For the sample sizes, you can just list the combined number of actions counted (like for K/D, both kills and deaths) for each category. If the raw data is available, there’s no need, really, as people can just look at that for all their needs.
Surely that means Leclerc is better than STRV-122 and T-80BVM, right … right ???
Sadly, stats doesn’t really reflect a vehicle performance, it mostly reflects the average skill level of the player of said vehicle.
France being one of the least played nation in the game means only the best player will play it.
The same goes for Japan and Type 10, although Type 10 is undoubtedly much better than any Leclerc variant.
I have to say I’m suprised of the amount of 2S38 though … and how poorly they perform
I am not, if you put aside the hysteria around the 2S38, it’s not hard to see that it’s not that good of a vehicle. The most desirable part of it is the turret and LWS, but it’s mated to the BMP-3’s chassis.
Also since there’s the whole narrative that it’s OP, and it’s readily available as a premium, so it’s played extra poorly.
There are probably people that are dedicated to playing it well, but as far as I’m concerned I bought the VBCI MCT30 instead and it’s proven to be the better choice. Had it been the ATOM, and had it been the same gun as the 2S38 there would be a choice to make.
Also people mix up annoying and OP, an undisputably OP vehicle was the B1 ter when it was introduced where it was impossible to do bad with it. Doing bad in the 2S38 seems to be much easier.
Much better is pushing it, the Type 10’s advantage is that you don’t have to haul around the AZUR kit only to get a LWS. The big downside of the Type 10 is that it’s mobility is still comparable to that of the AZUR Leclerc anyway, and that it’s ready rack is only 14 rounds. The Type 10 and Leclerc are probably the two most balanced vehicles relative to one another at top tier.
2S38 is a paper box with mediocre mobility and gun depression, people use to blow it out of proportion.
I’ve seen plenty of people on this forum that swear it’s OP, but still manage to perform badly in it, which is funny when you think about it.
