Yes, because these vehicles/modifications were made (put in service) in Russia.
I just don’t see why it should be changed especially in the case of USSR. Similar case would be with potential Yugoslavia tech tree, the original Yugoslav flag would make more sense than Serbian.
I’d like to see every vehicle with its correct flag, even if it means “Germany” in a 8.0 match happens to be the DDR, Nazi Germany, and Argentina. Just show all 3 flags.
1: There is no “Korean” client, there was a Chinese Client(Defunct), DMM(Japanese), and International Clients.
2: The Battle Flag Of Japan started in the Edo Period, 1870.
3: Korea was annexed back in 1910. Till 1945. Give you a hint a lot of Older Korean folks->stare at that flag remembering the dark past, despite what history says. Which is ignored over emotions. When the flag appears.
4: I see no reason why it should magically be “updated” Rather the flags should be done with both eras in mind such as the WW2 IJ Battle Flag/the Current Modern version of the Japanese Hinomaru Flag despite the flag being over 156 years of age.
I really shouldn’t have to give a history lecture cause all it takes is 1 Google search to figure this stuff out.
Japan maybe since current flag was only a military one, but no for USSR and Germany. The tech tree flag should be the one that most vehicles in the tech tree use, which are the current flags used. Plus USSR tree will likely receive some vehicles from post soviet countries and i really don’t see ukrainian vehicles going well under a tech tree with Ru flag…
That’s a fair point I didn’t think of. I guess i just figured other post nations would eventually get their own TT. I could see a large displeasment though. If/when they do add a machines such as that if they don’t rework the TT and put RU fed in it’s own sub tree seperating it from other post nation sub trees.
Don’t think that’s any different, but ok. Either way, it’s being used within the context to represent 2 different eras. If Gaijin wanted to be more accurate the Tech Tree flag should be half and half, the old Hinomaru and half of the present-day Hinomaru flags. While keeping the battle flag on all Interwar->WW2 air, ground and naval on the stat card.
Whatever how different the flag is, although yeah, unlike for USSR, for Germany it would be more reasonable to have modern flag instead of censored WW2 war flag.
By the way, did the moderators delete the whole thread? Amazing the way the moderators work you are simply hiding the problem under the carpet. We as a community have done our job and informed you that there are laws in Europe for some countries to censor certain flags such as Nazi and USSR flags, because of the obvious genocidal reign, now it’s up to you to get moving and act.
