I love the look of this. I need to farm for my fv215b 183 before its all lost
The hardest part will be deciding if u want to part ways with the tortoise or just buy silver
I’m at the at15, I don’t plan to sell any of those. I’d rather sell a premium lol
But why don’t give people the option of grinding the Fv215b183 from the Conqueror for example? Now I think even some paying customers who don’t play often enough will not have the time to grind it…
Also, now WG cares about line consistency? What about the M-103 and the T110E5 who really don’t fit their line?
How does the M103 and E5 not fit their line, strong turret armor decent hull armor, and a good gun with average DPM… it’s the same from tier 7 upwards…
Do you happen to know if this is happening this coming patch as well as the replacement of the tier 10 heavy?
I would sincerely doubt it.
It isn’t in the PTS’s files, so does not appear to be replacing the FV215 183 yet
If we’re just getting wind of it now, we’ll probably see this next year.
But it is a good change.
1. A turret
2. Big alpha
3. A gun that can overmatch.
I have seen on other sites that it would be in 9.21 (late Decemberish) patch at the earliest.
This is SO WRONG! The FV215b 183 is an iconic TD in the game, and most like to play it and see it in game. Why would Wargaming take this very fun tank out of the game? People play WoT for fun….
because a supertortoise sounds a hell of a lot better than a copy of the JPE
The 183 doesn’t belong in the tree. Wargaming admitted it in a video saying how the change from tier 9 to 10 is the most drastic compared to all other TD branches. As I have 500+ games in the 183 it would be sad to see it go, but change is welcome.
If you already have the 215b or the 183 then you will be keeping them as they are being designated as reward tanks , they will stay in your garage and you will get the new tier X replacements as well . The 215b and 183 will just not be available in the tech tree again so DON’T SELL THEM as you will lose them for good 🙂
It doesn’t get out of the game sir. If you have it you keep it 😉 You get an extra tank for free 😉
This is the new “trend”, replace tanks, to “force” people into playing unpopular lines and premium tanks. New WoT’s paradigm. What never changes, it’s the “fuck the players” mind set.
the new trend “force” people to grind so players play more for credits, pay more often for golds, buy more often premiums tanks
If you Own the 183 you get to keep it
How come people use Tank Inspector even for releasing supertest leaks, but no one is interested in keeping the project alive.
But meh deathstar 😢
We now have the Deathbarn
You mean the ShitFarm ;). That’s his nickname 😉
Well now its called heshgasm because of the buffs
you get to keep it if you own it
The DPM of 3701 without rammer and BiA looks very impressive. I wonder if the armore profile is more effective than that of the Tortoise.
No one is taking away your deathstars (if you have them already!)
I kinda like the look of this 🙂
I don’t mind WG removing the tier 10 heavy FV215(b), since it never existed in the first place, but the Deathstar was a real project and is a very unique tank in the game. I’d hate to see it go.
Then get it. You have a massive head start
And don’t forget to buy lots of premium time! Kisly has a Cyprus office to feed!
This thing looks like love! I can not wait to have her. For all its fame, the 183 never the fit the line and was just a one trick pony.
That 3.7k dpm though.
Looks nice, but why does the russian 122mm gun on a tier 9 TD get 440 alpha dmg, but the 123mm gun on the british only 420 alpha dmg??
Same reason a Russian 130mm gun has the same damage as a 128mm German or a 105mm has the same as a 120mm
3701 DPM HELL FUCKIN YEAAAAAAH
SUPER TORTOISE
SUPER TORTOISE
it looks like the love child or a tortoise and a t95.
If that thing finds its way onto a ridge line it will be an absoloute beast by the look of it.
3,7k dpm -10 degrees gun dep 30 degrees traverse and very bouncy armour given the slope. On the flat however that armour looks pretty poor.
Selfishly I don’t care about the Fv’. I get to keep mine and this is another tank i will get…./leaves the building.
Poor armor on flat terrain? Only lower plate, everything else is more than 300mm with that angle. Im in love with that TD. Would trade for JT 12.8cm gun but this one its still pretty impresive.
Those values appeared to be effective armour. If so, the only part of the front that is 300mm is that band across the gun.
On the plus side it loses the AT-nn carbuncle on the top which is a big improvement in itself.
Loved Tortoise, would be happy to get Tortoise at tier X without the bigass weakspots on the frontal armor. This seems like magic. Unless it has bigass weakspot on the frontal armor. Which it will, because you can’t ask people to figure out the “going around thing”.
Those 2 300mm parts looked like an angry face with a long ass nose for the gun..
nearly 4.8k DPM possible
British with a 123mm gun?
123mm? Is that a typo, or a weird British measurement something-pounder gun?
I know they had a 60-pdr field piece, but that was a 120mm artillery cannon…
Is the gun legit, or another WoT invention for the sake of game balance and money-making?
it might be a placeholder
they made it up as far as I can see…the real gun:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordnance_QF_32-pounder
God’s I wish I had a gaming PC that way I’d actually witness balance and what looks like actual tanks not pathetic reskins
420 BLAZE IT!!!!!
I don’t get why they’re replacing fv215 and not this godawful fv4005…
Wargaming, I want some of your weed! I need to get carried away and forget how unbalanced the game has become! Please!
Become???
So, a better T110E3? 😀
Can I expect the deathstar to be replaced roughly around the end of the year?
This is called FV 217 not 205 i have seen this in many disscusions even dead arishi agrrees about this
yeah, I’ve been concerned too, FV205 was based from FV201 which was lead to the conqueror, FV217 was based from FV214 (Conqueror) which has literally no blueprints, just an index to be a self-propelled anti-tank gun on a conqueror platform, however in this case but the FV205 superstructure upon the FV214 Conqueror… WG better have a explanation…
though it may be understandable, the FV201 had armour 76.2mm on the hull and 152mm on the turret, if it was the ‘original’ FV205, then it would have poor engine power, less armour or probably more and armed with a 120mm gun, would probably be Tier VIII or IX.
Basically ” welcome t95 with speed “
