the ST-a1's are not crap, they are brutal to get the mods done, and till you get the heat rounds your just shooting spitballs.. BUT!! When finally maxed out, it turns into a very nice, low profile, great reverse speed machine. when trying to max it out, I put it in the same category as the US M26, brutal to use till done.. but unlike the STa1, M26 sux after your done also. It does pretty well as a flank tank, just dont EVER drive it in city streets, your doomed before the game starts.
Face2Glass, It literally has nothing that makes it special. Bad gun, bad armour, bad speed, bad manuerverability, and its terrible stock. For a tank to be somewhat good, it has to have at least one of these things working for it.
I've researched them all... And i love them, but please add some tank destroyer of ww2, there is lot of stuff in the forum. I'm quite happy that u added type 93 apfsds to the normla type 74 btw
Let's not forget the O-I.
But because they nerfing japanese tanks so much that i no longer want to see anymore japanese ww2 tanks because they don't use the historical pens and now the japanese guns became even worse than any other nations and for some reason they are still at the same br...
on ground there is exactly 1 Type90 against XM1, M1, M1IP, M1A1 or T-72, 64b, 80, 80U or Leopard L/44, 2k, 2A4, 2A5. tell me, why should i want to play JP tanks on hightier or any other tanks if its name is not Chi-Nu II. persanally i have stopped doing it on same day as my Type90 got spaded.
What do you mean? With the ''excellent Type 90'' Japan is doing perfectly fine! Here have another Type 74 in the form of over tiered Type 74G sealed behind a paywall to build a better lineup !
And don't worry, in the next patch all Japanese gun will become even WORSE! The Japanese ground forces will be murdered by OP AP rounds!
Work as intended....
Oh crap is that a T2 ??? everyone be losing their minds and got baited by this new plane and forgot the real problem with this tech tree....
Japanese is the easiest and most fun to uptier. Type 89 wipes all the top tier stuff with APDS, and just destroys aircraft and Heli's with ATGMs. Not to mention i score at least 2 skill matters ribbons a match with the type 75 that is a black hole to any aphe out there when played right. Also the SPRG is fun for a high tier troll.
You nerfed soooo much to the Japanese guns that the Type 5 gun is no longer the highlight of Japanese tier 3. This thing used to be one of the most powerful 75mm gun and now it become worse than any 75 and 76mm guns because of pen calculation formal they are using. And for some reason it is still in the same br or no buff to the RoF. The firefly or m4 sa50 can pen more than 180mm in just 6+ seconds while the Japanese guns barely pen 150 (will be even worse in 1.87) and has 7 sec aced, smh.

Premium Tiger need smoke grenades
Well I can say for certain, the ST-a1's are crap. Need downtier now!
And that's where I stopped and went French. And then I hit 15k SL repair costs and shelved the French too.

I_NAMELESS_I, GAIJIN ADD THE O-I
Yes, please this!
Leopard 2A5 next update!
YEEESSS!! pumped
If only they had added a tier 7 tank for Japan this patch along with the T-2 :( Japan could've been the most OP nation for once.
You mean Japan could have had 66% of a full lineup that's competitive in its entirety?
tizianenel, Also, Japan IS getting a tier 7 tank: The Type 90. :)

TBH Japanese gameplay was stale until 6.0 and higher. None of the vehicles stand out until then.
Junkyone, imagine that it was stale before, now its even worse than stale.
