I want to wager that most of the people who are new actually are going to play the major nations instead of minor nations such as US/RU/GR and probably China. A lot of the players playing France are choosing France as their 3rd, 4th, 5th nations which helps explain why a lot of French vehicles have high winrates, not necessarily because the vehicles are cracked at their BRs but instead the players who play France are very experienced. So when you have someone who has already played Germany for example and completed the tech tree, why would France entice them with the Leopard 2A4NL/Leclerc versus say M1 KVT/M1A2 SEPv2? One tech tree offers a vehicle they’re already used to when they are looking for a new experience, making other tech trees such as the US a far more enticing option offering an exotic experience.
It cannot be understated that exotic vehicles offer far more value for your buck and offers a better gameplay experience. I wouldn’t be making such a complaint if the 2A4NL for example offered something unique to differ it from the 2A4s we have in-game.
Yeah C&P premiums are good.
The exotic and unique vehicles should be placed in the TT to inventice people to play them.
That’s the entire reason why i dont play Israël.
All those freaking T-55’s and M-60’s all over again.
Japan will be the same case with thailand.
They will just get all the C&P in the TT, requiring you to play the same vehicle over and over again - that is not fun.
Good to hear.
It doesn’t sound logical to me, if you have a model that can be put in multiple nations, then we dont add them to these nations in the first place? no matter if they need it or not.
Perhaps when they are fixed, but then they are normally present on the changelog. In general if a report remains open with no new comment or status, thats generally because there is not one to provide.
This is literally 90% of the reports that players send. The bug with the camouflage on the Canadian Leo 2 has not been fixed to this day, although my report has been hanging as confirmed for a long time…
Can ground team developers place more emphasis on fixing bug reports for vehicles that are outrageously still outstanding? The air teams have been very generous in implementing reports both bugs and suggestions across the board for all tech trees. But I would like to see that same love from the ground teams.
We all love to see more content but correcting historical inaccuracies for the current vehicles in-game can always stand to see more priority.
An tried and tested premium will probably have more success than an unknown one. Those people who grind France as their third/fourth/fifth tree have already played the 2A4 in other trees, yes. However that also means that know just how incredibly good the 2A4 is at 10.7 and just how good of a grinder it is.
For most people premium vehicles are only a means to an end, Having a known extremely good grinder is much more valuable to most people than an unknown possibly inconsistent grinder.
As someone who has gone through all of the USA and German ground/air trees and has been finishing up with most of Russian air/ground, France looks like a good follow-up nation to grind out.
They do have nice premium vehicles, but they’re not exactly what I’d like to purchase at the moment. The VBCI, AMX-30 Super, and CV9035NL would make a decent lineup, but they’re not vehicles I’m super interested in.
The Leopard 2A4, on the other hand, is something I already know how to play from Germany, and I can easily see other vehicles being added to compliment it in a lineup. I saw a premium AMX-10 being mentioned – if it gets a stabilizer it would make for a great Vextra equivalent that would compliment the 2A4 very nicely.
I 100% agree, after using the G.91 R/4 to grind Germany, I ended up regretting not getting it for Italy instead of the Ariete I did get, as I got used to the first one I knew how to play it so I would be had better experience then the Ariete with my Italian grind.
Meh, i have a friend that recently asked me if the new premium would have something unique but was no longer interested when i said it was just a leo2a4 with nothing special to it.
Will it sell well and there will be a spam of more leo 2a4 ? Yeah.
But will people really care in the long run ? Not really.
And honestly if gaijin is unable to market tank that are not another leo 2a4 that is on them.
