Considering the amount of people in here with access to a wide amount of sources regarding French tanks, I humbly request your support in gathering resources for 2 bug reports I intend to make regarding the current modeling of the AMX-40.
I plan on making 2 invidual reports.
The 1st report I hope to compile will focus on the AMX-40’s missing NERA arrays in it’s turret, which were suddenly removed with zero explanation from the developers.
The 2nd report will focus on the AMX-40’s reload speed.
The AMX-40 uses electric drum magazines just like the Merkava, yet somehow has the slowest reload of any manually loaded tank in WT with blowout protected ready-racks. The AMX-40’s ready rack should be decreased to 15 rounds (only the electric drum magazines) and the max reload speed should be reduced to 6 seconds.
If anyone has access to sources in a format that would directly assist me in this endeavor, please by all means feel free to share with me as trying to compile both of these while being an American that speaks 0 french, has incredibly poor access to sources (at least in a way that can be submitted properly in bug reports) and works 48 hours a week is pretty difficult.
Fellow France mains, lend me your energy!!!

I’ll have a look at the stuff i dug up in the past. Here’s a link Everything wrong with the AMX-30, AMX-32 and AMX-40 series of vehicles

This was a report over a year old now and 4 months ago the moderator said they’d get a response, is their any update on the rolands elevation angles?.
Does anyone know what model the in-game AMX-40 is?
From a few sources I’m seeing it appears the in-game ready rack is incorrectly modeled (too many rounds in the turret) and that there is only 2 drum magazines, not 3 (thought what I’m seeing might be in reference to a completely different model of the AMX-40).
This would appear to correctly coincide with Rolf Hilmes’s statement on page 38 of “Kampfpanzer - Die Entwicklungen der Nachkriegszeit” that the AMX-40 only has 14 rounds in the turret bustle.
I haven’t seen it recieve any buff to it’s elevation.

It appears the in-game model is the AMX-40 P4, the final prototype according to the dev blog of when it was introduced.
Considering the 3 electric drums of the P4 are the “ready-rack”, that would still warrant the AMX-40’s current ready rack being reduced from 19 to 15 with a (hopefully) acompanied reload buff.

Doubt they’d buff it tbh, gaijin prefer nerfs over buffs for French and British vehicles XD

Getting a bug report done about the ready-rack and a (hopeful) reload buff should be incredibly easy with minimal sourcing required considering it is already modeled in game.

No update. I’ve nudged the report.

Hey. I believe there’s an AMX 32/40 thread that has been created where you can share your research. As for the reload speed report, it was already done a few months ago by -correction- @LETHALWEAPONRAC1, but the devs response was that it was a balance decision. I think the main option would be to have the composite come back, plus the addition of a new shell, maybe ? So that it and both the vextra can join the 10.0-10.7 lineup coming with the leopard 2A4

Nah bro I’m not ever doing another bug report again just to be met with this attitude from mods💀
I guess the 120mm Abrams should get a 15 second reload just because there is a video of a poorly trained loader struggling to insert the round into the breach for nearly a quarter of a minute…
Not like the video I sent was a DEMONSTRATION where the loader was clearly taking his time and was in no hurry to load the gun…

I’ve already given up at filing any more reports at this point, someone else can go deal with that frustration that I simply don’t have the patience for.
After all, this is THEIR game and I don’t get paid a single dime to attempt to fix any issues that may exist with it.

I’d love to see so many issues with current vehicles fixed but the absolute brick wall you are met with in terms of double standards, magically stupid logic, and insane requirements just pisses me off too much.
I’ll go find a snail to salt before I spend 5 minutes more of my own time trying to contribute towards improving this game.
I am reminded exactly why I gave up on this game and pratically stopped playing for 3 years.
