everytime i read these patches i feel like wargaming is just f***ing up my favorite tank (VK30.01P). And dont tell me adding weight to it is a buff. it aint. because now, PW ratio is no longer about 17,5 but instead its 13,5. And suuuure, its now a “heavy” but the tank isnt suited for the Heavy tank role without some armor layout changes. Cmon WG, keep it as a medium or just change its class without changing the tank to make it WORSE. If you wanna change it, at least do it the same way you changed the T-34-85M! yea i didnt forget! you basicly made the Rudy useless.
