The Dev Server is Opening with Major Update “Spearhead”! — 24.10.2025

This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.

I mean that is not any less realistic than watching the gunner of the tank you just shot only being slightly inconvenienced by the 120-125mm dart that just ripped their leg off, like how it is in WT.

This is beyond copium, this is just straight up hard drugs.

And that is coming from someone with cursed matchmaking.

Your matchmaking I nye on garauntee isnt as bad as mine!"!

To be fair, that’s why we have the first stage system, isn’t it?

Not saying these tanks need quicker reloads, but one of those three tanks has an awfully small first stage ready rack for some reason and I feel like it could use a little buff…

Spoiler

I’m talking about the CR2s tiny 5 round ready rack, if it wasn’t obvious

CR2s need two changes:

1: replenishment speed should be halved, as it’s currently twice as long as any other for whatever reason.
2: ammo sitting at the back should compute as ready rack as well.

Two of many needed changes, though the recent mobility buff will makea strong difference. I think more than anything else, the pig-headed refusal to implement the add-on armour packs properly irks me.

Speaking as a former CR2 crewman and trained loader;

  1. Yes the entirety of the projectiles above the turret ring are first stage.

  2. Yes we do train to use the vertical Armoured Charge Bins while the tank is on the move.

  3. Yes you do have to be quick and mind the turret monster. The tank is a killing machine, and it doesn’t care who bleeds for it…

I could feel Gaijin’s arse puckering when you mentioned you were a Chally 2 crewman…

shouldnt it get changed to “OPLOT-M” ?

The Oplot-P is a variant that was built according to Pakistans requirements.
Pakistan didn’t end up buying Oplots, but as far as I can tell Gaijin is adding the Oplot-P instead of the Oplot-M to the Chinese tree.

I don’t know if the deal between Pakistan and Ukraine to upgrade Pakistans T-80UDs went through, but if it did, I am not sure if those T-80UDs would actually be identical to actual Oplot-Ms.

no it is the Oplot-M because the Oplot-P looks different from what gaijin added, they also renamed it already on the dev server to Oplot-M

Interesting

So, did Pakistan actually end up getting their T-80UDs upgraded to Oplot-M standards or is Gaijin just too lazy to model the Oplot-P?

no

they trailed the Oplot-M
then they there was an upgrade to the oplot according to the demands of Pakistan which looks like this:

but then they decided to purchase the VT-4

Aight, thanks for the clarification :)

Can’t wait to see the US Oplot next update lol

And still no VT-4 for Japan, of course :))))

gaijin changed it’s name to Oplot-M

Nothing special, six years in peacetime. I don’t have any manuals nor would I be dumb enough to put them online.

Ha ha ha - Yup another 2 posts hidden because of the truth!

Bias happens in this game regardless of what some may say!
Tech trees show everything, hence the amount of Full uptiers!
Tech trees have been calculated to “Balance” mwahahah every vehicle which we all know is not the case.!
So - for example, Whats the point in playing 6.0 china to permanently be uptiered to 6.7/7.0 nearly 90% of the time. Because falsely they arent 6.0 anymore are they! NOT DIFFICULT to understand is it!

Id love to watch the Devs play 6.0 china and see how they get massacred!

You are statistically more likely to get uptiered, unless you are playing at the absolute top BR.

In each team there can only be 4 players that get a full downtier. Therefore in a match of 16v16 only 8 players get a full downtier.

Let’s use your example of 6.0:

If you get a full uptier there are at most 4 players that have 7.0 vehicles in their lineup on each team. The other players have 6.7 or lower as their highest BR vehicle in their lineup.

This has nothing to do with bias or the tech trees you play and everything to do with the matchmaking system and the popularity of certain BRs (6.7/7.0 being a very popular BR and 6.0 being a less popular BR)

Yes Im fully aware of that however! Statistically I’m up tiered every single match at 6.0 China! Thus the problem still exists,!!
The 6.0 tanks are Not 6.0, more like 6.7/7.0 because you literally rarely EVER get levelled matched let alone down tiered.!
And yes 4 are top tier on my team , YET im ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS the bottom of the BRs, their other 12 players are usually +0.3 and up. THEREFORE I am ALWAYS at a disadvantage.!

This doesnt just apply to me, this is systemic and complete farcical.! Whats the point of a “Fair” matchmaking system IF it clearly isnt FAIR!!! Regardless of Popularity!

Which then makes the obvious statement true.! Its calculated in the BRs of all vehicles to give/remove advantage.! Hence BIASED! You’ve only got to look at the line ups to realise Russia has more tanks at similar BR groupings than any other nation.!
