The WORST Premium Tank in War Thunder

The newest premium tank to be added in War Thunder's Kings of Battle Update is actually also the WORST. For how much GE this tank costs, it's absolutely NOT worth buying.

T54E2 in Warthunder : bad premium tank T54E2 in World of Tanks (especially blitz) : *hulldown monster screeching noises*

[@seasuper3402]

Bm-8-24 also exists

[@tuutikkidd6982]

If im right that thing wont pen a panzer II Lmao

That one's at least a bit of a laugh, not just bad and boring :P

[@mrfuzzerkins4170]

I was gonna mention the rocket soviet thing

[@lexonfors]

I honestly think E2 should be in the tech tree

[@ZzVinniezZ]

yeah compare to E1...E2 felt so much worse in comparison. tech tree version would have been alot more tolerable. why would people buy E2 when E1 is a thing?

[@lexonfors]

@@ZzVinniezZ it's only real pro over E1 is downtiers to 6.7

[@MyWaifuNow]

I have literally never joined a match that has already started with "automatically join matches in progress" set to off in ~1330 matches. The most "in progress" match I joined had 10 seconds left on the ready up clock. If you are joining matches in progress with that setting off its probably because your load time is too slow and it takes more than 20 seconds for you to join. Maybe It was a broken setting for a time or if you used to (or still do) run the game on a HDD that would cause you to join a match "late" just because of really long load times.

[@Jonathan-ki4iz]

6:35 I have never joined an already active match, I have however joined matches that don't have the full 20 sec in the spawn screen. You are probebly just stuck in the loading screen for longer than most.

[@Xtariz]

True I've never joined a match in progress

[@pliat]

The idea of a main battle tank was already around for a while. As early as 1943 Montgomery was talking about the “universal tank”, which was developed into the Centurion, widely regarded as the first modern MBT.

[@BloodyCrow__]

I use the t-54e1. Use mainly apds and a couple heatfs. My kill death ratio is 4/1

[@BloodyCrow__]

Americans didnt stablize anything after the sherman until the M60a1 AOS in 1972. These tanks were made in the 50s.

[@StiveGuy]

To be honest, just a bit more GE and you can get the wolfpack

[@lexonfors]

>"bit more ge" >looks inside >$15 in GE

[@StiveGuy]

@@lexonfors I was thinking if you buy the 10000 GE pack. The Wolfpack is like 9200, the T54's are 8300 or 8500.

[@JohnWilliams-sq7cj]

Glad i got mine for 4545 during the sale lol.@@StiveGuy

[@xvphoenixvii5146]

the lack of not hitting ammo on tanks you can easily hit ammo on is painful, but yeah i was pretty excited forthe T54E2, sad to see that its not very good in this game

[@BloodyCrow__]

I don't know what you're smoking because Ive had join match in progress off and have NEVER joined an in progress match in my 6000 hours.

[@budderdogofficial]

did anyone else notice the jump in battlerating from 7.7 to 8.0 at the beginning of the video? or is that just me?

[@PanzerPaw]

It's because of the T54E1, that tank is at 8.0 while the T54E2 is at 7.7

[@budderdogofficial]

@@PanzerPaw oh i didnt notice that

[@Nick-rs5if]

Being a gargantuan revolver, the T-54E1 really is the greatest shot in the west! 😂

[@PanzerPaw]

It really is haha

[@crashdrive3179]

How about every assist you upgrade your tank

[@amn0940]

How do you do to see how mmany rounds you carry on each rack of the tank? Everytime I check it it just says "ammo" without the numbers

[@semi.g]

You count them ... manually

[@Jonathan-ki4iz]

You count them, or you go into a match and look at the "first stage ammo" counter in the bottom left. Always add an extra shell, cuz it will be stored in the gun.

[@semi.g]

@@Jonathan-ki4iz first stage ammo is shown in the xray. Also, test-drive would be a better option than a match

[@GabeMartinez-ps8mb]

I got the E2 a while ago one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made also please play more Escape from Tarkov

[@Deadmau195]

Can you please play the sd.kfz 140/1? I haven't seen any war thunder content creator play it EVER

[@Hypersend]

This is the most Texan tank I've ever seen

[@semi.g]

Panzer, 2 things 1. The Join already ongoing battles option Actually prevents you from joining matches that have already begun(trust me) 2. Having high ping is a benefit when you are pushing people, it takes longer for you to appear on their screen, it's known as "peeker's advantage" in shooter games, look it up.

