Any idea when the dev season should start, 3 weeks?
Typically 2 to 3 weeks before the patch and the March patch can vary a bit. Could start sometime between the mid of Feb and the Beginning of March I reckon

There was always a certain balance. I wouldn’t say there was a “leading nation” throughout the 20th century. Currently Brazil is the most powerful nation in South America, but it was not always like this.
In terms of unique vehicles (especially airplanes) Argentina has more than Brazil. However, Brazil also has unique vehicles and other (highly modified) vehicle modifications that are very interesting.
Finally, regardless of what I just said, Brazil has a few million more people hanging around, so I think that’s the only reason Gaijin would choose Brazil as the head nation.
Another way to implement these nations would be a combined binational tree (it’s the best way, believe me). In addition to Brazil and Argentina, Chile could have a line as a sub tree, a third leg in this team. Other South American nations could provide very few exclusive vehicles (a Peruvian Tifón2A as an event or premium vehicle and beyond this, there are not many).
Personally, I don’t care if it’s Argentina/Brazil or Brazil/Argentina. At the end of the day, both will have a similar number of vehicles within the TT (it would be stupid to make 4 lines from Brazil and one from Argentina or the other way around).

I’ve never gotten how people can look at a leak list that around 80% correct or higher and attribute it to pure guess work. Especially when the leak is calling out rare and obscure vehicles that no one would of predicted normally.
I think some people just can comprehend how statistically unlikely that is.

In my opinion, sub trees have never been a good idea, and instead sub nations should have been and should be spread throughout the lines of a tree like how the ZA JAS39C and M53/59 are.

mhm after the second leak the Chinese dude did people were still in denial about him iirc.
But yea it’s really odd since here it’s meant to be for stuff like this.
I have to agree. Most minor nations are just incapable of creating a fully flushed out tech tree by themselves, and often need a lot of copy and paste to make it possible.
Having sub-trees attached to existing nations, means that you can both fill capability gaps for the major nation, and also makes it easier to focus on adding more unique vehicles.
An example would be how a Polish sub tree would work alot better than trying to make it an independent nation. There are some cool and unique vehicles in the polish tree, but the vast majority of them would be very similar if not identical to vehicles found in game already.

Yea I just can’t see how Poland would work as a indi tree but Czechoslovakia I totally can.
Poland can give the Czechs what they are lacking while the Czechs being in Poland just takes away from what the Czech have

I think its quite the opposite. I can’t see a Czech tree working but Poland absolutely can. Its really the Czechs filling in the blanks that Poland can’t.
At any ranks that Poland has unique vehicles the Czechoslovaks too, with the point by Deathmisser being that Czechoslovakia arguably has more at the ranks that Poland is weaker at when it comes to ground.
Of note though is that Poland arguably has a better jet era in air going for it, with them having some distinct looking modifications of MiG aircraft that the Czechoslovaks lack.
Personally I wouldn’t say any is really superior over the other, though I would argue that Poland is the better host nation due to them having a navy, which is something Czechoslovakia would lack beyond some river monitors.
I wouldn’t like to see either party being subservient though and would much rather see it function as a proper shared tree. We don’t have such a thing in game yet though (arguably with China but it’s a relative stretch) so we’ll have to see.

They’ll be a little stronger at rank I and II, but after that Poland is just way better as an option, for all three branches.
Would Turkey be an Israel type tree though? It existed throughout ww2 and personally I’d enjoy having a Turkish Fw 190 and PZL 24.
Turkey with Egypt sub-tree when?
I was using what I have seen here for tech-tree proposals.
and the Turkey one is Isreail style.
Gaijin needs to make Multipathing actually historical and not some “Get out of jail free card”.
While true, DCS is not a good indicator of performance and has been shown to be worse that WTs radar modelling.

whatever you say bud
Heatblur is the ones who developed the Tomcat for DCS not DCS itself so your logic is out the window
And Heatblur is still stuck within the confines of EDs simulation. ED in particular are in charge of all ordnance modeling. They do not simulate many of the aspects of radar which are critical to weapon employment.

I also believe they don’t do the CWS seeker errors like Sparrows going for a non locked target because they have a bigger DP shift in the wider radar cone around it.
Hey guys, for those interested in Chinese IFV’s, one of my suggestions was just posted, so feel free to take a look!
