wooo. Was waiting for when I can get a week's worth of premium.
lololol the T-34 ROF w/the 57mm is insane. Played a game on campinovka where I fired 60 shells with 40 hits. Just throwing as much steel down field as possible, haha. In another game i continuously fired 30 shells into the front of a type 59. I know it was pointless but it was funny & I made that player super angry
god i hope they fix the stupid MM one day.
when they put all the T59's on 1 team it's hard to beat
But, but, but, 59's aren't OP!
Tell me how many times you dogfight a t-59 in a Vk3601, 3002 DB, t-43 or a T-20 and come out on top.
You can stop them but it can be but it's very difficult in a tier 6 vehicle or 7, especially in german vehicles because the 88 is so underwhelming for its tier. russian tanks get the 100/107/122/152mm early on so they have better fighting chances than their american/german counterparts.
T-59s are "bully" type vehicles in that they perform poorly against equal and higher tier tanks but are very good at slaughtering low tiers. Sure, if you have damage sponges (m6, Kv-3) while big guns pick them off then you'll be in good shape. But getting that occasion where your team's lowe/tiger II doesn't get swarmed and knocked out first is extremely rare.
End result is whichever team has more t-59s that pack together usually wins.
see, that's the point. 1v1 t-59s are dog food. When there's 4 of them rushing down one side though, it's incredibly hard to deal with even for big tanks that can pen them reliably like KTs or Lowes, even Jagdtigers. I can walk away from one relatively unscathed in my panther 2 if we're dogfighting, and I know all the weak spots... but the problem in hand is having a t-59 wolf pack slam into your team that is made up of mostly tier 6-7s. Even playing defense will cripple your ranks.
1v1? T-59 is comparatively weak in those cases. When you have 3 of them driving all over the place chewing you up... that's the problem. End result is whichever team has more t-59s that pack together usually wins.
I know they switched it to win/loss ratio but I didn't expect it to be that ridiculous. Is that why I'm getting so many window lickers on my team? God forbid I do well, now I'm expected to carry the team to victory as well?
If there's 4 T-43s or 4 Panther IIs or 4 of anything rolling in on your tier 6/7 front, it'll be hard. This is not a strength of the type59 but rather a weakness of the lack of organization/planning of pub match teams. Your team has roughly as many tier8 tanks as their team does. Where the hell did all of those tanks go? Why are you defending a tier8 push with only lower tier tanks?
