Sorry to bother you. But after seeing the new update and reading the recent devblogs, I was just wondering how all the recent bug reports (which have been acknowledged) for the Leclerc are going? There is expected to be a response for the M1A2’s hull armour; however, there is complete silence about the Leclerc even though bug reports for the Leclerc were much more extensive and provided much more evidence.
Hey. At the moment the developers are currently focused on the release of the patch and urgent bug fixes and changes required. For the next week or so, this will be the biggest priority. We then plan to work through many of the responses we have already mentioned and during this process, we will naturally continually be collecting feedback from the whole community.
At this spesific moment, I don’t have any individual details of particular reports. However we will be passing all feedback onto the developers for their consideration.
I hope they will then take the time to start going through all the reports, as there are way too many of them, even if more than a dozen are about the Leclercs alone.
That’s just a bid joke how can we be happy with that ? We basically still have the same tank that was already not particularly outstanding and it will now face tanks even better?
Obviously there are a lot of bug reports to go through right now, so I’m prepared to give the devs the benefit of the doubt. But I would be very concerned if we made it to the next major update and saw no progress with the bug reports. I can’t imagine a lot of them would be hard to implement. Even the armour should just be a simple matter of changing the KE and CE modifiers of the composite.
Honestly I would give them some weeks. They dropped the update (arguably sooner than expected) and rushed a few changes here and there after the complaints. I say we grant them some time, so they can work thoroughly all the reports, read the provided information and all that. If we keep on not having any news about any fix then we might as well voice again our complaints.
The benefit of the doubt can only go so far, Escargot has yet to prove that they’re committed to actually fixing French ground and Warthunder gameplay in general. So far short term profits seem to keep taking their eyes off of commitment to fixing the game.
Then with a long history, me and the majority of the French player base are all collectively traumatized and don’t really expect much to begin with. They had a decent run with La Royale to Kings of Battle, but their previous inattention and disregard aren’t forgotten. It’s likely to little to late to make a difference.
So just with the historical precedent, I’m not putting my hopes high. Especially if it will only lead to more disappointment. When I see it I’ll believe it, but there’s no reason to even give them the courtesy of believing anything they say. Or I can believe it, only to get strung along by likely empty words and promises. I didn’t put my hopes up high for this update, but I still managed to get disappointment with how bad it feels.
France top tier ground is dying so why would I want to continue finishing French air? Sure, air is what Gaijin clearly thinks is worth more attention. But if they can’t even give ground the development it needs, it just gives a bad taste since they’re ignoring half of the game.
great, yet another canned “ctrl+c & ctrl+v” response that means absolutely nothing
This isn’t new situation. There are Leclerc bug reports going back to first version introduced in 2019 … and general balance of France compared to other nations is even worse mess. If you couldn’t be bothered to do anything in past four years, when exactly do you think you’ll find time for this? Waiting for next five year plan?
If they were actually committed to fixing the Leclerc they could have started small like giving 40°/s horizontal traverse, maybe even the 5 second reload that we’ve been asking for if they wanted us to actually celebrate them.
But no, nothing. So to me Smins words aren’t worth anything.
This pacth is such a clown fest. I don’t want to be here once the T-90Ms start flooding the lobbies, guess it’s time to either uninstall the game or grind another tree. We won’t see any improvement to Top tier France for 1-2 year anyway, at best we get a new copy/paste.
Things will most likely change once more broken s**** come out and Leclerc become unplayable. Then the devs will forced to do something.
Problematic gaps still stay mostly where they were, some reshuffling through the BR was done but newly added vehicles were added mostly to BR ranges that already had at least somewhat decent lineups. Complete lack of light tanks above 8.7, with only exception gated behind paywall (why fix problems when you can monetize them). Huge problem that already existed at the end of tech tree is getting worse as the deathzone of emptiness before top-BR is getting wider. And now just so Gaijin can be sure to really rub it in and add insult to injury first two Leclercs are the only two top-BR vehicles in the entire game to not receive stock APFSDS
Can anyone really be so cynical to say things are getting better?
And I can’t wait for yet another canned “please leave feedback” response … all the feedback we gave in previous years certainly did a lot, right?
Im so so glad that they added all the spall liners to the leclerc, gave it a historical 5second reload and added f2 so it can fight on equal ground to other 11.7 tanks. Fixing the UFP too great work by gaijin
