#Please fix the 76 and the tiger

~~The tiger and the 76 both turn too slowly in first and reverse, and their first and reverse gear speeds are far too slow. it used to be 7kmh for both, then T17 nerfed these tanks for some reason (but kept the panther first and reverse spin rate much higher than previously).

Now the tiger and 76 are both extremely un fun to play. Also can the tiger's turret speed please be improved? Why would you just make the tiger way worse in basically every way than the 76? it previously was fun to use, now it just sucks and drives like a block of cheese.

Also, the tiger gets caught on all kinds of random things that the 76 doesn't get caught on. A while ago when you changed the engine noise to be roughly equivalent to a 1940s lawnmower, you also re-introduced hitbox issues.

Plz fix!~~

I'm updating my original post. The Tiger and 76 have been given acceptable turn speeds, but I still feel they should be given slightly faster reverse speed.

Additionally the tiger still has a weird hitbox on its bottom, resulting in strange hitches or flips over objects.
At this point, the main issue I have with the Tiger is its extremely slow turret speed. Why does the Panther's turret, as well as the American tank turrets, as well as the Soviet turrets, move so much more quickly? It makes no logical sense in a game like this.

To combat the overpowered nature of AT tanks I believe that the tiger and 76 should both have first and reverse gear speeds baselined to 8 kmh

#

And 1st gear turn speeds improved

It also seems the turret bounces up and down more when stopping with the Tiger, did anyone else notice this? Perhaps it’s part of the recoil mechanics

Then maybe shift in 2nd gear?
The Panther is the only heavy I would say turns worse, which is weird when you look at the stats. Seems like they wanted to have it behave more like medium and failed in an epic manner...

I wanted to give my 2 cents on this thread (now that I just discovered it lol)

The Tiger needs to be looked at again, it went from one of the best tanks in the game to one of the worst tanks in the game overnight. I agree with what JVCK about the driving, but as someone who mainly guns, the Tiger is genuinely the most unfun tank in the game to use, which pains me because I used to love playing in such an iconic WW2 tank. It’s extremely slow and clunky (I get some people will say that’s what a Tiger should be like, I get that, but not to this extent) it gets stuck on everything and the turret rotation speed takes 3-5 business days to rotate to a target, although I feel the ammo counts on the tank is fine. Buff the turret rotation speed (even if it’s slightly slower than the Panther/Pz 4), and the handling changes JVCK suggested and I think this goes back to one of the best tanks in the game very easily.

The 76 on the other hand I feel is in an alright state, I think from the limited amount of driving and playing with good drivers that it’s at least bearable compared to the Tiger, definitely both tanks need buffs in regards to low gear handling but I feel the 76 is in a much better state. My biggest issue with the 76 is the low HE count. The 76 used to have 60 HE and 25 AP (75J still does) now it has 30. I’m not against giving the 75J a large amount of HE to at least make it more viable but the 76 needs a buff in regards to its HE count, honestly I feel like most heavies do. I feel like the baseline should be 40 HE for most heavies, and still the fact that ammo depots do not prioritize HE first is an issue still, perhaps giving us 2 ammo depots to build would be good? One that prioritizes HE and another that prioritizes AP? If either we got 2 ammo depots or HE being prioritized I wouldn’t mind the lower HE counts, as it would be relatively easy and fast to reload.

Anyways, that’s just my opinion and thoughts on this old thread, justice for the Tiger and 76.

Please reverse the changes to the tiger turret turn speed, its so slow for absolutely no reason, I understand its a slower cannon but its got a hydraulic turret,
