I was honestly stunned that this wasn't heavily nerfed upon release here on Console. The only difference from PC I think is that Console's turret traverse is 2 degrees slower, and that's about it.
About time we finally got tanks that weren’t dead on arrival. Hopefully the VZ-55 and Czech heavies are just as good as PC because the last lines we got was the Sturmtiger which is rubbish and the rinoceronte which is also rubbish
Hey Petty, The springs are because they are part of the legend/myth of Pérák who was a member of the resistance against the Nazis during the occupation of Prague and this person used a pair of springs under the sole of his shoes to make great jumps and escape from the Nazis.
I do look forward to getting my hands on this filthy lil tank lol. The fear of it has subsided as most of the people in it thankfully aren't too handy with it. Though the few handy people with it have been an absolute ball ache to face against or race against for damage lol. Always good to see it's potential in yours and Ducks hands, top videos you're both on form today getting the videos out same day as the tank release. Was stunned at the price tbh, gonna be hard to talk myself out of treating myself to it at that price, is it a week long offer or 3 day thing? 10/10 as always though bud!
Yeh like 5350 gold or whatever for base bundles well cheap! People have been playing it far to aggressive, it's great hull down and you have to pick your momentd but the two tap has so much potential
Could you make a set of videos of How to? For new players such as how to hull down ? How to side scrape ? How to recognized map positioning for our type of tank
1500 HP is the norm for Tier VIII Heavies. There are a few with more and some with less but that seems to be about average. Pretty sure I'll buy this tank although I'm not a big fan of the 3D Doll they released for this tank (already unlocked with season pass). Wish she was wearing tanker kit instead of that outfit she's got on.
I love it, but I still wonder what is the best for me: barrel or not... because I usually go too far and it's not the best when you need ages for reloading...😅 GG BTW
The T56 prammo is also AP, not APCR. Thus is got 5% normalisation apart from superior pen over the regular AP. Apart from 4 HE shells I use prem AP only.
I'm assuming the price tag was due to the upcoming heavy line and to promote it. I ended up receiving it as a gift, and my oh my I do like the alpha. Always a fan of the hard hitting "derpy" guns. It's not even that derpy once you get used to its gun. I like it a lot. Don't really rely on armor anymore due to prammo spam but hey the gun is fun to use on tier 7s lol. Kinda ridiculous but hey WG made it so
Probably because of the single shot version of the gun. But still doesn't make sense. Shouldn't have been available on the tank at all. But hey, that's wg for ya :D
It’s not OP It’s only the alpha damage. The armour outside of the turret is cheese, the tank is so slow, the gun handling is seriously bad I regret buying it. Thankfully it was only free gold from previous seasons so I didn’t spend actual money on it
it's ok; but why buy it? it'll be a reward tank at some point or given as a "special purchase" option for half price. i can wait. and no tank is invincible - i've had no difficulty in talking these heavies down.
It's at half price right now mate as part of their "special discount" for the release of the line. 10,550 gold is its actual price but you could buy it for 5350 at base. (I do agree with you tho it will be free at somepoint no doubt)
Share with the class then lol, I had a quick look around but nothing came up lol. I'd usually guess it's to help gauge pitch etc, but I'm pretty sure a spirit level in the tank would do 😂
@@Petty360 Basically spring heel jack lol. And yeah the skins, interesting? It doesn't really add much, I prefer the Tiger A1 skin, or the new Leo A1 skin, they actually add something to the tank to change its aesthetics in a meaningful way.
Bs, it's the latest so they'll let it play like the greatest! Give a month and if your any good with it, all you play agianst is 9s and 10s. Bye, bye greatest... where's the Charlene? Know what I mean?
Watching the games its going to be so op against low tier tanks. I thought WG would have learnt by now regarding op tanks. They will then be to afraid to nerf it when players complain. Forget playing tech tree teir 6 ,7 and eight tanks for a while. Come and try CW mode more fun.😀
@@Petty360 Got 5his tank because of the price but its not for me. Sluggish and the gun you have to be in there faces, and in tier 10games nit happening. If only I could get a refund xD
Won't waste the gold. It's just gonna get nerfed. That's what WG does. Sells it with good competitive ability. Then as soon as the crybaby's cry it's nerfed. No thanks.
I was honestly stunned that this wasn't heavily nerfed upon release here on Console. The only difference from PC I think is that Console's turret traverse is 2 degrees slower, and that's about it.
Yeh caught me off guard too, and the price they released it for!
The Accuracy, Aimtime and DPM are exactly the same as on pc, only the turret traverse is 2 degrees worse
@@Petty360 I see what I did. I had effective values turned on for tanks.gg instead of base values, which would explain the tiny differences.
About time we finally got tanks that weren’t dead on arrival. Hopefully the VZ-55 and Czech heavies are just as good as PC because the last lines we got was the Sturmtiger which is rubbish and the rinoceronte which is also rubbish
Nice review Petty. Great job on your replays discussing the option between the two guns.
Cheers mate 👍
Was waiting for your thoughts before picking it up. So amazing that you get new tank reviews up so quickly 🙌🙌
I do try, didn't have much time this week but happy I could get the games and get it out
Hey Petty, The springs are because they are part of the legend/myth of Pérák who was a member of the resistance against the Nazis during the occupation of Prague and this person used a pair of springs under the sole of his shoes to make great jumps and escape from the Nazis.
Yeh someone else point that out and that's definitely a cool touch! (Although I'm still not a fan of it on the end of the barrel 😅)
@@Petty360 I agree😁
Great Review... You sold me on getting it. It looks like a lot of fun and I love autoloader's.
It's dirt cheap for a tier 8 heavy which is great
I do look forward to getting my hands on this filthy lil tank lol. The fear of it has subsided as most of the people in it thankfully aren't too handy with it. Though the few handy people with it have been an absolute ball ache to face against or race against for damage lol.

