The IS4 would be just fine if they gave it slightly better mobility and gun depression of -8… the same as ST1. HP is fine and giving it even more is not the solution. If you look at the new ratings charts, IS4 is one of the most under performing tier 10 tanks, and driving it makes it feel like an underdog, far more than the IS7.

Yes, but ST-I’s armor is at 64 degrees when IS-4′s is at 60.

IS-4 frontal armour is at 61 degrees.

Only buffs I can imagine are mobility and maybe turret top buffs

I cant say really. Maybe you are right, maybe you are not. The hull was also made a little longer.

Turret was nerfed though. No one was shooting next to the mantlet anyway. Side armour can be fel though.

They should give it that 60 degree frontal armor, not 500 more HP, but more HP and maybe better mobility.

is3′s hull was the one that was on game before the change they did to so called historical adjusment
they only thing they did which is historical is the turret the hull mustn’t have been changed at all
why they bother going into this unessesary change on the hull??

agree, i sold my ST-I only to find out the IS-4 is tier 9 tank… they have no respect to Russian Tanks, they mess it up, IS-4 should be Invisible.

PS – it’s very good if you can side scrap, but still they should buff it’s frontal armor badly and give it 500 moar HP.

IS-3 has completely wrong lower plate angles compared to RL version. In game it’s retardedly sloped under extreme angle while in RL it wasn’t nowhere near as much as angled.

C’mon already, fix the IS-4, the ST-I has like 3-4 degrees better sloping on the UHP which makes about 20mm more effective armor on the ST-I. Also the ST-I doesn’t suffer from the weak turret top, and IS4 has that weak turret top along with the IS-3.

They are not inaccurate, they correspond to factory values.
