There is nothing historical about this game anymore.I dont even bother with decals anymore,they went months ago with the last drop of immersion the game had.How about more anime pillows?

This needs to be done. It’s insane that there’s so many decals they can’t be obtained.

Agreed, these decals even randomly appear in the Battle Pass Decal Trophy and still appear as being obtainable via GE, but they are not. they really should just be obtainable off the bat. or, failing that, they should be obtainable via a menu setting to prevent clutter in the decal menu by default.

Honestly at this point I’d be ok if they added all the old authentic decals, but I had to pay GE for them. I’d be ok spending 200 GE here or there for Authentic decals.

You have my +1 and support, and I want to leave my comment for visibility.

I missed so many historical decals back then because of school and work. There is one decal as an example I want to see returning as either a monthly event or accessible purchase:

“The Cat’s Mouth” Hellcat noseart of VF-27 Squadron, USS Princeton, 1944

It was last seen on Halloween 2018, I think. It made no sense they decided to phase out and permanently lock this historical decal away. I would pay for this decal and slap on my F6F Hellcat and other warplanes.

If they bring old historical decals back through events, it will keep me motivated to grind and historically decorate my vehicles to please my inner nerd.

To whoever is a Gaijin artist/developer, please make this happen, and don’t let your artwork go wasted into the nonsense FOMO mechanism.

It’s a real shame so many historical decals are plainly unavailable new players. The biggest value of War Thunder is piquing the interest of history with all these vehicles, but so many more stories and curiosities are missed with historical decals being a secret to new players.

It would be nice to maybe choose a decal/camo to research and perhaps research it with a long time (like 60k research points) but with the possibility of having it for free.

If I recall reason it was probably removed was the fact that there wasn’t enough time for folks to get it since some folks are more busy, if anything per 1 1/2 months would be more reasonable compared to the Weekly Decals they used to do for a bit which was worse.

Honestly they could use the Pages of History. Make a common reward for each stage an authentic decal or camo that is tied to the timeframe.

For example: WW2 Era would give authentic decals or camo from whatever nation the person was from, that was used during that time.
So a German general of the army could give the 3 different emblems used by the 10th Panzer Div during WW2 or if they served in the Luftwaffe, it would give the emblem of Kampfgeschwader 55 or Jagdgeschwader 53.

They should make the old ones available through an achievement or something in game. At least visible to people so that they can decide if they want to work towards getting it. Maybe kills with a certain vehicle? Literally anything would be nice