@@Petty360 yeah I'm guilty of that mistake, soon as I went hull down and played more like a T29 with a 2tap it worked beautifully lol
Tank is great maybe for now OP but WG nerfed him maybe. IN right hands tank is really really good. Good video bro. GG
Cheers mate, doubt they'll nerf it tbh. Very very rare they do that.
Thanks for the helpful review. The ram fail in the first game did make me chuckle!
Ikr right, I was sure I'd finish him off 😅
Could you make a set of videos of How to? For new players such as how to hull down ? How to side scrape ? How to recognized map positioning for our type of tank
I could try but I'm not sure how good I'd be at that sort of thing.
Wotc Academy on YT is really good for that sort of thing

It's s great tank and well worth how cheap it is
Good review as always. 👍
Cheers mate 👍

GG BTW
Both are nice options but i agree it's a tough choice!
Great review! Like 👍🏻
Cheers mate 👍
The T56 prammo is also AP, not
APCR. Thus is got 5% normalisation apart from superior pen over the regular AP. Apart from 4 HE shells I use prem AP only.
Yup, just the UI shows it as APCR for some stupid reason
Almost tempted to try dissappearing tank mode again. Does not seem to bad. Is it worth the gold?
It's extremely cheap for a very good tank
I had free gold from dupes and decided to pick this up. Mad the ammo swapper works on an autoloader 🤣
Ikr, the most random thing it works on it
@@Petty360 it works an absolute treat as well. I actually played some tonks on Wednesday and me likey this tank a lot

