I loved destroying F-14s when they first came out using the F-5. It was quite relieving at the time. Shot down quite a few of them as they usually caught fire and died within a few seconds. I miss those days.
Don’t forget it can take more than 2 weeks for certain reports to be accepted(like a bug on Xbox to be accepted not even fixed, just accepted). How is it smaller game studios can get a bug heard about and fixed in less time but it takes more than 2 weeks for one to even be acknowledged on this game on console? I can understand it with vehicle reports but a standard bug report? It makes no sense.

My main point was that the Leo2 in the Benelux TT didn’t have to be added at all.
France has plenty of prototypes or variants of the Leclerc, to the point that adding 3 copy paste Leopards doesn’t add anything the French TT needs. It only kills variety in the game.
The whole point about the Lorraine was the same. I know the Lorraine MLe 50 is an event vehicle. That’s why I said a Tech tree version of it should be added (the mle 51 could be added as a TT variant. Which removes the need for another M44/M55 that is being used by multiple other nations. But keeping the tech tree more unique. Copy paste vehicles are alright, if no domestic option exists, but that simply isn’t the case for France.

I am very much biassed on this as I am Dutch myself, so I do like that they were added. I do not like HOW they were added though, it’s a reall shame they keep butchering indigenous tanks just to effectively replace them with Leo’s or Abrams’.

And the air tree? Completely barebones!
Only came with the Fokker G.I as the only domestic design when it came out.
Missing lots of bombers (including torpedo bombers) and even more prototypes.
And thats WW2/Interwar only.
Millions must Fokker
But seriously, so many great Dutch plane designs (Fokker, Koolhoven) left to add, and we mostly got Belgian copies of already ingame planes

They don’t even bother with camos when they add subtrees.
Ki-27 Otsu,Ki-43 and Ki-21 could have recieved thai camos, since they saw service with Thailand.
In fact, those Ki-27’s saw combat and even scored a kill vs a P-51, But noooo, we need copypaste jets and a SB2C-5. Didn’t Thailand be in Japan TT because they were “allies” in WW2?

Except there’s only 1 copy-paste Leopard 2 in Benelux.
The other 2 were still built to be as accurate as possible to Netherlands Leopard 2A5 & 2A6 as possible by a lovely 3D modeler & research team.
Unique vehicles will always come.
Just cause there’s M44 doesn’t mean AMX-13 155 can’t be added.
I’ve been playing this game since 2014, I’ve also put a decent bunch of money into this game and there is a reason I’ve been sticking around for so long. At the same time I have taken multiple breaks and have been considering to stop playing altogether over and over. I mostly focus on air RB and I don’t play top tier so my comments are gonna be focussed on that area.
I agree that the stale game mode doesn’t help and seeing another copy and paste subtree added does not really get me excited for the next update.
But my single biggest issue is the balancing. We often have vehicles absolutely dominating specific BR ranges, like the premium Su-30s, the Yak-3U and previously the F8U (which they tried to lower again) and at times it seems Gaijin actively ignores community feedback and you end up with compressed BR ranges full of unplayable vehicles: As an example they added all aspect missile carriers way too low and as a result moved supersonics down to 9.3 and since those started clubbing everything below them gaijin moved the most popular 8.7s down, so now we have Mig-15s and Sabres against Me-262 (at some point almost the Spitfire) and at the same time less frequently played vehicles like the Venom are left to rot. All of this was predictable and all of this could have been avoided with a little bit of decompression.
I can understand that predicting vehicle performance isn’t as simple as looking at numbers, but when the devs insist on raising Zeros again and again, while completely ignoring other vehicles that the community is desperately trying to get raised, or just ignoring lesser played vehicles, it just gets really frustrating.
In terms of solutions, well how about we decompress a little, stop using player statistics so much, actually listen to community feedback and maybe we could even be a bit more reactive with single BR changes of problematic vehicles between the big rounds. After all the game is a lot less frustrating and much more enjoyable when you don’t have to constantly face the newest op flavour of the month.

No. It just means it won’t be added because gaijin has an excuse of there already being an equivalent in the tree

Nicely laid out polls, only feedback I have is that the Russian bias question could be answered differently depending on what aspect you are looking at. Which makes it a little harder to definitively answer.

nice poll goes over most aspects of the game and another thing I believe that gaijin should be trying to focus on more is the transferring of console accounts to pc accounts as now the temporary suspension has been going for about 2 years and we have even had developers say that nobody is working on it

For all intends and purposes they are copy paste variants of the Leo 2A4; Leo2A5 and 2A6 in the German tech tree. The only difference between the NL and original variants is the fact that the machine guns are the FN MAGs instead of the Mg3a1s (which functionally only differ in the RoF (200 rpm lower). Ammo count, belt size etc. are the same) and they have slightly different smoke launchers. If they didn’t have a different skin, you could not tell the difference.
The leopards have been added since November 2024.
We have yet to see any meaningful unique additions (e.g. the AMX-13-105; which while similar to the SK105 ingame was a French designed tank operated by the Dutch (most others opting for the 90mm or 75mm).
The CV9035NL is basically the same as the CV9035DK (different machineguns, and has access to a laser warning system, but is 2 tons heavier). It’s also a squadron vehicle instead of a premium. So it’s kinda moot, as it doesn’t really add anything to the tech tree…
Instead we could have seen some YPR variants. Such as the YPR-765 PRI (Dutch IFV with a 25mm. It was made with cooperation with the US. But is otherwise a unique design). Also used in Belgium service as the AIFV-B (slight modifications) which also came in a MILAN variant or the YPR-765 PRAT (Dutch IFV modified with what is effectively an m901 turret.
The variants of this vehicle were infinitely more unique than the Leopards, M44 or M55
