And pretty much any other tank but i see. Yeah, it is okay where it is.
I agree. I recently unlocked Centurion Mk1 and despite its slow speed, it sure does eat Tiger E for breakfast. When I used it early on, I was cornered by 3 Tiger tanks and I destroyed all 3 of them. I used the reverse speed to confuse and irritate them, and somehow they were all really bad players and I destroyed them with ease. Maybe they had no mods researched, hard to tell. I was more agile than the Tigers and they were dumb enough to chase me around a rock.
Average tiger player
A 1.4 K/D in a tank is not “curbstomping”, buddy. You aren’t getting the centurion moved anywhere.
I wouldn’t say that centurion is a bad tank necessarily, even without apds shell shatter thing it still would and SHOULD SIT at 6.0, apds is cool but still its not that speedy and not that armoured, let britain BREATHE man…
Oh no I agree, I just found it funny that OP is making absurd claims with such a low K/D in it.
Even more absurd when they have much better K/Ds in US, German and Soviet tanks at and around the same BR, yet hasn’t made a topic about any of those.
Brits have 1 tank at a BR where it’s downsides don’t render it completely obsolete.
Germans most affected.
Oh, sweet irony.
Most of those games were played before the BR changes when the Cent wasn’t at the same BR as the Panther A and Tiger E. I’ll get on it though :)
Today after playing only two games I got 9 kills and 3 assists in the Cent alone, with only one death to another tank and one more to a bomb. Won both games.
I mean I’m not seeing anything outrageous here:
-
The bulk of the Vietnam game was just tickling a T28 (that somehow missed your tank point blank, maybe shooting someone else?), shooting and killing a few Bulldogs, a Type 75 SPH and a T25 that absolutely could have killed you but was really happy to hide in his hole and then present his side armour to you for some reason
-
A Carpathians spawn camp, clicking on vehicles that were driving out of their spawn, taking 5 APDS shells to kill a Panther D before getting booped by an M109
I’m honestly struggling to see what makes the Cent so good here, shrugging off a hit from the T25 that shot through 2 bushes and a StuG IIIG?
Thats the thing. What you call an average tank in other tts, here in UK it is Very Good and will have to be reballanced in a way.
/j or at least a half joke
Centurion Mk.1 TOO GOOD???
If honestly it should be 5.7 or 5.3
OR EVEN BETTER, Fix the AP and APDS rounds…
Most british vehicles are overtiered and yet when someone gets a good match on them, everyone screams it’s overpowered and gets moved in BR or nerfed in someway.
Sort of like how people were demanding the tog go up like 2 br brackets because britian finially got a mid tier heavy with a good gun and they couldnt just sit in front of it.
I’m not a British hater XD. I think the TOG could easily be 5.0. The Centurion just does extremely well where it’s at because it has extremely trolly armor and a pretty solid gun. With the latest BR changes to Germany I think the Centurion should also go up slightly to kick it out of 5.0-5.3 games where it is completely broken.
While there’s people demanding that TOG goes down to 4.7.
Literally just don’t shoot the UFP. The LFP, the huge turret cheeks, the giant coaxial machine gun mount, all are easy pens for most guns around that tier at over 500m.
Even the Russian 85mm can get through the turret weakspots at point blank ranges. The Panther has equal or arguably better (slightly weaker turret, but no weak LFP with an ammo rack).
It’s just a 5.3 gun. It’s the same gun and ammo as the Challenger (Which also has a slightly better reload too). The solid shot is a straight downgrade to the Panther’s gun, and the APDS can be rather inconsistent.
The Cent is just overall very comparable to the Panther. No reason it needs to be a higher BR than it.
British suffering br coefficient.
It is by FAR the worst centurion. You get the same gun on a firefly… or even at 5.3 BR, whereas later centurion’s have 84mm with apds…
If of all vehicles, this is your problem, i would advise to never leave your spawn because there are far more dangerous vehicles out there.
After APDS nerf is a 5.7 tank.
2.0