Kinda ridiculous but hey WG made it so
Yeh the guns mean to lower tiers 😂
It's extremely cheap 5.3k base is mad
Since when the ammo swapper works with auto loader 😳? Mixed feelings about it tbh
Probably because of the single shot version of the gun. But still doesn't make sense. Shouldn't have been available on the tank at all. But hey, that's wg for ya :D
For some reason just on this and the Lioness.
It's a weird one tbh, kinda unbalanced.
Would you say it's better than the bisonte??
Miles better
460 alpha are u kidding me wtf
Yup, lot of alpha!
I kind of want this thing now just not spending much these days.
That ps (or xbox:) version looks so much better than pc one :(
I think PC looks Amazing tbf tho
It’s not necessary to switch ammo because of poor pen of apcr.
Depends if you load full gold or not
How does this tank compare to the T29?
It's a tier 8 so it would be unfair to compare it tbh, just as good hull down tho and it absolutely slaps
Another OP auto loading tank...whoopiee! Why doesn't WG make every tank an autoloader and be done with it.
It's not op at all. The only good thing about it is the alpha dmg and that's it. I'd rather play the ragnarok or t54e2 over this.
It’s not OP
It’s only the alpha damage. The armour outside of the turret is cheese, the tank is so slow, the gun handling is seriously bad
I regret buying it. Thankfully it was only free gold from previous seasons so I didn’t spend actual money on it
Honestly guys run APCR & He it's amazing 😍 you can two shot a tear 8 light tank
Full Prem is definitely a way for people to play this, the stock pen can be really annoying
Great tank and only 6600 gold! Hits for 460, Boom!
Yes, but sadly a lot of Tier 10s to face.
@@falkf.6971 First 6 matches, all TX games. Didn't do so hot
Base bundles actually 5400 too which is mad cheap, solid tank slaps so hard, stay hull down and your laughing
it's ok; but why buy it? it'll be a reward tank at some point or given as a "special purchase" option for half price. i can wait. and no tank is invincible - i've had no difficulty in talking these heavies down.

(I do agree with you tho it will be free at somepoint no doubt)
@@Petty360 - yea, it is 1/2 off.....my mistake. but i do see it being a reward tank for an op or during an upcoming season.
The springs actually have meaning.. Google the name on the skin amd you'll see why 😊 very interesting read
Share with the class then lol, I had a quick look around but nothing came up lol. I'd usually guess it's to help gauge pitch etc, but I'm pretty sure a spirit level in the tank would do 😂
Or for common sense sake, allows you to rest the barrell whilst it's being worked on, depending on the strength of the springs ofc lol
Yeh googled it, thats pretty cool tbf, I'm still not a fan of the looks tho 😅
@@Petty360 Basically spring heel jack lol. And yeah the skins, interesting? It doesn't really add much, I prefer the Tiger A1 skin, or the new Leo A1 skin, they actually add something to the tank to change its aesthetics in a meaningful way.
Hello
Hi.
I got it on Giveaway todayyy😏❤
GG 👍😁
"...It is What it Is...", otherwise great review!
Cheers 👍
5.5 damage?
2.1 xp?
Yup, that's a fair amount for a tier 8 and the kills add to the base xp
Bs, it's the latest so they'll let it play like the greatest! Give a month and if your any good with it, all you play agianst is 9s and 10s. Bye, bye greatest... where's the Charlene? Know what I mean?
If firing Prem it's still good against the 9s+10s you just have to be less aggressive.
Watching the games its going to be so op against low tier tanks. I thought WG would have learnt by now regarding op tanks. They will then be to afraid to nerf it when players complain. Forget playing tech tree teir 6 ,7 and eight tanks for a while.
Come and try CW mode more fun.😀
Stop crying
Yup, lower tiers will suffer massively from this
@@MadsCC79 doesn't bother me dont play dissappearing tank mode any more
I buttered one in the t 29. So it's not that bad kids just need to stop whining.
@@dougbright4387 properly had a muppet playing it😀
lucky there was no arty
Always blessing your lucky stars when there isn't any

That's only happened once with the Armadillo tbf
@@Petty360 actually it's happened several times over the years. Locust, amx chaffee, e25, just to name a few
It won’t get nerfed because it isn’t even that good
