Because the wait in between updates is short after the Summer update. November → December is 5 weeks ish to the latter update releasing. WIP blogs are a “we know you’re waiting for the next update, but here’s something we can share to quench the cope in the meantime” tool. We will literally blink and see Bob again in hangar in ~8-9 weeks or so.
EDIT: (But I wouldn’t completely rule out any WIP blogs, though. Gaijin is, as always, full of surprises)
Probably more for Aura, dummy thick front armor, Dozer Blade, Sturmtiger inspired Design etc. Maybe also because the enemy is expected to act mainly like a frontal attacking swarm.
If anything of that was true, fair, but it isn’t lol
They are just stupid designs, which could be seen as a gameplay design choice, IF tanks didn’t require at least two players to both move and shoot at the same time
I can get behind WH40K tank designs being impractical, a lot of them are inspired by WW2 designs after all and they don’t try to make “serious” vehicle designs anyways
