Look at those hidden gun stats!

 

This tank is a pure rip off, and WG should be ashamed. Which of course they are not,

This is the sort of tank that should be retired permanently or just given away maybe to new players.

There isn't anything actually wrong with the tank its just a very old premium in a game that has moved on considerably.

Compare this to pz V/IV and laugh. Worst tier 5 tank on the game. https://tanks.gg/com...-iii-k?t=pz-viv

 

I've seen some pretty bizarre tank compares, but holy hell what is this? It has 80hp more though, much balens.

May I ask you whether you  read the comments regarding this tank before, not just now, but also in the 2 other occasions you offered that tank in the last months?:P

 

This tank is bad and the gun softstats are so horribl that I would call them a bug. But there was no feedback given when players just mentioned how bad it is.

Just compare the III ausf. K and the Pz T 25.

 

Now go figure why people say the ausf. K is a bad deal.

 

Edit: Might as well compare them:

 

Ausf. K:

114 more DPM.

0.01 better accuracy.

0.2 s better aiming time.

30 m better view range.

Better hull traverse.

 

Pz T25

VASTLY better gun handling: Differences of 0.11 on the move and 0.11 on turret traverse.

20 km/h higher top speed.

9,63 more horsepower per tonne.

Better frontal armor.

Better side armor.

 

So would you rather want a slow scout with abysmal gun handling or a mobile MT with an actual gun.

 

EDIT2: To put the gun handling into a perspective, the ausf. K has same gun handling while on the move as the tier 5 clicker, Grille.

this might be the worst gunhandling in the game...

 

This gunhandling is simply not acceptable :D

At least Hydro has an actual tier 5 gun and preferential MM. Pz III K has no saving grace.

Dont be lazy and read a few more replies, the thing is trash. While it MIGHT not be THE worst t5 tank, it has absolutely no value to anyone but the most dedicated wehraboo collector.

Ýes, you can have one lucky battle with it, but it still isn't worth your money.

Hidden gun stats are as hidden as the ground resistances of a vehicle. Players asked for them to be shown in the vehicle data sheet in the game client for more than 2-3 years (since the data sheet and comparsion tool was implemeneted).

 

The hidden gun stats could also be called "the gun stabilisation".

I am only writing this so that nobody else makes the same mistake in the future, so that we as a community can avoid making posts that are not constructive in the future:

Apparently, pointing out that the answer to a WG staff question was already obvious in the previous posts, that..let's phrase this in a "constructive" way, the WG staff must have accidentally overlooked, and quoting the majority of them for the WG staff, so that the answer was readily available in a single post is not "constructive".

Are you taking the mick, Vuque? This is a very poor tank. It is pretty sluggish, poorly armoured, and, above all, its gun is rubbish - the dispersion values when moving or turning the tank are simply awful. Substantially worse, in fact, than a derp KV-2's or a T49's using the 152 mm derp gun (and that is without vert stabs, mind). And all this on a 75mm gun :amazed: 

This tank feels like it had its potential artificially curtailed. I don't think anybody should be surprised if people give it the cold shoulder.

Really wtf is this input from a mod? I can only think of:

 - you have a thing for Simona2K

 - it is a bot response

 - WG have tasked you with encouraging debate, and you are not very good at doing it subtly

 

My opinion is with point 2, but perhaps you hadn't woken up this morning - but a thread of purely negative comments and you then ask for justification?

Got it one year ago, mostly for collector's purpose.

Otherwise it's total waste of money, utter unplayable garbage, and probably the worst premium in this game.
