I see in new us tech tree the m1a1 hc is under m60 line is there any reason put it there?
Seemingly to force you to grind more.
Now you can get rank VI by purchasing 5 vehicles, T32, M103, M163, T95 and M50 for example, so you can avoid the M46 and M48 line.
Then to get rank VII you need 4 vehicles, so you can continue with T95E1, MBT, M1 Abrams and M60A2.
From there you get the M1A1 to M1A2 SEP.
With this change you’ll need to get the M46, M47, M60, M60A1, M60A3 just to get the M1A1 HC.
They do the same thing with China.
Seems this is their way to make it seem on paper as if a lot things are reduced in RP, but indirectly making you grind a ton of extra vehicles that negates most of that progress if you want to get top tier lineups.
They also move the M3A3, M1 Abrams and LAV-AD to a higher rank which will add another 300-400k RP which is the equivalent of an extra top tier vehicle.
In return the SEP and IPM1 are in a folder, but the gains from that are negated.

Don’t see any correlation.

having more than one line thats viable to grind is not a bad thing… before the USA only had one real line you wanted to grind and it was the singular abrams line. I’d like them to separate shit like this in the future more in this way so you have more options and less railroaded paths of research.
Also, let’s not pretend the HC is needed for any lineup. It’s a very underwhelming vehicle and isn’t required or even optimal to have IN your lineup at top tier.

The amount of folders added makes this argument moot.
You don’t see any correlation between going from grinding one tree to having to grind two trees?
And maybe the HC isn’t needed, they do the same thing with China where there are only 2 top tier vehicles and they will put them in different trees, adding hundreds of thousands of RP to the grind, I think that’s a problem when the update is supposed to reduce it.

You don’t have to grind the M1A1 HC. It is a very optional vehicle. And again, you SHOULD be grinding more than one tree regardless AND splitting up the massive line of abrams gives you MORE options on what to get. Right now you are railroaded through the 15 of them. Same thing with Challengers.
Why should I? I can make that decision if I want to, but by forcing my hand by splitting up potentially important vehicles that make me grind an entire extra line that’s not RP reduction.
Why should I?
because its what good players do, if you want to play poorly that’s your choice
but by forcing my hand by splitting up potentially important vehicles that make me grind an entire extra line that’s not RP reduction.
The game has always since it was conceptualized had vehicles in different lines that you were required to get to make lineups.
If they want people to grind all the lines they should make it possible to do so, no **** that no one is going to grind out trees for ******** fun and add an extra 2 million RP to their grind.
Oh what’s that? No one is grinding these trees? Could there be a problem?
No… we’re never wrong, it’s the player that’s wrong, it’s always the player that’s wrong.
We’ll just force them to grind it and play the game we want them to play it.
