Challenger 2 MBT - Technical data and Discussion (Part 1)

Yea, i guess the usual, dev server added things get priority, rest later

Don’t feel too down - Just the name “Challenger 2” being spoken by the Devs is a milestone lol
They have now openly acknowledged CR2 has an abundance of bug reports, moreso than any other and gave it a special spot to talk about it. Its reassurance that they are actually looking at it (With no small thanks to Gunjob for voicing his concerns I bet) and will address bigger problems soon.

The ball is rolling now. For the first time in years.
We may well one day look at having 500 Challenger 2 variants in our TT as something good, not just dreadful

I guess i sounded down. That is not the case. I just stated they the things that are added in said update get priority over old things fixing. That is fine, as the moment things are added, they get the most love.

The main thing is they’re talking about it. They have less reason to ignore the problems with Chally now they have a premium to sell. which, whilst i don’t like it, is significantly better than before where there was no talk about it whatsoever.

This seems like something that other tank game would sell as a premium…
