Well you can see that if you’re clearly being shot in the tracks (watch the red outline on the .png) it damages, while there’s no hull behind it. also it’s side is bugged, it doesn’t matter at what angle your being shot at in the side, it pens. seriously.

Yes it is.

If you have 0 armor you’ll get shot to crap from any kind of HE, especially from under the tank. It happens quite often that you get a shell from underneath from arty. Other tanks can also quite easily shoot you there for extreme damage. Overall if you’re sniping it shouldn’t be a problem.

But it’s still about the principle, things like this shouldn’t happen. It should never get released in a patch. Stop trying to defend WG, this is a fail that a two year old could basically have fixed.

Well, i checked all other models and nothing else seems to be as broken as this.

I wouldn’t be too quick to judge on this one. Bugs appear all the time in games and collision boxes are actually also 3D models (very very low poly) that are imported with the main tank model. So if the model imported into the engine wrong, it can mess things up. So let’s say they imported the collision model but the bottom of the tank got corrupted and didn’t import in (wargaming tank models are modeled weird so it’s possible) so when they go to put the values in, they thing that part of the tank is there so they put in a value for it but because the model isn’t actually there, then there was nothing for a value to get assigned to. I was working in unreal the other day and my friend gave me a house he modeled and I imported it in to the engine and it exploded. Parts of the model folded over each other and other parts were missing. The textures were all messed up and it was just broken. Engines can be a pain in the ass sometimes. And hell bugs can happen too. I was once modding minecraft and my newest edition, emerald ore (this was before emerald was officially in the game) dropped sapphire gems. Turns out I forgot to change a number from 1 to 2 in the id.

The tracks do actually cover the front of the hull IRL. So not really a glitch.

This only makes me happy that I haven’t installed 9.0 yet!

It’s true. As a game, it’s really quite terrible. Playable, but terrible. as you play it more you do grow to ignore and overlook quite a few things, but that doesn’t mean the issues don’t exist.
