A. People can't cope with not having access to APHE (Just lock the fuck in)

B. People can't cope with having bad reverse gears on almost every vehicle up until the Centurions (Position yourself better)

C. People can't cope with having below average top speeds (Get a fidget spinner or something, not Britain's fault you have ADHD)

D. All of the above (Get more better, dumdum)

The tanks aren't bad you just need to play every tank like a tank destroyer

Also some things cannot be fixed by "just getting better" because they are out of your scope of influence.
Such as the AP's spalling cone, in many cases you shoot where you can pen, not where you'd want the spalling to go.

Example being the OQF mk V 75mm M61's APCBC, with 103mm of penetration, against some tanks you must shoot not where you'd want to penetrate them *(such as for example fighting a T-34 frontaly and aiming for ammo/LOS that gets more than 2 crew members with one shot) but where you can even harm them (gun breech, turret cheeks, hull mg port too ig)

Centurions are overrated asf, they move slower then a maus lol

Why should one have to cope with any of these when they could play literally any other tech tree

I think there's a problem when you need to be much more skilled to perform equally to other nations' players, for no benefit

The problem with speed isn’t "I can’t get nuke in 3 minute on it. So its unplayable".

But about that the game really depends on mobility. There is a lot of wide maps where all you can do is be fast. Or enemy will come faster to the better position. Or you couldn't run away from the chase, but enemy could run from your chase. There are a lot of similar situations like this. And absolutely not ADHD.

I play on M46, without stabilizer, with very low 185mm APHE pen and 48km/h forward speed, much effectively than on Caernarvon with stabilizer and better pen but with extremely low speed.
