ammo rack, fire city. Not cool. Breaks the game. Will be stupid.

I’m fairly certain this thing will have a warped crit chance

I think ( hope ) it is going to have the overheating mechanic from the event a little while ago, hopefully it will stop it from being broken.

When i remember correctly tanks have different values for module damage -> Small caliber does less damage to modules than large caliber. I would assume that it would take a lot of module hits to get a critical in this tank.

Yeah but char have better accuracy and better pen, you need to know this will work more like tier 2-3 and the miss chance will go to astronomic levels

EBR105: Those rules don't apply to me.

Only took like 15 years, maybe in another 15 they'll make another tank line have gold rounds do less damage.

just a buff to heavies if they put this on all tanks. Imagine trying to fight a maus in sconq. you do lets say 300 damage with your gold rounds and he can still pen you pretty easy so he still does 490. He's pretty much always gonna win that fight simply because you have to lower ur dpm to even try and counter him. Imagine trying to fight tanks as a bottom tier tank aswell. Not only do you have worse stats anyways but then you also have to worsen ur dpm even more to even have a chance. lowering the damage of gold sounds good but its actually a really bad idea. The best way to fix gold is to actually properly balance tanks so that they dont need to rely on gold.

@@Potatotenkopf And can't wait to see Tier 11 premium tanks farming that techtree.

@@starkiller_thecryingscru3487 i feel like it should be a thing only for tank destroyers to keep the balance

@@starkiller_thecryingscru3487 How about calling for your team to take down the Maus instead of trying to take it on your own instead?

Imagine shooting HE clip into FV or some other paper TD💀

There is least one thing wrong. HE shells even at from normal tank wont deal damage if spaced armor will eat them. Spaced armor for some mystical reason is 3x armor value against HE shell and if shell doesnt have enough pen to go trough that then it is 0 damage against target. Overall track module thicnes like roller or road wheel is around 15-25mmx3=45-75mm of armor against HE shells which usually have about 40-60mm of pen. So i hope we see that small problem there. Side skirts thicnes varies quite lot but same idea. But absolute worst part there is how typical gun mantle is treated as spaced armor. So even with fv 183mm HE will do 0 damage against about 200 mm of spaced armor value x3=NO HE in game will have enough oomph to go trough of any of those. HE gun=Avoid frontal turret shots because too high chance to hit gun mantlet or gun.

@@Kesssuli That's obvious. I meant if it hits the hull. The actual hull.

@@azi2g That would be much more easy if pretty much all tanks didnt had spaced armor around of them. What is difference between those so called special shells vs normal HE in there if mechanics works in same way ? Damage reduction from non-penetration for normal HE is already quite harsh if it hits anything more solid. 25 damage from penetration doesnt sound too good when kv-2 900 HE aplha non penetration will do something like 100-150 against tiger 2 front. Overally may work against some very light skinned lights tanks but absolutely useless against anything else when above mentioned facts are considered.

@@Kesssuli not useless when you consider it's 75 rounds. If you're just trying to reset a cap circle if you spray it around a bit you're going to hit at least one. But with proper nametamel as you should hit at least half of the shells into a vulnerable portion.

Honestly, interesting. More tactical gameplay. While you were explaining strategic use of ammo Im really looking forward for gun play changes. Maybe new ammo types

@@iyouxintwitch We can only pray, making higher pen ammo do less damage is a start.

Its gonna turn people gay

You can see it in the video, it's 1,92% after firing

Yes it seems like WG wanted this gun to be 20mm rather than 57mm. For 1,200 rpm with 2 guns would be 600 rpm per gun, which is reasonable for a WWII or early cold war 20mm cannon. 12 damage is also the average damage of 20mm cannons at the low tiers. I wonder if this was changed only so there would be slightly higher overmatching potential? But there are not that many 8mm - 19mm plates in the game.

@@Uberrandom I guess they wanted a justification for higher penetration. The PTV-51 also had a 57mm dual autocannon yet it had 70 damage. I guess the damage reduction is because they wanted 900 clip damage and thought it would be boring to have a small 13 bullet clip (900/70≈13) 🤔.

Rhm im more a versaatile light and lights killer

Fck my English level btw :)

I really didn't

We don't know yet

@@iyouxintwitch ok thx for answer!!

Or the British Pom Pom gun

Why tho? It has its great features but it will not be that great of a scout. And less camo= cant be as sneaky assassin

1875 per HE clip and that's without RNG
