I agree, the long 90 just doesn’t cut it above 8.0. It’s sides are thin and easily overpressureable. 7.3 would be fine cus there’s heat slingers at 6.3 that can kill it easily.

The T32E1 is actually on the good end of those tanks TBF mate, id rather use it over the M103 now adays.
That 90MM is banginmg
how does it not? its still got great pen and post pen damage.
just cant be frontline with it
I can invest in a 401k, wait a bit, then retire before the gun reloads. Sure the gun has good HE filler, but the fact that you have a geriatric reload means that you can’t be frontline. Also the gun is lacking, APDS and HEAT-FS are commonplace, with fast reloads.

I was front lining in it last night in a full uptier.
While not ideal at all its reloads not that bad , though my crews are mostly over level 100
Agree apds negates a lot of the armour on the T32E1 hull, but when you are in a full uptier when apds is common then you shouldn’t be spawning a t32 unless necessary.
I use it in a 7.7 lineup and have a near 2.0 kd with it since i started using it.
(Btw most 90mm heat it can encounter isn’t very good)
It’s such a mediocre gun for 7.7, that `mid penetration with such a long reload just kills it for me.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it should be moved down in BR. It’s just another prime example of a heavy tank that suffers from severe BR compression in this game.
I prefer it to the 122 on the IS4m And IS6, T10.
I mean in comparisson to the other heavies of its BR, T32E1 though is a bit more refined than say, T10A whcih while having a stab for 20kmph or so, also has a worse reload, worse depression, protection etc etc.
I personally think the gun for a 7.7 heavy . is pretty good

My bar for good firepower is the Conqueror and M103, so seeing how that is quite a high bar maybe that is why I consider it mediocre.
I also consider the 122s to be a bit subpar in terms of firepower.
See that may be why, though those two do have substantially better firepower with the 120mm above the rest of the 7.7s IMO

I also have a 2 KD in it. The “Well, I did well in it” argument doesn’t work in War Thunder because you can do well with anything if you’re a good player. I would rather up tier the Jumbo Pershing because the same weakspots apply, but the reload is much much faster.
Uptier the jumbo pershing for what?
than the M26?
the
Im an average player at best.
The tank statistically must be doing good enough to stay at 7.7 with its overall performance, hence why it is still 7.7.
It has no right to drop to 7.3 where it is near untouchable. If T32E1 moved to 7.3, IS4M would also warrant to move. As it follows the same premis.
That is BS, all those tanks has so much more side armor (except the m103). If you read my topic i already said they have so much more side amor. Any tank from with atlease 100mm of pen can kill the t32e1 but with the IS-4M and MAUS, it takes more pen.
Side armor requires them to flank you.
Bingo and thats why the MAUS, E100, and most Russian heavies are better then the t32e1
So you’re just going to double down on the claim the T32E1 is worse because Americans have a skill problem.
There’s no reasoning with that claim.

I did not say that? However, 7.7 is such a horrible br to play at so maybe we should just put a limit to what br those 7.7 tanks can play, like 8.3
Side armor only plays a role based on skill of the player.
Maus is on-par with T32E1, and they all can deal with 8.7s with others, which your team has as well.

Maus has two guns, more armor all around, better pen and more explosive filler with similar reload time with the t32e1. the only thing the t32e1 is better at is its mobility.
The Maus has 1 main gun and a smoke launcher.
Similar armor when angled, worse armor when not.
And worse mobility than the Maus.
Buddy it has two guns because both can fire shells that can kill
Last time I checked APCBC 312mm of pen from the 128mm and 224mm APCBC from the 90mmis NOT similar. Am I wrong?
Maus has over 200mm of amor when not angled frontally. Sure the t32e1 has more turret armor but thats it.
And yes thats what i said
