Then we don’t add the VT-4 to Japan and we don’t add foreign designed vehicles operated by the ROC to China.
I already won the argument a while ago, only reason why it’s still going is because Chinese players want special treatment, they want to have their cake and eat it too (or whatever the saying is in english).
If you want to believe in that and discriminate against the Chinese so be it. I already gave very good reasons and if you don’t want to hear my reasoning then fine.
The only counterarguments were “hurr durr ROC part of china, Thailand not part of Japan” and “it’s insensitive”.
The latter is fair enough even though it happened 80 years ago. However the first argument doesn’t matter at all in game, ROC and Thailand are officially part of the Chinese and Japanese trees respectively in game, there is nothing that will change that at this point.
Easy solution:
Have Chinese player accounts not have Japanese decals visible, but everyone else has access to decals as before.
Minimal effort to implement, everyone is happy.
These identical issues will replay themselves across future tech trees
whether for Korea (North/South), Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, or other nations/regions lacking sufficient vehicles to fill a tech trees. Only the players debating will change. The core problem remains completely unaddressed
Hiding decals on other players vehicles has already been added as a feature for exactly this reason and is enabled by default.
why should they? that doesnt hurt anyone, just more combinations
It’s not coming on September 3rd brother. In fact it’s not even coming in this update. Please spread this fact in the chinese internet if you can, it seems many chinese player don’t know the latest official statement regarding thai VT4.
Sub trees are basically nations within nation. They are kind of independent. Just because a host tech tree gets a sub tree that doesn’t mean that sub tree’s vehicles are now owned by the host tech tree.
It doesn’t hurt me, but what about the Chinese? They say they don’t want the Thai VT-4 to have a Japanese decal on it, but people can already do this with the Chinese ZTZ-99A and other chinese vehicles in the Chinese tech tree.
so. they shouldnt change anything then - it’s already fine as it is.
Youre expecting too much logic here. Its not a logical converation its not a reasonable conversation. Its a converation about hate, nationalism and ww2.
The fact gaijin entertains this at all is stupid
The core problem is people being dumb and unreasonable.
The reason why people dont want eastern european vehicles in the ussr tech tree is becayse there is no real reason to do so. The ussr tech tree is massive, the tanks are completely unrelated besides ancestral bond. A way more reasonable choice would be a united tt, as many of the nations composing it are nato members in the first place.
For an asian tech tree its a different story natuons vary massively and realistically have very little to offer. China essentially has already a subtree thailand going to japan makes sense from a game pov, a united asian tt would very little to offer and would be a bad addition imi
Dont bring stupid politics into this.
It was sold and exported to Thailand. “VT4” is not unique to china.
Yeah some has been divoiced already and we will continue to do so if the thread drifts in Wrong direction.
Racism both ways is NOT tolerated. Stop with this disgusting behavior already, we’ve been quite clear.
I am another Thai player and I can assume more than 90% of Thai players love and prefer to be the sub tree of Japan and if you’re not believe me I can send you the War Thunder Thailand Community and you can join there and ask all the Thai people there what do they think. Are you brave enough?
Then what is the point of having Pakistan there in the first place???
The topic is about T84 - VT-4. Please keep to those vehicles.
This topic is political from the very start and should be removed, and yet the only thing removed are being comments which are “political”.
There are plenty of vehicle that shouldn’t be where they are right now because of politics and yet they are where they are because that’s where they fit the best at the moment.
In addition as far as I know VT-4 is primarly an export vehicle meaning it’s gonna end up in other nations.
Thailand as far as I know is NOT Japan, they are PART of their tech-tree because JP literally lacks vehicles post WWII and this is partially the role of Thailand, to give Thai players their nation vehicles and to increase the overall volume of available vehicles in Japan.
I’m pretty sure in the stats card there’s gonna be a Thai flag, not JP flag, crew voices are gonna be Thai not JP.
If VT-4 an export vehicle for Thailand will not be added to JP tech tree then Taiwan vehicles should be removed from Chinese tech tree as well and moved to another.
