Hi
when in up tier.
I almost always play in UP tier +1, so that, t 47 57 is weak.
If not UP tier It’s ok
When playing against 4.7 or even 5.0 vehicles it’s fun, but to destroy 5.7 opponents, 400m or more away it’s difficult. And if the opponent retaliates you are killed because your shell is fragile.
Thanks
This thread is stupid. T-34-57 is easily one of the most uptier resistant vehicles at its BR.

Hi ,thanks
It is very good at 4.7 and 5.0, but when you play games with +0.7 or +1.0, its performance drops a lot, because the opponents’ bodies are superior and difficult to destroy.
A shot at 400m or more hardly destroys the opponent, and then you are easily killed, because your body is very fragile. A
skilled player could do better, but normal players are terrible and deceptive.
If the player is an expert in maps, then he plays well with this tank, but we all know that they are minorities. I
n addition, it is necessary to know all the weak points of each tank. It is definitely not fun, but challenging!
So you judge a vehicle’s capabilities just by the average noob player’s ability rather than what it’s actually capable of? Lmao
The T-34-57 is perfectly fine, I’d argue it’s a literal T-34-85 sidegrade at a whole lower BR, because it exchanges angled performance and explosive mass for faster reload and better flat pen. The non-premium version is actually even better, because it has an extra HP/T ratio (I don’t trust the T-34 armor enough to rely on it anyways). I used the T-34-57 at 5.3-5.7 and I had about just as much efficiency as with the T-34-85, just simply had to make sure I shoot flat plates more (since the Soviet 57mm is pretty meh against angles).

IMO T-34-57 gonna be good when you use it as flank, since it can kill Panthers and VK’s from the side (and they’re blind 50% of the time) and the 57mm ZiS is pretty good. IMO it’s a funny tank, but think about the times when you get donwtiered, absolutely murdering Panzer IIIs and IVs.

T-34-57 is bonkers strong and does just fine in uptiers.
Its got similar penetration values to vehicles that are as high in BR as 6.0, its got a good APHE round considering the low calibre, and a super fast reload.
Its mobile enough to use that pen and reload to get easy flanks and side shots.
Its probably one of, if not the strongest tank at 4.7.

I agree to an extent. I personally believe it’s a sidegrade to the T-34E STZ, but at 0.7 of a BR higher, sure it gets a faster reload and it’s got more pen but worse angle performance and worse explosive mass by a lot. I could never get the T-34-57 to work which is why it’s been dead to me since the first few games I had in it.
I use it at 5.3 with the T-34- 85 D5T, it can still do damage to Panthers and Tigers if you know where to shoot plus the much faster reload is great for flanking

it also has a smaller turret, looks like a pin head, hard to hit

Really by a small margin, but the turret design just works much better for War Thunder for what it is, the turret neck is usually a very easy pen for any kind of vehicle while the 1941 turret has the incredibly sloped design that can be a volumetrical nightmare if hit too high or too low.
t34-57 needs a buff and a lower br
bait used to be believable

Yes - like almost everything else in the game it is not so good vs opponents 2 or 3 steps higher than it’s BR.
In other news, water is wet.
