Tanks with huge cupolas like the patton should have the best view ranges in the game and not just a tiny 10m difference. Adjust the other stats if you need to but you can't play a tank like the Patton at close ranges. It needs the view range to compensate (or maybe a lot more armor on the cupola). It's things like this that make WoTs so silly.

If you remove optics every tank at tier 9 has better view range than you. If remove vents tank is just a little bit worse all round. I think out of all of them losing some DPM is the least of evils.

For one, the RNG accuracy is so annoying and it's a terrible mechanic. You can line up perfect shots on the flat side of a Maus and miss. Then some KV can snap show the top of your turret while moving and rotating. I'm sorry, but frick you on that one. The spotting and camo. The fact that you can have tanks literally sitting in the middle of a field with no brush and not get spotted is BS. You should be visible until you enter cover and then be unspotted. It's BS that tanks can shoot you behind cover and move back behind cover before the game graces you spotting them. The damaging parts of the tanks. I'm sorry, but shooting those useless hatches and gun ports continuously on the roof of a tank is retarded. It's a terrible gameplay mechanic and it makes certain nation's tanks (America and France) have a MASSIVE disadvantage and get NOTHING beneficial for some a huge drawback (All tanks that have huge hatches on the turret like that should have a MASSIVE view range advantage over ALL other tanks since that's what they were for).

Worth noting the T123E6 120mm gun is closely related to the 120mm M58, and basically fires the same ammunition. WG giving it less pen on a medium makes little sense given it already has worse gun handling and DPM to 'compensate'. If this tank gets buffed the gun handling, view range, and fire rate should be improved. Pen can be left lower than the M103 as a trade off.

It's only real strength is the pen and alpha so I'd equip it and play to that, using vstab, rammer and improved aiming. Begin battles by sniping and only after other vehicles are weakened or flanks have opened up you can move and make plays.

Of all the nerfs Wargaming gave this thing when bringing it down from Tier 10 to 9, the most inexplicable is the view range nerf. Tanks that have giant cupolas Should at least be compensated for the giant tumor of a weakspot by having good view range. The entire point of the cupola is to improve visibility for the commander, after all. "Patton the Tank" should absolutely not have less than 400m base view range. And the bloom when moving and turning the turret should at worst be the exact same as the Renegade. That way the tank wouldn't be absolutely demanding both Optics (which no American medium should need) and Vert Stab to be even playable. If those buffs were applied, the DPM would still be awful and it'd still be a medium with the mobility of a heavy but without the protection of a heavy. It would still be a bad tank. But at least it wouldn't be a tank that's *so* bad it would need 5-6 equipment slots to function.
@juanzulu13188 ай бұрын
Long time ago WG tried to somehow reflect reality in their stats and gave tanks with high cupolas above average view range - which was nice as it helped players to intuitively assert the stats. Not so any longer it seems with this poor Patton version.

More facts about Patton the Tank; Not only is the tank identical to the M48A2/T54E2/T123E6 in terms of armour model, but it is also in fact the same as the Renegade besides the armour values. Originally, the M48A2/T54E2/T123E6 was in the game since 2015 as a super test tank, but later got placed on hold. Then in 2019, we got an early look at the T54E2 which later became the Renegade in a mission marathon. About three months ago, we got super test stats for an M48A2 (120) at tier 9 which is exactly the M48A2/T54E2/T123E6, but worse. Come to the present day, we now have it in the form of Patton the Tank. So technically, we will have two of the same tanks in the game at different tiers.

I'm using turbo, vertical stabilizer and coated optics, maybe in the future if the crew got more skills I would drop the optics, but I am considering the tank as a hull down tank with low aggressive nature, try to be behind the action and fire but even if you get caught you will ricochet some shots but the DPM will fail you

this tank should had been called patton TT-48, besides that, i believe you should improve dispersion factors above all! the gun loading or turbo is not really worth it if you cannot hit your shots.. i installed "improved rotation mechanism" on the first slot, vents on the second (it gets bonus too), and "vertical stabilizer" on the 3rd slot, the tank ends up having 0.14, 0.15 and 0.08 dispersion factors, THAT could improve the accuracy of the gun.
@mireaaragon94408 ай бұрын
Honey, this is no gift. This is bait. I find myself agreeing with the sentiment you shared at the end of the vid. If these things populate the matchmaker, it's practically a turkey shoot for anyone else. The casual players hoping to get some crew exp will end up BEING exp for those who know better. Tier 8 TD's (and quite a few other T8's) will absolutely love seeing these things in their matches. WG just introduced a prey item for the consumption and entertainment of all other high tier vehicles, whether they were meta or not~. I honestly don't blame anyone who felt that this really was more of an insult than a gesture of good will. "It's free, quit complaining" stops being a viable defense when the free thing is a trojan horse that feels like it was designed to entice eager players into becoming targets, all for the promise of faster crew training and free exp.
