Duplicate Vehicles: Why We Add Them

For a moment I thought this would finally be the dev team addressing duplicate vehicles from boxes on console

so tldr, correct me if im wrong but copy paste vehicles are just a quick and dirty fix

Outdated example then. German premium su17m4 wtd then. It should be same as su17m4 in tt.

The controversy with making the F-14D better than the B could have VERY easily been averted by simply… adding a tech tree one too? Like you previously did with the viggen?

In my opinion premiums shouldve always been variants of tech tree vehicles or if modifications, weaker ones.
I adore the early premiums we had like the commander versions of the pz4 and the jagdpanther. Similarly the pzbtl leopard 2 or the new puma premiums are great examples too of premiums. Vehicles we can already acces but modified or different visually.
A premium should never however be more powerful than its peers, it should be a sidegrade at best because otherwise it truly becomes pay to win

Yeah I’m pretty sure this post just proves f14D should be in the tech tree as well

You mean Prince Magach XII?

@Stona_WT
I dont mind the copy pastas, just if they would be consistent about it.
So many damn east german vehicles missing or the vt 4 in the japense tree

Besides that i am totaly for a country to get their export vehicle even if it isnt actualy in service in the developer country. This rule only being applied sporadicaly is unfair as well.

A nation should receive all their used vehicles or at least 1 variant of types they developed.

For an example, a Viggen that WAS upgraded to the AJS 37 standard in 1991/1992 would be 37009 that was upgraded to the AJS 37 in 1992-03-26. It is also somewhat different from most Viggens we also already have ingame as it features highvis markings on the two-tone gray camouflage. Not something you usually see!

It’s actually pretty heavily modified, have you seen its composite armor and whatnot? But yes, technically.

I would like to give an example. In the community suggestion post, most people voted for T58 to be a technology tree vehicle, but gaijin cleverly set it as a premium package, which is basically opposite to what the article explained, that is, you not only did not listen to player opinions but also added more unique premium vehicles. There are more than one classic examples of this

F-14D(R) courtesey of Nostalgic

Premium one should have just been F-14B(U), an F-14B with an upgraded HUD and maybe a few other bits

It is. It’s the F-14B. They are virtually the same plane

This just makes me more confused about Unique vehicles like the Fw 189 C. It’s unique but why was it added as a premium apart from being part of revenue share program. That just makes me think about if bomber cockpits were paid for because some of them are provided by revenue share program.

So gamemodes such as ground sim get to suffer because the devs didnt want to add vehicles like the Hummel instead? This is not a good excuse.

na, i just want the full revolution kit to be added to germany

Stop parroting the sloptuber CC’s and start thinking with your human brain

More east german vehicle would probably just make the tt more bloated
