=gRiJ=Roman- 672 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) What about a KV2 monster so that the PzIII and PzIV have big challenge? http://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/soviet/soviet_KV-2.php Edited June 11, 2019 by 15[Span.]/JG51Spartan Link to post Share on other sites
migmadmarine 307 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 If we get a battle that is more suitable for it, sure, but very few were left in Russian service by 1943 to my knowledge. There were a couple captured examples used by German divisions, but I don't think at Kursk. Link to post Share on other sites

216th_Jordan 1283 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I'd like it but I'd also appreciated if TC hadn't gone in with modelling the most uber taks there were. Some more medium tanks are way more fun gameplay wise IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
Thad 1619 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I've mentioned it before... but as a mission builder, I'd like to see a Russian player T-70 and the German Pz38 t. I know they are light tanks but one could put together some interesting battles using the lighter player tanks. 😁 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
-=PHX=-SuperEtendard 1398 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 The KV-2 is more appropiate of an early 1941 scenario. Link to post Share on other sites
=gRiJ=Roman- 672 Posted June 12, 2019 Author Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Here we have a nice war story ... Was it a Kv1 or a KV2? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Raseiniai Edited June 12, 2019 by 15[Span.]/JG51Spartan Link to post Share on other sites
F/JG300_Gruber 495 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) I'd rather have a playable BT7, much more fun to drive around in this speedy thing ! For early war scenarios against PzIII it would be a nice addition to the game. Plus they had a longer service life than KV2s and were produced in far superior numbers.

SCG_wtornado 144 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 It was late coming but I like the IS-2 Nashorn for the German side. My scout vehicle would be (I know it sounds weird and not well known) a Sd.Kfz. 234/2 Puma with it's 50 cm or 75 cm gun zipping down the road at 90 kph on big maps scouting for our main formations to find out where the enemy is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Finkeren 6032 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 There are loads of other vehicles I'd like to see before a KV-2. For now I think we should stay with ones that fit our mid-1943 scenario. Chief among them is the StuG III. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
SCG_judgedeath3 265 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 The failed tank KV-2 that was only produced in few numbers and had bad combat results, poor vision in it, bad side armour, big target and due to the weight broke down a lot and was slow compared to the normal KV-1. And the biggest issue: if the ground is uneven the turrets weight is so bad that it cant traverse the turret, need the ground to be completely even to be able to traverse the turret. Yeah have fun.

InProgress 923 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 There is tons of diffrent tanks and other vehicles that were produced and used in numbers higher than 3 that should be in the game. Weird creations like kv2 makes no sense to me. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
stormridersp 1 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I would prefer to have a proper sim first, then more content later. Link to post Share on other sites
Torrens 32 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 KV2 is all fun and games in other arcade tank games, but in a simulator experience I don't think it has much to offer in 1943. There is just too much negatives. It is a massive target so everything will hit it from 2km. It can't move its turret if sits in the slightest slope at all. The turret will get stuck if its not positioned correctly when firing, it can't see, can't move, gun elevation makes the tank useless anywhere but flat roads, horrible reload. I highly doubt it would be a fun experience in a simulator setting. Leave it for arcade games. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
SCG_judgedeath3 265 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I can only see it useful for the role it was built to do in simulator game: knocking out bunkers and machine gun nests, forget any tank combat in that big box. Link to post Share on other sites

Another tank I always was fascinated of is the M3 Lee/Grant. Hopefully we will get it in another TC title after CAP. Link to post Share on other sites

As a test I have shot moving AI-trucks with my trusty Tiger over 3,3 km. A KV-2 is something like 4x the size ? I have one in WT and WoT but I do not see the fun of it. If I am correct it was build to blow up things like bunkers/pill boxes/MG-nests etc Link to post Share on other sites

Two tracks, two two engines, two generators, two loaders and an L/71. What do you want more? (except speed) I am quite interested in the Ferdinand's driving experience, because it is gasoline-electric. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
manintan2016 17 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Look at history. The Ferdinand had poor performance due to somewhere around 15 mph speed, less over broken ground. But, it would be interesting to see that in the game Link to post Share on other sites
Yogiflight 1156 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 The Ferdinand was more like a heavily armored selfpropelled antitank gun, than a tank. Place it before the battle starts where you want it to be through the battle, and hope the enemy won't win, because you won't be able to withdraw it. Link to post Share on other sites

If someone is interested I can post the passage in the book after i get home. But i have the German version so most of you won't be able to read it.

InProgress 923 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I also came across Ferdinand in one of memoirs of german soldier. They loved it, they got one of it to help them in defence of some town. And it alone destroyed all enemy tanks and forced rest to retreat. They had to burn it down later because no fuel. But this one thing saved their lives so of course they loved it. I think this book was called "blood red snow" or bloody snow, something like that. Highly recommending it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
