How could the developers even release such a tank? Deprived of the comfort of the game and the originality of the class gameplay, the most unplayable tank in the random house.
Hello tankers! With you Wotpack and today we want to draw your attention to the equipment, which, due to the characteristics of the performance characteristics, is morally obsolete and lost in the current random house - a Chinese medium tank T-34-2.
Let's start from the very beginning - the transfer of technology to the top. The fact is that this unit has such a structure of the pumping tree that without an injection of freedom, you will have to “suffer” for a long time. Okay, you can put up with the fact that you first need to open the chassis, we see this on many cars. Let's say you fogged up the top radio and the pre-top engine and opened it on the predecessor and got a 100 mm gun from it.
Circled in green are the modules that could be researched on the T-34-1
But not so fast, the tower is new and this weapon cannot be installed on it. So you will have to farm experience for a harp and a new tower with a gun from a LEVEL SIX tank:
And with it you need to farm 31 experience points, including in battles against 300 levels.
Now you can put the gun that was opened on the T-34-1:
With it, you will have to fill another 16 experience. And for what? Finally, having suffered about a hundred fights and moving the car to the top, you can finally relax and bend down ... but not in the case of the T-000-34. The top gun has one of the lowest armor penetration values for the base shell, so a comfortable game can only be dreamed of:
It also has an alternative 122mm gun with great alpha but terrible stabilization, poor accuracy, and a very slow aiming time. However, most players prefer the more stable 100mm gun. Firepower comparison with the 100mm and 122mm guns:
Due to such problems with opening modules, and generally low firepower, the T-34-2 has one of the lowest average damage per battle, yielding even to Chinese LTs.
Many have heard that upgraded vehicles should not be worse than premium ones. And now look at the comparison of the T-34-2 with the Type 59 (with a 100 mm gun) and T-34-3 (with a 122 mm gun) premiums, both of them with preferential combat levels! Moreover, among prems they are considered the weakest. Nearby we can observe the 59-Patton with adequate performance characteristics for a tank with a full level of combat.

The sadness of the pumped "Chinese" does not end there, because in addition to the fact that it is extremely difficult to shoot damage at him, even "sixes" and "sevens" can pierce his body. It is not unfortunate, but fuel tanks and an ammunition rack are located in front, so arson and “one-shots” are a common occurrence for him when breaking through in the forehead.
The tower is more reliable, it can even tank in the top, but it is problematic to play from it because of the most inconvenient LHV -5 ... + 15 ° (it was already uplifted to him, before it could only be lowered by 3 degrees).
In terms of survivability, it also looks weaker than benefits:
Mobility is perhaps the only thing I can't complain about; the tank moves well and is quite maneuverable. It boasts excellent stealth, which some players take advantage of when hiding in the bushes (I don't even blame them, as it's difficult to utilize the T-34-2's DPM in combat).
Summing up let's form the main arguments in favor of why the T-34-2 is the worst tier 8 tank:
- has very low armor penetration, and almost everything penetrates it;
- poor stabilization of the gun on the move, so it is still possible to hit in dynamic skirmishes, but the chances of targeting weak areas of the enemy are minimal;
- long mixing;
- in a stock configuration, it will ruin the nervous system of even the most balanced player;
- long transfer to the top due to the uselessness of the tank;
- high criticality of modules;
- in almost everything inferior to preferential premiums.
For battles in various modes (sorties in the fortifications or the Front Line), the T-34-2 is absolutely unsuitable. Now he is too situational, depends on the team and it will be difficult even for a skilled player to realize his potential. This tank does not meet the requirements put forward to the ST class and cannot fully fulfill its role in battle. Probably no one will be surprised that average percentage of wins on it in 2019 ≈ 48%.
T-34-2 is obsolete, it will not bring a comfortable game to its owner. It is unlikely that the developers will turn their attention to it and want to upvote it. Therefore, if you decide to purposefully upgrade only the Chinese MT branch, then it is better to assemble a platoon with friends from 3 tanks in order to gain more experience and increase your chances of winning. Use promotions for x5 or reserves for experience, if you have a premium account, you can pour in bonus experience. If you want to save your nerves, then the easiest way is to open at least some of the modules for free.
