It doesn’t there are plenty of vehicles that can block poor placed shots like 122s, 2A7V, every T tank with K5/Relikt and on every tier you have few examples. And I don’t talk only about top tier because every MBT can be penetrated frontally but you have tanks like Maus, E100 and T28 and try to penetrate them frontally in a stock M46 for example. Upgraded shells sometimes are the only gimmick that makes vehicles good and worth grinding and I would be possed off of someone would limit it out.
This would be a good idea. Limited to say 5 rounds or so it would not be unbalancing at all. Especially since the BR is based on the performance for the fully developed vehicles. My opinion only and I really don’t play top tier.
Yes, and that was so much fun they decided to give higher tier tanks an APFSDS round stock because people were ready with the torches and pitchforks.
I’ve done the stock HEAT-FS grind. It is not fun, it is not in any way, shape, or form, the type of ammo I want to be using against targets that are specifically armored (ERA, etc.) against chemical rounds. It would just not be any fun.
But sure, let’s ruin it for everyone because you can’t handle not being an omgwtfpwnuberslaughterlord.
Wouldn’t it be nicer and more realistic to give the tanks the bullets they actually used and change the Br about it?
T-54(1949) using 1955 bullets.
Magach 3 ERA from 1982 using 1970 bullets.
The problem is not the quantity, the problem is the Br of the tank and the shameful damage pattern of all the bullets.
