Panzerhaubitze 2000

@Smin1080p_WT so quick question that i have related to balancing mechanism, why is the reload rate instead of the Battle Rating being used as a primary balancing mechanism? Surely the primary function of the BR system is to provide balance, which is why things move up and down depending on their performance or capability.
Can you therefore provide a bit more information as to why the developers or just people resposible for balance decided to ignore the primary way of providing balance and instead selected a roundabout way of nerfing reload speed from realistic 6 seconds to the current 10 seconds, again instead of moving the vehicle higher up in Battle Rating?

I would like to add a question :

Are the missing ammo and spall liner also a balancing decision or are they still in development since they were actually accepted?

Kinda feels like the live server has become the devserver

I think im just gonna pretend the pzh2000 doesnt exist ingame at this point, cuz what those mouth breathers at gaijin added to the game definitly isnt a PzH2000 in any way but visuals.

I hope nobody was stupid enough to waste money on the premium.

Furthermore the 10s reload balance discussion is realy useless either way when other spgs with the same capabilities have a reload of 7.5s and potentialy better ammo

they should buff the fire rate of the panzerhaubitze 2000

10 rounds/min

source : KNDS

We have the next patch datamined

Ready rack of 2 with 5 sec reload.
So 3 shoots in 10s. After those gonna need 10s per shell if i understand it right.
Its way better now

finally yes we are

3 rounds in 10 secs (fire, 5 secs, fire, 5 secs, fire) and then 7.5 secs (continuous fire). and if u wanna wait a bit for RR to replenish, i think it takes 5 seconds to start and 5 secs per shell, so first 3 rounds, retreat, wait 22.5 seconds for another 3 round/10sec burst.
not bad at all

Right, I’m pleasently surprised Gaijin listened in this matter.
It still lacks spall liners and its own shells for example (though I’d personally want to keep something low velocity for indirect fire), but its a very good start to have the reload fixed

Imagine if we get the drone with it…

I always thought about thats as well.
But then i remembered thats spgs favourite meal is gonna be spaas…
And i am not sure we want spaas to be taken out without any counters

True… if we learnt anything from the “other tank game” its that SPGs are kinda OP with eagle eye view.


Its live live

Just like in MWT, you start an drone,the Arty gets in Orbital strike mode, the drone has an cycle in which the Rounds land somewhere…
Would be an nice feature and not too broken :)))))
