You and I both know that the official has some concerns on this issue, and the source of this concern is obviously reality. At the same time, I don’t think it’s “unfair” to lose a tank, VT4 doesn’t have to join China, I’ve never said that. I mean VT4 don’t join Japan. Even from a purely gaming point of view, the T-84 is clearly better suited to the role of a “tank” than the VT4.

Why lost right to complain? Its fair to complain and stay mad when they add this… I would like to see in the subtree…
The gaming pov is not rlly solid, bc why should you only play/add the better tanks?

Yes, but I am saying that a denial is unprecedented when the usual rule is avoidance of such issues. If Gaijin want to avoid it, they don’t add VT-4, but they don’t officially say it.
I don’t think it’s unfair not to add it in general, so long as it is ambiguous why that is done. Saying Thai players can’t get their tank because others don’t want them to is unfair, while it just not being added is nothing new and already happens to many vehicles regardless.
This is why I personally expected Thai ground vehicles to come with Indonesia, where the Indonesian Leopard 2A4 fills the same role as the Thai VT-4, which lets Gaijin not add it without causing people to question why.
Then in the future they might rework subtrees in a way that a Thai VT-4 can be added without issue, or if they don’t it simply is one of many vehicles “not yet in game”.

They can complain, it just shouldn’t be taken seriously. The M1A2T is a tank operated by the ROCA, so it can be added to the Chinese tree without any issue.

Well, if this question was less complex and sensitive, I would say you were right. I certainly understand that people in a country want to play with their vehicles. But now. This problem is not so simple to solve, at least, there is no shortage of VT4 characters in terms of gameplay. If the official insists on doing this, it shouldn’t be at this time.
As serious as my idea to give the iranian f14a due to its near to israel…
Guys stop talking about politics!
You can talk about the VT4 and T84 as this is what the topic is about, but do not bring any politics into it as these comments will be removed!

I retract what I said. It is certainly unfair to prevent people from a country from wanting to get their tanks. It’s just that there are more people to say about this issue.What I mean is that What I want to express is that “the absence of a VT4 in the current time period is not critical”
I honestly understand both sides of the argument. Personally I want to see full Thai armed forces, but I also see how with subtrees now that would technically place it “under” Japan by the name and flag of the tree it’s in.
So as far as that goes I understand that it’s problematic to add now, and as much as I’d like to see it understand if it isn’t.
But I also see a future rework for subtrees, where subtree vehicles would not be placed under another nation at all, but represented by their own countries flag and name alongside each other. I made a suggestion about this rework, and I believe this could resolve the issue if it is ever implemented.

If you can achieve this plan, maybe the situation will ease a little.
This part I can agree with. If it hadn’t been in the leak nobody would’ve made a big issue over it not being here immediately. With four Thai tanks being added, there is still many others that aren’t, the VT-4 is not alone.
I still believe there is solutions to the problem, and it can be added eventually if things change, but right now it’s not the end of the world to not see it.

DTW-125 apparently
Just 2 China regime refer to 2 period of time, in one tree named only China.
I wonder if they say Federal Republic of Germany, East Germany, German Reich and Weimar Republic is subtree of WW2 Germany?

That’s a mistake made by devs.
It’s in-game code is Type 65 SPAA, and many documents listed it as a Chinese vehicles at that time.

gaijin has confirmed that atleast for this next update that the VT4 wont be coming to the game
BTA4 iirc
Well they aren’t so they can only be annoyed at themselves i guess? Again with the dates. No date has been given for this update or anything to do with the vt-4.
The argument you’re making it purely made up drama which i kindly ask you to stop spreading.

ROC still exists, Taiwan still refers themselves and their military as ROC and ROCA/ROCN/ROCAF.
