Flakbus should be BR3 if not BR2. Just because it has a Tiger 1s gun doesn't mean it belongs at the same BR.

[@AdmiralNesence]

The increased fire rate probably makes up for the lack of armor, if it reloads as fast as it does in warthunder it could be putting out 30 shells a minute.

[@ilovedemocracyy]

8,8 cm Flak bus is extremely exposed tank destroyer with sluggish movement and minimal protection. Tank crew is going to die to shrapnel and small arms fire and anyone with anti tank weapond can penetrate it.. set it on fire… shoot ammo storage etc. Flak bus does well in Tank vs. Tank (War Thunder), but when you add infantry to the mix it’s not going perform the same. CAS are going to love shooting at this with their machineguns and there’s not going to be any problem at spotting this big ass bus from the air. Panzer 3M and 5cm Puma are going to be 9/10 more useful than Flak 8,8cm at BR 2

[@psychobeam99]

Nah. Tiger I had a shortened version of the 88. This is the full power gun. You are right though. Things a glass cannon.

[@Gasmasters.]

​@@psychobeam99the APCBC shell on the flakbus has less penetration than the tiger 1,if that means anything

[@psychobeam99]

@Gasmasters. It should be the other way around but thats Dark Flow for you.

[@maineiacman]

76mm Jumbo would have been nice to have when the top dog was the Tiger 2 (p) but with the 2 (H) it wont make a difference.

[@Mapasheeto_]

Sad the 76 jumbo came too late, its armor is kinda irrelevant when u can front plate it with any panther or tiger 2 from around 700m.

[@ilovedemocracyy]

Allies would have needed better anti tank cannon for BR 5 instead.

[@DavidNaval]

@@ilovedemocracyy they should have just given us the super pershing

[@ilovedemocracyy]

@@DavidNaval that could have chance at bouncing long 88.

[@Wufel4Dogher]

Yey, more premium... One good thing is that you can unlock it with gold

[@jonathanfabela739]

The 88 should be built by the last engineer (but only for Germans of course)

[@diooverheaven6561]

Then soviets would need their 85mm, allies their 90mm and i don't know what japan had

[@arijevacgaming921]

Now we need to see Hetzer, Nashorn, Elephant, Jagpanther, Jagtiger, Cavalier, Cromwell, Challenger, Isu-152, T-44 etc and so on..... :) to make game more fun and fix battlerating make it +1 or - 1 only!

[@Samuel_613]

BTW, SIG is a swiss company and the KE-7 was designed in switzerland

[@thebbqbandito2868]

The T-34-57 is one of my favorite tanks in warthunder, glad to see it in enlisted. They even gave us the premium version from warthunder!

[@6rcnmyrm1don76]

Soviets not a single good BR 5 Fighter!?!?!?! La-7 is phenominal!, honestly still the better fighter

[@Kukariuk]

nothing new for germans again, the same tank 4th time, and nothing for infantry

[@diooverheaven6561]

To be fair germans have the most things in the tech tree

[@Kukariuk]

@@diooverheaven6561 they have too much duplicates, the last time worse version of tiger and now the worse version of pz4j or G. Absolutely no motivation to go back to the game for such rewards, my friends just switched to another games. Filling the game with limitless prototypes in progression instead of golden cards is cancer too.

[@Kukariuk]

@@diooverheaven6561 4 or 5 fw109. 2 bf110 that are literally the same. 5 pz4s, that could be 3 tanks. 3 or 4 fw190. bunch of stgs that dont give any new experience but are only to slow down players progression.

[@thugnastyx1]

germans have the most in their tech tree.

[@vanja2565]

t-34-57 will have horrible anti infantry capability, but a much better AT capability.

[@shagakhan9442]

I would like to see the 15cm Bison or the Grille. For the 88 Flack truck... Too bad the 8.8cm HE-TF doesn't explode in the air. It would be cool if you could range the timed fuse on the shell like ranging a morter. Like 500, 1000, 1500 meter with the scroll wheel.

[@HalifaxDave]

The T20 could be so very good with the M2 Carbine! I'll certainly play the new Jumbo, but I've come to expect less from US tanka in terms of survivability. I'll keep may CAP flying until it proves itself.

[@mrsanatra1]

I hope they fix BR. The best aspect of this game was having certain weapons and vehicles in campaign, i miss that. When both teams have sweats, thats the best

[@shagakhan9442]

I just unlocked the filler tanks to get the Panther the day before Pz IV G. 😂

[@daviddubose8804]

Mmmmm, love's a good smash burger 😂

[@DavidNaval]

super pershing whennnn

[@Dregomz02]

Finally KV-2 (shame it's a premium), actual American AR, Jumbo 76mm, T-34-57 and KE7 nice. But where is Super Pershing?

[@maineiacman]

Hopefully that won't be a premium or event vehicle. Its needs to be in the Tech tree to compete with the Tiger 2H

[@sampel3660]

Not sure its premium though. Maybe it's just normal vehicle but unlocked with gold.. we'll see

[@Dregomz02]

@@sampel3660 "The tank is crewed by 6 well-trained tankers and the squad will be purchasable for Gold in the game." it's premium 100%

[@sampel3660]

@@Dregomz02 you are right, misunderstood that phrase

[@Eric_Williams2319]

When they update the Germans it’s gonna be crazy I can tell

[@Samuel_613]

First of all, why did they turn one of the most wanted tanks in to a premium (i mean the KV-2), secondly i hope the rzhev maps are high BR or all BR's and thirdly WHERE IS THE SUPER PERSHING!?

[@honorguard7616]

Didn't they make the half track with a MG a premium?

[@diooverheaven6561]

Say what you want about garand sights, but i like them

[@Wild_Pants]

Any idea when the update will drop?

[@mrunknwn3644]

is it just me who hates the game after the merge ? i wish we can select out campaigns like i wanna play on tunisia maps not stalingrad or moscow i want to control that the only way devs can save this if they added preferences

[@nicklazza2222]

They did this merge thing to unite the players and avoid having games with just bots. Hopefully once the population will grow,we will have more game mode options.

[@sampel3660]

I choose to cope with the fact that they are preparing the new BR order: 1-2 / 3-4 / 5+ Absolutely nasty to play br2 nowadays. Not that is unwinnable/unfair/general whining etc it's just worse experience overall, almost 90% of the time you get downtiered br3 fucks that I'm 100% sure they deserting when Berlin pops up kek Honorable mention to the legendary KV2, wanted to play that for a long time. Almost as long as its reload time

[@maineiacman]

BR 3 should be its own matchmaking queue that doesn't see BRs 1&2 and 4&5.

[@sampel3660]

Totally agree in the BR1-2 part
