Just to avoid headache at this point, I’ll reconsider and just go with this, considering my original suggestion did just gloss over the idea of a unified tree.
Although my main issue with a unified Korean tree is the polarity in alliance between the two countries now. How would that look in game? ( NATO vs Warsaw, with SK/NK being either or. )
Thats a political no-go.
Ingame matches don´t reflect real world politics in general. Teams are formed based on the availability of players.
In my opinion when it comes to a United Korean tree I’d probably have the tree as is and have NK be a single branch subtree inside of SK. The amount of unique vehicles they have that would make sense to be added to the game is pretty low, and I believe they’d just do best to flesh out the air tree, and maybe add a bit to the ground tree. I however cannot see them being integrated into the tree fully.
Its like saying that France should be a subtree of Germany because in the end they are both European. And yes, there is history and some bad blood between Japan and Korea.
check this
if anything the china situation in war thunder is even more proof to just make a united korean TT.
especially since NK vehicles which are based on russian tech don’t exactly not fit in since korea absorbed a craptonne of soviet tech following the collapse of the USSR due to soviet debt to SK.
a shining example of this is the fact that we have a armored brigade consisting of purely russian vehicles, which includes BMP-3’s and T80-U’s
An independent SK no it won’t work too small BR’s, not enough content over time and their air tree is way to small like at max one fighter line
At most 3 per rank and mostly C&P untill at the very top. As a united tree I guess I’m ok with as it solves most of the issues I listed but yea not as a independent tree.
What part of this tree is copy paste other than 3 vehicles lol
If you read properly I was on about the air tree
South korea should go to Japan as a subtree.
North korea should go to China as a subtree.
Pakistan would suit China better as a sub-tree.
DPRK has more Soviet derived equipment than Chinese, so another solution would be required than having them be a sub-tree for China.
Revisiting the discussion, but one major issue I can think of when it comes to a unified tech tree is simulator battles.
As it is right now, simulator battles are separated strictly by an alliance-based match making system. [ EG : Allies vs. Axis, NATO vs. Warsaw, NATO vs. Russia/China. ] If a Unified Korean tech tree were to be added, where would they stand in the Cold War match making? With this question in mind, the game doesn’t support a simulator split-Nation match up. [ EG : Germany vs. Germany, Russia vs. Russia, USA vs USA, etc. ] It’s either Pre-Cold War alliance match up or Post-Cold War alliance match up.
ROC is still part of PRC tree with the latter still only having one side in these sim battles. A United Korea would just be added to the side if west or east depending on what nation forms a bigger basis of the tree (that is my expectation).
Regardless, in sim battles there is practically no historical accuracy with the vehicle selection, so I don’t think Gaijin would see a United Korea as a problem because of this too.
Hype, makes so much more sense then combining the koreas or adding south korea to usa.
It has been shot down by smin, calm down.
why would you add A tonn of vehicles to one of the biggest tech trees? Moreover, Japan and SK are really good allies and partners
AGREE 10000%
Japan is perfect place for korea
Kinda sad, Japan could use some love and I would actually sell T-80UM2 just to buy Type 16FPS to grind for K2.
