Permanently BannedThe whole reason the is2 has 160 damage and 6 second reload is because long ago the penetration was capped at 170 for all vehicles. Which led to a lot of bouncing, given the long reload it made the is2 super inconsistent. Much like the jackson was.
But now with its much higher penetration I'm certain that it can return back to its former aesthetic glory.
The changes I propose are:
- Reload of 9-10 seconds
- 33% damage upon deflection.
- Slightly increased accuracy
- Fixing the broken scatter angles of the is2.
- 240 damage

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Not really sure what would be the point of it.
Don't fix what isn't broken.
Its accuracy is completely horrible against infantry, but thats pretty much it.

Actually the IS2 really is OP. It should stay the same but with less frontal armour.Agreed.

As far as VS infantry goes it's fairly standard as far as the heavy tanks go. It's scatter distance is only 1.4 higher than that of the Tigers and they both have the same scatter angle. But it does have a much less harsh AoE profile making 1 shots with the IS2 more common than with the Tiger.

It 1 shots if it's able to hit its target. But that's a rare phenomenon. I don't care if there's a difference of 1.4 or 1.4*10^9, the Tiger will hit infantry far more often than the IS-2.

IS-2 is fine now, it doesnt need to get changed, when it had 9-10 second reload, it basically hit infantry with every shot (due to low scatter), usually wiping them with 1 shot, so you could shoot & scoot and protect it vs enemy armor with ZIZ AT guns

IS-2s are already almost uncounterable in 1v1s...they deserve a nerf, mostly armor

OKW has zero issues. Just make Panther more accessible by reducing the MP cost for Ost teching.

The cost is the issue for OKW...if you are against a good soviet he'll have 2 IS-2s + ATG by the time of the first P5.
Ost has more issues as the high armor of the Is-2 bounces PAK and T3 shots very often, also PAKs do shit because mostly the incendiary arty burns them. Is-2 outperforms the Tiger as well.
I played shit tons of 1v1s, 2v2s but IS-2s are a massive problem for axis
