I only really play Francwe anymore and I don’t touch top tier even though I still need to spade my leclercs. It’s just not nearly as fun as 5.0 to 8.3 where imo the best the french tree has to offer is.
With the recent addition of the OPLOT and the M1A2T the autoloader changes for the ZTZ and VT4 i believe china is a real sleeper pick, decent- really good MBTs alongside really good light tanks (VT5 and ZBD, although granted they atm are really hard to pull off due to a certain russian autocannon monster), amazing CAS (helis at least) and CAP. The only downsides of China really is the LACK of a good fixed wing CAS platform.
yes, and you can keep crying about it or describe how is it bad compared to 2a5 and 2a6 i played. For sure, when the idiot wants to make a a foolof himself he only goes for a person, not the take
Overall, ever Germany, Russia, Japan, Italy, France and Sweden are worthy of further development. However, from the recent data, Germany and Sweden have fallen far behind, while Russia and Japan are the top choices.
Playing the americans after german tanks feel like a step down. I’ve been playing the 2A4 and i’m close to unlocking the 2A6 and i’m amazed at the reliability. No more 50mm turret ring, no more bmps and 2s38 lolpenning me from the front. No more black horizontal ring because my engine got shot. It’s a very big quality of life and it will be felt, very much.
And their top tier jets are not really competitive anymore, Not when you have Rafale and SU30SM roaming around. Just to put it into perspective, imagine flying around in your F16C and someone shows up, shoots down all your missiles without bothering to notch, and then he still has more missiles than your full loadout.
In my experience, the biggest problem with germany and sweden top-tier is the LDIRCM Helis, which completely negate the entire ground line-up. Like for real, the best thing you can do when the enemy starts spawning these things is to just leave and cope.
This is also the problem. But the fact is that Germany and Sweden indeed do not have better helicopters (although Japan should not have IR shield and Su-30 either, but this completely depends on how Gaijin thinks). But it is certain that in reality, Germany and Sweden have better Leopard 2s. At least the 122 will have DM53. The rear hemisphere shooting of the Leopard 2 can be achieved by turning off the stabilizer. The firing rate of the Leopard 2 can also be faster
And In reality, heliDIRCM is not as effective as it is in the game. When DIRCMheli was awarded to six countries, four of them received nothing and thus became the disadvantaged party. This is unreasonable. If the gaijin did not want to add DIRCM for them, they could have strengthened these four countries by enhancing SAM instead. But the gaijin did nothing.
