also…how? where did i say the leo is not better than vt-4? Firstly i havent played it so i cant judge from my own experience. Second the VT-4 is at 12.3 and not 12.7. Third, it seems to have way worse stats (Compared to the Leo2a7v, again different BR but whatever since you are so eager to compare them) so players seem to have a harder time playing it efficiently, so it seems is struggling vs tanks of other nations it is seeing at its BR (VT-4 underperforming) and the other tanks at its or around its BR are better than it and are overperforming. In direct comparison, yes from the stats we have access to it is not comparable to the uparmored leos (and the other top performers it can see) so either those need to go up or the VT-4 needs to go down or get buffs. The leo is better at every metric (not sure if thats actually true but yeah most im well aware of, so it has better stats? qed.)
You say that but theres always something missed
I mean the T64As armour was (is) completely wrong for the longest time and even now it has the armour protection of the irl T64B turret in game despite being the early turret iteration
this is some complex machinery that basically have no solid answer bc there are so many many variables
unless you get yourself a T64A and a ton of shells in pristine condition and start jotting down numbers we can basically only make well educated guesses based on the info we have
Like the 6 seconds we know could be possible but at the same time we know that there are variables left out when calculating the 6 seconds, this leads to me saying it should be like ~6.5 seconds based on the knowledge i have of the time to recoil the gun
t64a armor is t64a armor, we’re talking about the composites of a specific tank.
MZ is an autoloader use in every t64 and t80 variant with the 125mm. a change to the autoloader is far more likely to get documented than the armor composition of what was at the time the utmost cutting edge of tank armor.
I mean yeah probably bad example lol
It is 2am here but it took gaijin what 10 ish years to figure it out and on so so many occasions they have shown their research is either wrong or missing a lot
Issue is most of the time the devs refuse to accept they may be wrong
Purposely so they can give classified manuals to the Russian government or not we don’t know
Never works, but for some reason only works in test drive lol. And you should have seen people defending the terminator saying the puma has comparable armor. Insane.
Nah they actually put their R&D department into looking for the best way to make a nato tank worse
Spoiler
Leo 2 looking at the moon when sideways
Strv 122 roof composite being worse than rubber in effectiveness
Turret rings being a thing on the two most exported nato tanks that remove all enjoyment and ability to turn the turret
Blow out panels not working as blow out panels
Stingers
But don’t worry new things have been discovered to allow the T80s to reload faster and for the BMPTs to get external internal belts and for the pantsir to get the games first fancy radar stuff or the Buk they made up or the Kh 38 they partially made up
That, like a few of my comments, will probably be hidden
Gaijin do not like talk about protests essentially
You can voice your opinion to a degree but that’s as far as it’s tolerated
Honestly man I open my steam library and I see war thunder and then just open elite dangerous
Idk what to do on elite but I find it more enjoyable than war thunder
