Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Yeah either the F-16XL or another F-14 IRIAF but this time with better IR missiles.

Clearly it will be the VL Humu

None of these being present while being copy paste 95% makes me think why we even had Hungary at first place.

“Italy” team manager: Italy needs a competitive ground top tier. Do you have any action plan

Dev1: Yeah why not make Ariete realistic such that it will have hull composites?

Dev2: Let’s print more Leopards. That worked for Sweden huh?

Dev1: But we cannot just insert some Leopards as Italy is just planning to procure newest ones.

Dev2: We can enlarge Hungary maybe

“Italy” ground manager: OK please proceed with Hungary. We can dump some Soviet too instead of modelling work. Wonder if we really introduced OF-40 ATAK 35 or Palmaria or OF-40 Mk.3

Devs 1 and 2: Understood.

And then an update later now the Italian air manager asks to dump Gripens too, because introducing stuff at first in Sweden works, and they pack the Gripen with some soviet copy paste too (most had ready marketplace skins). Wonder if they modeled G.80 or G.59 or F-104 ASA-M or any Aermacchi trainer.

And another update later, now the helicopters department wants to span some soviet vehicles too, because some players notice that the Italian helicopters tree has the least number of vehicles despite Italy being the largest helicopter manufacturer of the continent. Who would bother to remove the gun from A-129CBT to give the basic Mangusta while there are Mi-24s sitting around.

Air? Yes
Ground? Busted tree

To an extent. Gaijin just uses too little common sense, they need to learn the art of balance. Gaijin opted to treat War Thunder as more of a cash grab rather than a long term investment.

Ground? Nah there didn’t bother with them at all, the panzer IV and t34 were the only useful additions since they filled gaps the rest just padded out pre existing lineups rather than fixing holes.

They also ignored anything unique in favor of low effort slop

I didnt say they bothered with unique stuff, and overall the finnish ground subtree is insanely good

Sure good but slop at doing a good job at representation of the nation and filling gaps, so instant F tier

Im a bit busy so ill sum my thought. They couldve filled much needed gaps with unique equipment which would’ve better represented the fins while not taking away from others.

Sweden didn’t need a 2A6 it shouldve been a unique Patria no, that became an event vehicle for money. Sweden needs a good 9.7 given they lack a good 9.3 SPAA and the T72 finmod couldve done that.

Why add a T54 when the 7.7 lineup needs more attention thats where the 155GH52-SP-T55 comes in, how about a 4.x lineup since sweden basically only has light armor TD’s couldve added the Sturmi ect ect.

If your idea of good is what Finland is, i hope you never get to a position where we need to take advice from you with subtrees.

Gaijins arch nemesis. They only develop what will bring in quick cash, rather than what will bring in more players.
