And you want worse shells, because?
Yes make it so my tank can use 5 of the rounds that it used then is stuck using a round that it never used
Also this would cause nations that don’t have stock heat to dominate
Ahem, Skill Issue
That is all.
Yeah, you have to learn to not rely on armor and Hold W to rush. You have to learn positioning and when to back off. Dying from a round like that is often because you put yourself in a bad situation. It takes more skill for you to survive against strong rounds than against weak rounds.
I want better gameplay experience.
Horrible idea. You unlock something, you should be able to use it. In top tier, people dont use heatfs because heatfs cant engage most targets.
This sort of sounds like you are trying to go the WoT route with premium ammo. Having the good ammo limited to “provide better gameplay”

And not being able to kill things is a better experience?

It would work both ways. And stock ammo isnt that trash, it can still kill things.
It’s stock ammo because it’s bad, so you get frustrated and give them money to get ammo that works, it’s the typical greedy game design trope where you intentionally make the game worse to try and earn money by selling the solution to a problem that should not exist.

What i predict from this is that people would just only take 5 rounds of good ammo, use them, then either camp a cap or just J-out.

No, this would benefit France, Germany, Sweden, and America most.
ERA is one time protection. Composite is permanent.
It’s still a bad idea.
Also nothing greedy about giving us good-enough ammo.
Yeah, I’m sure they went out of their way to take out APFSDS and put it in tier 3 and 4 modules and replace it with heatfs because it improves the game despite everyone telling them not to do it.
As a WWII German main I approve this idea… :D
X to doubt
Rank 1 mod.*
Even stuff like Bhishma have their only APFSDS round as rank 1.
Merkava Mk3 is the only high MBTs without APFSDS in rank 1.
Oh yeah, nowadays, things like the M735 right? Yeah they nerfed those as well.
Also if you’re playing a minor nation, no such luck.
M735 still pens just fine despite its change.
And again, Israel’s the only one with Merkava Mk3.
Every other tech tree has AFPSDS in rank 1.
Italy & Israel even get ammo better than 3BM60 as their stock ammo for rank 8.
Challengers First APFDS is stock
Yeah, pens about as well as APFSDS from decades prior, 350mm to 290mm is not a minor change, meanwhile Russia still gets their 400mm+ APFSDS at rank 1 and their thermals and laser rangefinders are also unlocked faster than in NATO vehicles, a 2A4 has a longer module grind than a T-90M.
lolwat?
Soviet thermals are at rank 4 for T-80s.
All tech trees have 400+ mil pen ammo at rank 1/stock.
