Please don't move the M26 to 6.7

Alright well, then all that’s left is you seem to just be saying “OP didn’t mean what he very explicitly said he meant” and that’s about all it boils down to. I think people do mean what they say, personally, shrug

Especially when it’s a pattern I see all the time in game development, over all sorts of games, from items in Minecraft to a bench you can’t sit on in Skyrim, or whatever. Even in War Thunder in other contexts, such as people constantly complaining about “Convertible RP isn’t useful to me, but it just sits there, here’s 20 elaborate idea about how to make it have a use” because they just can’t stand something EXISTING without them using it. I don’t know why, some kind of OCD thing or whatever, maybe. But it’s very common, and OP definitely meant it.

OP very explicitly meant what I have pointed out.

That’s why he specifically mentions the T26E5, T26E4 (T26E1-1 in game) and M26E1.

Whether you now want to believe that to be the case or not is a separate matter.

Breaking barrels is not reliable. It often takes 2 or 3 direct hits to break the barrel, at least it seems the case in recent matches.

Also, the Panther transmission blocks the shot. The M26’s transmission is in the rear. Any shot to the not supposed to be weak spots but are weak spots lower plate bulges go straight into the ammo rack.

Never had a problem with destroying a barrel with one shot.

Larger barrels can be more difficult to destroy, but I don’t think a Sherman or T-34 would struggle to destroy a Panther barrel.

lmao…nobody cares about typo corrections

The entirety of the post was already written before you removed it to make your fake “quote” text.

You have derailed this thread for long enough with your lies about that 3 year old post…it’s just embarrassing: take your spamming elsewhere.

You’re so obsessed with that old post and attracting my attention that I figure you must be jealous of me or have a crush on me…and you’re not my type.

PM if you must, but quit trolling here. Everyone’s bored with your tripe.

Yeah, boiler steel is typically cold-rolled and fine-grained from everything I’ve been able to find, so the closest would be anti-fragmentation armor. Its not hardened like RHA is obviously but its still got more than enough increased tensile strength to be classed as more durable than structural steel.

I made a bug report years ago on the old forum, using multiple sources, that said boiler plate was about .8x RHAe.

Said the guy perfectly remember when and how kill me in the game LOL.

But thats if exaclty you do. Enter in a topic and drop your silly arguments like “germans are good in cqc” “Ferdinand is a good counter flanker” or the well know meme “Panzer 4G is the german Hellcat” but thanks to me the people just started to ignore you and know im going do the same.
Right now you pass to ignore situation , good luck trying to trolling here when nbody can see your menssages ehehehe.

It can.

They just made it even worse. Jumbo 75mm to 5.7 is-1 too. But they give late m82 to all. Bery good trade. Now soviet and usa on 2nd place of the most overtiered mid ranks

Flak Dancer, Warrior412. Could you both stop? You look rediculous flooding this thread with irrelevant commentary about an event 3 years ago.

Flak_Dancer, it’s been 3 years, let it go. It’s largely irrelevant to this thread. Who cares if he made a stupid comment 3 years ago?
Warrior412, calling his screenshots fake looks rediculous. They are genuine of what he posted in the forums 3 years ago, whether you edited in extra detail afterwards or he snipped it out is largely irrelevant.

Just ignore eachother’s irrelevant content and focus on the thread topic, please?

G6 going to 6.7 is the only sane change on this entire list.

not even surprised with gaijin ignoring half the feedback doing almost everything their own way and locking the post. and then wonder why are we still mad about them ignoring it.

They always listen to a few things and then next time they change the BRs they do it anyways because sekrit statistics said so.

The increased velocity is better than nothing but it’s amazing how the Russians get the D shell, the Germans get reload buffs.

And still, the T32 and T32E1 get nothing.

Dont worry , i do it. Is in ignore status. The problem is not that sentence 3 years he comes with more.
“Ferdinand is a good counter flankers” yes a big, slow turretless tank destoyers is good for fught hhelcats, m56, M41, EBRs , cmon…

Only 3 germany tanks get reload buff vs 7 US get the new M82. A certain of US tanks get that new ammo speed without BR changes meanwhile all germans taks need BR up for new reload speed.
I know you are extremly biased US fanboy but dude this time looks like US win here.

So going back to the M26 which is what the topic is about. It should’ve remained at 6.3, the gun, armor and mobility are incredibly mediocre and completely outclassed by the T26E5 which is just better straight up but now shares the same BR.

Since talking about the 90 and M26 always leads to talks about the Panther im gonna use them as an example. To be blunt, the Pershing will struggle against the Panthers thanks to the gimped nature of its gun. It cant harm the germans front plate and it still needs to aim for the volumetric prone turret, you know, the exact same thing a 76 armed sherman needs to do.

Against the M26 the Panther can penetrate the UFP in a CQB situation if the player doesnt angle. The LFP of the M26 has two buldges only 100mm thick that almost every tank can take advantage of. Cant forget about the crew hatches that are guaranteed kills if struck. The turret seems like a strong spot of the M26 until I point out the ginormous muzzle brake the 90mm has, hell you can basically disable the gun without even intending to shoot at it.

Both of them trying to fight at range is the equivalent of two knights in armor throwing knives at each other in the vain hope that just one of them hits the eye slit.

Oh and the M26 doesnt has the abroomz super OP stabilzer that German mains insists as an unstoppable advantage.

Therefore the M26 shouldnt be more than .3 higher than the Panthers.

I think it’s the only time we’ve ever run into each other in game and it ended humorously.

Despite all your big forum talk and your Panther F being better suited than my M4A3 for the engagement (sniping at each other from cover at ~800m)…you lost!

I guess that’s consistent at least, lmao
