Why is the Stormer HVM so bad?

Yeah, I do hate playing this card, but if the vehicle was for 1 of the big 3, the patch would have been pushed out when done I would say, kind of annoying how its been over a week since Smin confirmed internally its been fixed and it isnt out and over 2 weeks since the release of the patch and it being broken.

It may be fixed but they gotta make sure its sufficiently shit enough for the british. Cant be having something usable.

Gaijin’s “Stop whining and use Indian Strela instead” moments, maybe?

The British aren’t allowed to have something useful. Especially when it is built domestically. :/

i may be a rat, but even i have standards. i wouldnt touch a strela with a 10ft pole let alone put it in my beautifull british line up. Shits busted and i refuse to use it over my stormer.

What’s annoying most, if they fixed the Stormer and buffed it up to IRL performance it would easily be the best SPAA at that BR range imo with the exception of absolute max range

i use it at top tier anyway as anyone who says the ADATS is good at anything apart from being a big ass targets is lying.

It’s great against helicopters and aircraft that are flying in a straight line.

Dont forget light tanks

I’ve killed MBT’s in it before.

I have as well, but I think its more luck than anything else. But sniped light tanks, especially those that are mostly hull down, thanks to the spinning of the darts. Its funny every time

When did ADATS get spinning darts?

I thought the conversation was about the Stormer… In the Stormer thread

Wasnt paying attention to the full thing

Applies rather nicely to the Stormer

Maybe the UK should consider a buy or a similar solution as a cheap SHORAD solution given we have hardly any sky sabre battery’s and no current boxer AA module.

(Also I don’t really like the idea of Boxer as a platform for things not meant to be directly engaged like AA and Artillery, I think it makes them needlessly expensive).
