I saw the official response. Setting aside politics, from a gaming perspective, VT4 is indeed a great addition, as it can increase the gaming time of 90B and enrich the diversity of the game.
This is what they’re referring to. Its an admin saying they have no plans to add Chinese-||made||vehicles to the Japanese tech tree, meaning it was still a possibility- just not at the moment. This comment was posted over a year ago. Its unreasonable to assume that this is a strict rule, as it looks like nothing more than a “Not yet”.
||edit||- just said Chinese. The VT-4 in question is used by the Thai army, by Thai soldiers, on Thai lands.

those who do the chaos didnt understand at all what was said by the admins(this and when it gets released)
I’ve spoken to a fair amount of die-hard Chinese players and even they don’t get the chaos some people are bringing up. Its just a game, afterall. It’s not like they’re throwing a Japanese flag on the VT-4 and releasing it on a sensitive day. Even IF it came with the major update released in September, we don’t even know the date of the update and getting mad about it MAYBE landing on a specific day is crazy talk.

Which APFSDS round is this?
Can I also add since I remembered it, Japan has a captured WW2 P-51. Yes the very aircraft that was fighting against the Japanese. I didn’t see an American complain about that the only issue they complained about was that it C&P

I support adding Thailand’s VT4 to the Japanese technology tree. Similarly, I also support adding Taiwan’s (Republic of China) M1A1T to the Chinese tech tree.

I mean the situations are perfectly comparable, I’m going to say it very simple and will use the M1A2T as an example:
- Taiwan is officially part of the Chinese tree in WT
- Thailand is officially part of the Japanese tree in WT
now let’s go to the vehicles:
- The M1A2T is a fully US designed/produced vehicle exported to Taiwan.
- The VT-4 is a fully Chinese designed/produced vehicle exported to Thailand.
The situation is exactly the same in game. It’s simple, if the Thailand sub tree should not get any Chinese designed/produced vehicles than the Taiwanese part of the Chinese tree shouldn’t get any US designed/produced vehicles.

Please stick to the topic. Insulting a player is against forum rules.
I am more inclined to add the T84 to the Japanese technology tree. This has nothing to do with nationalism. It’s just that the VT4 is already in the game, while the T84 is not yet in WT. Furthermore, due to the poor relations between Ukraine and Russia, the T84 is only playable in the Japanese tech tree.
If both VT4 and T84 are added to the Japanese technology tree, then Japan’s top ground BR will be too OP.
T-84 would be really fun. I also hope to see more Ukrainian vehicles in the future like the BTR-3E1 and BTR-3RK also operated by Thailand or the BTR-4M operated by Indonesia.

I am not sure if they would be top BR.
The Oplot could be top BR depending on ammunition, but if it is only 3BM42 it might only be worthy of 11.3
The Thai VT-4 variant is also worse than the Chinese VT-4A1 at 12.0, since it gets worse ammunition, only FY-2 ERA on the hull, no APS and 100hp less for the engine. I would also guess a BR of 11.3

That’s fair, the M1A2T should be kept from the Chinese tree if we’re gonna complain about the VT-4 with Japan. (My opinion is that politics should be barred from gaming no matter the geopolitical situation, there’s absolutely no reason for it, it’s childish and lame)
And it would help if Gaijin didn’t cave on stuff like this, they will get over it (you’re supposed to let the baby cry and it’ll eventually tire itself out)

Wut. Top tier Japan is essentially two MBTs and one SPAA, adding two more MBTs ain’t gonna change much because people very rarely spawn 4 MBTs in a single game.
Japan’s lack of high tier support vehicles is crippling enough to ensure that high tier Japan won’t be OP. Maybe some of the Thai light tanks like the Stingray and BTR-3 will change that, but if it does (which I kind of doubt) it won’t be due to both the T-84 and VT-4.
The only thing that adding both the Oplot and the VT4 would do is give people options in flavors, that’s all.

I agree
How come stating the fact becoming insulting?
so like would the vt4 and t84 get the top chinese round or some rubbish export round
