Only played briefly, but my experience was:

1. Jeez the Panther fires slow for a tank with one of the first auto loaders.

2. Wow other people have the same complaint

3. Statement from the developers that they have used the reload times from a technical document written by the french after ww2, where they disassembled and tested a panther for the government

4. Hang on that panther specifcally had its autoloader removed, and was piloted by untrained people.

5. Located a locked thread with pages and pages of technical data, arguments about russian tank favoritism, and ultimately no change.

The devs bring it on themselves by being very much in love with russian hardware, and being very picky about their sources. They also participate in the conversation and that leads to people trying to prove they are wrong.



Panthers never had autoloaders


Gonna need you to prove that by leaking some classified documents. /s
