As for Sherman 2 and m4a1 the US one is round and the British one looks even rounder.
except… you can skip it.
as it’s in the folder. ( allegedly )

They are basically the same.
The only real diffetence is the factory shield instead of other improvised safety measures.
The main reason was to get rid of gas mask. The shield supposedly protect from gases and so, it wasn’t intended as protection against bullets.

well yeah.
that’s why some people want it.
no goofy mask ( that clips through lower helmets such as the para one ) or gloves.
we would like the shield version.
it’s also more appealing.
which… it’s also in the game already 
plus, there’s a new version of it too now that i look upon it.
never saw the rpzb-54

Well, in terms of style, it’s completely different. With a shield, it is much more beauty.

I just saw it here:
Notice how on minute 24:00 the player chooses the premium paratrooper squad, equipped with PPS-42s (in a BR1-3 battle) and gets a DT-29 (BR4) from the crate.

Right now I need to research 3-4 US tanks before they let me purchase the 76 mm Sherman.
And after this update I will need to research 6-7 tanks, it seems.
Unless all added vehicles are subfolders, it just prolongs the grind you can’t skip.
You can always skip it with money.

yep fact
I hope they let you purchase the researched vehicle/weapon instead of requiring you to research everything before that.
I can understand getting the squad required for operating the vehicle.
Well, at least the guys(I guess from russian part as I remember) were able to push through its addition, as an necessary element of equipment for ofenhorer (which in the end is a good detail).
Hopefully, but they have been avaliable for the US and Ussr have had 100 round Mgs for a long time now, and it isn’t that hard to just make a belt fed MG42

It’s really insane.
I mean, at least id I have the unlock before and after, let me buy the thing inthe middle.
I was a couple matches away from buying Normandy Panther A and now I need to research a dozen of useless Tunisian tanks before it, even though I have all the Tiger 1 and 2s.
I cursed the other side of the Russian forum I saw something like this already and it actually came true

But it’s most likely going to be in a folder with the other Shermans and therefore wouldn’t increase the grind. So that doesn’t make sense.
For Veteran players like myself who will already have the whole tech tree unlocked minus a few planes or new tanks this doesn’t increase the grind and provides zero value.
Please at an official mod explain the purpose/difference or advantage to using this new Sherman.
