New Crew Skills and my Opinion

So I just watched QB's video on the new crew system and I have a complete opposite view point to him.

tl;dr:
– QB views every skill as mandatory, even when they only give a slight improvement
– Having more good perks makes high skill crews more worth the grind
– Every tank currently has the same skills/perks, the new system will add variety and personal preference to the game
– 3 Tanks per crew will make the grinding much easier

Basically as he is going through the list his opinion is that there are now too many good, or in his words "mandatory" skills that now mean that there are too many things differentiating tanks. To start off with many of the skills that he is saying are mandatory in my opinion just arent, the new sound detection reducing stun effect by 5%, is good dont get me wrong, but i would not say it is mandatory on all tanks, maybe on something like a Maus or E100 but not all tanks like he is saying, and the same goes for the new eagle eye.

Another part of his reasoning is that there is currently little to know difference between a 3 skill crew and a max skill crew and the new system means that there is now a difference. Is that not a bad thing? Getting a 3 skill crew requires 1.5 million xp whereas a 7 skill crew requires 26 million xp, should there not be a reward for putting in 17x more xp into a crew. And keep in mind, now that tanks will share crew getting xp will be easier because you no longer have to level 3 different crews for 3 different tanks.

Currently almost every crew in the game with 3 skills are the exact same:
– BIA
– Recon, Snapshot, Smooth ride, Intuition/Safe stowage
– Repairs / Camo
Finally having some variety between tank classes and their crew and even having some personal preference will be a good thing, allowing people to actually chose between a variety of good skills rather than leveling the exact same 3 (4 if a light tank).

Now QB has posted his video with a very negative view on the whole new system I hope that the community dosent change from what was a very positive view on the whole change to now a negative one, because the crew system has been in the game for as long as I can remember and hasn't really been change in all that time.
