[QUOTE=Wiseman400;37485800]While playing today I kept thinking about something, what would happen if they gave the maus the jagdtigers 12.8?
I mean right now it seems like the one of the best ways to balance the maus with the other being more armor.
The rate of fire would be about the same as the other tier 10s, the accuracy would be good, good alpha and pen.[/QUOTE]
I pointed that out few weeks ago.
It would be sweet, but maybe it would fit E-100 with Kruppturm better.
[QUOTE=C0MMUNIZT;37485069]But the 50B is one of the most fun tanks in the game, so if you can deal with all the shitty tanks it will be worth it in the end.[/QUOTE]
That's basically why am I doing this, the last tiers' French heavies feel intriguing to me.
Maybe they should move the 150mm to Maus (during design IRL they actually considered 170mm) and give E-100 the JT 128. That would be plain amazing.

IIRC before 7.5 they said there were some "serious Maus buffs incoming" but we haven't seen anything of those, so
Victory!

What do you mean you didnt see any of those?
It got a massive 200+ health buff (russians heavies also got a health buff at the same time) and a super amazing 20mm+ to the turret armor. SUCH A+ BALANCE by wargaming.
Oh and had a amazing moment while playing my t-50 today, was down to 16 health trying to survive and hunt out arty and ran into a stug 3, ACTIVATE MAXIUM SWERVE while going woop woop, he bounced my front
A second later as I had to make a turn to avoid the stug I ran into a pzIV and did the same swerving
and wooping, he bounced my ass.
I then went on to kill the stug, both arties and seriously wound a bdr, great x5 win.

There are more things to do with balance than just dropping a tier and calling it a day.
I'd imagine they wouldn't have the long 88. Though the TigerPs ridiculous front armor might be a problem.

And the Ferdinand's. And if you work your way up both trees there's all sorts of shit that would destroy balance, even if balance could be argued to be shifted towards the Russians already, it's not as heavy as that tree would be with WoT in its current state.

Hell let me rephrase that: While balance might be a bit wonky and favoring Russians at middle tier in [I]some[/I] areas, it's NOWHERE near as ridiculous as that tree would be. And that tree while it gives the Germans a pretty big step up mid-tier, it absolutely annihilates all balance above it, a place where there's hardly any imbalance to begin with right now.
Armor that could deflect Tier 7-8 shells in tier 6 match.
Outstanding.
[QUOTE=Orkel;37481254]He said in the comments that that tech tree is what the dev team was "thinking of" or something along those lines. A might-have-been German tech tree that was scrapped.
Honestly some of that would have been much better. Tiger at T6 would have been a lot more balanced. WG could have buffed the Maus II to be something else than a glorified damage sponge that the current Maus is, and the normal Maus at T9 would have made it the proper armored brick that it is, not having to face tier 10 cannons with 300 pen every battle that render the armor advantage useless.[/QUOTE]
Tiger I balanced at tier 6? Its going to outclass everything and that poor M6...did anyone think about the little fridge?
[editline]1st September 2012[/editline]
Though I do suppose the Tiger II at tier 7 does somewhat make sense seeing the T29 was meant to counter it but the IS-3 which was also a counter to it (and not that much better of a counter) being a tier 8..
how are you people fucking against this?! these tanks are awesome at their tier, imagine them at t6. the tiger would be absolutely perfect at tier 6 with the 88 l/56. This is how heavy tanks should be. They should not have the best guns, that should be left to tank destroyers. I think it's bullshit that heavy tanks can do everything, it needs to be more team based.
If it were up to me, almost every heavy tank should have its second to best gun as the final gun.

Lets move the KV-1S down to tier 5. Since it's so good at tier 6 I can't imagine why it wouldn't be better at tier 5!
[editline]31st August 2012[/editline]
Although I agree on the second part. And in the instance with the Tiger I it may work dropping it down a tier but I [I]really[/I] don't think it would work for most of the rest of the tree. And a lot of people here will find conflict in the "second to best gun should be [I]the[/I] best gun it has", what with all the complaining everyone does here with the Maus/E-100 not being the perfect brawling tank.

Just died posting this because I alt tabbed in Himmelsdorf's spawn for 2 minutes and died to a PzIV that drove up to me as soon as I alt-tabbed in. Hit the same piece of wall 4 times in a row that occupied probably 10% of the entire reticle. Be right back, gonna go take a quarter and flip heads 15 times in a row.
i didn't say move the kv1s down a tier. the tiger isn't overpowered for its tier already. All heavy tanks should have a 40mm decrease in penetration across the board tbh.

I'm making fun of that particular piece of logic. Not all of us would like to see a tank moved down on the fact alone that it'd be better for anyone driving it. Really thought it KIND OF works for the Tiger but again, people apparently want their [I]German heavy tanks[/I] to be the ultimate tank destroyers around here so..
Victory!

How many kills? damn
I'm starting to hate the SU-152. If this thing doesn't get significantly better turn speed with the second suspension I'm going to sell it.
I love the Ram. It's so hard to have a bad game in it.
[QUOTE=don818;37488623]How many kills? damn[/QUOTE]
4 kills, but about 3.5 were really 'kills' and not 'had someone else shooting them too'
plus I had a fair amount of base cap
So I bought a Chaffee back with the dirty selling money of the VK4502A.
And then I decked it out. And then I used my T20 crew (zero interest in the American medium line at this time) to fill it up with a great crew. Then I retrained the perks so that they'd be at 100%, and have 60-80% perks. Then I gave it a rammer. And then a stablizer.
At this point, I realized I was out of money, so I gave it a test drive. With the 5x, I came back with 12k XP and even if I didn't have the double credit earning, I'd have made about 13k silver.
[b]Why in the fuck did I ever sell this thing.[/b]

How I got by was loading up the 75mm, spamming it while moving (it is fueled by magic and is more accurate on the move) and trying to get artillery. That's it. All the time. Never thought tactical, never went stealthy. I just scout-bombed the arty every time because it goes decently fast. :v:
