Yay more RNG calculations to the game that barely functions in its current form…
No.? This would (technically) make maus killable with M16. That is a huge nerf.
Dude… That’s still a nerf lmao.

No, getting less of a nerf than other people in a zero sum PVP game is a buff, straight up.
If it was PVE, then sure, you can get infinitely weak, and it can get infinitely hard. But PVP, no: the average win rate is 50% no matter what, the average KD is 1:1 no matter what. So if everyone else gets more worse than you, you will get a bigger slice of the zero sum pie.
Imagine if every tank in the game got a literal Godzilla nuclear laser beam. The game would be less fun, but not any harder or easier to win. Each match would be decided by who aims fastest after loading in toward enemy spawn and godzilla beams them first, which you’d succeed at on average 50% of the time, just like you succeed now 50% of the time. And the one tank that only got 0.2 seconds of laser beam instead of 5s would be the worst tank in the game (least buff = nerf)
Similarly, if all tanks had no weapons at all, the game would be decided by who could sumo-wrestle enemies off of cap points. Not very fun, but still 50% win rate and not any harder or easier than now… and the tank that still got to keep a French tier 1 interwar naval gun on their tank would be the most OP tank in the game (least nerf = buff)
Tanks in WT don’t always die to one shot but at least they can. That is what Gamers seem to like about WT and hate about WoT if you read about it.
Gaijin don’t or should not have the access to exactly what modern Armours are made or where and how they are placed on the vehicles so if you hate how Russian tanks are now or how badly modeled the Chally 2 or latest Abrams is then you will hate them more when this is implemented.
We already have a form of Armour degradation; I see it on the training range. Without access to top secret documents, that seems to me to be as good as its going to get otherwise you will have a thousand armchair generals saying how Gaijin got the new physics wrong.
I can just see the player base making yet another rod for their own backs over this one. Another bad addition to the game to sit alongside all the other one that the player base demanded and endless posts about how Gaijin haven’t modeled the physics correctly in an area shrouded in secrecy in reality.
People gonna hate real life too I guess
Real life does come as a shock to War Thunder players, True, which is why they are continually asking for things and can’t handle it when Gaijin gives it to them.
No.
Anti-Air guns like the Falcon and Gepard are already insane against enemy armor. They don’t need to shred your tank’s integrity.
