]

So it’s good copy paste when france gets leopards and f16s, but bad copy paste even Israel gets a mirage 2k and rafale. Nice double standard Frenchy

[Blue_Canadian]

UNITED KOREAN TREE LETS GOOOOOOOOO

In all honesty, this has been the tree I have most looked forward too since I read the suggestion, and I am so happy to see it being implemented!

[Get_HeshED]

@AlvisWisla

So all paintings of characters are all copy-paste of one another?
If you’ve seen one image of D-Va you’ve seen them all?
That’s a disrespectful worldview of information researchers, and artists.

That’s a terrible analogy.

@AlvisWisla

Also you add M44 and M55 to service countries even if they can get more artillery because it gives players options.
It’s pro-player to give players options.

Options to whom exactly? To someone that can’t be bothered to actually play the game and reach 4.0 in another nation to get a vehicle he wants?

I can understand being forced to get a whole new top tier to play a desired vehicle being frustrating, but 4.0? Seriously? Below like R6 it is a non issue.

@AlvisWisla

The more options, the more unique you can make your lineup.

Your lineup? Maybe. Your gameplay experience? Absolutely not. It is surely an amazing experience to play 3 matches in 3 different nations around the same BR and facing pretty much the same vehicles every time regardless of nation lineups. Very interesting indeed. Even if you use squads to limit nations you can potentially face you will still have the exact same vehicles in the enemy team. It makes the game boring and choice of nation irrelevant.

@AlvisWisla

This linup has 3 copy-paste in it, yet is far more unique than the American lineup I showed earlier.

You aren’t going to spawn all of these vehicles in the match anyway, you don’t need this many different tanks/planes in a lineup.

If you want to use a sherman or an M10, go to US and use those vehicles there. You can research and spade them all in a few hours at best even without premium.

France has it’s own vehicles, like the AMX-13-M24 and ARL, use those instead.

Especially now with daily backups being added, copypaste is becoming even less relevant

[Bloodmaster_XT]

Thanks for keeping us updated!
As a request, please consider bringing back the Tiger II (10.5 cm Kw.K), Panther II and Coelian in some way. If they were to receive remodels at the same time it would be a great way to commemorate the occasion.

[Rory_merchury]

Good news indeed for naval department. The new feature of For naval is a much needed addition but then again people will prioritize Firefighting and unwatering over all else so other builds are pretty much useless, an better fix would be to change the damage system and the modules with in the ships, half the shots you fire do not even do stuff even if you hit.
Aside from this I do not believe adding Greece and Cyprus to Israel is a very good idea. It will be a Heavy slap in the face for people from said country’s. Not only that but It is an better idea to make an combined Mediterranean tree or add Greece and Cyprus as an sub tree to Italy which is an better idea. If you want to strengthen Israel why not add Egypt and turkey to the tree. and if Egypt and Turkey are not enough you can always add country’s that surround Israel to the Stew and even maby add the Israeli vehicles that are stuck in other tree’s like USA tree to the Israel tree.

Free Daily Backups

In Ground, Naval and Air Arcade Battles, War Thunder is a game that requires a lineup for you to reach your full potential in the battle. However, some players may not have a full line-up — one way to help with this is by using backups, however they themselves can only be received as a random reward or have to be purchased. Because of this we want to make them more widespread and easier to use in order to introduce and teach more players about this useful (for both the player and their team) mechanic.

So, soon we’ll be adding a few backups that players can use for free in battle. This will just be one shared number of backups that can be used across all nations, all ranks and all modes. These free backups are not added to your inventory, instead they will simply be something you can use while in a battle. Once you’ve used them up, you’ll need to wait until the next day, where they will then reset and be replenished.

Great to see a reply to a commonly-discussed subject! Here below are some of the subjects that talked about it:

People will still 1 death leave. The issue was never repair costs

Repair costs were just an excuse for people who yolo and die or can only use meta vehicles, nothing else. We will continue to see 1 death leavers. I think the community as a whole should re-evaluate how they play the game/use their vehicles. The recent economy change however contradicts that notion. Oh well.

Solution to One-Death-Leavers / One-Death-Quitters Problem

During the last 2-4 years one death leaving (ODL) or one death quitting has become a major problem in this game. Games exist to be an interactive plattform where the actions of the players that take part in it have an effect on the outcome of it. But especially in higher BRs ODL has become the key factor if a match is won or lost. This completely takes away the reason of what a game is and how it works. There are more reasons for why ODL is a problem for war thunder, which is a multi-spawn gam…

One Spawn Quitters

Hi Guys, What are your thoughts about players leaving the game after using 1 tank/Heli? Gaijin need to do something about this, It really affect the game. What are your suggestions for penalties or consciences? Thank you.

1 Death Leavers - Post economy Experience

Step 1: Click to battle (Germany 10.3) Step 2: Join a match Step 3: Spawn in Leo-2A4 Step 4: wait 30 seconds in bush killing 2 tanks / GO and play the OBJ Step 5: Open score board and see 10/15 friendly players have disconnected Step 6: cower in fear as 11+ players + CAS are now bombing and annihilating you in spawn 3 min into the match Step 7: “No players active on team” Step 9: Repeat This has been my experience with 9.7-11.7 GROUND RB as of late as people still just leave after one de…

@magazine2

We also saw your comments about suggestions for the Israeli tree. We currently plan to expand the Israeli tree to include Greece and Cyprus to increase its gameplay diversity.

Definitely an interesting choice, these nations certainly have connections (although they are rare), and could support each other very neatly. Although Chili would have made more sense I think.

[WanouMars]

lol why are you here to pick on me?

I think any copy/paste is bad! The reason is Trees should have different flavors / gameplay options.
Now most tech trees look and feel the same.

I don’t care whether it’s a French, German, Russian, whatever, vehicle that gets copy/paste - it should not be. That’s it. (but it’s more true for the Rafale hehe)

We had considered adding Singaporean vehicles to the Chinese tree to provide
