Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Hey Smin, I’ll stop with my little tirade after this post, as I don’t think this discussion i’ve made has been particularly productive.

That said, could you possibly clarify whether the relatively large amount of naval content France has been receiving could be one of the reasons why its ground and air departments have been somewhat lacking in comparison?

A lot of people have been blaming BeNeLux for France’s recent domestic content drought (which probably does play at least some part in it), but I was wondering whether the naval side of things might also be a factor. France has received quite a substantial number of naval vessels compared to other nations over the atleat the last 1.5 years, and now that its naval tree has more or less caught up, I’m curious whether that could potentially free up some room for more domestic french ground and air additions in future updates, as i assume development budget gets allocated per nation, so having more naval vehicles will lower the amount in the other of vehicles in the other two modes.

I think he’s already said that it’s because French naval is the most recent, so it was getting more content to meet the minimum levels the other trees are at

Will try to fish that back up

yeah, which is stupid, because gaijin doesnt look at polls that are not created by them.

We need to have more official polls

Yeah, I know, I was the one who asked XD. But technically, he only explained why France has been receiving more naval vehicles. What I’m specifically wondering is how that larger number of naval additions might have affected the ground and air trees. I’d assume that development resources and content allocation are shared between modes for each nation so perhaps that when prioritising naval additions has meant fewer resources being available for ground and air vehicles, That’s really what I’m trying to get at.

Do they really even look at the ones they make?

I’m not saying everyone needs to make polls, but I just meant that the users figure of a topic doesn’t include everyone that contributes. There is more ways to share your opinion than just writing, you can also support things others write by liking them or vote in polls.

So those “200 users” could very well be much more, like how in the Subtree Rework topic (at least) nearly 10x as many people actually voiced their opinions compared to the 96 that did it in writing specifically.

yeah, as we’ve seen with the APHE reworks and better rewards when losing a game.

A very good point, this is the only space that guarantees relatively active contributors

Though I will say the forum limits have been a bit restrictive from time to time

My GPU died a while back and in the ~3-4 weeks it took to replace it I’m pretty sure I was locked out on here by the end

yet nothing is done by gaijin. Shows how little they actually care after all these years

Don’t worry we’ve been asking them to change convoy and nuclear escalation SPAA for months with no changes

Hey. We will ask if it can be checked out. Its possible it might be a hard limitation.

Naval has of course been a big priority for France, as there were a lot of requested ships quite quickly and of course, being the youngest naval tree, some catching up to do.

The BeNeLux additions have simply been to fuether expand the presence of those nations in game, with several of their most used vehicles and their unqiue modifications of popular family vehicles like the PTRL.

More French additons to air and ground are coming too
