Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

I know everyone’s excited to try out the new update, and as a Japan-main, I’m definitely feeling some of that. The Super Tigris, Stingray, Oplot, and two ships are a rather nice gift to Japan, which is usually the lowest of Gaijin’s priorities. The addition of the Indonesian Mi-35 is tantalizing too, as it promises the addition of the very unique (if Gaijin desires to) vehicles of Indonesia, such as the Su-30, Rafale, Harimau, the Pindad 8x8, and so forth. That being said, I can’t help but have …

I left an apropos comment regarding the VT-4s future in the new RR thread, lmk what u guys think

[yjie1028]

Nothing, just a notice talking about Gaijin gonna answer China players about Thai VT-4 to Japan issue. They said they will answer it at late September. (Until 24 September 2025, 1735 GMT+8 haven’t answered)

It’s not just about this issue. There are also long-standing problems and bugs that have been plaguing Chinese tech tree players—and the latter is actually more important.

@Eigelb_OwO

Is the intent to provoke Chinese players? Moreover, the VT-4 is widely considered an underperforming vehicle in the game—even Chinese players rarely use it when superior alternatives like the ZTZ-99A are available.)

Nobody is trying to provoke the Chinese. The Thai people used this vehicle, so they deserve it in the game. Adding a Thai vehicle outside of the tree they share with Japan is out of the question- When a country becomes a subtree, they stay there. Israeli vehicles haven’t gone anywhere else since they became a tree, same with Italian and Swedish vehicles. *For a better example, South Africa had a vehicle in Germany but then became a subtree of the UK and has since not had any vehicles go to any other tree. The Superhind could’ve easily gone to Russia as an upgraded Mi-24.
And why would they want the VT-4 to come to the Thai subtree just to provoke Chinese players? If they really wanted to provoke the Chinese community, then they’d go shit-talk you, not call for the Thai people to receive their MBT.

@Eigelb_OwO

why would they actively seek to include Chinese military assets in their tech tree?

And the VT-4 is not an asset of the Chinese military- they’ve never used it! It’s not even in service! 3 countries and their militaries use it, the Chinese do not.

@Eigelb_OwO

haha, In fact, it is related. Ever since Thailand TT was linked to Japan TT in the game, all of this has become relevant. Yes, if Thailand TT were separate, no one would object. But to Japan, everything becomes complicated.

Nothing is complicated. Thailand is not “under” Japan. To say that Japan should not get this vehicle, is saying Thailand should not get this vehicle. They share a tree. Nothing is complicated here, a Thai vehicle should go to Thailand. Japan is a sideline topic.

@Eigelb_OwO

The poll you cited is neither large-scale nor conducted within major Chinese communities (e.g., Tieba or bilibili). It cannot represent the broader player base. Official surveys would be more reliable.

The poll was on Tieba.
And it doesn’t need to be large scale to support accurate assumptions. Scientists use sample sizes of 1000 to come to conclusions for populations in the millions.

This is on topic. Its about the VT-4s inclusion.

[Cpt_Duck]

Love coming back to this.

[PlayedStatue626-live]

There is no Thai VT-4 in Ba sing se

[CharAznable3]

What a sad state of affairs we live in. Hopefully we get the Malaysian T-84 to fill in what the VT-4 was going to fill.

[yjie1028]

@CharAznable3

Malaysian T-84

Bruh, WTF?

🤣

[CharAznable3]

Lol no but a hidden gem I have bless by @soviet_MoonMan

Malaysian T-84(Object 478DU8) --- Hidden Gem

poll [image] Object 478DU8 Introduction: Howdy yall! today im making a suggestion for a unique and rather unknow version of the Ukrainian T-84, the Malaysian T-84 Object 478DU8! while very similar to in service variants of the Oplot, this specific tank was made and sent for tank Trials in Malaysia. In game, this oddity of a T-84 variant could be an easy way for the Gajjin to implement a earlier version of the famous tank without having to worry about where to fit a Ukrainian sub tree. Given …

Malaysia blessed with 2 tanks

[yjie1028]

@CharAznable3

Malaysia blessed with 2 tanks

Nope, if tested tank counted than is definitely more than 2. We also tested T-90

[CharAznable3]

That’s new to me. You should go do a suggestion with that! Good for you. 3 for 3!

[yjie1028]

Also German try to sell us this

[CharAznable3]

That’s good many alternatives for the VT-4 if needed. The German one looks to be the best alternative!

[yjie1028]

Nah, it just a Leopard 1 chasis with a T-72 turret

[CharAznable3]

my God its made out of explodium. Its perfect for 7.3

[Pheonix_RX01]

This hurts to look at

[CharAznable3]

Very true which makes it perfect. Its the best weapon you cant shoot what you cant look at.

[Pheonix_RX01]

Speaking of Malaysia you ever seen this?

[CharAznable3]

no what is it?
