Germany Has Been Left Behind – Leopard Armor, Missing 2A8 and the Decline of German Players

gajins lazy,
its easier for them to just do a 2a8NO and german 2a8,
for the future french 2a8,
It just doesnt feel like gajin to choose the one cariant that istn useable anywhere else.
Specialy when sweden had no alternative (until 2 months ago, which is way to early for planning), and already is getting screwed with heli options and has no APS alternatives either

while we’re at it…why is THIS still at thing???

WHOOOO CAREESSSSSSSSS. Genuinely who cares about Sweden they have had the best MBTs for years. They can live without a new one for awhile

who cares?

Gajin that wants to make money of the swedish playerbase.
Do you think they care about sweden having 3 armored mbts`?
Would they germany would already haved received some as well

Looks like everyone has realized that Germany is being forgotten (except Gaijin)

stop overdramatising,
We got a tech tree boxer and are definitly at the very least getting a new heli

I don’t know about forgotten, but underutilized? Absolutely

There’s really no reason for Germany not to have another line up or two between 10.7 and 12.7

And from a new content perspective Germany’s still coming out head and shoulders above some other trees, though a lot has been paywalled

Yet they added the M1A2 trophy in the most recent update.

There is no APS abrams that can be added to other nations.
Heck strictly speaken there is no service aps abrams, they were all prototypes werent they?
And Uk did in fact get a copy paste abrams as well with the sepv3.

The 2a8 can be added to multiple nations. the aps abrams cant, as simple

I have yet to see solid proof to begin with that their current intention is to give every possible nation a top tier APS tank.

Hell there were just as much or even more non APS top tier MBTs than APS ones added last update.

never said its there plan,
just the most likely step, and sweden is already screwed with helis.
they wanna make their money somehow

and still stands at the end of the day, its not that big of a change

Most likely step means there is at least some form of evidence on which that prediction is made no?

its not like sweden had anything else to add mbt wise until very recently which might have fallen out of there plans.

I would say we will see this week maybe the week after in the trailer
But looking back at the leo 2a7V, i wouldnt even bet on gajin having it as important to be ready for it.
If its even coming this aptch to beginn with and not later this year.

new heli for germany
Puma DM rework that should make it marketable for gajin?
And a new leo for germany?
That would sound to good to be true

Gaijin already has a well practiced way of handling this, they just simply don’t add anything whether there are options or not.

I mean challenger 3 td as a quick example

Sweden already has three fully armored Leopard derivatives with top tier ammo (the never had). Why would they need something added? They get their new renamed STRV=7A8 when its ready. Why any foreign nation additions for the techntree which already is fully stacked with Leopards from 3 nations.

Why would this matter to gajin?
They wanna make money and need additions for that

Germany really needs some good additions next update to reverse the US+USSR trend
Ger had 21% of games in 12.7 in May
Then it dropped to 16% in June

Spoiler

And now it was 13% in July

Spoiler

What I learned from this graph is that Germany still is the 3rd most popular

Yes that is correct and very much not surprising.
