Has this trash tank anything going for it? Everything besides Gun Depression is crapon this tank, i cant even come close to the 3rd MoE on this thing and feel like a tomato. 3rd MoE on Sheridan was 10x easier than this crap, i feel something is wrong with pilots matchmaking weight, its almost always bottomtier and with this shitty gun and armor you cant do anything. This thing is worse than t6 premium t34-85m wtf... Worst tank ive ever played, how do you play this succesfully? Edit: I could atleast do 1800 average when this tank was given out with the old matchmaker, now i cant come close to this number, you are almost guaranteed to be cannonfodder for t10 tanks. Even trash like Indienpanzer feels like Object 907 compared to this.

 It was for free. That is a big plus.

Wella, to get The 3 Marks you must Be on The best 5% of players, it doesnt matter If The tank is good or not.

 

Apparently it does fairly good If its harder to Mark it than tier x tank.

I dont think the requirements are high, the tank is just so unbelievably bad i cannot imagine an average player doing well in it... requirements for mod 1 and lorraine are higher i bet and those gunmarks were not so difficult. Pilot is garbage in every single game, it gets roflstomped by everything, maybe some 5000 recent wn8 guy can do magic things in this but the average player? hell no. And i say it again, i feel something is wrong with the matchmaking for it, with the old matchmaker this tank was more or less ok but now its a nightmare. Last t8 mediums i marked were t44, indienpanzer and t54 mod 1 with the new matchmaker and i had t10 battles way less, the difference feels gigantic.

Sure, the T25 Pilot 1 is not the best tier 8 medium, but it's not terrible. Personally I quite enjoy it. Try to use your excellent gun handling to snap shot and use your rather thick gun mantlet to bounce some lower tier tanks. Never expose your hull armour. Also, use the top speed of 55kmh as advantage when you can.

Nothing works for me in this tank, its pure trash and the gun handling is not good in my opinion. I cant feel the magic of this mighty pilot.

[Mimos_A]

It's pretty good in my opinion. Great gun handling, decently mobile, hilariously troll turret, really good viewrange. The shel velocity sucks and the engine doesn't do much going uphill, but other than that it's a lot of fun.

 

Are you doing enough assist damage? That gets counted for the mark as well.

TIER 8 in whole is wrong... They always meet 10s and 9s like you have to be lucky as hell to get in to all tier 8 battles and you have to find a unicorn in real life to battle in against tier 7-6.

[spuriousmonkey]

Still, 3 marking a tank is based on the relative performance of others in this tank. Others will have the same issues in this tank and you.

Nothing works? Heating doesn't work? Fluffy dice don't sway back and forth when you're driving? Well damn. Things are bad. 

 

Least my Pilot has a working lavatory and wash basin.

If that's the problem then it's you since others are clearly doing better than you in it.

 

I find it OK, it's no T20 but it's OK.

[adameitas]

well i can only agree that it is one of the ugliest tanks in game..

[MarcoStrapone]

what?

[dan_dix]

Well, here's a noob perspective on it:

- it was "almost" free

- it makes good credits for a F2P noob

- it's challenging but not that bad

 

I find it quite fun - even if I do quite bad with it (had crew in training for a loooooong time + tier 8 pressure) at the same time I have more fun and find it more challenging than say the T-34-85M or other lower tier mediums. It does get some good snapshots, and hull down sometimes you bounce stuff of the turret. But yes, it's not able to fight back much when rushed (a bit slow to retreat, rest of the armor is weak, etc). But catch a good flanking position and the gun gets damage in quite reliably and you can quickly move to the next target, etc. It's not the king of the castle, it can get outplayed by many lights with autoloaders or the T49 for instance, but it's not utterly powerless either

 

And it makes credits.

I liked mine, did rather well in it actually

You know how MoE works. If you can't mark something it's because you don't play the tank well enough, not that the tank is bad.

When u get something for free its better to keep quit rather then complaining about it!

[Hammerhead20]

Mine is still standing in the garage with no battles...

[Bora_BOOM]

I have 5 games in it and 100% WR!

 

Its a good tank
