The Leclerc is in dire need of a buff

Autoloader section, from the same Author,

Spoiler


Does not talk minimally about the reload time, so at the end its just a number at the end of the book, so why this dismissed all the 10+3 sources sent?

The ariete and merkava at least have better firepower and LWS.

and not explode fuel tank

The only reason the Leclerc has a high win rate is because the only players who bother playing the bloody thing are the best players, it’s too painful for other players. It doesn’t have the reloading speed it should have (6s is probably loading the round the farthest in the auto loader + gunner response time and not the value it should be unless you’re switching round type), it doesn’t have the right armor (it has the prototype version and the XXI doesn’t even have the titanium inserts making the Leclerc a light tank that doesn’t benefit from no armor best armor), the fuel tanks are worst than Russian auto loaders (even a piece of shrapnel can set off the fuel tanks), mobility is fine but it doesn’t have the engine response time and strength provided by the hyperbar it should have and it’s not as fast as tanks like the Type10, its round is old and has barely 600mm pen compared to the nice 650mm pen German rounds, the azur kit should resist 30mm rounds like the side of the turret (it’s not ERA its armored NERA blocks), no spall liners…should I keep going?

I mean, Gaijin, come on… But sure! give the abrams a 5s reload time and the t-90m the best armor in game.

Bit like the photos being used to show the challenger 3 doesn’t have a spall liner installed… Meanwhile in the same photos the coax gun isn’t installed so the photo’s should be dismissed tbh because it’s clearly not in a combat loadout.

Video for the Leclerc reload speed? Nooooo, it has to be speculation! Here’s a number from an engineer in a book that, btw, contradicts our other decisions concerning armor, mobility (hyperbar)…

This is turning into a sick joke again…
We’re giving them evidence that could have France become competitive, but as usual they’re closing their eyes and ears and stomping their feet as loud as they can just so they don’t have to acknowledge anything.
Are they giving France any more competitive top tier vehicles? No? So they’re more then fine with seeing the French tech tree slowly die off because they can’t be bothered with it anymore it seems.
Because we’ve got a painfully average to bad tank. Where the M1 of all things can now have a faster reload, which adds onto the lack of competitive firepower and defensive armor.
They’re excuse being some barely defined citation that says that the standard reload is 6 seconds. It can be bypassed to make it 5 seconds, 4.2 if it had too. Which is the reason the Type 10 has such a fast reload to begin with.
But we keep getting people resistant to a buff to the Leclerc. Like, “Oh, the Leclerc has 600mm in this specific and small spot” or “6 second reload is still one of the fastest reloads in the game.” as if keeping the tank below average is doing anyone any favors for being competitive. The Leclerc keeps getting power crept and no one gives a shit, meanwhile the Leclerc has nothing to make it stand out. The Type 10 and Ariete excel enough in certain areas even if they still underperform overall. The only thing the Leclerc has is above average mobility, which isn’t even that good as other vehicles are close to it and mobility alone doesn’t carry a Main Battle Tank. So the Leclerc is still condemned as the Light tank dressed as a MBT and we’re told that’s enough for us to be happy with.

We got the Mirage 4000, big deal. That just proves that they see France as only an air tree at this point.

How about this tank for France and Germany instead since Leclerc not gonna get fix anyway

Oh I am convinced when I saw the buffs on Abrams in today’s patch. Vehicles that have a lot of users or that moderators like can easily get buffs, but vehicles that have few users or that moderators don’t like won’t get buffs anytime soon.
I’m so disappointed.

Watch as it’s only given to Germany because they’re the ones leading development.

He did nothing wrong, he just forwarded what the devs said, stop going against him.

Mirage 2000 5F, Tiger HAD Mk.2, Mirage 4000 and the resolution of the SPAA gap. It was a great year for France all things considered, maybe the next they will focus on top tier ground

Entire dev team needs to go. Any new developer off the street will likely be better at this point.

Meanwhile we only got the Mirage 4000 when Rank VIII ground was introduced. So we only got 3 competitive top tier air vehicles this year? Which even that’s a bit of a stretch. So far the Mirage 4000 seems to be the only meta defining vehicle. It’s still not a good excuse for everything else that has been happening.
That’s still embarrassing compared to everything else that has been getting asked for.
