Okay seriously, when is the T34 finally getting a armor nerf?
T34 frontal armor was easily penetrated by a Panzer IV, yet it can bounce Panther shots which is pure madness, but the fact that there is even the slightest of chance for a King Tiger shot to bounce is just simply “heresy” for every world war enthusiast.
Seriously the T34 is misrepresented beyond insanity in this game, and quite frankly the main reason why I stay away from eastern front campaigns.
Never
U think how this thing is made? It’s enriched Glorious Stalinium.
This thing is a meme since early War Thunder beta, so considering that the models are the same, it’s not going anywhere.
how can a dev team have possibly so little regard at representing arguably the most iconic ww2 tank correctly?
I just dont understand this, ever since Berlin launched this has been a huge problem, and funnily enough, they correctly decided to match the T34-85 together with the Panzer IV, as both were equally capable to penetrate each other first shot - which plot twist still doesn’t seem to be the case with the 7.5cm guns.
Dev are russian biased, we already know this, soviet equipment get only buff and buff, asking to nerf something russian is an heresy
Is a lost cause, [if i remind wen they buffed the knife keo showed knife damage and suprise! Russian knife do more damage than german and american]
THE BAYONET
Is a lost cause dude
wait wtf? seriously?
Yes
cant find any source, or melee stats in general, I need to confirm this, because that is quite frankly outrageously stupid. Would appreciate if you could confirm that.
…
Title feels kinda…
I know it’s inverted but sounds like this:
Joke aside, there’s a reason it bounces like this. Engagement distance is too small. Devs made it so that 100m =1000m irl (or something) which is why 88 shells can magically bounce from time to time.
The opposite can also be seen however. Take m4 Shermies in Normandy. At 100m, if they shot first, no way in heck would the shot bounce a pz4. Yet here we are…
You know that was basically a joke right, plus knife damage is the same for everyone, but stabbing from behind with ANY melee will do more damage
Plus it could’ve easily just been angling that keeps bouncing the man’s rounds
Nothing shows that russian knives do more damage, as if it’d do anything for that matter
Sry cant recall the topic and probably is buried after all this time or deleted, but i can recall the knife stats and soviet one do more damage at that time, 1y and more ago, i dont know if now the damage is equalized or not
You have ask cnvoult for more info
Oh yes my bad was their bayonet, now all bayonet do the same damage
Axis and allaies bayonet before do 15 and soviet 21
Next all bayonet was fixed to do 25
I’m surprised that the Lebel didn’t do more than all the others.
Those are basically f**** spears.
At least they equalized them, think even after tunisia a soviet knife on a gun dose more damage than the sword on smlmk3
I use swords to lead charges. My Italian named (gold) assaulter (thankfully came with perfect stats) is a real leader, speedy Gonzalez fast and always first of the whole team thanks to this sword 
wait, but why would the engagement distance being small be a problem to begin with, that only benefits the balance, because that way tanks like the Panther and KV tanks can still be taken out by lower tier tanks, how is that a bad thing?
But it makes sense now that you say it, tank armor changes its effective values so often, I stopped trying to understand the numbers… but the 100 meters being 1000m seems to be exactly fitting…
Devs likes soviets more. But shhh, it’s a secret.
The tank model is broken
there are many things that in War thunder just don’t happen but in this game they do, including the T34
in fact it also happens with the Tiger, in war thunder try to pierce the rear part of the turret a tiger with HE, it is not possible, but in this game it is
Yak 9T cant pen a tank
Bazookas, Panzerfausts and the mario bros launcher (japanese bazooka) dont have post-pen parameters
IS1 had a ‘‘Better armor’’ but only its a T34 whitout Armor bug, so its worst
BF 110 C-6 cant pen a british car of those that have wheels
is that the developer simply does not want to develop his game
