Sadly, this statement has made more sense than some in this post. Mainly the OP.

Let me try to find it. One second.

This should be it: http://translate.goo...-2.html&act=url

That doesn't even have tracks. I seriously doubt it would make it into the game (no armored cars).

rather see arty go bye bye before a t-50 nerf or anything else.

[Lonelyte]

They can be a pest, but then again, any tank can be in the right tankers hands.  I have the t-50 myself and rarely every play it, doesn't suit my style of play.  Its the teams that are afraid of it and will sit back and camp back near arty, giving them free reign to spot as our team is taken down 1 at a time that annoy the hell out of me.

I think we should have all tanks in this game removed with jousters on tricycles with water pistols to distract the other people personally :P.

I have to admit that I am an avid 50-2 driver and it is some of the most fun you can have in this game, run up to the correct scouting bush, sit there for a few minutes while the spotted enemies get anihalated by your tanks and/or arty, then go after lone distracted tanks or arty. It does get a bit hairy in close quarters or near buildings with 300ms ping and tight turns though, ha.

I have never felt seriously threatened by a T-50/2. (EDIT: In arty at times, yeah. Shouldn't forget that) If one is dancing next to a ridge and spotting me over and over for arty, you could include that as a real threat. Otherwise they splatter very nicely once you land a solid shot, even if it takes a few tries.

Ironically, a T-50/2 is probably far more dangerous to you when you don't even realize its around instead of zipping around razzing you.

If somebody defends them, they have one usually.
I hate the T-50-2.  It's a paper tank with better stats than many that were mass produced.

It would be like looking at the designs for the next Corvette and say "yea this could do 300mph" even if that's insane and could never happen.

The sooner this gets replaced the better.
I wouldn't be so annoyed if it were a REAL tank with these stats or some famous tank of the war that actually ever existed with these phenominal stats.

But the reason the T-50-2 is so amazing in this game... is purely because it was never built, proven, tested, or even so much as a wooden mockup.
So the only proof we have to go by is the claims of its designers over half a century ago that they made up to save their factory during a big purge in the USSR...
Apparently that's enough proof to get a magical motorycycle tank.

He dousnt know all,and you are entitled to an opinion. But what you said was rather short sighted,i gripe about artys and fast tanks a lot to but their necessary for the game or everything would turn into i giant heavy turtlefest.

[Green_Ghost]

hmm iirc they called it a hovercraft not a motorcycle when they had announced a possible nerf..  this was in a reply from the German HE not being worth a hoot any longer on the VK with derp.

[Droppin_Steel]

At least fix the mechanics,,, arty splash within 3 ft of the 50 or 50-2 does 0 damage,,,,same shot does 400+ to tier7+ heavy.  Make em go airborne.....

[Ike_Heshman]

Well, I like playing Arty and TD's.   But I am done buying gold until the t-50 tanks get nerfed.   Or they need to give my Arty  and TD's
a 2 sec reload.

[Fuuro]

I look at the T-50s and all I can think is, 'if a tank turned at top speed like that in real life, it would squish its crew to paste, or at least it would make doing their jobs virtually impossible'.

So you could either cause the vehicle to kill its crew when maneuvering at max speed, or give the crew 75% penalties to their skills for a limited time.

I would find that amusing.

[KilljoyCutter]

The T-50-2, at least, literally does the impossible.  It pulls something like 1.5 Gs in a turn and 3 Gs braking.  The crew would be hamburger inside a Soviet tank, no seatbelts, being thrown around like that.

[Green_Ghost]

I would say it is very frustrating seeing your team scatter off and no one thinking to defend you while you know very well that you are going to be a target..  Arty with zero hits = big loss.  I also enjoy being on a slower but higher tier medium and getting to hunt the little buggers, and I would say the one shot kill does not seem to work many times.  Ez to hit them when you lead, but seems easier to just ram them if you track them makes for great fun

Now thats a vision to have just before eating dinner...Zoom Zoom...Splat!

it is funny how french tanks need an adjustment and it happens in the next patch, but a russian tank needs an adjustment and it is just "someday"
