    When you had to play 2,000 hours to get the worst MBT in this list.

      Yeah, the British got shafted big time. Challenger's mobility is poor due to a weak powerpack for it's weight. The Stormer is a specialised AA system while the other nations got more universal AA vehicles.
      Every time somebody says Germany suffers I say play the British and discover the true meaning of suffering.

      A tutorial for what? To teach players what? For tanks, everyone has to learn how to angle and to aim for weakspots. That's not something that should be reminded every tier. For planes, it's just climbing, energy, and aiming. If there was a tutorial for every tier, what would be taught? All the things I just mentioned would be learned through experience and at the beginning of playing.

    I think a pretty large flaw in the test is the ammo choice per tank, especially at higher BR.

The T-80U with the ATGM would have looked silly next to the others if it used anything else.

    Here is a suggestion that would be easy to implement and greatly increase gameplay without any unfair advantages:
    The game already has some trucks with troop transport capabilities (M3 GMC, BTR, etc), but they do not bring any soldiers. My idea is that troop transport trucks could carry the troops to friendly capture points, at which point they would be "dropped off" and (I will explain this with an example) let's say that a troop transport truck drops off 6 soldiers at a point. the "soldiers" at a point will be marked with a small number at the point either on the map, next to the point indicator, or will appear on screen while standing on the point. Now that the point has 6 soldiers at it, friendly tanks sitting on the point may use these as a bonus to crew replenishment. After a tank replenishes its crew using the soldiers the troop transport dropped off, the transport player will gain spawn points, lions, and research points based on a portion of the kills/assists made by the tank which is carrying the crew members that the truck dropped off originally, this reward being similar to rewards made for destroyed targets that you have scouted. It will be harder to crack down on enemy capture points, but only slightly, as this will require defenders to sit on the point, as well as the troops being very limited, and the fact that players on the team are being devoted to transport instead of fighting. Here are other ways you can further this:
    Troop transports could return all the way to spawn, and then reload troops in a manner similar to an airfield's reload mechanics
    Troop transports could transfer troops between capture points, particularly on maps where there is a "home" point and a mid point in order to help supply the front lines instead of having them sit uselessly in the rear.
    Troop transports could supply crew directly to allied tanks, similar to the "help with repairs" mechanic.
    Unarmed troop transports could have a soldier on either side with a controllable machine gun (like the commander uses on open topped tanks)
    Those ideas I listed are totally optional. Thank you for taking the time to read this!

    The sad moment when the challenger 2 should keep up with the others off road thanks to hydrogas suspension but it still can't push 40km/h offroad and has a 30mm thick mantlet.
    You can't call the thing a challenger 2 when it isn't even vaguely accurate.

      "The construction of the prototype was completed in 1944. The tank achieved a speed of 40kmh during the trials. The tests were seen as a success, resulting in the Army ordering 5 units of the tank. The tank was put in service as the Type5 Ho-Ri, as the production model started in 1945. However, by the time of the war's end, the series of tanks only made it to 50% completion. Only one operable prototype had been completed fully." sensha-manual.blogspot.com/2016/11/type5-ho-ri-japanese-ferdinand.html

      @@southernbear736 yes. And we have this vehicle in game as the HoRi Prototype, which is a decent T4 Premium. The HoRi "production" as it is in game, is complete fantasy. Japan in 1945 did NOT have the technology to build a 1,100hp gasoline engine. At least the Maus and E100 were actually partially built.

      And in the same vein, why not add the Panther A or G to the French tree. They used a number of them after WW 2 until the early 1950s.

      Maps bein realistic with vehicles isnt a thing, unsless it is a dedicated mode. We have tanks fighting in a USA map?!?! As long as they're cool and offer something different I'm fine with it, perhaps a new mode....

    Will we ever be able to rearm at an airfield with our plane with a different payload if we have the spawn points in a tank RB? Also the AP MK I & II do not work very well and I was wondering if maybe they might be broken because they don't do anything when I hit tanks with them

    It actually depends on the person using it. But the best Mbt in my opinion is the 2A5. The worst one is the Abrams

    • @panzerdespenser9030
      @panzerdespenser9030 4 роки тому

      And the reason why I think the Abrams is the worst is the fact it has many weaknesses (ex: the lower plate, neck, mantlet, cheek, ect) and the people that I see use it just scream "Abrams is best!" then they die in a few seconds after that. (The reason why I say the cheek is a weakness is because I shot through the M1A1's cheek with my Leopard 2k at close range)

      The abrams is a good vehicle but it's alot weaker than the newer mbt's.

      Any tank from rank 3 and above can kill the M1, IPM1, and M1A1 reliably just think about something at its own BR. Anything can go through the turret cheek and 90% of the time they will ammo rack you making the whole point of a blow out panel redundant. When i played the T-64B as long as i saw the enemy first the Abrams had no chance of survival with a shot to the turret ring, it would kill the gunner, commander, engine, turret ring, and gun, sometimes it would just kill all 3 crew. The M1 has the worst gun in 10.0, the M1A1 has a decent gun but it loses the fast fire rate. If BRs get moved to 11.0 i don't think any Abrams should go up eventhough the M1A1 gets a better gun it's still the slowest Abrams with the slowest reload.
