Pretty sure it is. In the training grounds you can shoot straight through some of the lower BR tanks and hit the one behind it
So apcs wouldnt detonate the shells

No.
Honestly Is2 1944 is great. It CAN go toe yo toe vs king tiger, and easily. You just need more smarts.
Use cover. Is2 1944 got the best, fastest reverse speed of all heavy tanks in game. It negates it’s long reloading time issue entirely (shoot, immediately get back in cover) which means king tiger, even with better reloading speed WON’T SHOOT YOU MORE OFTEN.
The 122 is shooting mini nukes, too. If it pens anything, then the anything becomes fireball.
Those who keep whining about Is2 1944 only want it to have all the advantages of kt(h). Without it’s flaws.

IS 2 is definitely worse than Tiger 2 H. Worse pene, worse armor, worse versatility.
But I don’t think buffing it is what we need.
Soviets should just get another tanks.
Some examples: T-44 (prototype/early) , T34-100, IS-100 (object 245/object 248), IS-3 (prototype/early), KV-4 (object 224), KV-5 (Object 225)

I really don’t think they “need” anything. Their small arms tech tree became a meme because they “had” to have better, or at minimum, on par tools as their opponents.
Is it THAT horrible if for once, Sovs don’t have the very best thing as usual 
I’d go with more planes first. They’re not needed either, but at least there would be a high br choice.

I think they do need another tank. Because if IS-2 doesn’t go well with your playstyle. Your second best option is just classic T-34/85. And I don’t think that’s enough.
But you are right about planes as well. They just lack variety and options.
Btw. What they really didn’t need was KV-1 on BR4. :PP

Only reason why kv 1 zis 5 is in br 4 is because it would otherwise face t1 tanks. If they fixed the matchmaking there should be no problem

Mmmh I don’t know about tanks. They’re great already but I indeed use them a bit more smartly than the regular Enlisted player…
Ofc Is2 1944, even if great, is not as versatile as KT.
But I like the asymmetry of it.
A bit like Japan. Their only high br tank… is just a TD. Best td in game, but just a td still… (their br 4 tank really should be br 3).
What Japan is powerful at, is air supremacy. It makes a very interesting dynamic with usa that got good tanks, doom CAS, but less potent fighters.
I just don’t want Sovs to continue their meme like trend of absolutely needing better or on par everything. Turns them into a joke, albeit a powerful one
Yeah, but BR5 Japan is on live server for just one week. Not really fair to make such comparison.
Japan should definitely get another tank option for BR5 in future, O-I would be most reasonable I guess.
What other tank would you propose? They pretty much have the counterparts to all the high tier tanks already
Unless you go backwards to kv 85 and what not, but that wont help high tier, ISU 152 opens door to elephant and jagtiger…and IS 3 never saw combat

What do mean? Not counting these?
As long as it is ww2 prototype, I don’t care. I would rather have new content made of ww2 prototypes than new post war BRs.
Well i guess everyone will be asking for maus, tiger 2 105s and panther 2s next.
What of when jets are brought into question? Everyone but soviets would have them.

Well, Maus would be pretty bad in Enlisted. And if it was added, I think it should be limited to some sort of time-limited event outside of the nomal queue that would be repeated periodically.
The Panther II is basically a Ho-Ri level vehicle in terms of historical accuracy.
I’d prefer the Panther F, especially since it was already in the game.
Prototypes which weren’t used in combat became inevitable even for war thunder. Even though their policy back then was completely different.
I think it would be really shame to rush non ww2 content instead.
Id rather focus on the rest of the “actually used” stuff before prototyping too heavily (tech tree…premium is okay). Including subfactions.
Thats just me

Yeah, sure. Me too. But not if they’re as irrelevant as new KV is.
We need better balance/variety first. Especially for end game BRs.

Come on yeah that’s a great idea let’s have more prototypes and open the door for Germany as well
Yep, feels like laziness combined with incompetency. Completely irrelevant content.
And ideas like this which are gonna make my post more relevant so thank you I guess
Alternate history - Mess Room - Enlisted
Open the gates to insanity and let’s burn the game to the ground
Which one IS-2? 1944 or Regular? With 122mm cannon You can destroy APCs using HE Shell, you can easily penetrate Panther frontally (If you using IS-1944) and sometimes if you’re lucky enough you can penetrate lower hull of both Tiger II using APHEBC Shell, about the Armor you can just angled your Tank (Or hiding behind the destroyed properties Tanks)
