Used this to buy the USA Starter Pack
Why are we discussing this. They've abandoned the roadmap, they're back to ludicrous premium prices and ranks. Time for another skull fucking by the community, it's about that time of year.
75$ "we are not the greedy ones" yeah sure
I feel like Corporate is retaliating for the review bombing 💀

you’re not forced to buy it just get the f-16 or somethin

"we won't add premium jets"
"we won't add high tier premiums"
Sure...
"we wont add stealth aircraft" i fear the arrival of the raptor....
One thing I know they 100% are never going to add is more interesting game modes. Game design has just never been in their set of skills.
@@prancer8934 adding interesting gamemodes would require them to rub two brain cells together
@@camilorodriguez5602 Watch the F-117 be a premium (which would kinda make sense since it can literally only carry two bombs and no air-to-air ordinance)
It was inevitable and I thought they clarified that they meant at this time meaning it was planned for the future but not at that very update and time. If they didn't add "top tier prems" then we would have stopped at tier IV.
I was hoping this plane wouldn't be a premium vehicle, I feel disappointed.
There were 3 of these produced, the chances of it being a premium/event vehicle were always extremely high
As much as I hate it
Im unsure how much it deters whales. Regardless this is still absurd
Weit for f22 premium vit 100 $ in 2025
Better than a event vehicle
@@bt_the_yank6234 yeah its true, but brother this plane would be perfect to fill the space between the F5E and the F16. But hey, gaijin can't miss the opportunity to make money at the expense of a vehicle that everyone wanted.
1:25 I love the concept of "we no longer wanted to be beholden to a promise we made years ago, so we're now breaking said promise because it's more convenient." So you're just lying? You are straight up saying, "nothing we say matters and you're fools for thinking we were ever serious."
I think even 30$ is a huge stretch at an acceptable price for a wt vehicle
Mill-sim communities are conditioned to thinking this is acceptable behavior
If they make them that cheap then everyone and their dog will be in premium vehicles
stupid take because there is enough premiums as is
@@mrcaboosevg6089 everyone and their dog is in premiums
Your not just buying the vehicle model but quick acces to a whole techtree. A high rank premium will save you a lot of time and give you access to hundreds of hours of contenet if you play most of the vehicles. Plus SL for everything else
Fun fact: The F-20A pack costs more then DCS: F-15E
I really wish I could afford a PC to run DCS.
@RT42069 it actually doesnt need a heavy pc to play it, but you WILL NEED A HOTAS AND THROTTLE
@@Ghost75654 my 32 Gigs of Ram would like to disagree as they still try to process anything bigger than FC3

@@Ghost75654 I've had some fun with the su-25t with an xbox controller and an aruco paper tracker. Works nice.
After doing so many things that were really good for the game and liked by the community, gaijin manages to break it all down with a single decision.
Color me surprised. Is not like they would have a change of heart after doing the same milking shit for 8 years. It always goes back to the South park meme "we're sorry"
There will also be a full 10.0 Russian premium lineup for ground, T72Turms, t80ud, 2s38 bmp2m, su25. AMAZING
@@SomewhatSummarized Bro that cash russian line up is insane. We just need a better Pantsir premium 🤮
@@SomewhatSummarizedwhen did they show the t80ud?
@@SomewhatSummarized Don't forget the Obj 292.
At least in the US is costing only 5 dollars more, here in brazil it's costing the double of the recently announced centauro and strv. The strv and centauro costs 189 brl and the f20 its costing 379 brl. Almost 1/3 of the monthly minimum wage lol
Im so glad to be born at the other side of the pond xd
How many US prems will you implement?
Gaijin: Yes!
Can we go back to when the premiums were little known vehicles or especially painted copies of tech tree vehicles to conmemorate a special person?
As an example, we can have a special pilot's f104 be just an f-104 (of whatever version) of a pilot who became an ace or did something outstanding with the f-104 and painted to reflect that.
The worse part is all the bland and uninteresting premiums they keep adding to the USA tree means that interesting vehicles that should be premiums are less and less likely to show up. Looking at you m1 kvt and click bait
atleast the USSR prems are good
which is good, locking unique vehicles behind a paywall sucks@@jakeogroton
@@abidbmtt that's the issue...
5 vehicles for preorder already and another update teaser with mostly copy paste vehicles...wow, Gaijin, you really outdid yourselves there
The US, USSR, French, German, Israeli, British and Chinese got cool stuff
But Italy, Japan and Sweden got boned
Copy paste, and that’s all you get
I’d loved to have seen all the domestic WW2 fighters from Hungary
Or an Italian Trainer, like the G.59 or G.80
Some Swedish light tank
Or a Japanese helicopter
But nope
Just CTRL C + CTRL V
Japan did actually get something, it's Battleship Mutsu in her 1922 Confirmation
Because of that it has no AA and bad gun Elevation, because Gaijoob loves to Shaft its players
Don’t forget the map is copy paste too!
@@benkendall7489 yeah, you´re right, and we´ll probably get a snow version of some map too...I wish they did the opposite, making summer versions of snow maps like Finland or Volokolamsk, that´d be awesome
Gaijin try not to screw over the USA tech tree challenge: impossible
I’m convinced it’s not the US top tier players, it’s the US lvl 20 players that buy top tier shit

