Nerfed before it even makes it to live server, likely gonna bounce up to 11.0 as well.
Or what is it only 10.7 to justify the existence of the TT 2a4 xd

I would indeed think (wishfully) that it would stay for the dutch TT leo. Even more so that there will be a premium 2a4
PS: hello fellow pigeon
They’ll either destroy it to make it fit 10.7, e.g as we see, wrong reloads, armours etc Or itll get moved up due to players doing exceptionally well with it.
TBH they could of just made the leclerc premium with a worse round at 11.3 and put this thing in as it should be, at 11.0/11.3 and then there would be no need for a 2A4 NL prem -.- but I digress.
Also hello ^Pigeon o7

VT-5 is also much better than the MSC without even counting the ammo. It has a better round, better armor, better optics. It might be a bit worse in mobility, and again if the devs are going to put the MSC at almost 54t tons for some reason, it might not be the case.
Being only .3 above if we have the Leclerc the same reload doesn’t seem too bad

Not really for the armour part, 30 mm hull and turret has 0.3 or sth modifier. Also isn’t MSC still a like 400+ KE round? Same reload I think should definitely be warranted.
Balance? Are you sure?
“Excellent” xd

Yes, the fact that they have increased the reload from 5 to 6s can only be explained because they do it for « balance », which I don’t agree with personally
So the MSC will reserve the same ammunition as the AMX 40, will have a little more mobility or even the same, a little more speed but much less armor…
and will be in 10.7 while the AMX 40 is in 10?? find the error

Also is that tank really supposed to weight 53t?
These da_n id____s are absolutely butchering the MSC — just like what they’ve been doing to Leclerc for years.

Ah yes no armour but weighs the same as regular leclerc with armour. Make it make sense

So this is the tank they were hesitant to add for several years ? This was the time it took for them to add an objectively worse AMX 40 ? Their logic are beyond my comprehension. Not that surprised though. It was the same story with the Dunkerque…

Emphasis on you have played, no we have lol
It being a test bed it could have some kind of steel weights to simulate armor like the Obj292, but Gaijin seems to just keep the wight without bothering to think about where it cam from and how to implement it correctly (even if just based on assumptions)

even on obj292 the steel weights are modeled and have actual armor values somewhat , msc is just a empty box that is heavy.

That’s french light tanks for you ;-) But without scouting and drone. And light tank spawn cost. No. wait. But it does have a stabilizer no? Yes, that should be enough actually to make any france player happy.

MSC might be a competitor to the pt16 soon?

I think so, otherwise it’s near the same exact armor as normal leclerc, just not having some on the side of the turret, sadly the reload wasn’t changed.
