yes but its “unrealistic” then
basket shouldnt be mark as traverse in the first place
it should act like a spall liner
thats the sole reason why its made of thin aluminum sheet that can deal with shrapnel
And WT is known to have absolutely zero unrealistic things.

yes but thats not the reason to refusing changing something that is terribly baked
you cant have a recipe on how to bake and gave up mid way and let it burn
It was intended as a nerf to vehicles that could just shrug off center mass side shots like it’s nothing.

i mean ik its a nerf either way but the way they do it is just sadistic
If something is unrealistically modeled, by gaijin’s OWN standards, it should be changed to be realistically modeled if one can sufficiently prove it is incorrect.

Yes, and many, first of all, almost all shots not only disable the magazine but also the turret ring, that is, in addition to not being able to shoot, you cannot rotate the turret or reload, come on, the community cried and supported so much that they added this to Russian tanks and now that your Western tanks suffer from this, you come crying to the forum every single day?

also when u take out the abrams ammo the breech ammo that is secure and loaded somehow disappear forcing you to wait again for the gun to load
Turret baskets aren’t designed with sheeting for protection from shrapnel or spall, its to stop arms and legs from being ripped off as the turret slews.
turret basket like on the abrams are made of thin aluminum sheet which isnt exactly a spall liner, but they do stop a fair bit of shrapnel, instead Gaijin made it so it create more spall(i have a vid up there)
yes but what about Challenger

I see
So both create spall
Unrealistic things can be kept to improve playability and to impose balance if BR can’t be used.

such as
Just look how our sights can be damaged but we don’t lose any vision or quality of said vision.
Wouldn’t see me complaining if they did receive damage while in scope.
Yeah…
basic experience in a7, got shot in rear from very low ange. Enemy was about in 11 clock and me facing it . Shots in rear and disables engine. Awesome time to retaliate that shot. Oh wait nope, I wont. shrapnel miraculously damaged basket and since engine was out , I couldnt turn and use it as td…
So yeah it is just “fine” that you shoot leo in last 1/4 part of that tank, and take out engine and basket…
Why would you want that in game? Maybe in Sim, but that would make more people not want to play Sim
