Of all the vehicles in War Thunder, the American T25 medium tank has received possibly the harshest treatment from Gaijin devs. Not only did it move way up in battle rating, but it was nerfed and stayed at the same BR.

    Update on the microphone situation since some people were concerned about it; I'm only gonna use the headset mic when I'm working away from my desktop. I'm investing in an audio interface and have done a few other things that should make the regular mic sound better. I wasn't happy with how much the sound of my KB and mouse came through on it but I've more or less solved that problem.

Oh, and you also get M50 HEAT spammer and T114 which is pretty ridiculous for a 6.7. 7.0 M46 is just a faster M26 with HEATFS and stabbed, then you get T29, A2D-1 and T95.

When you're playing against it nothing pens the front hull (not even Comet APDS anymore) and the turret trolls every shot, meanwhile the Panther driver just has to click on every other 5.3-6.0 medium. When you're playing one, every shot that hits the turret goes through. And if that's not enough, there's *9 OF THEM IN GAME.* And 6 of them are Germany.

You can even see on the minimap the tiger he's hunting for so it's not like the sherman expects the area to be empty or a safespace that he's going to continue full speed through unless he literally has zero game-sense/knowledge. Riding on your teammate's ass like 10-20 meters away from the rear of them going full speed will literally always end badly when they have to stop to shoot someone and then you ram into them right after because you didn't give yourself the clearance to stop, especially when in the case of the sherman he's following the direct path spook is taking rather than driving off to his side.

    Yeah, but remember USA has the strongest CAS in mid tier, as a Germany main that has the Do 335 B2, I would always prefer my F2G when playing USA, because I'm sure many other teammates will spawn CAS and they might help me, contrary to spawning a Do335 and having to deal with p47s, p51s, f2g, f4u, A2D, AM1, and so on. So it's kinda balanced that Germany has really good ground, but the enmy can wipe at least 3 tanks with pure ordnance per plane. I definitely prefer to play USA and use M18 and premium FW190 or P47s before my premium Tiger with Do335.

    Alongside your idea of being able to move crew members, we should also be able to choose what parts get repaired first if we so wish when youve got a long timer from multiple broken parts. Sitting there while everything somehow repairs at the same slow speed when all you need in that moment is for your track to just be done quick so you can get to cover, or your gun to be done first so you can kill the guy near you before needing to move, is the most infuriating thing sometimes. And it usually finds a way to work against me with my luck.

    I would bet the mk2 will go up to 6.7 even before the BP ends. Is british after all. Putting a BP or event vehicle at a low BR so people pay money to get it and then raising the BR is a classic at this point. The pt76 57 starting at 7.0 and the ebr at 4.3 were some of the most insane examples

Now when it comes to tanks, I know you don't like to play higher BRs, slow tanks or don't enjoy APDS, but I'd still like to see you play any variant of the Chieftain, since it's often overlooked, and the Chieftain Mk 3 is not that bad at 8.3, though it is the slowest one, since the Chieftain Mk 5 gets a slightly better engine. The Chieftain Mk 10 and the Khalid do get LRF and APFSDS at 9.0 and you get to choose between pretty decent Stillbrew armour or quite good mobility due to the Khalid getting the same engine as the Challengers.

    Yeah both Panther and Tiger mantlets are way too effective. Realistically, every time the mantlet gets penetrated it would weld the mantlet to the turret, blocking vertical traverse. Hence why the Cent Mk. 10 has a less vulnerable turret than the previous Cents, despite the older mantlets consisting of more armor. Later they went with a mantletness designs which reduced this from happening. It’s a general problem in WT that some armor arrangement are way too effective. Like some MG ports or driver vision ports 😑
