Like I said before my post was censored:
1.) Is gaijin aware that out of a total of 1,347 Tiger I produced, only 390 were equipped with the drum cupola? So why is it that this vehicle pack contains two Tigers with the early, rare, nerfed cupola, conveniently with no fliegerbeschussgerät AAA weapon? Coincidental nerf? About 70% of Tiger I produced were equipped with the definitive “late” cupola with MG weapon, which was introduced in July 1943:
2.) Is gaijin aware that out of a total of 1,347 Tiger I produced, only 250 were equipped with the HL 210 engine? Since your 3D model features the nebelwurfgerät, feifel air filters, & drum cupola, this means that your models are examples of early Tiger I with HL 210 engines. Convenient horsepower nerf? About 81% of Tiger I produced were equipped with the definitive “late” HL 230 engine, which was introduced in May 1943:
3.) I am not going to mention changes such as ones to the escape hatches, pistol ports, headlights, zimmerit, steel roadwheels, turret ring protection, & the nahverteidigungswaffe which you people deliberately omitted from your early Tiger I pack, but to blatantly leave out the prevalent improvements such as the common cupola with AAA weapon, the common engine, the thickened turret roof, & the more powerful optic (5x T.Z.F. 9c) mounted in a thicker gun mantlet…This is just flagrant bias on your (gaijin’s) part, providing the average unsuspecting player with an inferior “new vehicle” in an early, rare, uncommon, weaker armored, outdated configuration that is completely out of place for late war events/scenarios/maps & uptierings, all while suckering money from said unsuspecting player
Too bad the early mantlet, early cupola, early engine, early nebelwurfgerät, early air filters, & whatever else reveal otherwise:
Gaijin, are you even aware that there is a Tiger I E in your game? Why didn’t you make a vehicle pack using that model? You seriously went out of your way to depict a pair of early configured Tiger I while at the same time inexplicably claiming that they ‘incorporate aesthetic elements inspired by each theater’, which they do not:
After making this statement, you then proceeded to depict your models with an incorrect cupola, no AAA MG, incorrect engine, incorrect optic, weaker mantlet, etc. The 3D models that you copy/pasted are circa early 1943 & lack such aesthetic elements since they have none of the mainstream & common improvements, advantages, refinements, or upgrades over the current Tiger H1 & ␠Tiger already available in this game, yet you fully expect people to relinquish money for a vehicle pack featuring early Tiger I representations with inferior characteristics compared to the game’s free Tiger I E? No. This is a scam. You people either have no attention to detail, no clue of what you are doing with regards to (Tiger I) tanks, or this is nothing more than a predatory cash grab scam intended to deprive unknowing people (children) from their (parents) money during Christmas time.
What you should have done is something unique instead of this lazy scam attempt, such as a Tiger I with functional vorpanzer, a Tiger I with functional fording equipment, a Tiger I with functional minenabwurfvorrichtung, a Tiger I with a MG 42 fliegerbeschussgerät, a Tiger I with an 88 mm KwK 43 L/71, a Panzerbefehlswagen Tiger I (Sd. Kfz. 267 or 268), Otto Carius’ personal Tiger I, or a much more mainstream example of a Tiger I as pictured here:
4.) Seeing that the Ostwind II is also included in this pack, does this mean that it will finally receive its missing APCR or are you hoping that people will still purchase this despite the missing round types? Furthermore, a properly corrected Zerstörer 45 or the reintroduction of the Flakpanzer 341 would have made a better choice to include in this pack
