Bring Back HSTV-L’s Turret Basket

Not 100% on why it was taken out, but I genuinely love the way it looks more than it does in game, and it is more accurate the the prototype it is based off of. Just want to see a generally opinion on this.

It’s already modeled, not sure why it couldn’t be a visual modification we can toggle on and off.

HSTV-L could also use this as light MG protection for the rear of its turret.

I’ve never seen it with the turret basket, ig I wasn’t playing at the time, but it looks cool AF

It looks awesome, but for some reason they removed it nearly as soon as they released it.

Could be because of it being an overpressure nightmare? But even then…?

Dang that sucks

Idk. I feel like it’s already so unarmored that it wouldn’t really matter??

Yeah 100%

I just can’t find anything about it’s removal whatsoever

Don’t even believe it’s in a blog post

We already have toggleable drip on a few other tanks, such as the camo nets on premium tanks or the fake KVT mod for the premium M1.

This basket only adds weight like the above changes but I 100% want it because it is a vibe and I love big ass turret baskets on tanks.

Love this too… 😉😂

Big ass turret baskets for the winnnn

I cannot lie

Seriously though, greblies / just random junk / more stuff on tanks gives them a lot of personality, and this is a prime example of this. It serves no practical gameplay value, but by god it looks cool and I want it.

Precisely, and well said

I wish they would update the model in general, and remove the side skirts/add all that stuff in the basket.

Honestly the side skirts are absolutely beautiful in my opinion.

Well then at least they should make the side skirts a removable module like the M1128’s slat package

That could definitely be added, but knowing gaijin probably not since they hate players with good ideas

I just highly wish for the turret basket since they teased us with it in the blog photos and then removed it without warning

If this post was able to gain traction, maybe they could potentially return what was taken
