M55: Destructive Menace

For some nation its the only vehicle for this patch. Underwhelming update.

Lineup depth and giving several tech trees access to the artillery mechanic without having to model several unique SPHs at once. This way, the famous ones can come one at a time and be a headline addition to individual updates.

Drip feed content industry works in predictable ways. If you understand the incentives, the rest is fairly straightforward.

No more so than the SdKfz 234/2 time travelling back to the past and fighting earlier WW2 vehicles I would say. Game is fully anachronistic anyway.

The nerf to all HE shells in terms of radius is so bizarre. It should be reverted.

Yeah it’s very defensive. You’re like a KV-2, except you’re trading armour for very good mobility and a slightly less enormous profile.

You have the ammo box.

Damn, M55 is good!

First game in German M55:

In poetic fashion, my first ever kill in an M55 was another M55:

What? All my hits have been one shot kills so far.

I was in a Dicker Max earlier and tanked a M55 shell to the drivers port lol. HE is very inconsistent right now

I didn’t think the M55 would be as mobile as it is. Have had a bunch of funny situations of driving around buildings and obstacles to evade enemies as I reload:

Not like the FV4005, where you ain’t going anywhere fast.

4.0 - you lot are drinking far tooooo much!! 5.0 minimum, even 6.0 with that kind of gun and reload speed. AND its far too quick!
ESPECIALLY with the damage output of that 1 hit wonder!!!

DO YOU REALLLLLLY believe its on par with a BT7 F32.!!! Derrr click!"

It’s China. It’s all China. Also at least unlike the m44 your crew isn’t outside the tank. I don’t see why gaijin has to add this to every country, the US already has enough tank destroyers

Dunno, I don’t like it. Reload is too long and the shell isn’t doing alot damage. It almost like a naval artillery gun, but when you hit a t-34 into the side it just damages the tracks. You need to hit specific spots or periscopes on top of the turret. Hatches or cupolas. It not very conviniant. Probably just interesting for youtubers. Also wounder why a bomb of similar HE size always kills with a 100% destruction radius, while this shell just fails.