@@firestar7890 as if they arent already in the ground
not like they have the most op cas options throughout the whole tech tree
@@ZigzagEnd we’re not talking about the USSR or Great Britain here
Yes because the U.S. 11.7-12.7 BR range really needed a premium vehicle. I’m sure that’ll help the already struggling win rates. Literally the same situation as the Click-Bait Abrams
i really didnt want this to be premium
I rarely buy premiums as personally they do little to help where I am at in most trees but also the price points are just way too high in my opinion... not even going to get into the absurdity of the marketplace...
I always try to think of these as bait for new players, regardless of how much I would like to have and use these premiums, they just aren't a good value in my opinion... should be much lower.
I would like to see the f20E in tech tree, but since alot these planes are in Taiwan or south Korea it's likely ending up in Chinese tech tree which will make me sad. Oh well.
@@My3lilmonstersI thought the f20 was a cancelled prototype aircraft
Well, top top tier is gonna be filled with 1.5 mach mid altitude 6 missile slingers now.
They’re only aim9ls tho they can be flared easily and especially by premium players at RANK 8

Sucks that my second beloved American prototype is going to be a premium but at least its coming to the game
What’s your first?
@@christopherchartier3017 X-29
What is first one?
X-29
"We aren't greedy" lmao yeah right
Yeah, I thought paying 60$ was a bit far. This is just sad.
I still remember when their stance for the first while was 'no vehicles past 1954'. Yeah, that changed.
Then it was 'no guided weapons'. Then the IT-1 came.
Then it was 'no guided weapons from aircraft'. The Fritz X came, which, eh, fair, I could see. But then the FJ-4B VMF-232 came with Bullpups. That's the second I decided, 'they will never stick to their word ever, the goalposts will always change.'
That was also near the time that I started having my first real frequent hiatuses from the game, maybe only playing 30-40 hours a year instead of my previous grindset
75$ is actually insane, no vehicle should be more than 40$, given the incentive to buy premium, and other purchases in game
50$ would be a stretch but 75 is way too much
Do you want even more premium jets in the sky? there’s enough as is
exactly.
@@bambotronn Do you want more grind? Theres enough as it is.

