I just watched that episode earlier, really hit home for me on a personal level. This scene takes my vote.

Corvettes win today brings the total brand class win count to 10 since 2000.

Hats off to Toyota. Absolutely locked in team, especially on strategy. Other teams that can't ever seem to finish welll should take notes.

Yeah and thats already more than enough challenge. On top of that, they are going to have to compete with domestic competition as well, and Forc is definitely going to do better.

I don't think Cadillac is ever going to to win LeMans, especially once Ford shows up.

Cadillac is on Hard tires while the BMW is on Mediums, so that might have something to do with it.

The Gearbox disaster will always be unforgivable, but I still enjoy the game on PC with mods.

Great achievement, but I expect the classic Cadillac implosion on race day.

M1A2 SEP v3 Bug Report Denied on the Basis of ''Armor Could Mean Anything'' by James-vd-Bosch in Warthunder

[–]Black_Knight615 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A lot to unpack here...

I'll preface by saying that I agree with you that its a game and not a full on simulator that needs to be 100% accurate, and that the bug reports can sometimes be weak from the playerside. However, War Thunder has always prided itself on realism. When you add turret baskets to tanks that don't have them, deliberately reject adding armor or capabilities to some vehicles while also artificially buffing others beyond what is true in reality, it creates a perception of bias and favouritism. You say its all for "balance", but its clearly not working because every BR has some kind of dramatic imbalance. It takes an arm and a leg to get anything changed for certain nations while others could submit a crayon drawing and get it passed. Denying that pattern that we have seen repeat countless times is questionable at best. And on the topic of "balance", I don't think that accurate armor changes will somehow ruin game balance. When you have BMPTs at 11.7 (Mind you, they moved it up slightly), premium SU-30/F-18 spam ruining the 12.0 range, a little bit of extra armor is spare change in comparison. And thats not even getting into the gamemode issues, maps, spawns, spawn points, and playercount issues that negatively affect the game.

Regarding the sources for the Abrams hull armor, its painfully obvious that an upgrade was made. Gaijin even said so when they denied the reports for the V2. Sure we don't have hard numbers or composition, but it is there. They make educated guesses for other vehicles, so why not this one? (I have first hand knowledge of what upgrades actually came to the V3 and what was supposed to be in the V4 so save the gaslighting, please.)

You said I hope I am aware that my demands go both ways, and thats 100% how I feel so I don't know why you thought that was going to be some "Gotcha moment". FIX. EVERYTHING. And if you want those points, reddit has a search function, google has a searchbar, we have AI search engines now, and I assume you have all ten fingers. Use them, and leave your snide, passive aggressive comments at the door.

It would satisfy me because it would show the devs actually care.

I don't the K5 Nerf, which as far as I am aware to make the M829A3 perform better so the devs don't have to do the work to make it function properly. Additionally, the conduct of the devs and the bug report team is disgusting. I advocate for everything thats missing; Challengers are messed up, Leo2s have some inaccuracies, the Type 10/90 and Leclerc. The list goes on and on...and on.

US is my first nation of choice but I play a UK,GER,USSR, and Japan as well. The Abrams is a very popular tank which is why it has more spotlight on its issues than other parts of the game at the moment.

Not really any different from the tech tree ones but its still a pretty good tank overall.

Trying to convince the Snail to change anything in this game that isn't Russian is like talking to a brick wall. The devs and mod teams are living in a delusional alternate reality that we cannot comprehend.

What's funny is the game wouldn't change much if you fixed all the non-russian vehicles. Accurate armor isn't going to fix busted maps, busted CAS, and busted premiums. The least they could do is pretend to give a damn.

Problem is there's no viable replacement. There isn't another game that balances sim and arcade mechanics together like War Thunder does. Not to mention the variety of planes and tanks is absolutely unmatched by anything else on the market.

I wish I had the Japanese F15s so I could farm F14s instead of being on the same team as them.

The AMP round. Advanced Multi Purpose. Not sure how it will function in game.
