Overall, the tank is the same or better in several aspects. Which, by definition, means it’s BETTER, than the competition.

To be fair, the stats being compared are now going to change, so the 112 should fall into line with overall performance, so the tank may take hits to other areas, keep it’s pluses and we may see a case of “This is better at this, whereas the other is better at that”.

Which I whole-heartedly agree to, as if the tank was released with the planned stats, it’d be way too close to non-premium tanks to be fair.

The above post makes me think you don’t know of the fact that the Chinese tanks are generally the Russian tanks, only re-designed to be better and remove flaws.

The 112 can still sidescrape, the side armorisnt thin enough to cause an over match-auto pen, and it has the advantage of a solid frontal plate (instead of the shoulderpads the is6 gets) giving it another leg up, as the is6 shoulders give 90 degree angles while sidescraping.

You appear to be the ‘shitkid’, kid. WG agrees with everyone else’s assessment that its currently OP, hence the re-balancing for a later patch.

I’ll gladly elaborate on why we hate the 112. one of the major factors to this is that its a T10 tank chassis in T8 matchmaking. sure, its not “bad”, its like you said, weakspots and flaws in the armor. BUT here is the major factor for all hatred: HEAT. yes, the 300mm penetration will make swiss cheeze out of T10 tanks whereas its armor may even be able to bounce a few T10 shots. so yes, a good player will be better in a 112 than an IS6. imagine 3 of those rolling around in platoons spamming HEAT everywhere. that will make people want to play this game, hah. and yes, all accounts of it being “OP” in the ST are correct, its killing everything. so how bout you go wash your mouth before you kiss your mother goodnight, mkay?

The T-50 have been rebalanced into a regular t4 light with standard MM. This includes losing the 57 mm gun and the top engine having 300 hp
