Don't forget to fix soviet armor with the new update

Usually I keep complaining about T34s being at least 2 times as durable as they are supposed to be, however this time I will say that this patch, basically every Soviet Vehicle is massively overperforming.

Tho I haven’t gotten to play much of Stalingrad in general I remember fighting off KV 1 tanks when the campaign was new, and how they perform right now, and oh boy they are busted beyond imagination.

but whatever, its not like this is anything new, ever since they introduced Berlin it was clear that the armor balance has been thrown out the window.

But maybe this time the devs will finally have the balls to “base vehicles on their real life performance” instead of proving the existence and bias of Stalinium.

The Germans are overpowered. Fix it first.
And in reality, until the end of 1942, the Germans could not do anything with T34s and KVs without 8.8 flak. So, stop talking nonsense about “Stalinium”.

I agree!

The mp40 is OP! It does 0.1 more damage per bullet and isn’t impaired by heavy, cumbersome and bad overall drum magazine.

Let’s not even start with Moscow beretta. It’s unplayable against!

We only have weak Fedorov and AVS to compete…

In reality not every soviet tank in early war was t-34 and kv. Also in reality they couldn’t camp in some bs instant death area.

You can’t just take one thing and make it realistic. It often requires shit ton of other changes first.

True. But it was about T34s and KVs

Fixed
Rethink

I mean that it was about the T34 and the KV. Not about T60 or BT.
Also, i don’t understand at all why discuss realism and historicity in this game.

You are talking some bs my man.

You forgot the mp40 is so terribly op that developpers had the perfect idea to nerf the rate of fire on Stalingrad

And in reality, around 50% of destroyed T-34 by tank fire were caused by Panzer IIIs.

Panzer IV F2 struggles to pen both Tanks and bounces WAY too often, while also dealing pathetic damage.

Panzer III J1 should be more than capable at fighting off T34s, yet they suck pretty bad,

KV1 should in no way have better effective armor than T34s, yet they do.

all German tanks always blow up in one single hit, while Soviet tanks usually only loose 1 or 2 crew members

In reality the Panzer IV F2 has the much better gun, while the T34 has better armor - which should result in both tanks having equal “effective” fighting power, however if you ever played those vehicles you would instantaneously know which underperforms and which overperforms.

Only Pz.III Modifications M. (Ausf.M) could do this. But they were released 517 units.
T34 was released 35312. 50% - 17656.
So, 17656/517 = 34.
34 per one PZ. Nice count.

no, many of those T34 casualties were even caused by early Panzer III with their 37mm guns.

As for the game - I agree.
But it hurt me.

Can I see documents that support this?

you know… realism aside, If we talk 100% from a gameplay standpoint, we would want to see “balanced tanks” for both sides, yet then I would ask you why one side gets pathetic trash, while the other one gets OP stuff?

yes you can, there is something called google

As far as this is concerned, indeed.
But that goes for the whole game.
In Normandy, meeting stuarts against Tigers = nonsense.

yea normandy is pretty busted, however, I would argue that 76 shermans and the premium firefly should also have their penetration values fixed, they bounce too often as well.
