    I really hope it's going to be a premium tank. Looks quite capable of sidescraping and the gun is also a pretty good one for T7.

      Good for sidescraping. How the hell is this better at that from the standard Tiger ? You do realize Tiger has better frontal turret armor, right ? They both have same side hull armor, which is crap, so you gotta aim for that 70 degrees sweet spot. The rear turret helps but the weak frontal turret is a big weakness so NO, it is not so good at sidescraping.

      All things being equal, rear-turret tanks make better side scrapers, can't hit their lower plate.

    It looks great. WG doing a fantastic job, as usual. Now, why not nerf fv215b similarly when its eventually replaced (no rush on this).

      Because the FV215b is fake. WG is, slowly, removing "fictional" tanks from the game. WT E-100 and the T28 are on the chopping block too. The T28P should be, but IDK if WG ever found a replacement for it.

      The T28 and T28P are both fake

      T28 + extra pair of tracks = T95 (IRL)
      they historically have same armour as the designers added the tracks to support the weight for it to run on paved roads without breaking it

    6. Rich Vail5 April 2015 at 02:27

      The T28 is in fact the original designation of the T95. The difference is that it is missing the 2nd set of tracks that were installed when it was ready for combat. So, in short, the T28 is real, its just missing the a set of tracks and is the vehicles configuration for transport.

      Extremely doubtful. WG isn't very big on giving away free premiums above tier 3.

      You'll likely only get ProtoMaus instead

      I get the impression it's a "new" vehicle, not a rebalance of existing one (like T34 was). And it might not come with the same patch that replaces current VK4502B.

      Also, developers many times stated "no more free T34s".

      Delete
    4. Rich Vail5 April 2015 at 02:29

      Indeed. Word is that when the FV4202 moved to T8 as a premium, if you currently have it in your garage, you will have to complete a mission to get it "free".

    And here I though there couldn't possibly be a worse german T7 heavy than Tiger, and WG surprises me.

      > Implying current tiger is bad.
      Whoaaa man, be careful of what you say there. Not able to use 1500 HP and dem long 88 pen/rof/acc combo is a clear showcase of your current skill.

      Sorry to tell you that you are terrible at the game, but Tiger is currently second best tier 7 heavy.

    3. Unknown4 April 2015 at 08:42

      Tiger is not a heavy tank, it's a turreted td or a very slow med, but not a heavy.

      but this thing is not the tiger, this thing is far more like the tiger p what is a pos.
      has no armor like the tiger plus much weak gun and mobility statts.

      Wow, saying such a thing about best tier VII heavy... If I'm not mistaken it can 1 on 1 every tier VII tank, and only tank that can outdpm it is SU-122-44 (but Tiger has much more HP).

      Stefan S,
      Let's assume that we are talking about pre-BUFF Tiger I and you are saying that it was worse than AMX M4 1945?
      Let's assume that we are talking about post-BUFF Tiger i, are you kidding me? It is like the best HT-7 with T29 both at the 1st place.

      A great tank?

      The fantasy stats were pulled out of someones ass at wargaming coated with the sweat of desperation to make something to "fit" the tier.

      80mm frontal armour buffed to 200mm upper and LOWER plate takes the piss and it needs to be chucked back with the tanks it was truly comparable to. Like the Tiger.

      ...
      P 8.8 is a freaking awsome tank, i tried in the test server and that gun with those awsome stats make the tank worth every gold, the mobility is enough to make it work.

    One of the biggest BS move from the WG.
    And this is show how f*cked up the game is.

    This tank armor is useless even in t6!!
    have a great gun, but the non-existent mobility is just make the tank absolutely pointless.

    This tank with the historical armor setup is a t5 heavy material with a t8 gun.
    fun fact this is a weaker arl44, what is a t6 heavy.
    the frontal armor is lot weaker than the arl44 and even the turret is much weaker and i guess everybode know how strong is the arl44 turret:D
    but this turret not only 10mm less, but far bigger what is means the gun shield is cover far less than the arl44 turret.

    German tanks without overbuff just simply can't really working in the game.

    just look on the 2 tiger in t7, if we only look the historical versions they has no armor,no mobility and speed with a weak gun.
    with the historical setups even in t6 they are nothing more just free foods for the more competetive heavies and td's.

    and most of the high tier german tank in the same shoes.

      Implying that Tiger with a short 8,8 and less HP would rip apart most tanks on tier VI...

      Delete
    2. Unknown5 April 2015 at 15:33

      rip apart?
      t150?,e8 turret or e2 front?,arl44 front?

      just some of the biggest armor threat in t6.

      the bdr is get a 3mm more pen in t5, kv1 ,churchil I,vk3001h has far better pen in t5 and all of this are heavy tank.
      the 88 l/56 is actualy a good t5 heavy gun or maybe a t6 medium, but not a t6 heavy

  13. Unknown4 April 2015 at 11:24

    i think it needs more HP and a much higher RoF to be decent to fight tier 9s when keeping its historical setup
