What do you think should be the fate of Singaporean Vehicles in the game?
- Singapore in one Sub-Tree under Israel
- Singapore in one Sub-Tree under China (Gaijin’s original proposition)
- Singapore in one Sub-Tree under Japan
- Singapore in one Sub-Tree under Other nation (Comment and specify)
- Singaporean content is held off until a better suitable nation is added as a main tech tree to the game
- Singaporean vehicles split over multiple trees (Current situation)
- N/A
In the upcoming update, the devblog for the Singaporean Hunter AFV has clearly outlined that the future of Singaporean vehicles is to be split among multiple trees.
Dev Note: As mentioned last year in a Community Update news, Singapore’s ground vehicles will be distributed among various in-game nations, taking into account the characteristics and needs of both the vehicle itself and the nations where it might be added. These characteristics could be technical or gameplay related. For example, the Hunter AFV’s weapon module is Israeli-made, and Israel has virtually no variety of light support combat vehicles in War Thunder. Therefore, we believe the Hunter AFV will be a welcome addition to current and future vehicle lineups for Israel.
From what I have gathered, splitting the Singaporean vehicles over multiple trees is extremely unpopular with the vast majority of people, you can see this by just reading through the comments on the devblog.
As a Singaporean myself, I would like to propose that Singaporean vehicles are kept together in one sub tree, similar to those added recently such as Thailand. This poll is to see the popularity of such an idea.
Personally, I would far rather have Singaporean vehicles together in one tree, regardless what tree they end up. The idea of splitting vehicles and suffering in the same way as Canadian players do makes my stomach churn. It is extremely disrespectful to Singaporean players to put them through the same experience, clearly outlined in the past all over the forums by Canadians and others, to be very unpleasant. People do not want their own country’s vehicles split up.
If Singaporean vehicles do not bring enough variety to Israel, to warrant breaking them up over other nations, I urge Gaijin to reconsider where it decides to place our sub tree. If it becomes necessary to withhold Singapore as a sub tree until a future tree is added, I would far rather that option is taken.
I would very much like to see the reaction to this poll, and if this gets seen, would like to hear a response from a developer if possible.
I’m open to further discussion, please let me know if I’m wrong.
