Let us disable enemy decorators and bushes

Since some time you can shoot the bushes of with a short MG fire burst, the discussion about remove them entirely is stupid…

Imagine, they have still decorative value.

Hiding your vehicle from the enemy by completely hiding the outline is P2W.

And even if every player somehow ascended themself to a god like player by just playing enough, that doesn’t change the fact that it gives you an advantage against most of the playerbase.

Therefore this argument has literally no value.

„Hey just play the game for 1000 hours straight until you memorized every vehicle and their weakspot out of 100 different vehicles you can face every match.“

Amazing.

It takes very little time and effort to learn weakspots

Short MG burst of like a few dozen bullets vs a target you don’t see in the 1st place.
But OK, you manage to spot something (you are already 2s behind the schedule because it takes A LOT more effort and can’t be done anywhere as fast), you start firing MG to see what it is.
You have to aim way up because of bullet ballistics. Before you land these 30-50 or whatever bullets to 1 bush from a few hundred meters away, the enemy has precisely aimed and killed you.
Wow, what a great solution to a problem!

There’s a difference between seeing a tank and shooting it and seeing a tank, giving your position away by machine gunning bushes away and then firing at it once you recognized the type and where to shoot.

Also not every vehicle does have an MG so again a completely worthless argument.

Not to mention that you might not even recognize the vehicle fast enough to do anything in the first place.

Thats nonsense.

There are probably a thousand tanks going through the tanks, each having different armor values and penetration performance, firing nuke APHE or solid shot that requires aiming for a gunner to just be safe.

Not only do you have the knowledge about weakspots but also recognize vehicles covered in bushes.

Skill issue than, and as someone mentioned before, you can get them also for Warbonds, I’ll get my third bush from there this year this BP…

And then imagine - you fire APHE (lets not even start about playing Brits here) at turret, turns out it’s Breda or Su-100P or M55 , shell hits relatively high, fails to fuse, flies away and hits some oil refinery in Syberia, which causes an employee to forget to properly stub out his cigarette, it smoulders among something flammable and eventually place burns to the ground, all the while you’re dealing next to no damage to the intended target, which fires back, gg.
It’s generally hilarious, especially in a game where ASU-57 can stop 75mm APHEBC at 900m/s fired from 70m away with its 15mm mantlet the size of a bucket, while receiving 0 damage to the cannon (luckily shell exploded and fragments killed the driver and engine, MGs did the rest), just like T-34 with 45mm turret front can stop 105mm shell with 200+ penetration from Dicker Max because you shot some mystical edge between 2 parts made out of Stalin’s mustache fiber. So every goddamn pixel counts.

you can clearly see it, so what

see what? the barrel? good luck hitting that

you will get a Hit 20💡, or you won’t even hit that if that tank is at a distance

i thought it was a “skill issue” if you can’t identify a bushed up tank, no? you clearly can’t identify that tank, instead opting to answer with copout non-answer
