You grew as a player.
Just as my Begleit stats are not relevant cause they were a year before I bought and played 2S38.
And I used what worked with 2S38 to increase my performance in Begleit by 0.1KDR in a day.
My primary job as a light tank is to scout, secondary is to shoot what I have an angle on.
HSTVL does the first portion better than all others, and the secondary portion it does better than a 2S38, and slightly better than VCC-80/60’s gun and reload.
The quotient of KDR is important, as that is evidence of a tank over-performing.
Such as the most OP tank at 4.3:
You check any other case-mate I’ve played ant it will not even be 2.4:1 KDR, let alone the 3.1:1 Jadgpanzer IV is.
The performance comparison matters when people lack the ability to do cross analysis.
Such as people forgetting that HSTVL is the fastest tank in the game that isn’t a casemate.
Yeah, I know. I was indeed only referring to the turret.
It should come to GER first, only NL second if they actually will buy it, but there have been some cutbacks, as they might be looking into the 120mm instead, either from CMI or Rheinmetall.
Irregardless, the fact remains that HSTV-L’s objective technical capabilities are underperforming. I care not whether it suffers or it’s OP, or whether it’s 10.3 or 13.3; the only fact is- it is mismodelled and nothing should be mismodelled, intentionally or not.
