Commieboo lmao and not only that if they ever want to get a vehicle buffed all they have to do is show a picture of Putin pointing to something. We have to do a full report just for them to say accepted… Then never fix it.

Just imagine if gaijin gave any other nation the same favouritism as the soviet tree. Britain wouldnt suck from 8.7 up

If only I wasn’t also in an unstabilized mostly glass light tank when I meet autocannon lights.

Look at US air, and you’ll see what happens when a tree gets more favouritism lmao

It would be top 3 IMO maybe 4. Its very frustrating to have full documented proof of things being wrong in the game and have them ignore it when they legit changed the F-15 in like an afternoon.

At least it’s 50/50. Other than the small size, the Scimitar has no detection advantage as it doesn’t even have its historical NVD right now.

NVD is useless at it’s BR anyway.

I just think that autocannon only lights should not have been added as light tanks at and around 7.X.

i only use my rarden tanks at 9.0 and up lol

British 8.7 is actually great, my stats in the Chieftain Mk.5 and Vickers Mk.11 are WELL above my average, worst thing is the relatively slow reload of the chieftain, If it got Regenerative steering it would be many times better

Not to mention you can back it up with things like the Falcon, Vickers (1&3) and ZA-35, and the Olifant which as a good gun for its BR, and with the Scimitar F.1 which has 4 bullpups which used right are amazing (I can’t bloody use it for the life of me)

He is the same person who started the “Fox is still overpowered” thread, no hate to him, but his arguments have been debunked many times in that thread

I dont even know why hes trying it again here on a vehicle which is significantly less strong at 7.7

Yes probably a Russian prem player who doesn’t like anything countering him.

the chieftain APDS is very good but its still far weaker than unrestricted documents say, the chieftain in real life was able to pen what it can in war thunder from 0m at 1km

I agree this kind of high mobility 1970s-80s autocannon-armed IFV/LT causes absolute havoc among 6.7 heavies. Perhaps decompression is required to space them further out from the Tiger 2 crowd.

Is it really a large issue when the counterplay is literally just using your brain and not letting them flank you?

It’s not the heavies that have issue with them, it’s the light tanks.

It’s impossible to play a 7.X-8.3 light tank without running into one, and they will just shred you before you can react.

@Kobes-Kamov They’re incredibly easy to deal with in heavies and armoured medums because they can’t really do anything to you.

I mean i’ve never had an issue in the BTR or Fox/Scimitar with heavy tanks, if you meet one just avoid it

Theres tons of light/medium vehicles you can go kill instead.

The Fox/Scimitar have enough pen to kill almost all heavies if you flank them, apart from stuff like the Maus and IS4 but theyre slow af. Scout them and move on, if you can’t kill them then track and barrel them and wait for a teammate.

Look I get killed when I don’t expect it often enough but it’s pretty clear there are people at 6.7 with some real issues.

what do you mean by that