Can't wait for the F-35 to be $100
they gonna milk those f35 to the moon. From the US variants to nations variations.
Other countries already have to pay over $100 for premiums already. A rank 7 premium here in Australia would set you back just over $100 au
$100 ? Nah man, that's the half off sale price. It'd be double that knowing Gaijin.
@@Karter_Blackpaw Said rank 7 idk what an f35 would be like rank 12
Advocate against only selling vehicles in bundles.
The F20 as example has about 24€ of stuff bundled with it, a reasonable price for the bundle would be 60€ and 40€ if you only buy the vehicle (for top tier, lover tiers should have lover prices)
lower tiered premiums do have lower prices?
@@bpop2148 currectly premiums around 10.0 cost as much as this one SHOULD cost. Those should go down a bit if you understand my point.
@@bpop2148 the Vidar costs 60€
Funny story, after queueing for a game, a player asked what the others thought. Is the F-20 is gonna be a premium or a tech tree vehicle?
Half the lobby said German tech tree lol.
I think wt has some of the Apple effect, where everyone you ask says their products are bad value and overpriced yet theyre one of the most valuable companies of all time. The reason theyre making 75usd premiums is because no matter how much the audible people complain theyll still sell tons.
Because the game is free and semi pay2win. They just hide the OP vehicles in the marketplace for $2000.
@@zeitgeistx5239 technically some of those marketplace vehicles were free for the sellers, gaijoob isn't deciding the prices on them it's ratherr supply and demand.

What’s next a M1A2 SEP premium? MiG 29 premium? This is bullshit it’s always the most anticipated vehicles that they always put behind a paywall
I got the f15 so I would have good teams full of other f15s, f16s, and f14s…. Now it will be full of lvl 7 premium players who’s best vehicle is the sb2u-2
Yep, us teams are gonna get lobotomized
Just means my mirage 4k and 2k get to feed for free
America was already the only team that would not try and dodge radar missiles I’m looking at you f-15pilots
I feel like corporate is retaliating for the review bombing 💀
they don't even try to hide their greed now, I feel like a father that's about to become absent
Bro like 7 premiums in one update. I don’t know if I can’t deal with this company anymore.
I would have been happier if it was put as a reward for one of the air grind events, as much as it pains me (because I love this aircraft) I won't be paying the price of a AAA game for it
I always thought that some premiums, if not all, should be researchable, like how they've done Squadron vehicles.
An interesting way of handling it could be that purchasing with GE/packs will get you bonuses, premium, and talisman, while conventional research yields none of that, just the vehicle.
I'll get it on a 50% sale later in the year.
Yep. By Christmas. I waited nearly a year for the A-6E, but I'm not sure if 8 months of wait is worth 30€ for something I want to play NOW.
True but it gives the vehicles time to mature and settle down, you'd get an idea what its worth few months later, maybe something new comes and its far better.
I abstained from getting the VRCC Centauro and Type 16 FPS cus I hoped something better will come in their place and would you look at that, something better did come.@@valrond
The event burnout is a great point. I occasionally do events (but genuinely enjoy just zooming around in the game, no love-hate relationship here), but an increased mission score goal for a thing that is everpresent is not a way to keep people engaged. The events were encouraging because they were special and seasonal. Now they're just another battlepass that demands even more activity. Event vehicles have to be something that's much tighter into my interests now, where before I might try for an armored car now and then because they looked fun, regardless of country.
I think its time for another Strike, since Kirill Yudintsev, creative director of Gaiijn said this last year to calm the strike:
"Player progression is essential. You can't give a player everything at once, because it will overwhelm and make the game very difficult for them and they will just leave it either immediately or almost immediately. This has been tested by us many times in different ways. When applied to our game, later vehicles are almost always more difficult to learn and play tactically, in the controls and with its capabilities. Progression provides opportunities for gradual learning and engaging the players. Without it, the game will lose players right from the start."
They haven't learned anything, and they are just laughing at our faces because they know people will buy the vehicles at any price they choose.
$75 is quite a lot for such a low-fidelity plane. Although with how long it takes to unlock stuff in the tech tree, it might even be less of a waste of resources this way.
This plane is going to get absolutely dunked on at 12.0

IMO it makes sense for it too be a premiums since it was just a prototype, the issue i have with it is the cost and that its in top tier.

