The Leclerc is in dire need of a buff

Some very suspicious comments flagging going on in this thread…

Anyway, I decided to try making two bug reports. One for the excessive spalling showed in the video in the OP, and one about the missing ERA in the turret. I don’t have high hopes but we’ll see how that goes, nothing ventured nothing gained.

im assuming there is era on the right cheek, if so do we know which sections it is in

Thanks for submitting that, I kept looking up Leclerc ERA ever since I saw that vid and was surprised not to see a report
Now we wait for the officer to be labeled an unreliable source and for the “not a bug” label because of the lack of details

The Leclerc. Is my favorite top tier tank that I have played out of the M1A2, Leo2a6, Type 10, and Ariete.

I think the mobility at low speeds is much worse than it should be, especially neutral steering.
It could also be given the better round without any problem.

As far as protection I find that it is surprisingly durable.
All NATO tanks seem to have lower than RL values for armor and I doubt that will change due to everything being classified.

Regenerative steering simulation & better torque converter simulation as a feature will be needed for it to get better low speed accel.

Yeah, I don’t have high hopes for this one. I’m at least hoping that they’ll look at the spalling and go “Yeah, that doesn’t look right” and change it to something more sensible.

But again, nothing ventured nothing gained. We’ll see what happens.

it is unfortunate gaijin doesn’t have the internal walls modeled more because rn the Leclerc is just open space

So I got an answer for the ERA…

So they want us to give them documents on a classified vehicles, but not classified documents.
Which is absolutely impossible. And then they wonder why leaks happens… 🤦‍♂️

@Smin1080p Seriously, Gaijin is gonna have to loosen those rules for in service vehicles, because what you’re requiring of us is literally impossible.
And I’m not using “literally” for empathy here, I’m using it in its literal sense.

would have been nice if they gave a response that wasn’t just not a bug i think its crazy the amount of spalling is intentional and that spall went through 30mm plate

You know, the French community could lobby to replace the French advisor like the Chinese community did with the Chinese advisor.

BTW, I have to appreciate that every post crticizing my pro-Leclerc improvement posts are all available for people to see.
Glad no one abused the system against those posts.

Aaaaaand a reponse for the spall

So apparently getting killed by a shot that doesn’t penetrate the hull is intended behavior 🙄

There would need to be one for that. From what I heard it’s the Italian advisor that does France stuff on the side as well.

Well…
I guess someone that speaks French & has a background in information gathering is needed flat out.

That explains a lot now…
So we just need a french advisor

It shows how little interest Gaijin has in us, because let’s be serious for 30 seconds, out of 66 million French people and surely double in the world that Gaijin doesn’t come and tell me that they haven’t found anyone as a French advisor… It would be bad faith on their part.

well there is nothing stopping someone french to become an advisor, see what the chinese community has managed to do

Yes, but the Chinese are on a different side than the French, without wanting to play politics… The Chinese will be able to obtain more things than the French will ever be able to have. But that’s another story that will distract us from the main topic.

In addition Gaijin cultivates a policy of secrecy and non-communication. If he really wanted to solicit the services of a French advisor, they would have to say so directly. It’s still incredible to learn from the community that the French don’t have an advisor.

Anyway next. Gaijin doesn’t read forums anyway.

Gaijin has mediators for forums traffic.
As for Gaijin unable to find a French advisor… it’s not as surprising as one would think.
IDK how many French people are interested in video game development, let alone have the skill of information gathering at the same time, but it seems less than Germany.

Perhaps we could ask the community both here and on reddit and YT for whoever is willing to become the french advisor
There is no harm in trying, and with luck Gaijin will get notified.
I mean, why do we even have the italian consultant for france!? He has nothing to do with france and looking at his previous work regarding french vehices (FULL of inaccuracies everywhere, just look at the SANTAL or Mirage-2000-5F), he sure as hell is not qualified to speak about french vehicles.
