Not to mention the 263 and the awesome open top it has. If arty sneezes in your general direction, you’ll be pushing up daisies.

This right here.
268 OP…not likely, remember it has crappy gun traverse angles, it needs to reset it’s aim and cammo quite often if it wants to hit something. Also, the armor? I’ve snapshot the damned thing to oblivion quite often, can’t really believe I’m THAT lucky that every shot fired in desperation went through.

Now let’s talk about the FOCH. Armor side, yeah…it has weakspots, if those weakspots don’t ding as fuck. Had 5 shots from the T28 Prot(248mm pen) ding off the damned viewing device.
As for mobility? Try to circle that thing in a medium…unless you put one in his tracks, he’s gonna pivot faster than you can circle.

And the cannon? Standard MO: go in point blank as you won’t be killed, nothing does that much dmg that fast to you if and only if the target doesn’t ding you(and sure as fuck it will), derp him 3x 850 (on average) shots to the face in 10 seconds(i.e. before a damn OBJ 268 has even the chance to reload a 2nd shot!), turn tail and run or back away and scoot.

Indeed. If you look at the population, more people own and play the 268 than the Maus on the RU server.

i read nothing about flipping tanks ;)
but didn’t it say in patchnotes that the ammorack physics would be changed, i hope turret pops off ;P
and lets not forget the ability to destroy objects and hit them with the first AP or APCR rounds instead of a picketfence stopping a AP shells cold in its tracks.

Agreed. Owerlord has no idea what he is talking about.

The ROF may be high but it is gets outplayed by the alpha TDs. Maybe once WG nerfs their 850 alpha to 750, maybe. And the lower glacis causes engine damage and fire. One way Soviet tank players can feel how German players get to feel.

Furthermore, to get the 263, you have to play a line of mediocre vehicles. They are nice to play but they can’t carry like other tanks.

That’s true Indeed. Maus players either have to be good to play it or they are bad and they sell it instantly, because it’s unplayable for them.
