Layering and the addition of SLERA…
Well, it’s better than nothing… It’s probably not quite what we dreamed of, but we need to take a solid step forward

I just want chains modeled on the back of the turret at this point bro. It’s starting to feel like even that’s too much to ask for. Shouldn’t be hard at all for gaijin to take the chains modeled on the namers and just upsize and copy/paste them to it. If we can’t get armor buff at this point currently can we just add some missing characteristics?
Nearly every merkava has these chains and none are modeled at all. Yet they put a lot in for t90m’s to have full physics and everything for theirs. I’d love for them to take just a little time to do this since we have an update that revolves around the TT a little bit with the addition of Greek sub tree.

“We cant buff the armor because we don’t have sources that tell us exact values, so here have leopards with better armor with values we made up based on nothing”…

And yet they add very recent T-series with brand new and perfectly functioning APS despite lack of modern research history amid heavy sanctions. New improved T80 was leaked recently, even in current state of toptier with constant Russia ponding there’s somehow always time for another recent Russian development with only propaganda news channels for source but snail forbid it’ll be something not red, in that case please provide a written letter from John Abrams himself, them inferior dirty capitalist couldn’t’ve went past early cold war minimal standard.

Oh and btw with recent TOS you can’t collectively protest, as a fellow Russian i recognize our signature “people first” laws. Pay us fortune, eat dirt, and don’t dare to complain or you’ll get personal sanctions. Gaijin doesn’t deserve this game.

I feel like the armor of the Merkava 4 is really like paper, which doesn’t really match its 65-ton weight, I don’t get it. …

Probably because it modeled as such in game. Devs decided to treat it as if it’s just spaced armor from composites when it has almost the same thickness as Abrams but turret round. Personally i wouldn’t’ve complained about it if the turret was modeled properly and hull left to be thin, but even that is not in game. Also due to that, by proxy, Namers are crap due to having Merkava hulls, i guess it’s only when Russians use tank hulls for IFVs that they get permission to have armor.

30 tons of air in that hull according to Gaijin, clueless
Every day i get reminded of it.
Thanks for that free 'tali Gaijin!

Don’t you know? Air has weight.
The Namer just somehow increases the weight of the air inside of it’s massive hollow body.

I’m really hoping this update will at least give some chains modeled to the back of the merks turret considering this update will have some focus on the TT. Please gaijin just put some kinda effort of modeling anything correctly on Israel TT. We got namer 65 tons of air. But bmpt can be 10.3 with ridiculous amounts of protection and ammo box. (yes I know it’s changed to 11.0 bracket but it was introduced In 10.0 with very little effort to change it for a while) merk armor buff report has been accepted for years now. Still no updates as to whether or not it will be implemented. Only get vague answers of still being considered and most recent response was “no news on that at this time” this is just turning into another “let’s not fix problems by addressing it” rather it’s “best I can do is another leopard” now I don’t mind Greek sub tree, I welcome it, but when we add things to ignore things I’d rather not add it.

Even though it sounds kinda mean, i accept this shell. Win rate will go up a lot, enemy team will be left with no spaags, while my magaches and merkavas will sit in safe place. Do you have any source which would say that magaches or merkavas used this kind of shells at all?
I think we might’ve lost the war. Even though dev server and changes are not yet in effect i doubt said changes involve any changes for Merkava’s armor or Israel in general with that Leopard variant addition, just like it is with Japan, Italy and France. Too bad, evil wins again.

Forwarded to the developers as a suggestion for their disregard.

Really starting to feel that way. Been years of waiting for the report to be implemented and yet we still haven’t seen anything. But hey they sure did need to buff relikt once again and add more to their blessed t-90m.
Wish the merks or namers would get this amount of love to their armor modeling.

According to a moderator, the main Report has been “connected to internal reports to track progress(?)” Well this was said 3 years ago, and where’s the progress? it’s almost 4 at this point. I just can’t withstand this absolute radio silence that gaijin is giving us, the developers don’t give a single update on it, not a single answer, no dev blog or community post to talk about it!
In the meanwhile they added more “Merkava” based tanks Like the Namer’s and guess what? Full of issues too, they added the Eitan, Full of issues as well, like please Gaijin do something!
This 1 moderator is all we got for an answer for 4 years.
It literally feels like the bug reporting community is pointless, since things just aren’t gonna get fixed, they’re just ignored.

Asked @Smin1080p_WT
Only got responses of “still being considered” and “no news currently” as you’ve said it’s been nearly 4 years now. We will never see the report come to the light of day. Gaijin fixed it with leopards. They don’t care

Fr though @Smin1080p_WT what progress has been made since nearly 4 years ago of asking about this other than getting the same response over and over again. “Still under consideration” just give us some kind of straightforward answer. Do the devs even care to implement the report?? Been nothing but radio silence
