new mantlet can’t even stop 3bm60 at any place, such a shame

All of these are in Enlisted, so it makes sense that they’re being visually improved now that that game has controllable turrets
We might see more aircraft gunner positions improved along these lines while the mechanic is expanded there.

I would look forward to missile armed ship over battleships, but big 7 is also a way to bring hype. Man i just really want to play Chinese naval.

its such a blatantly rushed out patch that theyve literally not even updated the visual model of the CR3 properly lol, nevermind the damage models for the challenger 2s new armour remodel, or the M1A2 SEPs ERA.

In fact, now Challenger 3 TD’s DAMAGE model is the same as the old Challenger 2s…
It used to be just the X-Ray vision; now it’s the actual damage model too. Watch:
Challenger 3 TD’s cheeks are 60mm weaker than the new Challenger 2’s because it has their old model for whatever reason now…
Even though you can see they are significantly more angled in 3TD, which was correct prior to this update (used to be 780mm KE, now it’s 710).

Also, Leclerc AZUR’s armor is still a mess.
I thought they were working on Leclerc’s armor on the Dev Server, but turns out it was just… whatever this is, xD.
Also Leclerc’s UFP is still underperforming by nearly 50% even according to the very ingame model.
And the apparent Merkava armor rework? False alarm, too. They still can be lolpenned by 3BM42, even on the cheeks.

Well at the absolute least the GR.7 MAWS (which while modeled entirely incorrectly) is here.

Also Leclerc’s glacis can now be penned by 3BM60, even when it suppossedly shouldn’t, unless it’s an armor preview issue. Used to provide around 575mm KE, now it provides 555; and can be penned by shells that theorically don’t have enough power at certain angles… same happens to Challenger 2/3’s hull, as well.
Hopefully this is just an armor viewer issue, though.
Also, Leopard 2A7V still has worse armor than Strv 122s and that the early Leopard 2A5 prototypes from the 1990s.
Sorry for the sudden spam, I am just a bit disappointed because I somehow expected this update to fix all/most of the MBT-related issues and… it really didn’t, it got even worse in some ways, in fact, lmao.
At least Leclerc finally got its 5 second reload and a new sound, I guess…

Incredibly happy to see that all the Hungarian aircraft that got additional camouflages had some that could be unlocked! Also, they are very pretty!

Missed opportunity to set up a new tree for next patch and research bonus
Oh well

We likely already know the main theme of the next update anyway, so I get why a new tree likely wouldn’t happen.
Unless you want your new tree addition overshadowed by other additions being the main focus of the update, Italy style.
i would’nt mind a new tree like a coastal still lacking for a certain nation even if the main focus is fox3 x)))

It’s not really a big deal to me, but generally speaking I get what you’re saying.
Fox-3 seems likely next update but not really 100% certain, I figured they’d delayed the research bonuses because they hadn’t finished the tree quite yet.
they already stated that ARH missiles are coming in the second update of 2024 so I dont see them not coming
I don’t think the changes are finished yet. I might be wrong but I’m pretty sure it was said they arent tied to the update.
Hopefully they just modelled the “nerfs” before they model the buff’s.
If not CR.2 is just going to end up going down which is somewhat of a win.
