The Americans, the nation who invented the M3 Halftrack and the biggest user of the M3 Halftrack by far, still do not have access to their own equipment
I agree. It should be added ASAP.
I second this post.
Not only this, but it should be a tech tree vehicle
Yes its a shame.
But maybe DF could add the M5 halftrack as the event APC for the soviets again.
This way all the american fanbase can get to see this variant from up close and personal (if they play soviets) aswell.
No I want the M3 in the American TT
if they could get this one then i would be happy tbh
altho it wont be APC i will use this
Xylophone would be incredible for memeing on the enemy, but I still would rather have the M26 T99 for a rocket vehicle. I’d take both though
@Community Manager there been any words that the devs are considering adding either of these rocket vehicles? The Xylophone and M26 T99 that is
Everyone should get armored tech tree apcs. Still having no free m3 halftrack is such an shame
I’ve actually been meaning to make a post about this, but yes I 100% agree! There’s some interesting options too
America - M3A1 Halftrack
Same one the Soviets have as a premium, just move it as it is over to the Allied research tree. There’s no good reason why the Americans shouldn’t have such an iconic vehicle.
Germany - Sd. Kfz. 250/1
A shorter version of the Sd. Kfz. 251/1 that Germany unfortunately already has locked behind a paywall. It’s an iconic vehicle and should have a variant in the research tree. This one has less room for soldiers and you could give it an MG-34 on the roof instead of an MG-42, so the premium one still has an advantage.
USSR - T-20 Komsomolets
An armored tractor armed with a DT machine gun. Initially designed to tow artillery pieces, the Soviets would also use them in an unintended role as troop transport. More exposed than other APCs, but also smaller. Only the driver and gunner are really protected.
Japan - Type 1 - Ho-Ki
Not to be confused with the Type-1 Ho-Ha, this vehicle is the other APC most commonly used by the Imperial Japanese Army. Slightly larger and slower than its counterpart, the Type-1 Ho-Ki is a fully-tracked, open-top APC armed with a 7.7mm Type 92 machine gun (the same gun used in the MMG emplacement build by engineers).
Nah, we deserve better for this indignation
For the APC itself, we need moar daka
For more fun Low Tier armored vehicles, we have the rest
I’d definitely like to see the M3 GMC too, but I don’t expect it would be a research tree vehicle. More likely an event vehicle.
A mortar halftrack could be interesting, although I don’t know how useful it would be. I’d definitely try it out though.
The fact that so many weapons and vehicles in this game that are iconic are locked behind a pay wall or an event wall Is truly upsetting as well as very annoying.
Those damn Americans…Oh wait, I’m American … Never mind.
