But Tiger 2 105 didn’t exist ? Iirc it got brought up by the german high command but never got anywhere. And even in game the vehicle clearly not made for that gun
But by gaijin standard it could not be in the game , cause a turret for that thing was never made in any shape or form. That why they had to slap a Maus turret on it , despite doing such thing would make the E-100 breakdown instantly, it make more sense than putting it in with it intended turret

I partly agree with you point but here the thing, taking US and USSR as example because their TT have heavy tank that is researchable so we can assume that each player in those nation & BR will have at least 1 heavy tank. And the only downside to them is just having much longer time to arrive to the point, but benefits of this is their opponent can’t really do a thing to them. Just now I had play a match which teaming with german and the match is downtier (8.7-7.7), even thought I having APFSDS but I don’t even have enough time to kill those US & Soviet heavy tank because those german’s Leopard just can’t hold the line against those behemoth.
Armour is not the good option IRL, but in WT especially at those shit design CQC map it is the best option. Just look at IS-6, T-10 and M103, they are the dominator in the whole 7.0 to 8.7 br, if their number is enough they will have a easy win by just pressing the “W”
yes and we hear constant complaints on the forum that their armor past 6.7 is invalidated by HEAT shells and they all suck
What makes you think this hypothetical 8.0 german tank wont have exactly the same problem but way way worse when fighting 9.0?
Sure why you dont name any plethora of indigenous german heavy tanks that you believe would fit at 8.0? Or do you propose to twist the knife even deeper by adding more copy paste to the game???

Germany 7.7-8.3 is very good already, what are you on about?
Because of US, Soviet and British tech tree, and those heavy tank are not meant to fight 9.0 so better to place it at 7.7
and what would said heavy tank even be?
Just look how Maus performance in game, main role of heavy tank isn’t killing enemy but taking enemy firepower and giving friendly chances to take their shot. Furthermore, because at this br range most player still using solid round and those round really (HEAT effect really unstable) so if there have enough heavy tank in the team they might just break through enemy line very easily, that is why sometimes the match ended under 5min and enemy tank already spawn camping

Giving light vehicles would be a much better solution, as teaching them that they can’t rely on their armour and force them to actually git gud with positioning and how you aproach fights is how you improve the winrates of 5.0 - 8.0 german teams. Giving another crutch would just lower the winrates further as even if you give them more great vehicles, if they are completely incapable of using them then they are completely worthless for the team.
Okay but what heavy tank would it be
Because they alr have the maus as you said, and that doesn’t do much in uptiers
Maus isn’t TT vehicle, I also think maybe Gaijin can move it to researchable TT vehicle or just add some copy paste vehicle from US and Soviet heavy tank to Germany, because I don’'t think they will make the Lowe
The Panzer VII Löwe is not 8.0 property, the E-75 never existed, the Tiger Maus doesn’t exist, and neither did the 12.8 nor 10.5.
Not one of those vehicles is 8.0 property nor wwasbuilt.
The Maus is a TT vehicle but was removed/pseudo-hidden. It’s not an event vehicle but it’s treated as such cause at its br it sucks, if it goes lower no one can effectively kill it.
No need, because its über-rare and even seeing it is a unicorn + its an event vehicle.
That not a problem, we already got Ho-RI in game
No - they decided the Maus was “unbalanceable”, and so it comes back for a week once a year.
The E-100 was jsut a vey rare reward for an even a few years back - IIRC maybe hte top 100 players got it??
Ho-Ri did make to to an actual design rather than being just a vague concept.
Better candidates might be the Panzer 58/61/68 series of Swiss vehicles - not heavy tanks, but something around that 7.7 BR perhaps?
The prototype Pz 58’s with 90mm and 20 pdr guns might be interesting especially.
