The Leclerc is in dire need of a buff

that i have no idea lol

but hey we wont die to automatic cannons as ez in azur and first tank over 9.0 since 2021 December update

btw it’s kinda weird that azur will be a new end vehicle instead of modification to S2. We have S1/S2 and then SXXI with better armor and commander thermals which makes sense. But then we are back to S2 but now with “better” side protection (it’s gaijin we are talking here, so they will propably give it like 5mm of kinetic protecion)

Personally, I would have preferred the AZUR in Premium.

No d’OFL F2 pour L’AZUR…

I’d say it’s more of a provocation at this stage, it’s like ships, several nations have received premium ships, even the Russians (surpriise) but nothing from the French…

but hey we are finally getting a roof mounted machine gun that should have been there for years on commanders hatch

Well, if it makes you happy. That’s a plus, yes, but it doesn’t change how little gaijin invest in the French nation.

First 9.0+ tank since 2021though it seems liked they could have fixed mobility 1500hp now not the stupid 1475 hoping its turbo lag is fixed

I agree that a 9.0+ is fine, but what France really needs is a Premium 10.0+ and a 10.3 tree vehicle.

if France gets even one 10.0 its 10.0 lineup is pretty decent

Adding a new Leclerc is really cool, fixing it numerous issues is better

I think it is composite armor (same as the 3 boxes already on the Leclerc but on all the lenght)

Honestly “hope” and “gaijin” related to something french doesn’t sound right.
Actually, yes, we must have hope because that is probably the sole thing we will get…

we should open a bet to find out if this new Leclerc is going to be a trash can with uncorrected armor?
NO?

So no OFL F2 for the AZUR, same reload and no armor fix. The only thing you get for a whole new tank is a roof mounted MG and ERA that will be only effective against CE (the AZUR kit was designed to defeat RPGs first and foremost), and might not even be enough to stop a BMP-2M’s missile. Currently on the dev server it has the same weight as the SXXI, but that’s sure to change in the live server, making it a straight downgrade to the SXXI.

The addition of the AZUR if it only adds some limited CE protection on the side is an utterly pointless addition.

Oh, and no new ships for France even though the tech tree is pretty lacking and they’re already introducing a new rank.

And some thoughts for the poor Japanese players who are going for yet another patch without a proper high tier AA.

“Gaijin listen to the community” what a load of bull. I’m so exhausted.
