I bought all of the realistic skins. Nice to support community members but it will also (hopefully) lead to more $$ for tournaments in the future which is Relic should have been doing this from the start instead of silly cheese commanders.
Most things look pretty good in the patch, aside from maybe the lack of shrecks for OKW and the teller change.
One thing that has been at the back of my mind for awhile regarding changes is to the Brumbar is how well is does at damaging medium tanks and how effective it is vs medium guns.
If I've worked it out correctly:
Vs Front armour (not sure how to calculate min / max range)
M4 - 46%
Cromwell - 46%
T-34/76 - 38%
E8 - 63%
Comet - 73%
T-34/85 - 54%
M36 - 85%
Firefly - 92%
Su-85 - 73%
What do people think? Can anyone work out Brumbar vs Med tanks (time to kill for each)?
I feel like it might need a small armour reduction depending on how it performs in the patch.
Its in a similar place to the WP shell of the Comet - a strong ability that would probably need re balancing but both are pretty buggy in the current state. If you re balanced the ability without fixing how buggy it is, it would just vanish never to be seen again. I don't ever tend to use it because of how unreliable it is (pretty much every time I have it fails).
