Not sure it’d work well if jumbo keeps mediocre ordnance.

Jumbo is a jumbo mistake devs brought in, but as the campaign is now, they cannot remove it without making things worse… unless if they brought a better sexy tank instead with less armour but much greater gun.

It should be that way, jumbo is op for being a lvl 20 unlock and makes any other tank after that not worth using. It’s like having the panther at lvl 20.

panther doesnt have AP rounds and a short 75mm :clown_face:

So you think jumbo is ok for lvl 20? It’s a fair match for the german counterpart at the same lvl, the panzer IV H?.
Let’s move the jumbo to lvl 31 and give him a better ammo type then, because clearly that tank doesn’t belong to lvl 20. And in practice, yes, its as unbalanced as it would be the panther if it was a lvl 20 unlock.

Yep I’ve seen people use M9 bazooka and M1 Thompson then jump in a jumbo. Jumbo is 100% used over all future tanks for the allies.

no please i can already immagine axis mains throwing tantrums bc they get OHK by a jumbo in their panther and tigers

and you think an m4a1 76 is ok for a level 36?





to me its seems axis have better tanks in basically all levels, and allies have 2 decent tanks jumbo and the m4a1 76, cry more.

btw rember that 60% of US tanks have AP, while axis get apc/apcbc on ALL its tanks.

I would prefer having Stuart over Puma (wheeled vehicles get their tires shredded within a minute into battle) and faster firing gun
Scott can deepfry Pz 3, 4J/H frontally
Sherman and IV J I can see it being unfair
then you get Jumbo against IV H :clown_face:
Panther against M10, arguable, but I would say unfair to allies too
and lastly Tiger against 76, decently balanced
All of this can be fixed by switching M10 with Jumbo, and giving both Jumbo and Sherman decent shells.

puma is still better it just require more skill

bc a pz III cant?

no

just dont cry when the jumbo actually gets OP and you get OHK by it bc you cant adjust the shot, oh yeah if they ever “fix” penetration values the pnather should go trough the jumbo like knife in a stick of butter.

So?

No, and i never said that.

i would said that are pretty even most of the time, tho axis have 2 times the same tank (pz j and h) For me, the problem starts in the high lvls, where there’s the most obvius imbalance, the m4a1 is indeed way worse than the tiger and that is actually one of my points ¿why people would use it if they already have the jumbo? let’s move the jumbo then.

crying because i want a more fair game no matter the faction? Ok, im not a german main so…
I can’t believe you can’t see how the jumbo is just in the wrong place, why would you use any other tank after unlock it? I don’t care if it needs an ammo buff, its just that right now having it in lvl 20 doesn’t have sence.
And yes, there are a lot of other tanks that don’t mach each other, devs do a shitty work and if you ask me i think we should wanna change it.

puma gets immobalised within a minute, if tires would get a hp buff, then yes

I’m saying it’s a decent tank, not because X can’t do the opposite

then I woud enjoy decently balanced fights, and no longer have grey zone campers who abuse the armour

ppl already complain with this anemic version of the jumbo, what will happen if it gets buffed?

yeah but its like this, jumbo level 20 ans m10/m4a1 vs panther and tigers

who are you trying to help? the axis or the allies? removing one of the two decent tank at level 31 doesnt sounds that compelling to me.

to balance things you sholuld remove the panther and the jumbo, there isnt another way.

this will never happen so leaving these 2 tanks at their current state its the best option balance wise

yeah until literally anything shoot in its general direction, rember? open top? commander exposed?

most player dont even know they have a 50 cal on their tanks

yeah surely a panther that can pierce a jumbo up to 200m will not grey zone, and a jumbo that can be pierced frontally will not camp in hull down position.

most players don’t have enough braincells to shoot commander out

I really want to see a match where machineguns aren’t being spammed

Panther can only pen jumbo at point blank range + Panther is 11 levels higher, remember?

Yes because the jumbo is frontally invulnerable and they only have the pz iv h to counter it. If gets buffed it would be at very high lvl so germans will have an equal tank to face it

And that’s what i (and a lot of other people) don’t like, and rather than accept it we should ask for a change

both of them. Axis is facing a top tier tank very soon, and many players have it. And the allies don’t have any other good tanks besides jumbo, and while I think it’s op against lvl < 31 tanks, it becomes useless against high lvl axis tanks, not because it can’t resist them, but because it can’t damage them.

Say it to the devs. I believe a 40 lvl campaigns is just not a good idea, but whatever

Not for me

right now with how some maps on normandy are, i would say keep jumbo right where it is but give the 4H track armor and give the m4a2 m61
