And yet you ignored my lines pointing out you have much better stats in pack tigers than in tech tree Tigers. Very smart change of subject.
no,you are the one don’t understand my friend, that 30mm is nothing,we tiger players still and MUST angle at all cost , most of them still can pen us if we face our hull to them,i have tigis,and yes, that 30mm did nothing,still angle like every day
and you think we have a good eyes ? get to the position like the flash and angle at the right moment ?
and you think those t34 and m4 sherman players are stupid and don’t know where to hit ?
they always shot at the cupola my friend, ALWAYS
know why the hellcat get on 6.0 when they have the same gun as m4a2 but anything can kill it ?
because they just fast,get to good potision quick and can pen side armor with one shot
what do tiger have to get up br ? a big cupola ? they just walking box at high br ,no speed,just…nothing
and you know what funny ? this post yapping about a small 30mm armor on each side of the tiger, while there still some space in the middle to shoot
you are underate and disrespect the ww2 player my friend, tiger just like food for them

you know what,those player like you just know how to complain,don’t even have experience,check my stats ? huh ? very smart move and very dumb way to use it and talk about how strong are tiger pre
what a waste of time
The massive weakspot is front armor, because there is ammo rack behind far left or right (gaijin have been changing them resently) of front armor. I have edited the main post so you may see some of the conclusion. I consider this a big difference, according to my experience.
And another thing. If you really want to say “skill issue” or something, better check people’s service record first.
15mm worth of of one-off additional armor in some spots isn’t “much better”.
There are many tanks that are either marginally better or marginally worse at the same BR… because, functionally, they are still the same.
Not every slight difference warrants a BR change, because, then, we would pretty much need a BR for every single vehicle ingame, since none is exactly 1:1 to any other.
That’s like saying that Leopard 2A5 and Leopard 2A6 should be different BRs over the 30mm pen difference even though they are otherwise identical;
Or that Strv 122B+ should be a different BR than the other Strv 122s because it has marginally better side armor, etc.

Whatever you say. It seems you are the one saying “skill issue” first, and when it turns out you are not skilled enough, and really rely on the paid advantage to win, you start crying. You still haven’t answered about the difference of your stats between pack tigers and tech tree tigers.
I have already given my test results, and discussed them with my friends. They agree that this is indeed p2w, and the thing is even a bit worse than Italian/Swedish premium 75mm cannon Shermans.
By the way, all these goes the same for KV-1s when facing Pz4, Turm III or M10. And yet, tanks like KV-1E is absolute biased. In a downtier, KV-1 (Zis-5) could be one man army.
Still, I am talking about pack tigers. The tech tree Tigers need to angle so much that their maneuver become limited(so that you may have enough angle). However, the pack tigers don’t. You can also see it as the effectiveness of angle.
I have edited the main post, and wrote a slight bit of the conclusion. I do recommend you ask a friend to help you perform this test.
I would say that this is more than the L2A5 and L2A6 difference. It’s like the difference between M4 (at 3.7) and Italian/Swedish premium Sherman.
I would rather they just give the tech tree tigers the extra track armor and remove the mine launchers

They should make the mine launchers functional but also as a removable mod for the few people that want them.
It would be funny to vaporize rushing open tops/milk trucks who think its safe to push after the gun is out.

True. At least it’s not locked behind a paywall.

I like this idea!
Actual skill issue. There is little to no angles at which you can’t pen a tiger even with the small sherman gun

make this a proper suggestion post please
I love how people pretend that Tigers are literally invincible when angled against their contemporaries, and that therefore they should be upped in BR until they face even more Cold War HEATFS and ATGMs on faster or/and stronger machines, as well as postwar Super-Heavies that would wipe them down (like many 6.7-7.0s already do)…
When the truth is, many of its contemporary guns can go through it easily, sometimes even when angled. French 75s, 77s, 85s, 90s, 100s, 122s…
The Tigers are perfectly fine where they are. Just because their armor sometimes works against uptiered smaller guns when perfectly angled and positioned it does not mean they should be up-br’d until their armor is rendered entirely pointless by everything they face. It’s a HEAVY tank, for God’s sake! It’s suppossed to be able to rely on its armor at least to SOME degree against SOME of its counterparts.
And no, I don’t think they should go lower either, so I hope no one comes with the “hurr durr Tiger to 2.7 Germany suffers Main noob” and all those kinds of comments that always come whenever someone says that Tigers are fine where they currently are.

The pack tigers are not. I already wrote about some test in custom battle and similar in-game experience. And I did not ask for any BR change of any Tech tree Tigers.
again, a skilled player should have no issues fighting them
This. tbh there isn’t enough of a difference between them and the tech tree tigers to make it worth while raising their BR.
if you cant pen the thing from the front engage your brain and flank?
its not hard.

If “it’s a skilled player we are talking about”, what about having a skilled player in the pack tiger too? With enough skills you should know how to have enough angle to protect yourself while moving forward, just like skilled players do in a KV-1 in the face of Pz4s. And similar to what I say about Sherman I Composito, Sherman III/IV and KV-1E, I’d say that pack Tigers are p2w.
That sounds like a good reason to place Jagdtiger at 6.3, due to long reload and “blah blah just pen from the flank”.
Don’t be ridiculous.
Just stop talking and check it out. Perform the test with your friend, and draw your own conclusion. So far, I haven’t really seen anyone coming to me and say “hey I have tested it, and I still believe that this doesn’t change the thing, because…” If anyone really did this, I would be happy to discuss with him. Unfortunately, no one here really care about it.
