On top of this, having 0 kills but 10 spot assists is something that sometimes happens when I’m in a light tank and don’t want to risk popping my turret above a hill. I once tried to get as many as I could in one game and managed to spawn in a plane close to the end for only about 150sp.

I just hate the fact that I know I am doing horribly on one day but forces myself to play and then getting crushed.
S1 and S2 need to be moved down to 11.7.

The only reason that keeps me playing France top tier is the players. French main is group of people who built differently.

Has someone made a condensed list of all the issues with the Leclerc? I think it’d be good to be able to like to everything, especially if it can be linked in tandem with similar all-issue lists for the Merkava, Ariete, Challenger 2/3, Abrams, etc. into a suggestion for a “fix everything” update suggestion.

gaijin should make a system where choosing a weaker shell in garage makes the vehicles br lower to ease the progression to the top tier a bit more tolerable with leclerc
That would quickly get abused

The Vextra 105 which should have its improved APFSDS…
That would lock changing loadouts in-match or be obvious cheating.
This is where APCR shines,
About the topic,
Gaijin could add the Leclerc MSC Ares to the game either as gap filler between 9.7 and 12.0 somewhere in 10.0 BR range or as premium to promote French tech-tree.
And Leclerc T4 140 mm, for God’s sake, it’s a way more interesting vehicle for event than a Boxer with a Cockerill 3105.

It’s a nice idea but just imagine T-80BVMs chosing to use 3BM40 or Leopard 2A5 using DM-33.
You just move the problem
I don’t remember about OFL 120 F1B+ (or even if it was ever advertised by Nexter). But OFL 120 F1B appears to use a lighter casing (perhaps to place less stress on autoloader?) than OFL 120 F1A which initially entered service with the French army.
OFL 120 F1B
OFL 120 F1A
There was also this round at some point:
But as for the details? Who knows lol. Nexter doesn’t tell us shit - just like that time they designed a Nizh-like ERA in the early 2000s as well as a hybrid IFV.

The Netherlands just announced that they are purchasing 46 Leopards 2A8, so yeah. Hope you’re ready boys and girls, because that’s the future of the French tree. And considering gaijin’s unwillingness to fix the Leclerc, probably the only hope we have to have a competitive top tier tank.

Some improvements would be lovely but Leclerc is one of my best tanks.
I don’t want to rush to conclussions considering not all of the “leak” lists are worth mentioning, but I will say if this were to be true it would be very in character for Gaijin to simply add Leopards as a band-aid “fix” for top tier France ground instead of fixing anything related to the Leclercs.
I’m not saying I wouldn’t be happy to see Benelux Leopards come to the French TT, but I would absolutely HATE for them to be introduced in a way that makes them the primary vehicle or “best/most meta” tank of French top tier while making all of the Leclercs completely irrelevant.
If you add Benelux Leopards with the current state of the Leclercs, that’s exactly what will happen.
You’ll get a repeat similair to Italy’s Hungarian Leopard being the best tank of the lineup because all of the Ariete’s are over BR’d and modeled terribly.
I’ve started to pick up and enjoy War Thunder again, but only in the mid-tiers like France’s 7.7 lineup (my absolute favorite); top tier is a whole other mess that I would rather not touch anytime soon.

because we all know what france needed was more 12.0 mbts -_-

If they are added I will defiantly be spawning in the 2A6 and 2A5 before any Leclerc’s. I wonder if we will see the Leopard 2A6EM2 aswell?
We all know why. Why would Gaijin devout any amount of resources to making a minor countries MBTs good when instead they can pay an intern in vodka bottles to Ctrl + C / Ctrl + V the leopards a few times.

This is why I’m not looking forward to 2A5NL and 2A6NL at all…
If I wanted to play 2A5s and 2A6s, I would just play Germany, lol. (Or Sweden, which has even better ones).
If at least the NL variants were different in ANY way, even just thermals, I would actually be happy; but apparently they are just identical to the German ones.
