Mark my words, since we have Tiger II H now, nothing stands in the way for IS 3 to be added

What the wiki does not say is that the BR-471B has much better angle pen than the standard BR-471.

Yeah. Its in general bad that the devs ramdonly decide which tanks get additional armor or not. I get it with premium and maybe gold orders but e.g. we have three free F2 but only the one in Moscow has track armor. Or that the IS2 1944 has free anti-Faust armor but the T-34-85 has none but has a premium brother (only cosmetic-related as the armor is basically useless anyway).

But player modifaction is apparently bad because of future br.

This is mainly because the developers uses asset that are from war thunder. They never modify them. In war thunder the II H always have tracks on the side of the turret, thus they cannot change it. For the F2 it has an ingame modification to equip armour addon in the form of the additional tracks, this is why there are two different models. The dev don’t modify this assets by themselves (except premium Stuart and Jumbo but this is only cosmetic I think)

Iirc most tanks have additional armor as modifcation you research on

Yeah, but Germany got additional tracks as an armor, while new IS-2 (1944) looks like a built on a scrapyard.

Yeah man do that, and let see if you are comfortable in a soviet tank or in a german tank

IS 2 has fish net in their turret side too

thats like wanting the panzer 4 to destroy is2s

Russian tanks are strong in turret, german tanks are stronger in hull (less usefull part since tanks use to be behind some cover most of times, except if they are rushing in open like dumbs, but who does that deserve be destroyed.) The russian tanks can one shot any german tank, the panther can penetrate a lot of stuff but if you shoot the side of a t34 in ammo most of times it will just be yellow, in fact are very few spots where a panther can one shot you, the tiger 2 porsche is a piece of crap with a terrible zoom and the 34 ricochet his shot in upper hull and turret a lot of times.

Pz 4 can pen all tanks in some spots but is penetrated by all of then anywhere panther you can kill basicaly anywhere with is2 panther can penetrate tanks in specific spots, tiger 2 can be penetrated anywhere in trurret the P by any soviet tank, the H by the is2 and it have specific spots to shoot on any soviet tank.

The soviet is the easiest faction to play in this game, berlin is the only campaing that tanks are balanced, stalingrad t34 with adicional armor s and kv1s against who you need to shoot on specific spots against pz 3 and 4 that you can shoot anywhere, and i’m not gonna even talk about moscow where the best tank you can get is a p4 f2 that dies on anywhere

And i don’t forgot the jumbo, mainly the premium one who can kill any german tank almost anywhere and just die in a tiny specific spots…

loosing tank battles as allies factions is mostly skill insue than equipment insue

I hope that is3 never comes, and if comes who they bring maus with then

Next tanks in Berlin will be a premium pack or for gold → ISU-152 and Jagdtiger.

Reload time - 21 s for ISU-152 and 18 s for Jagdtiger. Jagdtiger at least has 3000 MG ammo.

No thanks.

It has been already decided. Like it or not those tanks will be here.

Tbf, if IS3 is added, nothing stop the MAUS and E100 shows up, and yes there was 2 working Maus and 1 E100 disassembled, also a lots of german prototype weapons since adding prototype weapon in this game seems normal

And IS3 won’t solve your skill issue specially when it still using the same 122mm the IS2 use, while the MAUS use 128mm(single piece reload) and E100(128mm or 150mm also single piece reload)

Jagdtiger would be pure insanity, its impossible to balance that thing without pulling of some cold war nonsense counterparts.

ISU 152 is already no problem balance wise and would fit well into the game.

Also there was a dushka MG mount for the ISU if I’m not mistaken - which could give us a nice reason to overhaul SPG’s and tankhunters like Stugs to also add top mounted MGs.

I dont feel quite the same. Would still be fodder for all the usual infantry AT methods and bombs, while having an insanely long reload, poor mobility and fixed guns. very limited use against infantry and poor kill per minute potential.

In enlisted I generally rate a tank by its anti infantry capability. The bigger, the heavier and the longer the reload, the worse it gets. (generally). The same reason I still take 75mm short over 75 long, or 88s etc etc.

Sure, would suck to be an opposing tanker…but thats about it.
