Okay.. but there is no auto-pen mechanic, there is only auto-bounce and overmatch.

How can be meds OP? With 400 alpha? Its not like you peek out of the corner and you dead by 2-3 shots, like from T10 TD´s….

Look at random. Every tomato has T10 TD and camps in bush out of line of sight waiting for easy damage. And considerably more games ends with draws now. Because of TD´s. Same thing that was with arty before. Easy damage, not risking anything, not being visible – camp and wait for them to come – thats what every tomato longs for.

Have you seen tomatoes in meds? They die first so they dont like it….

Nerfing TDs is a right thing to do to reduce camp. Same like with arty before.

This game has proven there are always plenty of muppets, I mean the NA server even has a clan named after them.

Keep giving your money to WG, who couldn’t give a damn about any of their customers, ever.

Lol defend the erra of TDs, I think there are less TDs now these last 1-2 months. But I see more medium tanks with gold ammo though, so expect the new overpopulation will consist of mediums once all TDs in all tiers are nerfed.

Personly I will be very sad if they nerf all TDs because my lovely ferdinend will get messed up, and I have 3200 games in it and reached 6 skill crew. Its not really fair, even though I play heavy tanks now. I dont like the idea to force people to play certan classes. If I know WG right, they will possible buff medium tenks because som ppl are claiming they underperform, just so they can make more people grind them and then nerf again.

The thing is, mediums and autloaders are not present enough to make people whine. People surely didnt whine nearly as much when TDs were less. Expect people to start whining when TD players start playing medums and autloaders, which in tier 9 and 10 and with gold ammo goes thru heavys like easy. Too many of a kind is never good, not even with heavys like many people believe. In tier 8 which I play alot, there are not even close as many TDs as it were 1-2 months ago. And hence I find it stupid if WG makes a class wide nerf. But then again tier 10 TD players will probably start playing lower tiers again and an increase in TDs will be current.

Theres no easy way to balance this as long as people assume “X” amount of tanks are “too” much. What if some idiots suddenly would complain about too many Tiger II tanks, will WG nerf them as well, despite low global WR?

Since tier 10 TDs and also possible all other TDs will get nerfed, its the same fuking thing as with artys, nothing to do with WR, but with the so called game balance. We can alreaddy now guess what will happen when TD class gets nerfed. I bet my balls that autloaders and mediums will be the new whine objects, and they should because now, with less TDs or possible no TDs at all, mediums can mess around autloading gold ammo in the open and harass heavys.

I was in the middle of my grind, ive achieved and maxed the tier 8 amx ac 48 with the tier 9 foch gun (which is tier 10). I have a is7 that ever since the German td line came out is totally worthless now and gets ripped to shreds. so I decided to hunt down the foch line I almost made it and there going to nerf it… screw that crap. I was going to get it to defend myself better against this new “era” of td’s but if there going to nerf it screw it ill go back to grinding the fv2404 no idea how good of tank that is. but they cant nerf junk I suppose.

Just get yourself this WT100 and talk again.
I simply love to feed on them with my Leo. HE Shells always pen the sides of his non existens turret armor leaving the gun crippled ALWAYS. Try to hit something with gun AND gunner out at least 3 times A MATCH!.

WT 100 and Foch 155 were/are not OP unless u drive blindly into their gun.
Those Obj 268 spams are much more pain in the ass, cause this DPM together with insane pen AND accu of this shit is ridiculous.

I kinda agree. armour nerfs on its own would have been ok OR the alpha nerf, not both. That’s just overkill and will ensure that we’ll likely see a rollback on some of those nerfs.

Be glad they haven’t nerfed the frontal turret armour of the T29/T34/T30 tanks. Chieftain did armour measurements of the the mantlet and had posted the findings, and it was less than what it is in-game.
