understood, was hoping we make Gaijin fear us
The only thing they fear is their stakeholders, and consequently revenue numbers.
I regularly update my negative steam review to have links to their more egregious screwups, and since the chally “rework” I think a lot of UK players have given up. I know I’m not putting another penny into the game until they change (they won’t) or they go under and a western company buys WT (hopefully).

As long as it isn’t wargaming. Or valve. We want to see update 3.0
Tbh, anyone would be a better steward of the game than what we have now.

I doubt any of them are worse than GJN. Wargaming are still greedy, but they at least have principles/morals. The difference in reaction of GJN and Wargaming to a certain special operation in the last few years is pretty telling. (talking about the eurovision 2022 final of course)
Yup.
Can you imagine valve trying to get away with the stinger dev blog? It was egregious.

Or Rockstar
If it was rockstar, we’d just constantly get new tanks on the same old game for years.
Wait…

Rockstar also isn’t shy when searching for proper info
as much as i love playing Leopard 2 and Strv122 i don’t mind Chally 3 getting 5sec reload (deserve more than Abrams)
Wargaming and morals ? Good one.
I was playing warships from the very first hour, also competitive. They are the same level of greedy as the snail and in addition completely ruined their game.
War Thunder at least still is fun.
What happened with Eurovision?
I am speaking of years of experience with their greed and dramas.
I’m sure they are greedy, and I’m sure they have their fair share of drama. But if you read the above article you can see they did the right thing, at significant financial cost to themselves, when it counted.
A modern game company that made a good choice at expense of themselves

It’s bad when you have to comment a disclaimer under any post discussing the review bomb.
Mr Snail, you do need to understand why the community did it and why the community thought it was the only viable option.
I mean to be honest I’m accepting its fate. Fortunately IRL stuff looks like its gonna take me away from WT for a good while after September, so there’s that. I’ll probably come back to the horror show that is EFT implementation.
They have principles, and aren’t completely deaf to community criticism. The problem i’ve heard from people still playing is they don’t always action said criticism (see CVs and Subs in WoWs) and more importantly don’t attribute it to the right reasons. At least, that’s what I know of from dipping my toe in and out, and listening into Flamu and Jingles vids.

Well, new BR/balance changes are coming and this wasn’t considered…
Shame. Guess the suppossedly best British MBT in the game will continue to feel like a downgrade compared to its two previous vehicles for some more time…

Worse viability (no turret lining, no tail compartment ammunition pressure relief valve) slower rate of fire, slower manoeuvrability, no value Junk Xdddd
Technically speaking, this variant that we have in-game shouldn’t even have an upgraded engine. I’ve literally 0 clue where they pulled 1500hp for the exact same engine as every other Challenger 2. This version of the Challenger “3” isn’t even a 3 but is instead a Challenger 2 Advanced Technology Demonstrator for the LEP program (not even a full tank proposal but is instead a turret proposal), of which nowhere in any brochures or interviews with RBSL is there any mention of it going faster. The one thing a spokesman for RBSL says is that they’re looking at working with the MoD around the mobility of the tank (https://youtu.be/UuOxO3F0068?si=Ngky8xHLwQ_noOrv&t=419).
This tank they’ve chosen to add, if I’m being honest, should be a sidegrade for everything but turret protection and firepower, because it’s a frankly ridiculous choice.

exactly. if they dont change the reload time of it it should go down to 11.3.
this should never have been added as a tech tree vehicle. maybe a squadron one.
