Reddit is the morely likely site, since it is focused on discussion (even if the subreddit is “peculiar” with some takes or simply become rant posts)
Youtube/Instagram/tiktok are simply video sharing platforms, you can see it on the YT comments on the official channel of WT, just some kid requesting x thing within like 1 sentence, 2 if lucky
That’s exactly the problem with copy-paste premiums. Instead of putting development time into adding genuinely new vehicles or expanding the tech trees, Gaijin can simply duplicate an existing vehicle, slap a premium label on it, and sell it for real money.
From a business perspective it’s cheap to produce and profitable, but from the player’s perspective it adds very little actual content. I’d rather see resources spent on new vehicles, better game mechanics, or fixing long-standing issues than another copy-paste premium being sold for €70+.
Copy-paste premiums don’t make the game more interesting—they’re just an easy way to monetize existing assets with minimal effort.

Gaijin constantly adds unique vehicles to tech trees.
Copy-paste is a minority of additions, & has never once been a notable amount of any update.
Premiums should not be unique whenever possible, or if they are unique it should be decoration differences over the tech tree version.
The new 189 is a perfect premium, I only complained that all uhu variants in-game are not TT.
Me-210 released pretty well, with the small Japanese premium making little profit, maybe they can add that premiums just count as Rank IIIs.
The 20mil finnish fokker or the Morko Morane. Or the funny ki-44 with 40mils
They are all excellent premiums since how balanced they are, you don’t lose a lot, but the cool aspect is right there, aided by the low price tag.
Ofc people don’t buy them because You can’t grind with them a lot, no rank III its kind of a bummer, and the improved rewards just make it so you skip the rank they are at quicker.
Stopped watching bros video after he said “delete naval and infantry” invalidated after that.
Some takes are extreme for sure, naval just needs to be more easy to comprehend or simply needs better in depth tutorials
Didn’t try infantry nor saw interest in it but people are caught by it for sure.
Fire and Ice literally added a full line of mostly Copy & Paste tanks to the swedish tech tree.
the teaser was hilarious
You can also be individual like this one, that when you disagree with his opinion,you are bootlicker. Yes i got DM like this lol.
You can add tank like the finnish T-34 which could have seen actual differences are simply copy pasted with a bluish green and a finnish roundel on the side.
Instead of trying to merge ideas they simply look for the “perfect” one.
That’s how you end with echo chambers… Like Reddit.
yeah I’m noooooticing the F-14D chat rn
If you don’t like it don’t buy it simple as
As long as they finally buff my smoll F 14 A and B, I am happy about it ;)
Bro am I insane or is that ze big kirk

Hello!
It sometimes feels to me like Community Managers no longer experience the game in the same way that the player base does. Do you and your colleagues actually face the same frustrations that many of us encounter daily?
I understand that developers may not have the time to play the game as much as the community does, and that Community Managers are responsible for passing our feedback to them. However, from a player’s perspective, it often feels like the same problems are discussed for months, yet very little changes.
Every day, you and your colleagues read bug reports, complaints, and feedback from the community. But I rarely see your personal perspective on some of the biggest problems players talk about. Have you ever experienced things like the BMPT when it was first introduced, or the frustration caused by excessive top-tier CAS? Do you ever get the feeling that something in War Thunder’s balance is not quite right?
I love this game. It has taught me a lot about history and military technology, sparked interests I never expected to have, and even helped me discover what I would like to do in the future.
I don’t write this because I hate the game. I write it because I care about it and want to see it improve.
Selective copy and paste
That is better than locking unique vehicles behind a paywall like they did with the EBRs and other vehicles. Locking stuff like the Fw-189, Pucara, F-14D, or every single unique domestic Finnish aircraft behind a paywall is objectively bad.
Highly depends on your own personal definition. Mine is, if a vehicle doesn’t have any meaningful differences from the one it is based on/most similar to, then it’s copy/paste. This makes most Magachs not copy/paste, but something like the Dutch Leopards or the new F-16 in the French tree copy/paste.
I agree.
