    As if the Lorry needs to be replaced? It’s just the same situation as the Aufkl Panther, too many people lacking the ability to learn how to play it, so they start to whine for a replacement. Same goes with the new big gun on the SU-101.

      But SU-101 had that 122mm on the start… then they took it to that tank, then they gave it back… what the problem? I just think, they just adding new OP tanks to the game and not ballancing the old ones… 1390 is unchanged from being announced in the game, but after the time, Ru and T-54l came, and nothing were done to ballance T8 lights. Both american T7 lights are much better then 1390. And then there comes whiners about “I just buyed this super stronk tenk and I was killed by a f…. autoloader, delete it pls pls pls”… Its like having diamond on rusty chain…

    Wargaming really needs to stop replacing tanks I’ve come to know and love. You’re isolating your fanbase when you remove tanks simply because you can, not because they’re OP or some other nonsense.

      Nothing out of the ordinary. Autoloaders aim slower than they reload, the exception is bat chat 155 58, which aim and reloads for 5 s

        And the skoda T50. Also aimtime isn’t exactly how fast it takes to aim in from full dispersion, its how long it takes for the reticle to reduce to 1/3 of it’s size

    This is terrible as a start. WarGaming has given this tank the same bad aim time as the AMX 13 90 (3 seconds) so you have to pause between shots to fire accurately. Then they gave this tank WORSE dispersion (.40 versus AMX 13 90’s .38 and .35 for the 40t). Couple that with only 380 meters view range versus 400 for the 13 90 and 40t. I don’t know about others, but if they replace my 40t with this, I won’t be playing it (not that I fight my 13 90 or 40t much either).

    What I would prefer WarGaming to do for the French line is introduce a proper heavy tank – something I can use my skilled FCM 40t crew in.

    If they bring this tank as replacement for the lorraine 40t I realy start to loose confidence in WG. Replacing a rather weak tank with a totally terrible tank. Great idea WG. They have hired bad staff that obviously never playes the game.
    In patch 9.14 they nerfed the effective frontal armor of the centurion 7/1 by over 20mm without any notification btw. Well done, cripling a good and balanced tank.

      The premium pen is the same as the T54E1s, but the AP pen is 10mm worse, the time between shots the same, aimtime about the same, and less alpha.

      Leopard PTA has 268 pen standard on it’s 105. It’s not unusual to see mediums and heavies with that amount of pen. grow up.

  5. 3 second aim time? I can see 2.5 or something. 0.40 accuracy is fully understandable because it’s a French medium. But, 3 seconds aim time, that is a complete joke. I’m sure these aren’t the final statistics yet… please… PLEASE!
