Type 59 Buffed Its Gun Actually Hits Now! ll World of Tanks Console Modern Armour - Wot Console

[@Cagey16]

Nice one, Petty! At last... I might now be able to three-mark mine without losing the will to live. GGs

[@davewedgbury1583]

You will if you have a map with a hill

[@Petty360]

Yup, you'll atleast be able to rely on the gun now! 😅

[@jacobsekela8691]

Nice video! I think a series on powercrept premiums would be interesting - would show how much the game has changed and how the game's powercreep has gotten more and more blatant. Tanks I would include: AMX CDC, M4A1 Revalorise, Super Pershing, IS-6, M6A2E1, T-34-3, Panther 8.8, and probably a bit controversial ... the Panzer 58 Mutz.

[@Petty360]

I did start it with the T54 mod 1 tbf, more will be on the way.

Thanks Petty, I picked this tank up from a chest during the broken time where you couldn't tell pref tanks from the main screen. Played it solo and with friends (with draugen) prior to the buff. It doesn't perform well against 10s... I'll go back to it (more careful in the platooning).

[@Petty360]

Yup, make sure everybodies playing something pref when you play it!! Yeh it'd be totally outclassed against tens....

[@Sero12245]

I remember getting this tank for free one day. Never thought much of it, but it's one of my most plated tanks next to my IS6 and tiger 1. After 6 years I looked at my stats to find the type 59 is one of my best to play. It teaches you alot about map positions

[@Petty360]

I used to absolutely despise the gun meself, not too bad for me now in the 6.0 world

[@iamaaronification]

Always a good one petty! Ggs never really delved into the chinese lines yet but they seem really mobile and the armour isnt too bad from what it looks like

[@Petty360]

Chinese line is ok. The 121 is quite good these days and the T-34-2 is nice, the WZ-120 is woeful and the T34-1 can be troll

[@simoncalitri5550]

I just won it from a Hero’s war chest or what ever they call it now and wanted to see if it was worth playing since I remember it being quite bad back in the day. Nice review

[@Petty360]

Yeh it's pretty ok these days after the buffs

[@simoncalitri5550]

@@Petty360 I just kept it, and haven’t played it. I have so many premium tanks now that I never touched, even though I know I should. I just don’t see a point in playing something when there is a better version of it. For example the Type 59 compared to T-34-3

[@woody_2245]

gg's .... when i first started playing yrs ago lol this tank was all the rage n i bought it hmm never did get along with it as it was a fire bug n ammo racked alot jmo...n now just sits in the garage collecting the dust

[@Petty360]

Yeh the ammorack through the drive wheel used to pop all the time!!

[@FMFnumber1]

I remember when this was released. Boy did WG make some cash back then.

[@Petty360]

Everyone wanted it!

[@chaueezy]

So is this a premium tank that you can still get in game or no

[@Petty360]

Yes, in the prem TT

[@orbtastic]

I can't be arsed finding the patch notes and they tend to hide them anyway. I've always found this tank absurd, the tech tree version is garbage, has less armour and has to see Tier 10. Yeah it's not as tragic as the tier 7 but it's still bad. Have they buffed the T59/1/3?

[@Petty360]

No they haven't buffed the other Types, they don't really need it. The T34-2 can be good since they buffed it a very long time ago, the 100mm on that tank is fierce

[@davewedgbury1583]

Just tried it again gun ok but how slow .even with traction boost equipment down to 15kph up hills

[@davewedgbury1583]

Use to be good if you had 12 plus skills on your crew. Engine power and the gun stats where terrible. 59-11 is better.

[@Petty360]

59-II is a beautiful tank. Atleast the gun handlings better now on this thing, means you hit stuff
