Just how recently? I was quite surprised to see this, its ridiculous
Literally a few days ago iirc. Think it was Mango from a UD.

It’s a bug on the 2A7V, not a “flaw” of the design, as the armor was wholey designed starting the 2A5 variant to resist 700mm+ KE, including that part of the turret.

Interesting. I would suggest bug reporting it again as clearly its been shelved down in a basement.
then it would go to 11.0 or 11.3
From what Smin told me a while ago, it’s in a queue so a “matter of time”.
Not really mate.
2A4 is a solid 10.7 if not th ebest 10.7 in the game, it’s lacking nothing

Another issue, this goes for all the german leopards only the swedish and italian leopards for some reason are not affected, is that any shot through the breach and barrel will cause secondary spall to kill the commander or loader. It should only stop at the breach and cause no spalling after like every other MBT but for some reason only german leopards have this bug

Please don’t tell me this is a designed nerf to the germans just like the 6 second reload :(

Devs forgetting to undo a nerf? Not the first time lol. I don’t expect them to fix it anytime soon
The dev who made said nerf has probably left the company by now
Just like how I left germany already. No reason to play a nerfed nation. Should of realized Japan top tier ground is nerfed. Now I either start Russia or stick to air.
Honestly Germany is completely fine aside from LDIRCM Heli being absent.
Unfortunately top tier meta is whoever has the most uncontested LDIRCM Helis up wins.
I would recommend China, great overall top tier lineup with M1A2T introduction.
Grind Russia if you are really curious as to how they perform, but spoiler alert, its torture.
I’d imagine its the dumb teammates like USA and Germany suffer from.
Only benefit it good SPAA which is subject to change very soon. Also IRIS-T is still not resistant to LDIRCM so…
And skill goes to waste in top tier when germany loses 9/10 matches against Russia. I’ve seen that at least Japan has a better chance of winning since they get teamed up with Russia more and has su30 cas. Just the Japan has tanks missing armor and SPAA is the worst. I was thinking of China but I still have a personal grudge against them for the VT4 situation. And the devs bloated Russia’s tech tree so much my head hurts thinking of finishing all of ground. If I start another ground tree prob gonna do Italy since they have meme vehicles and up to 10.0 seems fine.
Yes. But also that RU tanks are generally straight azz to play. No reverse, no mobility, no gun handling, no depression, terrible tech, awful reload, etc. The mythical armor they’re held up to have just… doesn’t work xd.
LDIRCM Helis were a mistake I won’t lie. All I can say is wait for the LDIRCM Heli meta to blow over.
Err… exaggerated. Its more like 5.5/10.
I don’t see a point in it. The tree itself did nothing wrong, they’re just vehicles that you can research and play.
I know its just a personal grudge. I just don’t want to be associated with them.
Plus most of China is copy paste from russia. I’d rather start Russia if I want to drive T-series and fly flankers. Also China’s top tier ground apparantly is a little nerfed so what’s the point.
Its more of a blend between US/RU for early ranks, then becomes mostly unique later on:
Spoiler
China’s top tier isn’t really nerfed tbh. They do well, fun vehicles.
China 9.0 and up is just pure fun man
