The talk is back, does that mean there is a chance for DEV season to start some time this week?
how long it takes it will crunch and unpolished. Last year has proved it. Actually, it’s been even more broken as updates goes one regardless how long dev server is open and how much time devs could get.
As a naval player I saw game become more broken for years and make suggestion, not only by me but with players the answer is always no. Now I just forget hope this game could ever ‘polish’ or ‘finish’. Just give new vehicle which people could forget about those broken things for a while. That is all that this game’s devs can do.
Spain has significantly less than that of some nations not represented in game, like South Korea and Yugoslavia, so it doesn’t make sense for it to be independent. Being a sub nation of Italy is an option, however I very much doubt it since Italy doesn’t have a connection to Spain like the UK does to India.

Honestly an update where they don’t add any new vehicles and just fix a whole bunch of bugs would be really appreciated.
this has to be ragebait

Yeah, this is a good point too on the other hand.
These last years, I barely see any bug reports fixed between the dev server, the update release and even several months later.
You mentioned Naval- take Amagi’s turret damage models counting the whole elevator rooms as a turret as an example.
So… I can only guess that the prominence of these issues would only be EVEN worse with rushed updates.

I’m actually skeptical about that. Code is too spaghetti that ‘operation health’ update would end War Thunder 2
There are a significant number fixed between each. Typically in the hundreds.

I mean, Italy already has Hungary- I don’t know if they have more or less relation than Spain, but they already got a large su tree, and Grom once told me (before Hungary was revealed) that Spain was “a stupid idea”, so I doubt it will ever come for Italy xD
I don’t think Spain can be an independent tree, never suggested it to be a possibility- if anything, maybe along with Portugal, on a “Iberia” tech tree…?
I don’t know.
I mean, of course, that’s why I said I preferred this update release format over forced rushing via strict deadlines- but there are still so many quite noticeable bugs and inaccuracies out there that it is hard not to notice them and wonder: “how hasn’t this been fixed yet…?”
Like- if this update release system gives us even 40 bug fixes/polishments before an update is released (which it does), I think it’s worth not having an official schedule beforehand.
Quality > speed, for me!
I prefer to get (X) vehicle with 12 bugs later, rather than getting it with 33 bugs a few days earlier.
Actually UK does have connection to India. Early Indian armed forces composed of vehicle from British and license production of Vickers MBT lay the foundation of future Indian Heavy vehicle manufacturing capacity(on the negative side, it makes Arjun uses 120mm ‘rifled’ gun that even doesn’t match to British one XD)
Indian navy also got heavy influence by cold war British navy and still uses some ship based on British design, but installing soviet weapons.
But for Spain… I’m against Spain to Italy not because I think Spain can be independent tree but it makes Italy too strong, and make Germany frustrated again after Sweden has three Strv 122. They have Leopard 2E and Tortuga, which is test vehicle based on Leopard 2E. They have F/A-18C, which is much better than Tornado what German has.
Italy already has leopard 2a7hu, and will be operator of KF51-U in late 20s. If Germany guaranteed another heavy hull armored Leopard 2 and swiss F/A-18 then yes why Spain bothers, but for now, after Sweden has more heavy hull armored Leopard 2 than Germany, making Italy having more heavy hull armored Leopard 2 with Hungary and Spain doesn’t seem good idea.

I know. I said that it did.

oh I misread it. Sorry.
Germany is just cursed lmao.
Took them 4 years to get a single equivalent of a tank Sweden had 3 variants of.
I have no idea how Germany still doesn’t have at least another uparmored hull Leopard.
Then again, most nations are still missing counterparts to even that, so… meh. Not like 2024 has done much to change that either, Leopard 2A7HU being literally the only MBT added over the course of the entire year.
That being said, I almost prefer 3rd Gen thermals over hull armor, so I would be happy if Germany got Leopard 2A6M3 hahah. (And base 2A7, if it has them- I am still not sure whether it’s suppossed to have them or not.)
I literally don’t play Sweden just because of the 1st Gen gunner thermals.

Best would be Leopard 2A6EX(2/2 thermal) and Leopard 2A7+(3/3 thermal). Especially when later one is just Leopard 2A7HU, it is easy to just copy paste and give to Germany.

Yep! Those are possibilities indeed.
I was looking for actual service vehicles, but those would definitely be the very best possible ones from a technical point of view.

What could even be added to top tier german aur anymore? I don’t feel like there is much.
A more advanced Eurofighter variant for the future pinnacle and a Swiss F-18.
Oh, and F-35A, whenever 5th Gen comes.
Yes, up there, but not the worst.
Ariete still exists
Israel with no light tanks after 6.7 and the Namers are equally handicapped in a lot of ways.
Still better than having to rely on the Otomatic, or worse, the Imp Chaparral.
AH Mk.1 is still better than the helis from multiple other nations.
