That bit about the devs going "Well we think" despite evidence to the contrary seems a theme with most people I know talking about their own experience bug reporting. Supposedly a similiar bit about MANPADs with them saying they can't be that agile because they're smaller than Sidewinders and other missiles. Per example.

Gaijin: Provide documented proof of vehicle inaccuracy or we won't fix it Playerbase: *provides proof* gaijin: "I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that." Reminds me of sherman smoke launchers... It's been 7? years now? There have been tons and tons and TONS of bug reports. stating that at the very least all 76mm m4a2 and m4a3 variants should have smoke launchers. (and arguably, all except maybe the m4a1 variant? but I might be mistaken on that) Yet with the exception of a few specific cases, no shermans have smoke launchers. Despite all the documented proof that was given to gaijin. And it's not even like they're saying it's inaccurate or something. No from all the reports I've seen gaijin just intentionally ignores them. Like outright not replying to it not marking it as not a bug/looked into etc. Just literally ignoring it. Meanwhile a poorly sourced report comes in about supposedly the m4a3 76 having a significantly slower turret traverse? less than a month after it was a posted it was included in the patch that followed. And this was while they were also still ignoring all the bug reports about the m4a3 having 500 hp instead of 450. So yea. Thanks gaijin.

I play top tier US quite often and I must say that I relegated the HSTV-L to one of my last spawns, it's just so painfully inconsistent having to hit sometimes multiple times a single crew member, or just not penetrating at all breech areas or common weakspots due to the anemic shell, extremely painful.

I agree that this is not a bad tank. However the thing is that even when you are on the top of the skill celling - your performance would be still HEAVILY dependent on random. Current state XM885 should mean "inconsistancy" in any language around the world. You simply cannot rely on it. One time it will one-shot BVM at 1000 meters other time it won't set off the ammo that was directly hit from 50 meters. Every shot is like rolling a dice.

@TankistRazumist Typical vatnik apologist. Let's go point by point. The HSTVL is faster, but it's only by 10kmh. This is not a wide enough gap in performance to warrant a BR gap you are describing. The argument of armor is honesty hilarious considering just how little this matters when facing 600 mm pen kinetic rounds and HEAT warheads with pen in the 800 to 900 mm range. The HSTVL needs a buff, not a downtier. It had anti aircraft capabilites and it needs its faster reload that it does not have in the game. XM855 is also underperforming by quite a bit. Its pen is about 100 less than it should be(there's multiple documents saying it has similar penetration to M774), and its spalling is laughable, to say the least. The 2s38 with it's gen 3 thermals and IRST helicopter and jet deleting capability should be at 10.0 or 10.3. The M3A3 Bradley and Puma should also be buffed and moved up to a similar BR. As for the BMP-2M, it should 10.0, no buff needed. Lastly, you alluded to the Sargent York. This is a decent AA system, but severely lacks the flexibility of the 2S38 fucking miles. Kick Rocks

if you're an HSTVL fan, check out the original 1980s G.I. Joe series, the Mauler MBT that the joes use in their fight against Cobra is a laser HSTVL. they also made a 3-3/4 inch figure scale toy HSTVL that was motorized and awesome, in 1985.

what I've noticed about apfsds and russian top tier tank breaches is that apfsds does NOT like to go through even if you are using very good apfsds but when it comes to heatfs it goes right through and takes the breach

Yeah thats what got me out of top tier battles. You shoot russian breeches, they dont receive any damage, you shoot their guns, volumetric says otherwise. But the thing that definitely upsets me the most is the era. Totally unpredictable, making it unfair. I had kontakt1 eat m829a2 from my abrams, from a flat side shot. This is such an outrageous thing that I was forced to leave toptier for good.

the HSTV-L, from what i can tell from how i and many other play it, and it's overall characteristics, it is an incredible Ambush Vehicle. it is relatively low in height, and thus can be effectively used to basically hide in a Ditch and then open fire on multiple vehicles once thye have passed. use it for Ambushes and Scouting, or to kill crippled targets quickly to help alleviate the focus on a singular target for your team, and you WILL do well almost every match as long as the entire Team isnt AFK.

My issue with the HSTV-L’s balancing is that the comparable Russian vehicle has both a lower BR and it’s proper fire rate. The HSTV-L should be slinging shells just as quickly.

15:48 What the army means by an air transportable tank *throws it off a cliff with a chute and some air brakes I'd love to see a Leopard 2PL video because personally I love said vehicle. Everyone complained about it being a squad vehicle straight to top tier understandably but now it's kinda just left in the background behind the AIM and Swedish T-80.

I kinda want to watch you take out the type 10 and TKX since it alleviates that reload and pen trouble that the HSTV-L has but with a 120mm instead of a 75mm.

I know you've said you're not into academics, but your devotion to researching something as mundane as the characteristics of a dart on a prototype test bed that never got anywhere near production... and then writing multiple lengthy documents presenting compiled evidence with unique conclusions, you're basically doing the same work that a graduate student in a history program is doing at any notable graduate research university in the US. It's impressive.

i love how in gaijin’s mind the core of apfsds ammunition scales with the caliber even tho it doesn’t since for the most part when it comes to low caliber apfsds their cores are the same size the only thing that changes from round to round is the casing and maybe rod length but the diameter stays relatively the same.

Agreed, the double standard that a 120mm that has a 4 second reload (pretty sure it is actually supposed to be a 3 second reload) is fine but a 75mm can't have a lower reload even though it doesn't even do any damage. I wish it was possible to just hack an update into WT that fixes stuff.
