Flags are usually added during updates and you will see them usually here https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/game-updates/update-01110-japanese-light-cruisers/#content-additions-and-changes or in the logbook.  Unfortunately there is no flag which resembles Romania there. Which is kind of a shame because many other navies got at least a flag.

 

WG has been in Romania at 15th August, it was the perfect opportunity to launch a Romanian ship or at least a flag, to attract casuals. What even is the point of coming here during Navy's Day if there's absolutely nothing Romanian in the game? Celebrating the RO navy by playing other navies? :cap_haloween:

 

OP if you really want a Romanian flag you can do it by modding. There is a tutorial here 

 Basically you can replace any flag with a flag you want.  I think it still works, I used it several months ago. The main issue is copying it every update which is kinda annoying. Technically it can be done via Aslain's pack custom mods but I haven't tried it yet. A lot worse is changing the text as you basically have to repeat the change operation manually every update..

tbh, i really now am curious as well on the reasoning of why romanians got a bull patch for their national day. looking at the german re-unification patch, im midly confused.... or the simple fact that there aint a flag ^^...

 

from just a quick check-up i couldn't find any deeper relation to romania and bulls ^^....

a very similar looking bull is featured on Romania's coat of arms. Unfortunately there were no other existing assets in the game relating to Romania.

How's it possible that Finland had a football shirt patch and Romania hasn't?

 

BTW that bull is seeing stars someone's hit the poor thing on the head. I'm reporting this to the RSPCA.

thx 4 ur answer! imo that's really a bit off odd to empress nationality. it just as well could be a "red-" bull or be mistaken with the logo of the chicago bulls. more than a sportspatch than anything else.

 

i dont think this is a solution tailored to satisfy the feeling of national heritage/identity.

A long time ago various patches were created for the world cup event we had at the time, which likely only included nations still in the running.

Except a LOT of Romanians playing and most of them also paying!

 

Well, I guess we should be happy instead we have like 15 azur line flags, not to mention a ton of other useless and ugly flags that nobody uses!

 

Thank you very much, Sera (for your answers - btw, that bull patch we had it already without being linked with our country, so thank you for your consideration), WG and whoever else might be responsible for these decisions.

1. You will only change what YOU will see on YOUR screen. The other players will see the original flag you modified.

2. Also ONLY on your screen, if any other player uses - just by coincidence - the original flag you modified, you'll also see him as having Romanian flag.

 

Add to this, the fact that you have to manually modify it again after every game update... not worth it (in my opinion).

for example we have in game the Czechoslovakian riverine navy flag, except that, this flag we have in game was used only from 1935–1939 and 1945–1955, so hardly those 100 years as the explanation says

well, actually i find this as an insult, that they choose the bull to represent our country, it has nothing to do with that.

@YabbaCoe @Crysantos @MrConway aparently @Seraphice can't come with a real explanation why wg choose to add the bull as the national symbol of romania, do u mind guys joining the conversation?

 

"Unfortunately there were no other existing assets in the game relating to Romania." i mean we could always use google, and the fact that u were in romania in august, during the navy day and u probably saw that there wasn't any BULLS used as a "national" emblem

they didn't add anything, that actually is what i'm a bit triggered on. its kind of a poor move to simply "sell" a patch which been in client already as i understood it as "symbol of romanian identity".... like, "oh, romanian nat. day? dang, they even got such? 1 hr. left only?! sheeeet, lets look what we got in client already ^^".... "oh, nice totally unrelated looks-a-bit-like bullshead. representing moldov..... pfff, scrap it: representing romania! period!"

 

that's how it reads.

Could we ask for some garlic too?
