Gaijin’s logic is that Sweden bought theirs from France, whereas 131 is still a captured vehicle.
Ims skeptical tiger 131 would be controversial. Its such an iconic vehicle. And britain is such an inoffensive nation. Honestly it would go well in lineup with the cent mk1
To be fair, for AHS/Mi28 there wasnt much else they could give the heli tree. I dont like the Kungstiger, I would have rather they added the KV-1B/A to the tech tree, or the Kranvagn/Strv K - but its better then nothing.
At least its a BP vehicle, so its not that egregious.
(The same can be said of the Japanese tiger, but they are in an even worse spot vehicle-wise lol)
How about this American captured King tiger?
Fully get where you’re coming from, I just really hate the precedent it set.
Everytime snail allows such things, it just opens up the slippery slope for other people to ask for such things, and it doesn’t take long of that for WT to devolve into the other F2P tank game.
Like I can recall seeing footage from British Pathè, of a Jagdtiger being driven round a British evaluation circuit. We would all, hopefully, be able to collectively recognize giving Britain a Jagtiger on that basis would be ridiculous, so it really upset me to see so many Sweden mains pushing for, and defending the Kungstigers addition, when it’s every bit as nonsensical.
Tbh I think we were just happy to finally get a heavy tank 🤣
though tbf we had already set precedent with the III/IV soo…
I wouldnt mind Gaijn taking at least some steps to “devolve” as you say, if only for the plausible/realistic paper tanks. Would help minor nations round out their trees, and as long as they are plausible (And modelled as accurately as possible), I think it would be fine.
For planes though, I would have it contingent on universal FMs for all aircraft. (Presumably using some sort of wind tunnel software for consistency, its something I honestly do want.)
Pretty sure this is a paper design only.
I think German mains would legitimately riot if there was a premium version of their best Tiger II in another Majors tree.
The ire towards the likes of Swedish Tiger / French Panther are lessened because not many players use them. (And they aren’t the best variants)
US players on the other hand would spam this thing out in hordes.
I won’t I main both trees.
Mesa would have fun
no.
It uses KwK 42 L/70
Why not both? (Evil Laughter)
I also prefer cuckoo if we need to choose ‘only one’ of both for a new addition.
Still, As long as America has Capture A6M2 (Akutan one maybe) and Swedish received Kungstiger (French Captured King tiger which got shipped to Sweden for test purposes)…
It might be fine to have Tiger 131 too.
We will have a real good time with Centurion Mk.1 supported by [Captured Panther and Tiger] XD
Wdym no?
Look at this picture, THIS is not a a real Panther.
As i was right, it is a mockup made by a Polish team. Made for a MOVIE. Look at the tracks and running gear.
I think both of you guys are misunderstood each other
@Kamikadze_Guy, Ghostmaxi are pointing out that the ‘picture you provided’ was not the picture of a real panther tank but mockup props by Polish guys for making the movie
@Ghostmaxi, Kamikadze_Guy is saying that there was a real panther tank captured by Polish forces during the uprising.
We don’t need more copy paste from major to minor nations
of course, copy pasting from minor(or other major) to major nations are fine. right?
- A6M2, Bf 109F, Skink, Ki-43, Ki-61, Spitfire LF IX,
- T-34, KV-1, KV-2, Yak-1, IL-2, Wellington, Tempest, Churchill
- M3 Lee, M4A2(76), Pz III, Pz V, Spitfire with some american props.
while
- ‘Litterally no captured vehicle ever has been implemented’
Tigris or Japanese tiger? Both of those seemed uncontroversial.
While ground sim suffers less than air sim due to fixed line ups… given it is premium it might still get enabled.
Please no more copy paste vehicles. China is a bad enough source of “is that friend or foe”, we seeiously do not need more of that.
If someone wants to play a tiger they can play axis nations.
There was a lot of kick off about Tigris, because of the tracks mounted to its UFP.
Yes. Really.
