I think all tanks should have pref MM.

E 75 should more then often get into tier 10 games.
The IS-1 should never enter tier 9 games.
Almost all tier 8 mediums should almost to never enter tier 10 games.
(175 pen and 250 dmg in tier X.. no whay)
And tier 9 and 10 mediums should almost to never enter tier 8 games.
(260 pen and 390 dmg in tier VIII… no way)

Almost all tanks should have its own pref MM.

Scrap the WT E-100 as is was barely a blueprint. Move the Rhm to tier 9 and WT auf 4 to tier 10. And make the Waffenträger 8.8cm (that is currently a tier 7 prem proposal) a tier 8.
The Kanonenjgdpz. would be a nice tier 7 prem instead of the WT 8.8
The Kanonenjgdpz. has a chassi like the jagdpz auf 4. Fast and good camo value. And a good 90mm gun that in the game can have the same stats as the Indien Pz.

And what is the problem with the T-62 115m smoothbore gun?
The STB-1 Japanese tank is from the 70′s… And the Leopard 1 is from 1965.
The T-62 is from 1961…
The Chinese WZ-120 has a 122mm gun so why not have a Soviet 115mm?
100mm = 320 dmg
105mm = 390 dmg
122mm = 440 dmg
So the 115mm = 410-420 dmg?

The T-62A was retrofitted with the 115mm gun.

Are u talking about WoT? I think u are talking about wrong game

“But tier 8 mediums are not supposed to be the deciding factor in tier 10 battles in the first place. They are relegated to second-line fire support and defense”
And they are not even slightly deciding factor, atleast most of them, and thats where problem is…and idk what kind of suport are u talking about with this kind of maps where fight hapents in 50x50m corridors where 3 tanks have problem to fit next to each other, suport with gun that shoot potatos on 200mm armour……thats not how i want to play meds

“And even so, there are situations where a single tier 8 tank can carry a tier 10 team to victory with the correct conditions and playstyle”
Yes in every 50 games there is one like that

All what u say is ok, only it doesent fit in wot with this playerbase and maps where matches are usualy over in 4 min average

Have you played game before? I did since 8.3, I can assure you battles ended 15-5 in 5 minutes on half of maps. Arty had no OP guns? I played grille, it was possible to one shot KV1S and it was so accurate that only thing that prevented you from killing 1/3 of enemy team on steppes was competition with other arties.

I feel I can influence tier 8 battle with tier 6 med, tier 7 battle with tier 5 med as you can scout and play as opportunist. Tier 7 and 8 meds? You can’t no longer scout, teams are not completely stupid, any tier 9 med can do the same as you but it is twice more effective.
Only good tier 8 medium is CentI imho, T-44 was also fine due to speed. PantherII – i decided to grind Leo1 instead of E50M cause of this PoS, more or less TigerI with same speed (not enough) and armor (not enough) and much worse gun handling. Pershing, T69 – they can’t snipe with poor pen, they can’t flank with poor speed, so easy to kill with tier 9 meds it’s not even fun. Premium ammo is only option, it’s f…n expensive for low alpha. And ofc battle tiers 8-9 are occupied with tanks with limited MM so f..k you – tier X needs free damage for noobs.

You are so pro.

You got gold from a not even existing CW 3 years ago. That takes some skill.

The solution is simple.If you can’t beat them,join them,race to any great tank like the FV 4005 Stage II and watch that gun take away half or more of your opponent’s health pool.It never gets old.

I miss the days when you could be in a Chaffee, plop into a bush, and actually scout.. Don’t get me wrong, I love my scouts, and its still possible to scout, but nowadays, WG are just making them lightly armour brawlers for who knows why? The only explanation I can come up with is that they want LT drivers to spam gold (For example the MT 25), emphasized even more so with the bush removal that is slowly happening to just about every map (Don’t you dare remove Malinovka/Prokhorovka passive scout bushes). I feel that scouts are getting a power creep in the sense of their guns, when in reality they should be getting better scouting capabilities, with more bushes on more maps to scout on.

A more recent blast from the past: http://worldoftanks.com/en/content/docs/development/

Outdated In Development page currently stating NA is on 9.4 . Minor nuance, but WGNA used to be very consistent and now the ball is being dropped. Like they don’t have time to edit the page to at least say 9.5. Make time.

“Gold (premium) ammo was much rare cause it was not for credits. Thanks to that armor was more reliable and skill more important (knowing armor schemes and weakspots was important). Now kid with many credits just spam you through mantlet…. Disgusting.”

3 Years ago I was in CCCP. We held land and got to where every member who participated in clam wars got 100 gold a day.

Who shot gold in random battles? WE DID. I DID. Everyone else had to suffer and just eat poop.

Now EVERY PLAYER IN THE GAME can carry as much gold as they feel they need. It doesn’t bother me, and I don’t care. I carry 5 round of premium ammo on my tier 8+ tanks, about 10 rounds on tier 5-7, and up to 20 premium rounds on my tier 1-4. I try not to use it, otherwise I won’t make any money.

I think it’s more fair now. Now more than just the rich people and land owners can easily use it. The only factor left is the question, “How much money are you willing to throw away?”
