They just don’t look like vapor/condensation, I understand that wt might not have the greatest engine, but they can improve a lot.
A good handyman takes care of his tools. The game engine is such a tool but the care it is given is dubious at best.
id call dubious an overstatement
Looks more like vape smoke being blown out someones car while driving.
Actually no, it looks like the parachute smoke from GTA V.

Lmao
There are plenty of choices from Hungary and Romania which wouldn’t be copypaste:
Hungary:
- WM-21;
- CR.32 and 42bis retrofitted with powerful Gebauer machineguns;
- HÉJA 2;
- Ca.135bis (not unique for Hungary, but Italian plane);
- Ju-86K-2 (variant with different engines, unique for Hungary);
- Me.210Ca-1/40 mm Bofors (wasn’t used by Germany + 40 mm variant completely unique for Hungary);
- WM-23;
Romania: - P.11f and P.24E (domestic modifications of Polish license-built PZL);
- IAR-80/81 (while we already have 81C, there are other modifications which differ quite enough);
- SET family biplanes;
- IAR-37;
- JRS-79 family (Romanian modernization of SM.79B);
- IAR-93A/MB;
- IAR-99;
- LanceR A/C.
In the perfect world would be something like this (white, needs rework since recently added stuff and rank IX announcement)
so I took the plunge and bought the f1, i’m currently grinding the sl for expert crew and just had this hilarious game where literally not one guy on the other team got a kill, like… that’s gotta be a record or something
The reason I’m posting this here is because I believe Gaijin should work on a new and revamped tutorial system to help clueless players, being bad at the game is normal, all of us were at some point, but the game being obscure and difficult to learn because there simply isn’t any tutorials that explains how anything works? That’s bad design. It’s also frustrating and not fun for blueberries for players like me to farm them just because I started playing ages ago and have this knowledge built up over the years (granted i’m still quite new to the shiny toys added while i wasnt playing but still).
So i would love to see Gaijin release a small update tailored to new players, we should all push for this, the more players join the game the better, and the better those players are, the better the matches will get, more fun dogfights, challenging players to fight, no longer having to play 10 matches in a row to have one good fight. i’m convinced this would be a net positive for ARB and the game as a whole!
People will use C&P as an escape goat as to them C&P is worthless since they want stuff being worked on that’s close to them.
I think the biggest issue with copy paste is typically when it’s added, it’s usually added in place of something unique. The 2026 decal literally has 2 vehicles on it, which should have come with vehicles like the M44 (Hummel), and M109 (Palmaria). I don’t think people don’t want copy paste, they just don’t want ONLY copy paste.
Well then again people can’t really determine what C&P is most people would just look at the name and go “Yeah C&P slop” see the Swedish Mossie for that.
A lack of M109G wouldn’t accelerate the addition of Palmaria, we would just have a gap instead.
And Palmaria should be a bit higher in br imo, like ≈7.0.
We are also still lacking Italian M109L modification btw.
2S1 though is kinda strange considering there could be Romanian Model 89 instead, which would be a bit different based on MLI-84 chassis.
rafale prototype maybe? or an M2K with micas…? genuinely scratching my head at what they might have to add, maybe a netherlands jet? Belgium…?
we already have that and its 14.0, probably won’t get it as a premium (i bloody hope)
I’m not understanding what you’re trying to say here. I don’t think the M109 should have been replaced by the Palmaria, that’s actually the opposite of what I was saying. Alongside M109, they should have added the Palmaria as well, and it seems like based on what you said, they could have at least added a domestically upgraded M109. Instead they chose not to, should have been a good indication of what they would do with the Thai sub tree.
that’s gonna be… insanely difficult because such affect require different atmospheric conditions for varying levels of vapor.

Well, I was confused by “in place”. Probably it isn’t always possible to add both at the same time. M109 model can be ready for implementation and Palmaria not. There can be questions to priorities of course, but I guess for Gaijin the main priority would be the one which they can add to multiple trees at once or just one with more potential outcome (players/money).
Although, yeah, in case of M109L it’s not clear why we still don’t have it, since it shouldn’t require a lot of work to model from the base M109.
🆗 🙏
Gajin not mentioned romanian aircraft rank I ~ V on italian researchable tree ?
