FINALLY good news…
Really really hoping for them to add Rank VII to this
Lately I have been playing with the Merkava 3D together with a friend who uses Br 11.7 and I have also realized one thing, in games the HEAT-FS is practically useless, you hardly damage anyone even from the side, what I find strange is That when doing shooting tests in the garage is very different from what happens in games, for example with the HEAT-FS on the side of a Leopard 2A5 in games you don’t do any damage, instead you test at the same point in the tests of fire and you see that the HEAT-FS kills the crew members who are in the front of the penetration, it is as if in the garage penetration tests it was correct and in a battle it works poorly for some strange reason. It would be like when you test a tank in the test drive and you see that you destroy the test tanks with one shot, and then in a game you need three or four shots to kill someone.
Changing the subject, it is unfortunate that to kill tanks with the Merkava 3D you have to use the HE.
The best part of this is that, a few years ago, most (at the time) top-tier MBTs had stock APFSDS shells. There was a pretty vocal movement on the forum requesting that tanks like the Type 90 (which only had stock HEAT) get stock darts, and Gaijin’s response was to… remove stock sabot from tanks that had it. I’d really like to see stock APFSDS on every high-tier MBT again, not just top rank.
dont forget to re-mute me .THX( 360 days )
They could fix the damage model of the HEAT-FS, since this problem is based on the fact that this type of ammunition works horribly badly, it is clear that the spall liner would stop some of the spalling of the bullets, but with the HEAT-FS there are many occasions when you don’t do anything even to tanks from the side, and the funniest thing is that in the test drive the HEAT-FS in principle do correct damage, there are shots that in the test drive you kill that later in the middle of the game the damage The HEAT-FS stops on one module or only one crew member.
They just have to fix the damage model of all the bullets.
