WG literally said when they buffed this, 'the Object 140 is a well-balanced tank, ' so why did it need to be substantially buffed?

[WatcherMovie]

I find a twist of irony that WG is buffing the fictional russian tier 10 medium tanks yet the T-62A, the real Russian medium/mbt, has been neglected because WG is using the "realism" argument.

[kristiangustafson]

"Its inability to automatically bounce everything thrown at it on ridges was the only thing keeping this vehicle from being balanced."

Seriously. Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Meanwhile, manticore... 'nough said

[neeevirus]

Why?
I just want an explanation on why wargaming decided to do this
I-... I don't even know...

[mrcannotfindaname]

What'll happen to T62A?
WG: what's that? Is it a tank? I don't recall having this in the game.

[lMrJackl]

140 was performing perfectly well before, this buff is comepletely unnecessary

[strategicmind]

Basically the buff to the 140 is going to make the buffs to the 121 and E50M redundant the moment the whole patch hits the live server

[Ragnarokflare]

Wargaming allowing Russian tanks to step on the toes of other tank. Honestly why play any other tank.

Wow, a Russian tank getting a buff? WhAt A sUpRiSe, jUsT wHaT tHe GaMe NeEdEd

[certifiedgiggledog]

I like how they're buffing tanks that never needed it, they should be buffing the med vic reload rate the centurion shouldn't have like a nine second reload, specifically because the tank had far more room, and a loading assist mechanism. There's alot of tanks that need love, the Russians aren't them

Meanwhile, Leopard PTA is getting nerfed.

[Stefan-wpqr]

Try not to get caught out by skill again in that position 😂😂😂😂

[Mystro]

If they planned to buff the 140, it makes the Italian nerf make a lot less sense.
Unless they rebuff the Italians somehow to make them useable again at the top tiers.

[TheMrTapani]

WG logic: "People arent grinding this well balanced medium enough compared to Object 430... hmmm... Let's 'Balance' it to be more attractive for whales to grind!"

[jacobtanjinghong]

In what universe does the 140 need a buff? It was performing decently and is still by far one of the most popular tier 10 medium. This tank has everything going for it, great armour, insane gun, good mobility, camou etc. This buff reminded me back when they randomly buffed the T-44's penetration from 175 to 183 or something and their dumb reasoning was to "bring the penetration in line with the Chinese T-34-2" like what the T-34-2 was already underperforming with the 100mm and the 122mm was at least special (until the T-44 was buffed again coz the 430 line came out). This is basically the same shit imo, they'll probably say something along the lines of "bringing the superior armour of the 140 in line with the newly buffed 121" because fk you that's why, can't have our Chinese counter parts be receiving buffs without some compensations.

[petrameyer]

So another breach free Russian tank. That kind of depression in that flat turret should be impossible.

[atlashugged]

Here's a though WG, rather than buffing already powerful tanks so that they can compete with OP tanks (in other words, they become OP themselves), just nerf the OP tanks! I can understand not being able to nerf premiums (even if I hate it) because of EU laws, but the 430U and 907 and 279e and Chieftain aren't premium tanks, so why can't they just nerf them rather than attempting to buff every other tank (except a random handful like the AMX 30B and T-62A because screw you only some tanks are allowed to be brought in line with the super OP tanks in the game)

[yegorme]

The biggest question however is if the panther 88 finally decent?
