Hi! Most players are aware that the XM-1 Chrysler tank used to be exclusive to Xbox players, while the XM-1 GM was available only on PC at least until recently, unless I missed something.
I’ve noticed that Xbox players can now purchase the XM-1 Chrysler bundle, and they also have the option to buy the XM-1 GM with Golden Eagles. Meanwhile, PC players can no longer purchase the XM-1 Chrysler with Golden Eagles.
It would be great if this worked both ways.
I absolutely agree, lets start with the marketplace first
On the topic: why is this thing still 9.0 when the GM is 9.3? I’d argue its armor is much better, and it also has a better hp/t than the GM, though is ever so slightly slower in terms of speed and turret traverse speed. It also has the same rounds, reload, and has the same LRF and thermals. So why is it lower in battle rating? I don’t feel like the few parts where it is worse outweigh it being similar to the GM, and its arguably superior armor (mostly on the turret thickness-wise, but its hull is better angled as well).
I can’t imagine brand new players on Xbox at what was then top tier generating good statistics
Heck yeah, I would love to get my hands on one of these, I’ve heard they’re pretty good so my massive skill issue should be somewhat negated.

I know everything you wrote. What I meant was that since the XM-1 GM became available on Xbox, I haven’t seen any news about it—even though that vehicle was supposed to be exclusive to PC and PS4 players, as you mentioned. Xbox players can now purchase both the XM-1 GM and the XM-1 Chrysler. So it would be great if PC players also had the option to buy the XM-1 Chrysler, just like Xbox players can buy the XM-1 GM.
XM-1 Chrysler is Xbox Exclusive so there’s a binding agreement with Microsoft to keep it that way while the GM wasn’t an exclusive in any way.
