Price in gold in the tech tree are the final price with the discount (around 10500 gold for a T8, instread of 12000, or 275 gold for T2)

@Finitan - yes i understand. However my tech tree is showing 900 gold for a tier 2 P.38 from Europe where the special shows it at 50% discount and should be 450 (as an example). This is the same for all my plane sin the tech tree.

I have restarted the game and launcher and this has not made any difference.

[Finitan]

try to send a ticket to the support. I don't know what can happen from your side. I have lot of bugs with this game but not this one. Are you launching the game on EU server  for the launcher ? And did you use any VPN ?

I know that in some region (Belgium for example) RNG crates are note possible to be buyed but here it's a discount so no RNG apply.

The Winter Trials do not seem to be applying the Gold discount for buying planes in game. I have gone to buy them through the tech tree and also through the depot and in both instances show full price and no discounts (as shown in the winter trials special mission). Has anyone else a similar issue or work around?

 

Using free gold I've recently accumalated I purchased the Seafang, Me209 (T5) and P39Q (T6) today and only paid the discounted gold price. Maybe try a clear cache startup?

The chances are that, if you buy something, the discount will be applied.  However, that involves taking a risk!  It is so that this bug has been seen before.

This is a known issue, being a display bug. It shows full price, however it will deduct the discounted amount - should you happen to pay full price, I believe it's subject to reimbursement via Support ticket. Clearing cache while starting the game should correct it (not guaranteed).

apartclassic is correct saying that its a purely visual issue connected with the cached data. Just clear cache and you'll see discounted prices. However, even if you see full price while the event is active you'll be charged the discounted price. The dates and times of discounts are mentioned in the dedicated article.

and what about the BF 109 E3 ? I sent a ticket about this one : visible in the discount list but not in the tech tree so we can't buy it with the discount.

Gold discounts are applied only to the premium aircraft available for in-game purchase. The BF 109 E-3 is a special aircraft that have never been available for purchase using gold. It was mentioned in the list accidentally. 

[Finitan]

And if we said please ?

 

 

[TungstenHitman]

...kinda raises the question of the point or the logic of purchasing gold doesn't it? The amount of premium aircraft actually worth bothering with(the average to good ones) is more than a few, but certainly not lots. So, once a player has those premiums, then there's not really a whole lot else to do with gold worth purchasing it compared to just buying whatever it is was needed from the premium shop instead, which tend to be for better value too more often than not, such as premium time etc.

 

I mean sure, if we get gold from free crates and events then it's fantastic to have this non-purchased gold acquired to treat ourselves to a gold premium in the tech tree offerings and to purchase premium time with it, perhaps some perma-camo etc, but otherwise, I don't see much point in actually purchasing gold compared to just purchasing whatever it is was needed with cash from the premium shop during some discount or package deal instead. Perhaps there's some applications where purchasing gold is genuinely a worthwhile undertaking.
