LINK FOR MAIN SURVEY "https://forms.gle/BDrEwE3Sv93rSknE9"

This shall hopefully take 5-10 minutes to finish. All it's about is simply what you anticipate yourself gaining prior to scrolling, what you watch. How worth it was it, what did you miss out on, and why do you still do it? I believe almost every question requires a response although for the demographics section you may refuse to answer most questions. For all questions you do decide to answer, all I ask for is for you to be honest. If you wish to troll or to give me an automated response or to survey yourself more than once, then you're simply ruining my little study for my English class. The professor tasked us with answering this question "What is TikTok, and why do people use it?", I already did a separate survey about how much time you spend using it and what you see. but I never stopped to ask "What do you stand to gain; and at what cost?". The old survey is this https://forms.gle/jFnrottSb8VQPMwu5 although you don't have to do it since I have enough data to make a educated guess on certain things.

Hey everyone,

Like a lot of Simulator players, I’m incredibly frustrated with the state of top-tier visual identification. Vehicles like the Taiwanese M1A2T Abrams sitting in the Chinese tree mean you are constantly facing identical silhouettes on both teams. In a mode with no name tags, this leads to accidental team-kills or getting blasted because you hesitated.

I know Gaijin won't rip apart the tech trees or move Taiwan out of China due to progression/grind metrics, so I put together a concept for a **Sim-Only Faction Selector** that solves the issue elegantly.

**The Idea:**

When you queue for Sim in a mixed nation (like China or Germany), the game asks you which side you want to fight for in that lobby: **Eastern** or **Western**.

* **If you choose Eastern:** You play on the Soviet/Mainland team and your Western vehicles (like the Abrams/F-16) are temporarily locked out for that match. You drop in with your ZTZs.

* **If you choose Western:** You play on the NATO side, and your Eastern vehicles lock out while you use your Taiwanese armor.

**The Only Exception:** Rare, historical premium "captured" assets (like the German T-34) would stay as wildcards since they are unique single vehicles. This filter is strictly meant for standard, bulk-procured military imports that completely bloat the standard trees.

This would apply exclusively to Sim. It wouldn't touch Arcade or Realistic queue times at all, but it would completely save Sim from the copy-paste nightmare.

I’ve opened a formal suggestion on the official forums with a poll to try and get developer visibility on this. If you guys think this is a step in the right direction, let's discuss it, and please consider dropping a vote on the forum poll once it passes moderation!
