Hi,

Unless I am mistaken the value of the tank remains the same after you have purchased camo with GOLD.

Last time I checked that was the case but that was pre 7.2.

Why is this? Camo would be an improvement to the vehicle like adding a gun or engine etc I would assume, so it should improve the resale value of the machine.

Is there any plans to make it increase a vehicles credit value once GOLD camo is applied after all it is a permanent change to the tank?

Cheers

that and they should allow you to change camo skins on your tank while keeping the old one so you can change them without deleting them. and if you sell a tank with more than one camo stored for it it should be worth more still

non-demountable equipment also increase the value of the tank
so the devs should let camo paint do so

But the camo paint does not add anything to the tank other than looks, i  think if u sell the tank tis on like all other equipment u should be able to take it off n put it on another tank, doubly so if u pay gold for it

you guys need to remember that everything you do to a tank that effects resale value are all items that have in game effects, improved engines, bigger gun, faster reload, etc.  As camo does NOTHING in game except show everyone that you have extra money to spend, it should logically not add anything to the value of the tank.

Don't tanks have stock paint on them when you buy them anyway? Why would a different pattern of paint increase the sale value...

I buy it cause I want it not to impress..

1250 gold costs about $6.90 Australian. that's about $1.38 for one camo skin on a heavy tank when it's on sale like it just has been at 50% off.

I spend more than that on the Jim Beam I drink while I play. ;)
