This was one of the instances where the Leclerc is portrayed better than TKX/Type 10, and although I can’t remember where the first original statement in my head came from I remember the words “I unlocked the Leclercs and put my Type 10 down, as it has better survivability and still plays the same.” verbatim.
And I replied with skepticism as they don’t have hydropneumatic suspension, so there’s no way they could play the same :D (Me trying to have a win over a declared better tank)
In short, the game at level 10.3-10.7, up to level 11.7, is utterly ineffective for any nation other than Russia. I understand the game’s developers are from that country, but I think you’ve overestimated the quality of Russian hardware in this game. This is why I need to end my adventure with this game. You’ve ruined it just to show off some supposed Russian power over others, which has no real impact. Thank you for playing, and I think I’m not the only one who has thanked you for this game.
Lucky you, I’m NA West so I also get all the Asian players who sweat lord the game to all hell (No, it isn’t “he’s being racist”, it’s literally I get a lot of players from China, Korea and Japan as I’m in Hawaii and the times I play).
Gaijin, for whatever reason, made it where HEATFS will detonate and rather than having the round aimed to the rear of the turret (like it is IRL), it’s modeled to detonate toward the crew compartment. Not like the M1’s were damage tested with a full turret ammo rack of HEATFS and detonated and the only thing was some slight smoke entered the crew compartment or anything
You’re getting us because SA is unplayable most of the day due to everyone here going to sleep at like 10 pm and starting to play only at 4 pm’ish lol.
SA is also incredibly unstable, still…
Chinese players are not complain worthy though, lol.
I was always curious why around 0200 central time all my teams became CN/RU names. Isn’t the ping terrible? Trying to play on anything but NA for me will have my rounds disappear if I’m killed before my round hits.
Which for the most part is rougher than during the day as everyone seems more “for themselves” gameplay, the teamwork just plummets during early morning teams.
But at least they move more than 5ft out of spawn more often.
Got killed many times by those today. There’s not much one can do against LMURs when in a stock vehicle. Even hiding behind buildings does not guarantee survival. And I would be fine with that if not for the disproportionately small amount of effort they require to use.
It’s known that certain people on this forum will mock others for complaining about “Russian bias”, sometimes very rightfully so. However, at some point, one has to acknowledge that the current top-tier (and now even top-tier-adjacent) experience is becoming rather unpleasant, exclusively due to one particular nation. Now, what else do you call this phenomenon other than “Russian bias”?
I jest of course. “Russian bias” is not real and everyone saying otherwise is a schizophrenic.
Would help if NATO would get the Hellfire L so Longbows could actually do their job like they’re supposed to. Gaijin LOVES to give Russia their IRL equipment but artificially nerf NATO equipment (for example, Russia just got the IRST on their ground vehicles but NATO is missing the laser track computers)
It is. The lowest I ever got was 210-250. Top tier becomes basically unplayable by conventional means. So I resort to Spike slingers/SPAA/CAS during that time. I have no choice though. Because usually when I have time to play - there are no games on SA. Waiting time might be as long as 8 minutes for a simple small top tier match. Imagine what it is for mid BRs…
