Last year’s teaser dropped on the 5th, considering we’re are already almost half way through November, the devblogs or even WIPblogs are not that far.
The best part of this time of the year is the little wait between new updates.

The word unique was literally never used. Nice to see people are still just making up arguments to fight against here.
They were called domestic. Which they are. They are French flagged, French vehicles, even if they are also license produced or joint projects.

If receiving sub-nations suddenly means you can expect domestic content to be outnumbered by foreign content 2:1 for the foreseeable future, while simultaneously going multiple updates in a row without receiving a single domestic tank or plane, how on earth are people surprised that there is a negative pushpack against sub tree content?

@Smin1080p_WT why is the bucaneer S2B placed at such a high br when carrying the AJ.168 while aircraft with the same or better capability sit at a lower br? the russian SU-17M4 and american A7D for example being 11.0 with KH29T mavericks and GBU-8 whereas if you want to the use the bucaneer at 11.0 you can only use dumb bombs and paveways? it seems liike a bit of an over br to say the least
AJ.168 has MITL.
I thought this was domestic as in uniquely developed / modified by the nation. As opposed to something like a directly imported vehicle, that wouldn’t be domestic anymore.
Sorry for the confusion there. If it’s about French vehicles I’d say this:
On a more serious note, it’s not surprising that the newly added nations that have to built up their representation from 0 will get more comparatively in the beginning, since comparatively more of their vehicles are missing. Once they received more of their content this will equal out again.
The real issue here is just that despite being a three (technically four, but Luxembourg has no vehicles yet and like three to add total) nation techtree they barely add enough vehicles for one each update a lot of times, and in this one specifically most were naval which I think you don’t play. Though including naval that also makes it 3/4 French vehicles this time around, which I believe you would like if you did.

oh yeah i forgot about that, still doesnt justify the 11.7 br in my opinion considering its a subsonic airframe with no gun and only 3 weapons facing the likes of the pantsir if it gets a slight uptier

Shouldn’t we have a new thread?
most likely yeah
They just said they were working on it, not that it was ready.

I don’t know who is surprised, Gaijins implementation is horrible.
All this could be solved by reworking subtrees, adding them with a properly sized release tree rather than a handful of vehicles the same way a new nation would (which is also much easier to generate hype and sell premiums for), and then making sure to balance out additions in coming updates so that there is enough content for each nation added at a rate that’s proportional to how many vehicles they are still missing in game.
But nope, we get updates where a four* nation techtree gets literally nothing besides a single AI controlled aircraft carrier model, and subtrees added in a way that they need multiple years of constant preference just to vaguely start resembling a nation.

Yeah, I know, Luxembourg doesn’t count. But the point sounds better

Why this still not closed ?
Day 1359 of waiting for Polish tech tree

They were waiting for me my bad
Ok
Yes
Trust me, I’m in full support of subtree folders, largely because if the British tree was emptied of foreign content it would instantly become clear quite how severely domestic content has been neglected where gaps have been filled by foreign content.
No tech tree light tanks between 3.0 and 7.7, and no SPAAs between 4.0 and 8.3 would definitely be a sight to see.

I very much hate the Fulmar
How the hell did the devs think its 1.7 material It’d even be a bad 1.0
the sunderland probably handles about as well, and thats a 4 engine’d long range patrol flying boat
not a single engine “FIghter”
That too. The way it’s done now a lot of times there just isn’t even enough space to add both, which is really just bad game design.
From a Gaijin perspective any nation is meant to provide more content for the future, but any vehicle that doesn’t have space with this same logic is wasted potential in future updates. Which in turn means turning what could’ve been multiple vehicles worth of profit and multiple updates worth of content away, and just doesn’t make any sense.

Just proceed one more meter and make Netherlands (BeNeLux) a main tree after this
