Duplicate Vehicles: Why We Add Them

While I don’t necessarily mind duplicate vehicles being added as premiums, I think there is too many premiums being added every update that are all very similar. The recent Puma U14 and the M60A1 predator are examples that I like, they look unique which is nice, but I feel like Chinese high tier is oversaturated with vehicles some of which should have been tech tree vehicles.

Literally, sure the trasparency words in any new devblog are cool i guess

But for real it is a way to try to look cool after this update mess XD

But it explain why there are M44 in different tech trees - to fill the (gameplay/BR) gaps (existing back then/still) before something else (if available) be ready to implement.

Don’t listen to the sloptuber bandwagon. Duplicate premiums are THE BEST premiums. Because if you don’t buy them you still have the same gameplay experience from the tree.

Quick Summary TLDR:

C&P of a TT vehicle as a premium is fine, but make it unique to that tree and ideally something specific to that nation.

dont just slap Leopard 2s, F-16s, F-18s, Mig-29s, Su-30s, etc etc etc into every single tree as a premium.

Cool. Now all that’s left is to get an answer about the vehicles for which VERY little data is being added, regarding the Ostfind II type, and the reasons why some vehicles are being removed (which reasons are decisive in this matter). I wouldn’t mind seeing the comments regarding homemade vehicles like the BTR-3D and Super Pershing.

Thank you, now let me go research and stock grind my 20th leopard 2 variant. It brings oh so much variety to the game, the tedium of grinding the same vehicle in 4 trees is surely just an unfortunate side effect and not the desired effect.

I’ve got a feeling that if you guys didn’t add the M44 to other tech trees then people would still find a way to complain about it

Why not make it a focus, in that case, to model domestic alternatives for multiple trees at the same time

At top tier you often introduce new Soviet and NATO MBTs at the same time, so why not do so for unique low tier SPGs

We really need new game mode to be honest. Having the same thing since 2012. is just… idk

I understand this, but there are some people that play more trees and therefore lots of duplicates in the game.
Where could we suggest a system that perhaps gives you RP boost when you are grinding a duplicate vehicle when you have it spaded on another tree?

It’s called having an export market, complain to the US government and have them stop exporting vehicles instead of blaming gaijin

Well. The first and obvious question

Was there a serious gap that the M44s actually filled in ANY of the 6 trees?

and why weren’t native options developed alongside the M44 with the intention of being added in the same update?

Instead the solution is to add the M44 to all TTs at the same time, and then leave the native equivalents for no one knows how long. For example, instead of an M44 for the British TT, it could have been the Sexton

Agree, plus it really is funny how at times on various matters:
devblog says A
Bvvd says B
bug report managers says C

It’s incredibly clear there is a lack of communication in general

Understandable.

However a suggestion in that case would be for the AJS 37 (Early) to be renamed accordingly, as there is barely a time difference inbetween the AJS 37 in the tech tree (37078) and the newly added premium (37098) as both modified into the AJS standard in 1994 (The entire AJS upgrade program took place inbetween 1991 - 1994) seven months apart.

For an AJS 37 to be considered ‘early’, then it would need to be one of the aircraft that underwent the AJS upgrade in either 1991 or 1992, not 1994.

One more simple way to fix this issue would be to change the name from AJS37 (Early) to “AJS 37 (F 7)”, like the JA 37Di (F 21).

Except that , as of the latest update, the SU-39 is a straight upgrade when it comes to ARMs now.
It gets the KH-25MPU and KH-31.

The SU-25T only gets the stinky KH-58

A “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” situation.

Complaints if you added, complaints about missing it if you don’t.
