Sturgeon Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Alright guys, I want a Tier 8 (matchmaking) machine that is somewhere in between a medium and a light. The only real option appears to be the T-44, and I liked playing the T-44 way back when, so I was thinking I'd get it again.However, I am pretty close to the T-54 Lwt, which I want to get too even though it's Tier 9 MM. So, which should I get first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnsignExpendable Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 The T-44 was great back in the day, but I think it got power-creeped out of greatness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted July 26, 2015 Report Share Posted July 26, 2015 Almost any of the new tier 7 lights are better, IMO, if you want fast. T-44 has fast and it has armor, but not quite enough of either to shine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostCosmonaut Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Haven't driven the T-44, but the LTTB gets tier 8 MM and seems pretty similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeuCeaMia Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Since you're close the T-54 lightweight I presume you have the LTTB? All the T-44 has over the LTTB is better gun depression (-7 vs -3), hit-points and front turret armour. In most other categories and especially mobility wise the LTTB is better for the same MM. Still it depends on how much you value gun depression, personally I find the WZ-131 more balanced and a lot people favor the Bulldog for its deadly auto-loader. For what to get, the T-54 lightweight is a team battle/e-sports staple for a reason. The T-44 on the other-hand hasn't changed much after the LB-1 and 680 hp engine was added years ago back when there were only 3 tier 8 mediums and none of them had over 210mm of penetration.

Sturgeon Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Leu, I haven't bought the LTTB; I've got a stockpile of free exp. I already own a Bulldog and RU 251. I do not and have no plans to play in competitions. Word at WoTLabs is the LTTB's poor gun depression and high silhouette combine to make getting shots with the otherwise great gun very difficult. They also seem to do a lot of comparing tanks to the T-44, and several purps say they enjoy it. Given that there's not a whole lot else at that battle tier that is that well-rounded while having good speed, and that I'm prone to "scrubitis" with really excellent tanks, I am interested in the T-44. If it's just a dog, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperComrade Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Yuri seal clubs a lot with the T67, from what he postsT-44 is great at Tier 8, but struggles the moment it gets out of Tier 8 unless you're willing to use gold. It is severely power creeped by newer medium, though. The gun is its biggest failing, low DPM, low penetration, average damage, merely ok soft stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeps_Guns_Tanks Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Better than any German tier 6 heavy And that makes it fun to drive around in and make outlandish claims. Like the Germans stole the design from the Japs. I think I've only played mine once though so don't take my word for it. Tied 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnsignExpendable Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 I've only seen it perform in medium strongholds, but there it pales in comparison to hordes of Cromwells massacring everything in their path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
