Hello!
Why aren’t the NATO vehicles (especially IFVs) in the game armored according to STANG standards? Until the BMPT was introduced, I thought it was just a game balance adjustment, but now that it’s been introduced, the question has been resurrected. Can someone explain?
Russian Bias. But actually it is likely do to a few things that include balance, laziness and like BVVD said “we believe on an evolutionary approach to the UI” or something like that, because they don’t want player advice and suggestions on how to make the game better, which, because they are so lazy, causes them to lose potential players and therefore money, the more of a player base you have, the more money you can make by having slightly cheaper things
They are, in the sense that according to bug report feedback they think that resistance to 30 mm (STANAG 6) means 30 mm RHAe protection (see Challenger applique armour reports).
Because of wierd Bugs, which somehow effect in 98% the cases only NATO vehicles
While 1% which is overperforming is not NATO stuff
(I look at you ERA)
And 1% which runs under double Standards (External Belts cough)
This is just a wild guess, but could it be that the moderators who review bug reports are intentionally filtering approved topics before sending them to the admins? Even if the admins are biased towards Russia, this seems like a bit of an overreaction.
Which is absolutely absurd. And hell not even true in game. PUMA for example can be penned by a 50cal. And even MBTs get wasted by the Terminator’s 30mm apds.
Nope, thats just a thinfoil theory
That’s certainly true. However, I was a little worried because I heard some moderators say things like, “The Rafale is weak!” while flying the Rafale close to the ground. : )
It was something with angles as well i seem to remember, for the sideskirts at least. The 30 mm RHAe stopped 25 mm APFSDS up until 30degree from the front, which they meant equaled the STANAG classification.
However, I think that would be classified as STANG5. STANG6 is a standard that can withstand 30mm APFSDS at a distance of 500m.
