If the new T10 Med is the Vickers MBT, it isn’t going to be better, it will be straight out worse in every regard and the british medium line would effectively end at the Centurion 7/1.

I hope they’ll give the FV4202 as a free premium for whoever owns it (but only announce it right during the patch, when it’s too late to go for it). If they don’t, I hope they have the economic sense to actually give some sort of deal for those who already own an FV4202: New T10 Medium + Discount on Premium FV4202. I’d buy it instantly (and instantly sell the Vickers MBT, if they’d give me that piece of shit).

Converting XP is by far makes the most profit for Wargaming.

Best armor is on E 50M…

You are one of very few people that seem to like the tank. But its useless in organized play (all others can have SOME use) and dang, its completely uhnistorical for a real vehicle.
Fuck the Vickers. I dont know why SS wants it so much. Give us something that continues the Centurio line!

The only thing it would change would be the crew class. Having yet another sub-class you have to retraining crew for would change anything for the better? I can’t see it being fun for the british who would only have 2 mediums tanks before the MBT’s ( and before those 2 mediums only lights, crew training will be fun there ) Most medium tanks are compensated with more health when they are more heavy tank like already so they won’t get a bonus there either.

Whether FV4202 will be given “for free” as the T34 was ages ago (when it became a premium tank) is not known.

Due to several earlier statements this is rather impossible. IIRC even here one of developers was quoted saying that free T34 was an error and they will not make it again.

They can do this in two steps:
• I – replace FV4202 with Chieftain / Vickers MBT / Centurion Action X / whatever — just like they replaced T-50-2 with MT-25, without compensation;
• II – two or three patches later they can add of FV4202 as rebalanced and reworked in HD VIII tier Premium.

Well the fv is perfectly fine.. Id even consider it one of the better t10 meds and yes i nearly got them all.

What does it lack? Speed? Okay thats true but still speed is not everything.
Maybe turret armor too but well imo its better armored than the m48 or m60.
And on the beneficial side is the maybe best frontalarmor for a t10 med ingame + decent dpm, -10 deg gundepression and a nice hesh shell (who the f… needs heat?)

I WILL moan my 4202 if its gonna be replaced by some shitty vickers medium….
The last t10 swap also went for the worse imo too. T30 was such a capable T10 tank, id sell my type59 to get it back as it was!!

It’s not that problematic…

Tier 2 – Vickers 6-ton
Tier 3 – Tetrarch (With LJ Adaptor to justify tier up)
Tier 4 – Harry Hopkins
Tier 5 – FV301 (Could be swapped to the Tier 6 with AV-R brought into tier 5 instead though)
Tier 6 – AV-R
Tier 7 – TV-15000
Tier 8 – FV101 Scorpion

They all match up with their general surrounding light tank tiers for the most part for a full tree. The Tier 8 even has basically the same general layout as the AMX-13 90 just without the autoloader.

The thing is, that WG said alot over the years. Which means, i wouldn’t wonder if they give the FV out for free.

I doubt it will be given as a premium. Expect it to turn out like the t-50-2
