From what i remember the chally 1 was not necessarily rushed but was apparently developed in a short period of time so might explain why they went with the powerpack they did. It’s also not the same as war thunder as it is irl, economy is a factor so army’s will most likely sacrifice HP for fuel efficiency. But i also agreed in WT the challenger 2 feels worse than the chally 1 because of the huge armour issues.
chally 1 rate of fire 3-4… well, very slow
edit: protection is better than SR(L) 4026
Just my two cents, but the protection value and crew survivability of the Challenger are all but a myth. It’s not nearly as well protected or survivable as other modern Western MBTs and the armor is behind the advancements of other countries composites.
There are a myriad of other issues such as ammo storage, the rifled gun, mobility, etc that makes it worse… But I am not trying to undermine the fact that the changes suggested would very much be welcome. It should perform better in-game…

Yeah main problems irl and in game but armour and era very much underperform in game and thats my main problem with it that russian era is so much better then the era on challys
I can’t believe this though call it british bias
If they want it fixed they’ll need comprehensive reports.
That data doesn’t provide the comprehensive numbers required for the reports. Not good enough.
It’s also EXTREMELY dubious that they could project the performance of modern 120mm penetrators or ATGMs up to 150mm. I seriously doubt it’s protected from either frontally.
It never is

I’ve had no issues reporting things when the real data was available. Even when it wasn’t, comparative analysis and extremely comprehensive cross analysis was sufficient.

The era used to have good values but it got nerfed but the others who spend time on this could probably explain better

As far as I am aware, It has all been submitted. With 10 times the amount of detail normally required for most nations, they just say its not a bug and we have to start again. Currently the TES’s ERA is theoretically insuffeicent to stop an RPG not to mention provide any protection against anything else. The amount of data we need feels completely rediculous, especially when you compare what we have in game vs the level of protection given to the T-80BVM

I don’t think this is the case, or it was presented poorly (no offense, I haven’t seen the reports). I’d be glad to help if we could gather information here for further reports.
That is my current compiled bug list
The issue is I dont know what reports may have been filed internally or that I havent seen yet. Also getting information is really hard because… well… Its Classified. Unlike most Soviet tech, But even little things aren’t modeled right, like crew positions. So there is definetly things that can certainly be changed, that have been reported, that might mitigate the sheer lack of armour the CR2s appear to have.
Though I think we can draw some educated guesses based upon available information for other tank ERA, etc. But it will always be guess-timates. But Gaijins currently guess-timates are on the extremely low end.

I think I’d like it if there was more colour options, like blue, green, red, orange etc.

I think it’s fine
especially since it’s an esports skin and as someone who was well aware of esports in other games, lot of teams enjoy black/pink and in general black with some color
