National Flags now cost 500 GE

As of Feb. 10th they changed from FREE to 500 Golden Eagles. PER FLAG.

Oh wow, I understand it. The real war looks up even in gaming.

Seems like a lame excuse to me. "Some of our players are retarded enough to transfer a real-life conflict in game and that's why we are taking away some of our free content". Totally legit.
That's the real reason - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0kcet4aPpQ

Was gutted as I wanted to stick a few flags onto my tanks, Pfft forget about it for now what a joke!

That's quite ridiculous,this is a WW2 MMO for goodness sake! I can't believe people are narrowing it down to agressive political discussions. Human stupidity never ceases to amaze me.

I got shot down from friendlies many times because I got Greek flags on my wings. Some retarted that want to spread hatred and conflicts even in online games. It was the only time that I was forced to brake our CoC and shoot back...

First of all i have to warn everyone that Team killing is against our CoC and we all agreed on that when we joined.

Now about the flags, well ... they have a point, i think its better like that it would be better if they removed them completely but then again... why not make some money :sasmokin: .

Lol ^

Too many Ukrainian flags out there. I saw a tank with a Russian flag covered by a big X and next to it was a Ukrainian flag with a heart.
Gaijin should remove flags completely if they think this a problem, but if you pay for it it's not a problem.
It's not 500 for each vehicle. If you buy it once you can use it on all of your vehicles.
There are only 5 nations in game. 5 X 500 GE = 2500. 2500 GE costs $14.00 (US) not a lot of money.
So.........if I give them $14.00 then I can abuse flags of every nation.

Classic Gaijin logic :doh:

There is a flag for each country in the world. Not flags for only the 5 nations in-game. But yes, once you purchase that decal, you can use it as much as you want. I somehow doubt that someone will pay $500 +/- to unlock EVERY flag now.

What is the point to lock flags unless you buy them?

Follow the link at the beginning and read the full article.

Before this whole ordeal, some of my planes have a NZ flag on them. Even though I now have to purchase the flag, they haven't removed the decal at my end. So I can still see the flags that I used. Don't think anyone else can though.

Will say that I had some planes designed with flags soley for color and they still look the same to everyone else, so you should only have to buy flags to newly add to planes which will certainly never fix the problem. I actually used one of the flags that caused the issues I guess but only had it on for the color.
