Topic about Japan adds T-84 and VT-4

However, there are still many unresolved issues regarding the addition of VT4 to Japan’s tech tree. Firstly, VT4’s in-game protection is not good, and its mobility is also hard to compare with the existing vehicles in Japan. Secondly, VT4’s 7.1-second reload time and 577-millimeter penetration are unlikely to deliver impressive performance. In addition, VT4’s combat style does not match the entire Japanese tech tree, which is known for its mobility and firepower. Lastly, if VT4 is added to Japan’s tech tree as a premium vehicle, then why shouldn’t I just buy the better 90B instead?

Clearly, even without considering political factors, VT4 is not suitable for being added to Japan’s tech tree purely from the perspective of gameplay. Who would want a vehicle that is subpar in terms of firepower, mobility, and armor?

The VT4 is a vehicle with numerous bugs and modeling errors, and its performance is barely satisfactory. Why should it be added? This not only increases the burden on Gaijin’s staff but also has no impact on the system of Japan’s tech tree.

People who want to make lineups. Japan has three 12.0 vehicles and will soon have four to five 11.7 vehicles (seeing as the Type 90s are all moving up). Being able to add more vehicles will mean they get to stay in the game longer.

The game is already filled with situations like that, so this is hardly a point.

Then play another nation for ones.
Imagine having to play another nation besides Russia…

But their respawn points are likely insufficient, which will make them more inclined to choose SPAA rather than tanks.

And this will cause War Thunder to lose a large number of players - the Chinese community has at least 612,000 people, most of whom do not use VPN - this is illegal in China and there is a probability of being arrested

TBH, if its illigal for the Chinese playerbase to play this game, then why make such a big fuss about it.

Not only that, the VT-4 is thai modified. Just Chinese imported.
I didn’t here the Chinese community lash out because they got a F-16 or Mirage…

That says more about the people then the game.

But this will ruin the experience for many people, not just Chinese players - and you can’t solve the “people problem” in the short term.

AFAIK the DDoS attact on BF4 Asian server was pushed by some server owners…

Yep, if it’s illegal to play then gaijin can legally say screw you to the chinese community as they shouldn’t be playing this game lmao

Thing is, we already have worse situations than these examples with Indian vehicles being in the British tree. People protested that too given the history of both nations, yet gaijin seemingly doesn’t really care as they’ve continued to add Indian vehicles after the Bhishma.

This is just completely absurd. Gaijin doesn’t operate in China, and these Chinese companies wouldn’t have a lot (if any) of juridical power on a company based in Hungary. The prospect of them being sued to bankruptcy is ludicrous, especially since UE courts are nothing US ones.

Sorry but that’s pure bully tactics. “Give us what we want and how we want or we’ll ruin things for everyone”. Behaving like that sure as hell wouldn’t reflect well on Chinese players.

I hope we can get Ukrainian decals on the release of the T-84 as well, not necessary but would be cool or maybe skins would be epic. It is after all a Ukrainian vehicle but Im sure someones gonna publish their own version on wt-live if it doesnt come with it

Last Warning.
Stay on topic and discuss VT-4 and T-84.
Any offtopic comments will be hidden and author will be punished.

Translation: If a T84 with Ukrainian decals appears on wt-live, will the official respond to this? (After all, Waringame has been arrested in Russia)

After all, their paint schemes are really cool, and digital camouflage looks much better than the Soviet Army green.

No one cares. Live WT is full of great paintjobs made by our community. As long as they do not break rules, they will be available there.