To be incredibly honest i am kind of happy for this. The F-20 is my favorite plane EVER with the F5 coming behind it so having my favorite plane as a grinding machine does seem pretty appealing

"we will never add top tier premiums"
*adds premiums which BR get uptiered to top tier
*straight up top tier premium aircraft
Oh freaking finally... I'm excited.
I would say that no single vehicle should be worth more than $30.
The game itself, sure I could see $60, or even $70. But a singular vehicle? In a f2p game? No more than $30, and I'd even say it shouldn't be more than $20, AND packs should exist.
You are right, but you know why they are doing it ? Because people will buy this in hordes.
Gaijoob: "There won't be any rank V premiums"
Gaijoob now: want a rank 8 prems?
What I wonder about is how far do they place the price ceiling for those prices. Are they actually going to figure it out in a trial by fire way or do they have like an internal idea. And if they do - what if they want to add higher rank premiums later on? 75 bucks is already a lot. Are they going to go for a hundred as well?
For 75 bucks you could buy
Escape from tarkov (which is amazing and broke my wt addiction)
Dcs, trust me, it isnt that difficult in modern jets, and fun to learn.
For 75 bucks u could buy an F-18 and F-16 with ur Newcomer 50% off
@@Lexus-fo3ey thats being discontinued soon.
Yeah, I love the F5s and the F20, I'm very disappointed it's premium and I won't pay that much for. If it's half off, Maybe that's still pushing it.
My only issue with the F-20 is the lack of confirmation regarding AIM-120 or not.
That's kinda the thing though: IRL, it never got to test AMRAAMs, however it might've had the capability (though there's also the chance of the capability being reserved for prototype 4, which was less than half-built when the program was cancelled in 1986)
because they already said it's been pushed back.

