Follow the Crazed Otter Guide to whether Gaijin will do Something. CROTGOGS for short.
Is it Russian? If not. Then No.
Will they make more than a passing effort to get it right? Refer to Q1.
Will they accept primary sources existing that support X or Y characteristic? Refer to Q1.
Will they ensure that they do not artificially make stuff up to nerf a vehicle (cough - turret baskets on vehicles that don’t have them - for example)? Refer to Q1.
Can they be trusted not to make a completed dog’s breakfast of any British vehicle, particularly the Challenger 2 and it’s various forms? Refer to… you get the idea.
Unfortunately, this is likely going to happen against Relikt plastered T72s. Likely not intentionally, but because it’s convenient to be lazy around modeling the nuances of ERA against kinetic penetrators when it favours a major tree to do so. Plenty of coin from major trees, less so minor trees. Doesn’t help Germany’s paying playerbase is fumbling about with tigors, instead of up at the higher echelons with leopards.
Yeah see, we thought the exact same thing with the L27a1 being able to pen K5, but oh boy were we wrong. Gaijin don’t give a ****. we gave a good couple sources that state that L27a1 can pen a T80 with K5, but gajin denied it saying that it cant pen a T80 in game even without the ERA, so it cant be true.
“Sub trees doesn’t mean that local vehicles aren’t being considered”
Probably Smin or another manager/moderator right before gaijin decides to not add anything non copypaste to a tree for the following 3,5 years
Also doesn’t help they ignored adding our Abrams to the Brits over the periods of famine, yet now we have something else to add suddenly the copy paste shows up. It would be a credible argument if over the periods of neglect they used the subtree, but it never is.
