I don’t statpad, I just know that you are butthurt seeing as your beloved KV-1s will no longer have the 122mm D25t, and I can now eat you up with ARL 44′s 105mm with APCR even more easily, except now you won’t have much of a chance off getting through.

So aggressive, so insecure.

So unable to read the part which says heavy tank, starts fantasizing about his T49, shares it with us.

KV-1 is not OP, I have it. BDR is much better tank. Anyway, king of tier 5 is T49.

It looks more like the 76mm S-54. You know, the long 76mm gun on the T-34 and the KV-1S, or the stock gun on the SU-85. The 85mm S-31 doesn’t have the “hole” cut in the recoil system.

That said, I find it weird that they use the S-31 over the F-30. The two guns are identical down to the ammunition save for (I shit you not) one shoots slightly faster and the other gets 1mm more penetration with AP. They have the same accuracy and aiming time. Is this to keep people from being able to just jam the F-30 from the KV-1 onto it?

Also, what other guns will it have? I assume it would keep the S-54 76mm gun from its current form (that gun is balanced at Tier 5), and undoubtedly the stock gun would be the ZiS-5.

Does this mean the KV-1 will finally get the L-11 as well?

It can meet even tier II light tanks… whoaaa. It will rule tier V, that’s for sure.

Wow, you’re an idiot !

I eat kv1′s for breakfast in my wee t49.
Kv1s will be just the same, only he’ll be able to run away a little further before being destroyed and not bounce quite so many shells before turning to run.

The team that normally wins is the one with the better players as noobs drive “OP” tanks.

I refer to give 107 to the KV-85, not the KV-1s, yes i remember the SU-107 time but i remember a lot better KV-1/2 when you can smash tier 5 tanks alone and finish with 5 or more kills was normal…. you know, the team with more KV-1 win, the team with more KV-3 win, the team with more T29 win… old times.

No, the KV-1S gets nerfed and renamed KV-85, and a new vehicle named KV-1S gets introduced. The old KV-1S essentially stays, under a different name. Just like the Pz IV that became Pz IV Ausfuhrung H.

Comparing to VK3001H and VK3002M is stupid, they’re both completely different tanks. That was a replacement, this is a split. Splits don’t result in free tanks.
