I played both the M-51 and the KT yesterday. The Sla version, to specify.
I averaged about… 2 kills per game with the M-51 with some games reaching 4 but no ace. Why? Because the M-51 is such a shitbox of a tank. Poor mobility and gun handling got me killed on multiple occasions when trying to do anything. Inorder to succeed with it you have to rely on the enemy making mistakes and being oblivious while trying to get into a good position where you can stop moving for awhile.
Played the KT only once, I’ll admit. Was a long day for me so I wanted to sleep more than anything. 7 kill game, no deaths. Wasn’t even playing seriously. For a HT everything about it blows the gears off the M-51 in any direct comparison, and performing well in the KT really isn’t hard to do.
Maybe the KT should go to 8.0 instead, hmm? No? Okay then, and neither should the M-51.
I love “gtfo” responses from casual players. I should just “find a different game” and stop “making the game unfun” for people who “just want to have fun”. It happens in every single game, regardless of the level of realism it has.
Hell Let Loose has arcade damage models, while Squad 44, formerly Post Scriptum, has other issues that made the game dead. They are also infantry-centric games. A realistic tank game should incorporate infantry, but if it wants to be tank-centric, the infantry should be bots.
There are no other realistic tank games. GHPC fumbled the bad by focusing on single player, while Steal Beasts is expensive and has horrible graphics, it’s a simulator/game from the year 2000, 24 years old.
You’re the one here complaining about the game not giving you the matchmaking you want, not me.
I don’t care about your beefs with the other games. The fact remains they’ll give you an experience closer to what you’re looking for compared to WT, so you should go play those for that experience. Whether you quit WT entirely or not in the process is irrelevant to me.
Also, I have 4,000 more battles than you. You’re the casual player, as far as I am concerned, especially moreso considering your insane take.
It’s a dumb one dimensional argument. It’s the kind of argument that is used in an election campaign, because it’s short, sounds smart and can be spammed by bots.
The fact that it can pen everything so easily compromises entire playstyles. The M-51 is just part of the issue, the prime example. There should be post-WW2 ammo at all below 7.7.
And some people like me don’t and never will. I don’t get why an effectively removed vehicle would be brought up in a balance discussion about a different vehicle. The Maus is obtainable from time to time, Tiger 2 105 isn’t.
