Leo 2A5 is one of the best
Really let’s put it in a comparison
With any Nato tank pick a one
Ariete
I like playing the Ariete’s, but the Leopards are definitely better
If you compare it to 2a7 it feels like a why spawn, and if you dont play other nations at top tier its hard to realize how good your 3rd/4th spawn 12.0 really is (used to be me).
That’s just the consequence of having so many good 12.0’s in top tier Germany. That even something as great as the 2A5 becomes a 4th spawn.
Lowe power to weight
Much better reverse speed
Much better thermals
Laser warning reserver
Better reload speed
Both could be penetrated from the front by everyday at top tier only that the Leo 2 have some armor in the turret front in change of the other advantages of the ariete
Franc have the exact same tank 4 time’s without any sacrifice
The main point is that gun depression nerf isn’t necessary and should be removed
Really, the only meaningful thing there is the laser warning and the reload. Great to have, but not overall better than the versatility of the 2A5…man, why are there people who seriously think the 2A5 is worse than the Ariete…
Because it is
Thermals make a big difference in sniping far people to see the weak spots
Thermal res makes almost zero practical difference.
There’s diminishing returns to actual practical benefit. Going from no thermals to gen 1 is a massive benefit, gen 1 to 2 is pretty tiny, and going from gen 2 to gen 3 is completely pointless.
Don’t forget the terrut basket and other shit
Compined with the depression I would trade a2a5 with the ariete
Still Lost to the worst nato tank what if I compare it to other ones
Really gen one thermals is so trash not using it is better
Everyones getting turret baskets.
Nope, Gen 1 is fantastic.
which begs the question why they didnt roll them out when the work was done for everyone
There’s hundreds of tanks ingame, would take years
Return us to the main point no one of the devs said that its for balance reason and it’s annoying thing as the images above
160 degree blind spot is so fucking annoying
Getting killed because of it is so lame
Any limitation is annoying. The skill is learning to play around the limitations
ok but theres a lot less top tier tanks that should also get them so why not add all top tier baskets at the same time
