“two tanks, one SPAA” is absolutely the model that should go forward for packs, yep.
I mean Germany did have a good 5.7 line-up but then one of the BR changes up ended that. (unless I’m misremembering and it was 5.3)
Before some of the issues that pushed me away from Germany, I spent forever around there. Tho I guess I did have some premium, namely the Porsche Tiger and later the Sturmtiger
My agreement: Yes giving people full lineups is very good and this adds value for the extreme price tags.
My disagreement: This will end up upsetting game balance by making lineups far stronger if you pay money.
War thunder is extremely, extremely far removed from irl in many regards. I don’t see this as an issue.
How has everyone missed I was (primarily) talking about the looks! (the same operator nations just made it better and in my opinion more fitting.).
The fact that it mirrors images like these where the vehicles are covered in stuff is one of the best parts.
It’s honestly a good idea but I highly doubt Gaijin will start selling three top tier vehicles at a price of one.
i do like the idea , althought i would prefer to se more original vehicles in those pacs (not pure/mostly copy paste) , and this being aplied to all tier’s (obviously).
as example for a mostly or fully original pac , US actualy has a decent amount of anti air option’s that would end up at around or dirrectly the same br as the LAV-AD , so you could get a pack like
M3A3 Bradley , or a prototype bsed on the same platform
M3A3 Bradley , base in-game (10.0)
or
M3A3 Bradley with it’s ERA (BUSK) (10.0?)
or
BAE Bradley Next-Gen , Featuring a new larger hull with more survivability and powerful engine but features the same M2A4 turret (25mm M242 + TOW) (10.0 , but unlickely because to recent)
or
M3A3 Bradley upgunned with 30mm Mk44 Bushmaster II (10.0/10.3)
or
M3 Bradley upgunned with 35mm Bushmaster III (10.0/10.3)
or
M3 Bradley upgunned with 40mm CTA (10.3)
or
BRADLEY with the BFV / BUSH IV RC Turret System (10.3)

M2/3 Bradley Blazer Air Defence System "Three weapons , on chasi" option(10.3)
china also has A LOT of anti air option at any BR above 8.0 , an exemple of a pach with them could be:
The Ostwind II in game is a fake vehicle so it never saw service with the Tiger. Speaking of, obviously a Tiger from the eastern front did not serve with a Tiger from the western front.
Two Canadian vehicles which never served with the third, which is also from a different countries military.
If anything it should be with an ADATS system.
the two fronts pack is mimicking a group of vehicles which were actually in the same war and bere minimum same army
I believe these packs should be locked until the individual has the rank unlocked in the research tree.
Then it would defeat 50% of the point of Premiums, and specially, the whole point of these bundle-styled packs!
The point of making these “bundle” packs is to give decent lineups, be it to play them for the sake of it, or to grind.
If you force people to grind the tech tree equivalent before being able to purchase them, you are removing entirely the whole point of getting Premiums to grind!
That’s completely fine
Rather than two MBT, it would be better to include a MBT, an IFV, and an AA.
The tiger pack is already a missed opportunity in stacking two heavy tanks when it could have had a medium in there.
I had thought of that too! MBT, IFV/Light, and SAM.
No. “Two Fronts” pack it’s a good example of a kick-starting pack. It should not be replicated to high tiers vehicle.
This would help new players to develop enough surviving skills to get used to use a single vehicle for a entire match then he’ll be good to go with one single high tier vehicle.
I’m not saying this should be mandatory but at long time should help ODL encouraging players to buy cheaper packs with more vehicle diversity at lower tiers like Rank III where missions will be available to be completed also helping the player progressing in some other aspects in the game like Battle pass Challengers or Daily Missions.
Yeah if I saw a some pack where you can get 2 different styles of UAE Leclerc I’d buy it. Not buying anything this sale due to the fact its all such bad value
As already explained by @Константинович7, Two Fronts is an excellent example of a Rank III kick-start or Intermediate Pack.
Similarly to the Rank I Beginner Packs, it provides a mechanism for new players to enter the game with a competitive line-up, justified through the money that they invest. That said, the price is very competitive in comparison to the higher individual packs.
I suggest that Intermediate Packs be introduced for all nations, containing 2 Medium/Heavy tanks and 1 Light, Tank Destroyer, or SPAA.
Of course; but there’s no reason not to do this for higher and top ranks too.
Many players, experienced or not, are most interested in modern machinery and they should under no circumstance be gatekept from the possibility of gaining access to them as soon as possible through tools made precisely to grind there as fast as possible too.
However, the Canadian army regularly works with the German army, for all kinds of training or exercises.
other examples includes france , yes , france actually has a decent amount of DCA’s compared to what gaijin thinks , an example could be :
AMX-40-P1 (AMX 32 turret on a AMX 40 chassis)(9.3)
VEXTRA Dragar 25mm(9.3)
MATRA SANTAL plateform's(9.3)
LHOR RPX 90 MATRA SANTAL
LOHR RPX 90 (SANTAL), radarless high mobility SAM
or
ERC-90 MATRA SANTAL
or
or
M113 MATRA SANTAL
etc … (other mistral launchers , not MATRA SANTAL system , from 9.0 to absolute max 10.0)
A different example for France would be a top tier , with the initial removal of the Finish ItO 90M , since Finland is an official sub-tree for Sweden now , which wasn’t the case back then when it was first implemented. thanks to a good amount of options available that would fit this tier you can pick any of the AA im gonna be mentioning to be put in the tech tree , and any of the other one can be in a pack :
Leclerc E.A.U upgrade proposal from IDEX 2017 (which basically became the XLR)(12.0)
Leclerc S2 “trompe la mort” with it’s camo net ( technically is already a lootbox skin for the standard S2 , but without the camo net)(12.0)
one of those AA as tech-tree , and other one as part of this pack(11.7-12.0)
Berliet GBD 6x6 Roland M3S
or
M987 FVS Roland M3S
or
Renault Kerax Roland 2
or
M113 Crotale NG / SAHINE SHORAD , renamed M113 Liberty II (a proposed export variant to the US for the LOS-F-H SAM program )
or
FVS 987 Crotale NG
or
M113 Crotal NG
and a example for the brit’s now at 8.3 :
Vickers MK1 design 50528T (with 4x swingfire launchers , 2 launchers , one on each side of the turrets, the other one wasn’t in it’s lifted/45°up position in all 3 pics)
bring back the Vijayanta in this pack (players that already had it have a discount , or recives GE in exchange)
