Indeed, it’s better to bring APHE(as it’s “buff” is useles), so you just have an over BRed M4A1, however we should be getting a proper welded hull Sherman to replace it at 3.7.
Ex. Like the UKs most used Sherman. M4A4 Sherman V: The workhorse of the Royal Armoured Corps
They are functionally identical in WT, the battle ratings in the game are used to balance player skill and not vehicle capabilities, this is one of those cases where its very obvious because its the same vehicle in question, overall brit mains do better with a sherman
Yea it’s one of the most blatantly wrong BRs at low tier. Hopefully we can see it dropped, lose the APCR (who uses it anyways) and then get a Sherman V foldered under it to take its place
It’d be nice to have the Sherman I and Sherman V in game along with many versions of the Ram.
What’s even funnier about that particular T45 APCR round is that it should be removed entirely from the British lend lease Sherman II for historical accuracy. Since it was only ever experimentally tested for the M3 75mm gun in Aberdeen, U.S.
I mean, it should be a bit lower but its by no means bad, I got my highest kill game with it (15 kills with that vehicle alone, 23 in total), and that was an uptier, so its definitely workable and not bad, but yeah no thats just gaijins way of balancing
I get it, but it doesn’t matter if that’s being used as an excuse for why it’s there (it’s not, no excuse is given); they should be at the same BR.
Yeah, it’s a M4A1, so it’s a great tank, even a br bracket higher. Nevertheless, for parity, it needs to be moved down.
Yeah, I did call it ahistorical in my post.
As far as I can see, this is only on the roof of the hull and is pretty negligible. It doesn’t protect any more against something like the Yak-9K for example (curse that cancer) and the turret roof is identical. The T-34E STZ has a lot more frontal armour than the 1941 and 1942 while being identical in all other aspects yet remains at the same BR.
I think it’s really funny that it is at the exact same br as the Sherman 1 Composite despite that thing literally being the best Sherman for BR (Better armour than M4A2) at 3.7
Honestly it boggles my mind. How do they do BR changes like increasing the BR of the AEC AA (which I very rarely see, and when I see it, it doesn’t do well), but leave the Sherman II sitting at 3.7 for years? What lens are they looking at Britain through?
Swedish Sherman:
They just hate Britain lmaoooo
Which the Italians get but not the British funnily enough.
Also Sadly the Fr#nch
I’ve said it heaps of times, I’ll say it again here. Just get rid of T45 and drop it to 3.3 with the rest of the M4A1’s. Then finally give us the missing Sherman V (M4A4) which the French and Chinese trees have at 3.7.
If, there only was a way to make Gaijin listen to us.
Maybe a suggestion, would help.
Seems to be the only way that things get changed.
There is a suggestion for the Sherman V
Yeah but still makes no sense for the Sherman II to have T45 APCR.
Made a suggestion but it was immediately shut down because apparently we just have to like whatever the devs are doing.