what gets my goat is people used to complain about DCS modules being $50+, even though they have extremely accurate flight models, everything in the cockpit works, radar is simulated properly (usually), etc. $75 for tweaking a visual model and copying-pasting everything else, wtf
I was called hyperbolic for saying we were about updates away from 80 dollar rank VIII premiums, i can now say i was right
I’m exited not because I am buying it, but I like cool premiums to test fly
gaijin setting a strange precedent for prototype aircraft. 1 of 1 mirage 4000 tech tree and then this is a premium. i pray tvc prototypes like su37 and f15stol will be tech tree
a premium should be a variant of an already existing vehicle used for grinding, not something most of the community wants that is now being locked behind an absurdly high paywall. even if it goes on a 50% off sale, gaijin usually doesn't do that for the first year of release, this means most people who do buy the tigershark will have to end up waiting well over a year to do so. i understand that gaijin is a company that needs to generate revenue, but locking one of the most highly anticipated vehicles behind a £70 price tag is incredibly out of touch.
I just wanted to see what they added in the dev blog and all I see is preorder stuff. Like I get finding new stuff is hard but why is a majority of the new stuff pre orders, like the Traam, that was unique. I still remember when they said the we were greedy for wanting basic and understandable things added without having to spend money, this game I dont think will last long
Just hate how no mater how much these premiums are there are still going to be so many people just buying them the second they're out, feeding Gaijin to keep doing this over and over. There's a reason why we think that almost every new vehicle is going to be a premium.
ITs about time for them to add a % discount for every premium you already have. Anything above 10$ is MACRO transactions. There is nothing micro about spending almost a 100$ for a virtual thing, it does not matter if its a pack, skin or whatver. YOU can feed yourself for a whole damn week with 80$ wtf
Well, it's test flight time
tbh i get your point but i kind of think let people do what they want with their money. i wish though theyd produce these things for lesser played nations. the UK, italy France etc as they lack a premium to aid with the grind to top tier which to me is the purpose of such vehicules..
I guess we will see the FA-18 and SU34s in WT this year
I love my Su25s, they are my go to vehicles for a bit of fun. That doesn’t mean I’m going to pay $70 for the Su39.
"We wont sell top tier premiums" - gayjin
I've been anticipating the F20 for years and im so fucking disappointed to see that I need to pay 75 fucking dollars for it. I COULD BUY THREE COPIES OF HELLDIVERS FOR THAT MONEY AND STILL HAVE 15 DOLLARS TO SPARE WTF!
yay, more jets for me to text fly because I'm never gonna make it to jets
1:40 Coulda been more honest and said that "no top tier premiums" stopped being a thing when they added the M46 Tiger in 2014.
I wish that they released a copy paste F-14A "LATE" as a premium instead of a unique vehicle as a premium. I may be one of the few who don't mind premium vehicles, but I think they are better as copy paste vehicles that players can buy to supplement a lineup, or to grind a tree out but not a unique vehicle that is locked behind a paywall.
YIPEEEE NEW TOP TIER AIRCRAFT THAT I CAN TEST FLIGHT
I was afraid of this happening, but I guess it's inevitable they'd make it a premium
RIP any chance at flying the Tigershark
5:33 AM and I still can’t sleep 😭
Sleep my Alaskan child.
A little caveat is that the F-20 doesn't actually have its proper loadouts. It should get AGM-65H's instead of the nerfed B's, and it never used the 7F but rather the 7M, though in War Thunder there isn't a difference between the two. It should also have AIM-9P-5's.
The upcoming DCS F-4 Phantom has one of the most insanely detailed aircraft models ever put in a game. I mean they are literally going so far as to simulate the friction of cockpit gauge dials. All for $80 USD. They make War Thunder look like an absolute joke and it's honestly insulting for Gaijin to ask that much for any in-game item.
Are you going to use the same Super Étendard footage in the future again? 😅
😬
Congratulations gaijin on the new-found fortune. Id love to say this won't succeed, but I've seen too much to know better.
I don't even play top tier and this pisses me off
Love this aircraft thanks to AC5 and the damn aircraft is a premium
On top of that it's $75?!
And it's Rank VIII?!
They. Do. Not. Care.
Snail lies, Snail greedy.
The fact new players can buy top tier vehicles is baffling, when they said that they wouldn't do it
And here's what's funny, we all know they aren't going to stop at Rank VIII, there's so many more potent aircraft they can add, going to be selling $150 premium aircraft eventually
It needs to be illegal to sell digital products for more than 55-60 Euro
We don't want players to skip ahead... Oh wait they'll pay for that? Mmmmoneeey
Between the 16 v 16 and this cash grab, i just dont know if im interested in Air anymore in War Thunder. Its just a cash grab.
This just makes all the people who got rank 7 premiums obsolete
I was hoping F-20 would be tech tree, I hope at least at some point they add a tech tree F-20
Dont forget the possible inflation created by bot/cheat accounts that seemingly have numerous top tier vehicles purchased on each account... which in turn are boosting these sales causing gaijin to believe their price points are reflected accurately to player base...
Israel getting a Mk3 premium over the missing Mk3D the US has is absolutely tragic, they only get 2 tanks for 11.0.
personally think every single premium should be around $20 and a pack maybe around $30, I have some prems but I've only ever bought them at discount
I dont like the increased price of premos but gotta realize the game is getting bigger more players are coming in and they have to maintain their severs and that cant be cheap
F-20A should have been a normal tech tree jet.
Ok I’m not apposed to paying 40-50$ if what I’m buying is worth it. But I’m not paying almost 100$ for a digital vehicle that’s just absurd there’s no reason to charge anyone more than 50$ for something we don’t physically have access to.
I mean in the End as you said, this game is absolutely huge yet it‘s free and despite the price people actually buy these premiums. I’m not a top tier player because I think at the moment the game still has to evolve to make more modern jets work so I don‘t know how much they affect the gameplay. But all in all let‘s just enjoy what we get for free and not complain about the specific rarer jets that actually have a cost to play right?
I feel it wouldn't be that bad if they increased the content in the major update
I'd love to get the F-20 but theres no way I will pay 75$ for an upgraded version of a plane I already paid 60$ (well 30$, got it in sale) for.
World of tanks had the most players and was never better right before they started making top teir premiums and premium tank meta
