They were also planning on nerfing the shells so that rather than being set to IRL specs, it was set to their own calculator, which would have reduced its short range pen by quite a bit, iirc and then finally the fact they are at 8.0, just 0.3 BR lower than the Warrior Milan with stabilizer, TVD and MILANs and with the same gun
Yeah that would have been bad, the rarden is good, the issue is the fox and the weaker scim punish people who dont pay attention, there is a reason it skyrocketed the fox to the moon. Ironically the fox still doesnt have its true top speed of 65mph, even though all my other bug reports for it at launch were implimented
Yeah, Gaijin has a wierd adversion to Britain and its IFV/CRVTs.

shame really, one of these days if i see a fox at a show i will just get them to spin the turret around full wack and we can time it. But in regards to this Badger I’m more dissapointed, and might have to make a few serious bug reports to correct it when it is on the dev server, as if i were to guess they have used that brochure for the rof value, when they was the early draft design and used a different gun.
Yeah, will be needed and yeah, its a shame. Especially as people seem really excited for whats going to be one of the weakest IFVs in the game even at a sensible BR but is probably going to be stupidly over BRed on top of that.
And there will be people that will say that Britain has no alternative and requires south africa for any IFV options
I am actually trying to think of a weaker ifv, liteterally all the 25 and 30mm wheelie boys have like 200 rpm, this thing is worse by a big metric. I will hazard a guess its gonna be 9.7 at a minimum.
Yeah, at least it will make the Desert Warrior look good now :D
9.7 was my guess initially based upon ICV in Japan, but now, I think 9.3 would be pushing it, though we do have 9.3s, so would be usable. But definetly not “top tier” or “end of line” worthy

and we both know that thing is pretty mid and about 4 years late
Britain? IFV? On-time?
Never gunna happen
Wait a minute, this dev blog says its end of the line at rank VI for the light tank line, how is that gonna work is the desert warrior is rank VII
Yeah, no idea. and I think its going in line 5 as well.
So its wierd the wording they’ve used, it makes no sense how it will be top tier and end of line when it will be neither of those things
Aye, now i am more confused, as it literally cant be rank VI and end of the line, all the brit lines terminate at the lowest at rank VII
Yep, and even if it were rank VII not VI, it would have to be 10.3 or higher for what is going to be a below average 9.7 or 9.3.
This entire dev thread needs a reword I think

@Smin1080p_WT Could we please get some clarification? The Badger can’t be both rank VI and end of the line for a British tree, as all of them terminate at rank VII at a minimum.

What even is the british light tank line btw, literally there are light tanks in every line XD.
I presume its the SA line due to the weight of them there, but i can be sure.
Yeah, Id assume so too, though gaijin really made a right old mess of our tree and underestimated how many native options they could have added
I know that too well, there is a reason i am like 1/3 of the ground suggestions XD
Yep, you need to make a ground version of this
Maybe one day, i currently have 21 aircraft suggestions for the brits pending, so i am never at rest it seems