[@weaboodoo2346]

9:15. You should play the Strv 71 light tank then. -20 degrees of depression.

[@M65V19]

Yeah. This thing gives to the players very much amount of depression.

[@chrisbacon3071]

I watched the Spookston video on this tank and he came to the conclusion pretty quickly that this tank sucks. 😂

[@marcinos303]

It's definitely not worth buying, but the M26 "Tiger" is a much worse tank.

[@andrewyaden5209]

The m26s suffer so much 😢

[@pchillboy6603]

Pls do super pershing

[@Centurion_mk1]

the matilda has -20° so this is good and you have amor can you trie it in hull down.

[@Streaky100001]

"It's a leopard 1, he has a faster reload than me" Panzer, in that thing, even the damn Gustav gun has a faster reload than you! Also, why do the Americans have T-series tanks? I thought T stood for target?

[@terra7869]

The T designation were for prototypes before the US switched to the X designation

[@Streaky100001]

@@terra7869 huh, interesting, thanks :)

[@lordwintertown8284]

I can't think of any worse tanks outside of MLRS or maybe the Italian M60 premium (Heh M60 M60 M60 M60 M60 M60 M60)... & I can't think of a any bad premiums worse then another premium or TT equivalent but a ship equivalent to this T54E2 would be the Project 1204 Early which is a 2.3 BR riverine gunboat far worse then the TT equivalent for over a thousand GE since it doesn't get a 25 mm AA only a 14.5 mm HMG, no AGL's or a rocket launcher (although both get a PT-76 turret) or the premium Type 12 ASW Frigate which is also worse then the TT one without torpedoes an costs six thousand GE to get. Sometimes the devs decisions to make a premium worse then an already premium or TT machine is very confusing. Maybe in may I might get both T54's to make fool around lineup as a worse tank lineup heh.

e2 much better more armor faster turret bigger engain slow reload unless skilled

[@zhuravlevivan4622]

Saying that oscillating turret is something new, you clearly haven’t seen amx-13 and Lorraine 40t, French made these before Americans

[@Khotetsu]

It's my understanding that the French and American oscillating turrets are from the same experimental program, as the Lorraine and T-54E1 turrets have practically the same design, even down to the dust covers on the joint between the turret and hull. I think he was using the word "new" as in "unconventional/unique" because there's only a handful of tanks across all the nations in-game that have one.

[@walliwabbel]

What you said at 6:40 is just not true..

[@hughmungus2295]

Tbh E2 is way better armor and in taking shots and 13 second for 105 is not bad

[@hughmungus2295]

Nvm the armor suck absolute balls

[@niklaslucke3994]

My Question is why is this thing with at least a little armor and very good pen at 7.7 but the leopard 1 at 8.0 ? I think they are quite similar in strengh with the leo being more maneveurable and the t54e2 having more armour.

[@M65V19]

Armour of T54e2 doesn't matter at this br and in fact can be penetrated even by t-35-85 and pz4-f2. Leopard is way faster and have reloads quick while T54E2 can't get at pace of Leopard and has everything except armour (which it has in not enough amount) worse.

[@pliat]

100 times out of 100 i would rather be in the leopard. It’s completely fine at 8.0, and still better than the M60 and all 3 T-54s.

[@niklaslucke3994]

@@pliat my big Problem with the Leopard now is that you get constant uptiers and play against fully stabilised t55s and others

[@pliat]

@@niklaslucke3994 that’s the same with all 8.0 tanks though

[@andreahumada5103]

​@@niklaslucke3994Well Gajin would just have to compress br like how Spookston has been saying.

[@HunterSteel29]

What is it with the M60s and everything that shares its hull being allergic to stabilisers? I want to grind up the Israeli and German trees, but coming off my fully stabilised 7.0 and 8.0 lineups from the UK to the unstabilised Pattons makes me want to cry.
