I have a questions for the community as well as the developers. When it comes to the Leopard 2 Main Battle Tanks why is it that they have become the Band-Aid for everyone? Seriously why does every tech tree receive some variant of the Leo in order to “balance” their tech trees? What is the point of Grinding a specific nation only for Gaijin to add a specific countries vehicles to everyone else? There’s no reason to play Germany at this point. There’s nothing unique about them anymore, no good CAS, sub par SPAA, Sub Par Helis. And now everyone else is getting the German top tier vehicles. It’s actually sad. On top of all that now the leopards are getting the biggest gun depression nerf ever and for what reason?? IRL Leopard 2 can in fact lay its gun barrel ON its rear deck! IRL Leopard 2A5-7+ can fire DM73 APFSDS. IRL Leopard 2 Ammunition has propellant that is specifically designed not to explode in the event of a catastrophic fire or penetration. The list goes on and on! If you are trying to be “realistic “ then why nerf Leopard 2? And if you’re trying to create a unique experience for each tech tree then why do you give everyone Leopard 2? It’s not fair and it’s definitely not accurate!
It’s easy and costs Gaijin nothing. Why model new vehicles/fix existing ones when you can press a few buttons and “fix” an issue. It’s the same reason why there is so much copy and paste.
The rest of the nation’s unique vehicles and lineups.
Only if you care only about top tier, which you really shouldn’t be doing.
The nerf is indeed realistic, you aren’t able to depress the gun over the rear sides if you have the stabilizer enabled. What Gaijin should do is to allow you to depress if you disabled the stabilzier.
Also I am and have always been a top tier player. That’s why I started playing war thunder to begin with
