Watch them swap out all convoy spaags with Sidam 25s

I mean they wouldn’t be so bad if the AI wasn’t pumped full of steroids and be able to hit a pimple inside my pilot’s crack whilst flying 3km away over mach 1.

They need to just turn the AI down a bit. And fix their rendering so they aren’t floating/in the ground/actually in the right place and not rendering 2km away from their actual position.

I’m seeing mentions of Poland here.

I’ve been saying it for years that Poland and Yugoslavia should be added. They can actually offer far more uniqueness and variety than China and Israel and their military historical significance is appropriate to see them represented in a video game, unlike Malaysia and Thailand. Believe me, if properly implemented, they would be in the same caliber as France and Italy in terms of indigenous vehicle potential if not slightly better. I’m still waiting for those tech trees.

Unfortunately, they’re wasting their time and development effort by focusing on ruining the national identities of existing trees. Of everything I’ve seen Gaijin do in my 12 years playing this game, never would I have ever expected something as ridiculous as giving the Japanese tree MiGs and Sukhois just to name one example. Japan should have stayed Japanese, period, and they missed their chance to add Hungary and Romania as minor tech trees like Israel.

A big part of the game’s immersion was the unique and strict national representation of tech trees, even if it meant a longer grind (all things considered it made it worth it in the end). Now it’s gone, with the means being copy pasted vehicles as the cherry on top.

Sorry, it’s still bothering me.

its the first update of the year. So probably 50% is premium so it can be on sale in the winter.
After that fact, probably everything is going to be top tier and/or top tier C&P slob for rank IX.

Gaijin, when will the Type 24 ICV get selective realism?
if BMPT crew can survive ammo explosive with ‘“external” internal ammo that is right next the the crew’. can we get ‘“external” internal ammo that separate from the crew’ buff please?

No, because only Russia gets favoritsm treatment.

Im confused about why the recent update has reduced the ammo box timer from 60 seconds to 15 seconds, who asked for this?

I’m wondering if we get a TT revamp this year.
Since grinding to Rank IX is going to be a monumental task.

just to clarify

I think you’re confusing “Chinese nation” with “Gaijin’s poor implementation of the Chinese nation.”

The real deal with China gradually begins at rank VI. Yugoslavia and Poland have indigenous and/or unique modifications of existing vehicles to offer in the first 6 ranks, and then even more afterwards.

You haven’t, that’s not really a good reference point.

China still has some unique indiginous WWII aircraft designs left, just not that much.

So you didn’t understand the answer. Let me clarify: the business for Gaijin is in the high/top ranges, and currently no one can offer as much quantity and variety there as China does. At least Yugoslavia doesn’t compare to what China can offer.

Please pick a lane

True, thats why Korea is being considered as well.
Not much lower ranks but much higher ranks.
Just like Israel.

Good to know

A lot more than half of the game is still situated in the WW2 to Cold War eras where the overwhelming majority of the grind takes place.

And when speaking of tech tree potential, we look at the whole picture, not the last rank or two. Tech trees aren’t comprised of only top tier jets, even if those iconic ones give Gaijin the most business.

So to repeat myself again, even if Gaijin implemented China better, there’s no way it would ever surpass Poland and Yugoslavia as a tech tree. It only offers a unique experience in a small bracket way high up its tech tree where most people struggle to reach.

In all honesty, i dont think Gaijin is going to implement new nations with lower tiers.
As seen with Israel, Hungary, Malaysia, Thailand, Benelux, Switserland, etc…

After 3 years we are still waiting for the lower tier Hungarian airforce.

Is it maybe because all the nations that house these sub trees already have good low tiers? So they aren’t as important?
