The 76 Sherman’s might be good in the hands of people who have played for years, but in the hands of people who have just unlocked them, and aren’t as great players, they are horrible. Having to snipe weak points in a tank that is one shot by enemy vehicles is not a good learning ground. It makes the grind unbearable.

@andypants10002 жыл бұрын
I agree. I didnt enjoy the 76mm until the jumbo version. You're up against tanks with serious advantages and the 76mm, whilst it does everything well, is usually at a disadvantage. Panthers will snipe you because mobility isnt good enough to avoid the guns and russian tanks outbrawl you, so you're kind of stuck in the middle trying to find a spot you can hide in whilst shooting out.
@augmentedman2512 жыл бұрын
Honestly, as someone who unlocked and used these tanks as a new player, I gotta disagree with this. Having gone through the 75 Shermans just to reach the 76s provided ample time to get used to the tank and by the time I reached them it felt like a natural progression of the skills I already developed. additionally, the tanks versatility and ability to adapt to almost any role makes them more forgiving in my experience.

It is important to mention that since gaijin reduced the horsepower on all the 76mm gun shermans (except for the jumbo) aswell as the M18 *for no historical reason* the Panther can now outrun and outexcelerate all the 76mm gun shermans. In case you are curious: M4A1(76) and M18 went from 460 Horsepower to 400 Horsepower All M4A2s went from 420 to 410 Horsepower. M4A3(76) and italian M36B1 went from 500 horsepower to 450 horsepower. It is especialy obvious that these changes have no basis in reality because of the complete lack of consistency as the M4A3E2 and M36 still have 500 horsepower even though they have the exact same engine and transmission as the M4A3(76). Not only that but they were deployed before the M4A3(76). Gaijin made this change a couple of updates ago and didnt mention it in any of their changelogs. The entire war thunder community should have been outraged about this but since gaijin made this change in silence most players didnt even notice it. Even the U.S. players. If we allow gaijin to make random biased ahistorical changes to the U.S. tanks it means that they can make the same ahistorical biased changes to all tanks in the game.

One thing worth noting that wasn't mentioned- the (W) suffix on the 76mm Shermans refers to the fact that they have wet ammo stowage. Most of the time this won't really do much for you, since a lot of stuff at their tier will oneshot if it pens anyway, but it does remove stowage from easy to hit spots like beside the driver or in the center and sides of the hull, and also reduces the risk that your ammo will cook off quickly due to a fire.

That T20 moment made me even sadder. I bought it a few months ago while grinding America and it became my favorite tank in the US tech tree. It was perfectly balanced at 5.7, as your armor was shit, gun mediocre, but very good mobility. This plus the M4A3E8 and M18 was so much fun to play with. They should've kept the T20 at 5.7 and just put the Easy 8 at 5.3 because there should be no way an Easy 8 fights Tiger II Hs. But, no I guess the T20 is equal to the fuckin' Jagdpanther and it facing *M48A2Cs* is ""balanced"". Still happy I bought it, remains one of my favorites although if I wanna play America, I now play the M4A2 and M24. Side note: The M4A2/M24 combo was probably the best event combo ever until Gaijin moved all the M24s to Rank II because reasons. Still a good SL grinder duo.
@spudeism2 жыл бұрын
What's even more sad about T20 that in uptiers you might face IS-3 against which you have no way of killing it in typical encounters. As far as I know only shot straight from the side, between the the track wheels from like 200m or less away is the only way with 76mm gun. Otherwise you have to resort on trying to break the gun barrel or tracks and hope your teammates can finish it off.

About M4A2 - It has 4.0 br. Matchmaker can put in -1 or +1 br. 5.0 br - rare, few tanks, weak, suffers from 5.3-5.7- and (rare) 6.0 means no one play that - no uptiers higher than with the 3.7 sherman. 2.7 br - rare, suffers from constant uptiers to 3.7. Legit setups in trees of USA, Italy, France, Sweden. Not very popular. It means that with 4.0 br you will get into the same battles as with 3.7 so it is 100% worth it. You can check my logic yourself person who is reading this. Br system with decimals is cursed. Use it for your advantage.

My favorite part about the jumbo is its ammo cap and placement. It's not a joke to be able to say that you can reliably carry all 100+ rounds., my standard loadout is 20 smoke, 20 APCR, 54 APHE, and 10 HE. It's completely okay to do this purely because of where the ammo is stored, below the turret. If you get hit and ammo racked, you were going to die regardless, because someone can see your side where the turret is. And with it's good reload rate of roughly 5 seconds, you can keep blasting at panthers and tigers easily. It's stupidly fun, especially urban maps. Just avoid any large maps like Kursk.

I STILL do not get why they reclassified the M18 GMC as a light tank from a tank destroyer. If they wanted it to have scouting, they could have just given it scouting; both of the ASU’s have scouting but are classed as tank destroyers, so it wouldn’t have even been breaking their own rules since that “rule” had already been broken.

I have been rolling around in my Sherman’s for a while now getting kind of beat up, decided to try out the T-14 after watching this and now I’m beating everyone else up, this thing can take a hit, or 10

When you're describing parts of the tank like the mantlet, turret cheeks or front plate ect. You should show what part of the tank that is like maybe show the X-ray view of the armor so what part your talking about is highlighted I know I was confused when I first started learning this stuff for longer than I would care to admit 😅

I got a 75% discount for the T20 and I have to say it's quite fun. It's one of those tanks that have no real advantage but somehow still work perfectly fine

For the part with the Jumbo sherman, a sort of hidden pro to it is that many tiger and panther players don't seem to know how to tell a regular m4a1 and jumbo apart, and just try to center mass or even shoot at the turret just to harmlessly ricochet off or just be plain absorbed. This gives you ample time to get two shots in before either one could reload their next shot, which is enough to kill them. A perfect example is a game I had where I managed to solo four tigers at the same time on Poland (In the town section just below A). Two came around a corner, shot one in the side, other swung around and shot my turret doing absolutely nothing, APHE to the cupola, apcr to the co/driver. Two more just hit the road into the town and start firing, bouncing off, meanwhile I just hit a cupola shot on both of them until they died. Neither one tried to move behind cover when the only crew I hit on both first shots were the gunner/commander, like they just figured that a 75mm sherman couldn't possibly pen them from the front. I'm sure it's a mix of german players rushing tigers and assuming they're Rommel, then to just to get stomped on by a "lowly Sherman". Panthers, aside from the A type, are honestly the only ones I try to avoid frontally, mantle shots can be a pain in the rare case where they know to slightly angle the turret. The Panther A, like the sherman, has a giant gunner port that for some reason I never see bushed at all (not complaining though).

Guide to killing kitty cats: Tiger I: Slap the cupola. Repeat until dead. Or just hit the hull. Panther: APCR is a good friend in the 75mm. Slap the turret cheek and repeatedly turn the gunner into a fine pink mist. Tiger II: Cry? (Or just slap the turret cheek on a P, beg for the British to save you on a H).
