Where is the ROC flag? One of the main tech trees of the Chinese tech tree didn’t get a flag. What happened to it?

Here’s a quick question, why do you guys care so much about the ROC flag? How many of you actually play the game using Chinese vehicles? How many of you are actually affected by this?

Good question,the official is not respawn this issule.I’m still waiting for an official answer.
Just for client user system ,this is not a problem ,I think their know it .
Gaijin and the mainland Chinese community don’t want you to have an alternative flag option that only YOU can see if YOU change it for yourself.
Its quite sad that they have yet to make an official statement regarding this. Like why remove the flag? Let me change the country flag to whatever I want. Its not like other players can see what options I pick unless I stream or upload videos even then its my personal choice and not a reflection of Gaijins views or political opinions.
Leave it to Gaijin and extension the mainland Chinese players to turn something small into a bigger issue.
Like no one is forcing mainland Chinese players to use that flag. Its an OPTION for those that WANT TO USE IT.

The official reason is that ROC vehicles in War Thunder are currently represented by the ROC army flag instead of the ROC national flag, and Gaijin has made it policy to not allow army/navy flags in the flag customisation.
The real reason is likely something else which has been debated to death in this thread already.
Ok then they shall add the ROC national flag.

- Gaijin have stated that they are “Relastic” and “historically accurate”.
- I belive we shall respect other nations’ flags instead of disrespecting them.

I’d like the ROC flag to represent my most played top tier aircraft, the Mirage 2000-5Ei
But each to their own, a lot of people are whining for the sake of criticising gaijin
Every in-game operator deserves to be represented by their own flag, and I think the same standards and rules should apply to all operators so that none are discriminated against. In the 1314 posts in this thread I have yet to hear a convincing non-political argument for why ROC flag shouldn’t be in the game.

Is just like toilet in shopping mall, we don’t care doesn’t mean you can delete it
I can’t speak for everyone else here obviously, but I think that there should be a level of consistency in the game that is broken by not having the flag.
The way it is now, they arbitrarily decided to only have the ROCA flag for ROC vehicles, making them not have any national representation in the selection. Using the same concept some other nations like the Republic of South Vietnam or the Weimar Republic are also missing despite being in game. This sets a bad precedent for the future as well, since now if a nation happens to be added with a military flag, it won’t be represented.
This can easily be fixed by just always consistently using national flags to represent each nation.
This shouldn’t have political implications either, considering pre-1948 PRC vehicles also get a national flag for a nation that has yet to be founded, meaning it doesn’t matter if you believe ROC is a nation or not for them as a faction to use the flag that ROC used as an undisputed nation during WWII for example.

Quick reminder that it is not allowed to discuss about moderated messages. It goes off-topic and doesn’t add anything to the discussion.

What would add to the discussion is some feedback from the devs on the matter. They had a good opportunity with the recent Community update post, but it was not mentioned?

Yeah, I get that part but all the attention this one’s getting is kinda weird. Only a handful of players in this thread actually play the Chinese TT extensively and the rest are just ranting about something that they probably’ll never use even if it was added.
The stuff I see here is exactly the kind of fanaticism I saw in the Chinese community regarding the VT4 thing back in September. Ironically some people I see here were also whining about how the ROCA is getting their own Abrams and Apache.
Yeah, players who do own ROCA vehicles and people from the region should get a say in this, but I’d also say this thread is mostly filled with western busybodies. How about we just mind our own business and let the controversy die down so Gaijin can finally fix it without getting into deeper crap.
If we stop discussing the issue, nothing will be fixed. It’s better to keep the discussion going. It’s the best way to possibly get a Gaijin answer. If this flag matters to you, then — “no matter where you come from” — you can freely share your view on this thread.
You tell me

Ah, I see you’re a man of taste, I get why you want the flag, and I have to say I do too for the same reason, albeit I’m a bit less dedicated. Then again, I’m just quite surprised by how many users are ranting on this thread, and I find it hard to believe that they all play the Chinese TT seriously.

As I said, this is a customization option. Most people talk about what we want, while another group says you have no right to think about it.
