So I was perusing my Facebook feed today when I came across this post by WoT Console:  Now, it could be that it means nothing. But I believe that the T-34-88 might be coming back soon. |

I hope they don't make it ridiculously expensive because of the hype. I want this tank but I'm not going to buy it if they bundle it with a load of crap I don't want.  |

It would be nice if they just offer the tank by itself, but I won't hold my breath.

I will def buy. I hate the T-34-85 though, does that man I will hate the 88? For what it is worth, I loved the tier 5 T-34.

It's basically the exact same tank except with the short 88 mm on it. (Same 88 that the VK36 and tier VI medium [can't recall the name] on the Porsche line both use.) It has low pen (132? something around there) and meh accuracy, but does do 200+ damage per shot. That alpha makes it a beast in tier VI games, but the low pen makes it tough in tier VIIIs (though not impossible). For me, it's all about the crew training -- I need Soviet crews in the worst way, and this is better than running, say, the T-127 for days on end. (I mean, I like my 127, but the more I play, the less I like lower tiers.) Also: How does one hate the 34-85 but love the 34?  (I'm about 1% away from my second mark in the 85. Love that tank!) |

Believe it or not I'm going to pass on this tank. I have so many premium tanks already that I can't play them all. I think the tank is awesome and can't fault a player for buying it but I'll be passing on it.
I guess I'll be the only Fury fighting against a flood of 34-88's.

Ok cool, thanks for the info. I'm going to get it either way, as I don't want to miss out, in case I would love it. Plus the crew training. As far as the tier 5 and tier 6, I honestly can't tell you why lol. I'm a little confused as well. But it is like extreme love of 1 and extreme hate for the other. |

SD, I was thinking the same thing tbh. I actually might pass too. I have enough Russian trainers and I don't play German tanks. There's honestly almost nothing in the German lines that interest me enough beyond the low tier stuff that I have and rarely play. And I just dropped a bunch of beans on the snakebite and M41B.

It's OK Skag. I will play mine with you and your snakebite.

I hope the V/IV gets sold soon, too. I need to start training up an uber German crew, and between the Hammer, Rampanzer, and 34-88 I should get one fairly quickly.

You really are missing out on the E50 and E50M mate, two of my favourite tanks in game. |

I'm going to buy the cheaper, base Snakebite and the T-34-88. I was about to pull the trigger on the T-127, but I just can't see me using it much - on the other hand, 1100 gold isn't all that much. The T-127 is the only one I'm hung up on right now.

The T-127 is the only one I'm hung up on right now. The T-127 is a fun low tier crew trainer. It has pmm and will only see tier IV. It plays like a baby IS-6. The ap pen is meh but the apcr pen is better. Matildas can be a bitch and Hetzers will hetz you. The T-127 won me the Hammer. It can easily carry it's own in most matches. |

T-127 is awesome. Everyone should have a 127, Locust, and Pak 40  E50/M? Yeah, I know they're good from fighting then but I'd probably such in them. Someday. I don't have as much stick time as a lot of guys. R takes me a long time to go up a line. I still only have three one tier 10. Like 3 tier 9s(?) |

Is the Locust a prem? |

I most definitely will be plunking my $ down on a 34-88 when its offered. I'm tired of watching my platoon mates roll them out of their garage!

I wants one. I have 2500+ gold in the garage as leftovers from the Motherland and CDC ops, with a little from the last time I bought premium.
