Dont really think the killing t-34 ever was the problem.
Hell you can even call the user of t-34 and politely ask him exit hes tank so you can stab him in the face.
Theres countless way to deal with it.
Problem is the tank play is absolute shitshow, only one faction is required to “flank” and do what ever the fk maneuvers to deal with the other faction.
Which decreases the fun factor quite a massively.
Bright side here is that anyone actually considering J1 vs t-34 as “fun” you can still continue to do so regardless the F2 was added.
Hell you can even take step further in fun mode and go with pz2.
I can quote a couple people who want IS-3 and anime skins.
Doesn’t mean they have funcitoning brains.
But as I said, once T-34 was added, the writing of German time travelling was on the wall.
sure I dont mind, hard to imagine couple anime skins would make this game any worse than it has been past year.
IS-3 ? Sure I think leopard 2a7 is suitable counter for it.
Quite irrelevant as balance > what ever the fk you want as they definitely aint going to remove already added stuff.
Soviets has been pampered entire last year especiatly in moscow so F2 in name of balance is quite fking minimal.
I’m unfortunately not, I have plenty of experience using both vehicles against T34s and yes while an improvement. It is not that substantial and still requires the user to aim their shot correctly
I just tested it in editor. It is easily penetrated, not much aim is required. Besides that, Many people complain about panzer 3j1 can’t properly pen t34, but rarely have people complaining panzer 4 f2 can’t pen t34.
Hopefully this will help further emphasize my point. In the testing grounds I fired 8 rounds at the frontal armor of this T34 at a slight angle as you can see 3 went through the armor and 5 did not.
Now in game a decent T34 player will present his armor at an angle either similar to this or more exaggerated and based on the shells I fired across the hull I could have a 37.5% chance of punching through the hull armor first shot.
Now obviously that number is not accurate it’s just a rough representation of what I’m trying to get across that while yes the 75mm gun can punch through the frontal armor of a T34s hull a half decent T34 player makes this difficult to do and so German tankers should often end up aiming for the T34 turrets anyway.
We’ve also already established that the turret is a weak point for both the 50mm and 75mm guns so I did not address that here.
Just to quickly touch on this briefly, I am not denying that many people did bring this up that is absolutely true however again while I hate saying it that is a skill issue about players not knowing the strengths and weaknesses of their vehicles and how to use them properly.
