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

Doesn’t look like WT has any of said class in-game yet.

But indeed. I was thinking both the Tank and the Boat have a real counterpart they could just C&P after making some visual changes.

huh I thought the Harekaze was an imperial japanese destroyer its not its actually a JMSDF ship learn something new everyday huh

And that’s the doomed ship Yukikaze; the very ship that sent more than thousands of IJN, ROCN/PLAN straight to Blahaj’s mouth(NOPE) Davy’s chest (yep)

Despite how famous(if you are an IJN sailor, rather infamous) she is during the war, I still felt that the yukikaze would be a lot more significant in the Chinese naval TT as danyang.

Oh, the day that Chiang Kai Shek ordered the danyang to be scraped, he suffered a serious car accident and didnt recover until he died.

were not talking about the IJN Yukikaze were talking about the JMSDF one that was built in 1956, also ngl I think that might piss off a lot of people if they were to give a japanese ship to china because they acquired it after the war

PLAN/ROCN/ICN is not really a priority for the time being… but parts of ROCN/PLAN did contained IJN captured/trophy ships until 1950s; that will depend on how many ships the (better than none) TT can eventually offer, some frigates and modified IJN destroyers are fine of course.

sure but with how gaijin is they dont like adding things to 2 tech trees so if china got the IJN Yukikaze it would kinda rob japan of a very famous ship they have, its like how technically britain could get some of the german destroyers from the highsea fleet because they were captured by the british but that would piss people off lol

In terms of numbers the majority of the Chinese navy 1945-1950 was made up of Japanese boats and ships. However many of the coastal boats are not a good fit for warthunder as they are quite crap in terms of armament and speed.

So I said it depends on the final composition of the tech tree as Chinese naval TT is pretty embarrassing (lacks ships beyond CA); as for Yukikaze, ROCN received the ship with modified US weaponry (total downgrade in this case), leave the OG ship in IJN while the modified one at lower tier of Chinese TT

Well, nobody really cares about the novossyrisk, ex-julio ceasar, despite it being the same class thats the best of Italy right now.

I was talking to a friend thats a fan of the italian navy and they were pretty upset about it just you know naval is a pretty small community and even more so for the minor trees

And we know that most of the players just didnt really care much about the novossyrisk, since Italian battleships are considered second worst in top tier, and players of Soviet/Russia navy would find a bit of an use but not significant enough to make them better.
As of China naval, there are a plethera of options when the missile age enters PC warthunder, however its top brass would be the Chongqing, ex-aurora. I am rather confident that gaijin will consider a Chinese naval TT profitable since most of them are ex-allies ships and Chinese players are willing to pay for premiums.

Guys, is this Mad Thunder inspired just by Mad Max or also with Borderlands and Twisted Metal

By Crossout

By failure.

By a disaster.

Ultimately thats why a chinese naval tree is inevitable.

Itll be sparse. Its only got ex-japanese first line destroyers, ex-american destroyer escorts, some ancient heavy cruisers from before they were even called heavy cruisers, a large armed barge or passenger steamer or two, a unique class of tiny light cruisers, and the ex-british slightly less tiny light cruiser Aurora.

Maybe the PRC developed some indigenous gun-only escort destroyers in the 70s?
Edit: yes, the type 35s

Brown water navy will be actually pretty good, but i dont know if theyre willing to continue throwing resources into that particular spiderweb filled hole in the ground.

But i really dont think every country needs a top tier anyway, so i welcome it.

Nope, somehow we still don’t have a single Kagerou-class in WT. :(

I mean we got the premiums in world of warships

A thought I just had is that maybe this April Fools event is testing especially large ground maps and environmental events.
