It’s 5BR so it will only ever see 4.0 BR in a down tier never 3.7 .Like any fully down tiered tank in the right hands it will probably runaway with the game but that is War Thunder for you.Germany have suprisingly little that is fast and mobile and useful to attack .Maybe why they do so badly when it comes to winning games.They also have no 5BR line up so the VK will most be in with 5.7 anyway as a sort of German M18 Hellcat

No.




Completely false. You more common battle are uptiers to 5.7 and 6.0.

You means like VK3002 ? because is the only 5.0 Germany tank in the TT.

What hills??? the 80% of the maps are flat urban areas LMAO.

Yes, you are right, the only problem is yours and only yours.

You angled it way too much its practically side on, if you look at his image it isnt pennable angled correctly

Even in a perfect angle, you can shot his tracks, cupola or wait he aim his slow turret for shot in the frontal weakspots or disable his barrel.
The most common is if someone try angle his hull expose too much his side and reveal the weakspot.
Personally i never see semeone trying angle the Panther, a tank well know for his extremly weak sides.

I’d put it at 5.3, it has zero business facing 4.0 tanks that it can lolpen, while they have to aim for smaller weakspot.

Ye 5.3 would prolly be fine, but it wouldn’t have any issues performing at 5.7.

I didn’t really like the vehicle when I played it. It doesn’t have much armor over a Sherman and doesn’t really get a stabilizer or traverse that would make it comparable. The VK3002 and the Panther D are more like tank destroyers than anything else.

I don’t understand why people think the vehicle is all that great. I’d rather play a Sherman 76mm for the traverse and stabilizer.

I definitely would.

Imagine having the armor of an M10, the turret traverse of an M10, and the mobility of an M10 at T26E5 BR lol.

that would prolly suck, so it’s a good thing VK 3002 is one of the fastest tanks in its BR range, has one of the the strongest cannons of anything within its BR range, has very strong armor that only a handful of Vehicles (namely Firefly and Sherman FL-10) can penetrate, and btw has nearly double the turret traverse than M10, and unlike M10, it has a roof.

The mobility doesn’t really matter when you can barely resist a Sherman at your BR. And while i’m not opposed to the vehicle going to 5.3, I think BR decompression would help more.

I still think the Sherman 76mm is better though. I loathe the VK3002. It sucks to play.

Is just pure hate. Certain allies fanboy cant acept german can have good vehicles too.

The German line is filled with many vehicles that are lower than they should be. Don’t pretend that Germany Suffers, cause it doesn’t.

Guess that’s fair. I myself have never been a fan of the 76mm Shermans, although many love them. I fully understand why ppl wouldn’t wanna VK3002 play with its slow reverse and traverse. Regardless of how fun or unfun someone views the VK 3002 to be, it’s still extremely oppressive in downtiers, even more so than some of Warthunder best heavy tanks.

Look man, if you think that VK3002 is excessive for its BR, you’ve not seen the nonsense of the KV85 lol

It has much more power behind it at the same BR without any of the downsides.

TAM, TURM 3, Literally all Leopard tanks 2A5 and above, the Begleitpanzer, the Jagdtiger, the Raketenautomat, the VT1-2, the PT-16/T14, etc.

The list goes on. Many have been fixed such as the Puma, KW-1C, Leopard 1, M48A2C, and such but the issue is still present. And before you call me an “Allied Fanboy”, I’m a German Main. I have personally used many of these vehicles. I’ve also maxed the entire German tank and helicopter tree along with the Air tree soon to follow.

Your opinion is pretty clear. Someone brings up a valid concern and you call them an allied fanboy. That’s some pretty disrespectful behavior from someone with your time on the game. Be a little nicer to the new people and explain how they’re wrong rather than being rude.
