OK, lets be real here: it's not a GSOR vehicle. It's a "British" AMX-10RC that was slightly modified becaus WG can't be arsed to reserch anything beyond the basic id number to make it somewhat believable. The whole line is fiction/kitbash (in higher tiers). I mean at least the design is (somewhat) plausible/workable. The tier 9 is worse. It uses the 1006 pruposed hull and adds a Vickers Mk. 3 turret onto it somehow...

The pass off as real thing annoys me too. What upsets me more so though is that as you said/did the work for them to have clearly, easily implementable real vehicles both built and designed yet they chose to just make it up instead. Whats the point of adding something fake when you could add something thats real? So what if even 90% of the players dont understand autocannons can be superior in some instances over a main gun, let the 10% that understand this enjoy something thats a bit more real, same goes for the radar. Also the way they treat their players as "too dumb" is why I moved away from that game. When I heard British wheelie bois coming to it I was so close to reinstalling but then I saw effectively only 3 of the vehicles seem to be actually real lol. Though Saladin might be worth it if they dont bung that up. Have to give you big props for putting up with how they treat the history and information you put so much time and effort into finding for them, hope that they listen to it for the future and we can get some more "realistic" additions to that game as I enjoyed it, but they just never really added more things I wanted for years.

Its not that they don't work in a game or even wouldn't work in WoT. After all they do work in low tiers and they used to have larger ACs in mid tiers as well. When introduced the French tanks startig mid tier all had auto loaders. This had been their gimick. These worked allmost like ACs with very short ramming time... Which caused conciderable bad blood in the community. It turned out the heavy tank players had a conciderable problem with a light tank flanking them and by unloading their clip into their rear taking more than 1/2 their HP befor they could turn their turret. I guess if you have to compensate for things by driving the biggest tank possible its very detrimental getting outmanoeuvered and -played by a small light tank. If they would introduce post WW2 ACs it would be allmost exactly that situation again.

I'm sure they'd come up with a reason why a 2 second burst totalling 30 rounds of 20mm would be as damaging as a single shot of 75mm.

"Ablative armor" No such thing in WoT. Non-penetrating shots don't make following shots any more likely to pen. You could put the skink in the game, but at tier III it would be similar to the Pz II J which everyone hates. The closest thing at tier V is that Polish medium that has a 40mm Bofors stock. The Leo has a 30mm stock but it's primarily a scout.

THEY WILL alter the rules and game mechanics of the game to introduce something at a different tier level, or outright make shit up, especially if its premium content they want to sell.

The difference in WoT of penetration values regular AP to premium APCR for the 20mm on that Pz II is double (23/46mm), when in the real world... it was 23mm at 100 meters / 14mm at 500 meters for the AP and 40mm at 100m / 20mm at 500m for the APCR.

As a WoT player, I hate the fact that WoT just has no real competition in its genre. So they can pull shit like this, and get away with it, because there is no competition. Concerning the radars: passive scouting in WoT is useless until the endgame on a majority of maps, because said majority of maps consists of city/CQC maps, and in open maps, camping is a big issue because of TDs and Artillery, specifically artillery, because of the stun and crew/module damage associated with getting hit by it. In summary: I hate WGs Monopoly on the WW2 arcade tank shooter genre, and more powerful passive scouting would make open maps even bigger campfests than they already are.

Dropped autocannon options because they felt players too stupid to realize they'd still be useful and bigger isn't better. Gee, I wonder how players got that idea - could it be how tanks got tiered based on gun size and gun damage was based on caliber, and higher tiers would get bigger guns than previous tiers nearly every time alongside the increase in HP per tier? Of course, OTOH, we have AW, where MBT players at one point heavily complained that autocannons were piercing their side/rear armor. And the radar thing... They think players are smart enough for siege mode, but not radar toggle? OTOH, I can't really fault them for deleting missiles off turrets/hulls since they've done a decent job not introducing ATGMs into the PC game thus far. But not even keep the turret design otherwise?
@RedXlV Жыл бұрын
My guess for their reason of not doing radar is the same reason it's taken so long for Wargaming to implement British wheeled vehicles at all: the backlash against the French wheeled vehicles. I'm betting they decided they're going to make the British wheelies as conventional as possible, without any new mechanics, because they figure players will be more accepting of that. If so, they've probably got a point. Players as a whole *will* be less likely to accept a potentially powerful new mechanic if it's added to wheeled vehicles rather than if the exact same mechanic is implemented on a line of "proper" tanks. Entirely because the French wheelies are so widely seen as toxic, and thus the very idea of wheeled vehicles in World of Tanks is now controversial.

Oh shut up, WG is 100% legit, Italy won ww2 with an average wn8 of 2k thanks to the hordes of progetto 46 pawning enemies here and there, so good that they completed 279e campaign alone.

After watching this video you get the idea that maybe.... just maybe you're less than impressed with Wargaming... Not 100% convinced though.

Normally I love look-alikes and life-scale kitbashes, but total fabrications like this don't really do it for me.

Now wait a minute…, Ya don’t suppose they bungled all this you’ve pointed out, on purpose; in some fiendish master plan in cooperation with MOD in an organized effort to confuse the sh*t out of the “real-world” Russians as to what true developmental stages have taken place to properly produce a state of the art wheeled AFV!? 🤣
