Germany is getting a lot this update but since these have no been announced, I have no idea where they are going to end up. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
@SodaZilla Its an IS-2 1944 that is loosely based off of several vehicles that saw service. It's visually different and has extra logs and whatnot, but otherwise practically identical to the regular one.
God i love how they added entirely new premium vehicles instead of making better customization for the ones that are currently in game. Im so happy about this and not at all disappointed!
The flag is often used that way as a "Fliegersichttuch", or planesightmarker. It shwos own planes, tatical bombers for example, that they are on wrong target...
When will people like you realize that it always has been like this, either wallet warrior or no life player end up buying these and wont change a dang thing in your performance in battle unless the tank itself was that broken like the IS-6 was back when it was introduced
@@not_psychic9865 Exactly. WT players love to complain that the grind is too long, but when Gaijin decides to add 2 premiums that are virtually identical to one of Germany's most prominent TT vehicles, they lose their shit, even though these vehicles could help newer players progress faster (for a price). Something like this isn't worth complaining about. I think it's really cool that they are adding these two.
Best part of the tiger ost and west is that they removed the little grenade launchers on the tech tree variant so u don’t get disruptions in gun delresssion
Personally, I wish they add a Mid-Production Tiger 1 like the Japanese Heavy Tank No.6 in the German tree. Since Germany has the early and the late model be nice to see the Mid or even the Gruppe Fuhrmann Tiger I which was a late hull with early production turret.
This must be Gaijin's response to all the German mains that threw a hissy fit over the Italian tree getting a better Tiger than them. It certainly looks nice, hopefully this bodes well for us American mains finally getting some dressed up Shermans (preferably through an event and not a pay wall)
@ I personally want an M4A2 76mm HVSS as it should be fast but idk. The M4A3 76mm (HVSS) is already with 90 more horsepower, and is lighter than the M4A2 76mm. So idk why it’s slower but hey.
@@inflamedzero4994 he means the “momie can you buy this for me” people who believe all the stuff about the tiger being the greatest ww2 tank and basically invincible
The wood is 100mm thickness, but Gaijin has different modifiers for different materials to approximate their RHA equivalence. It's not like in World of Tanks, where steel and aluminum are treated as if they were the same. And wood has a modifier of x0.05, so 100mm of wood amounts to 5mm of spaced armor.
The Tiger Ost reminds me of the campaign skin you could get for the Tiger E in BFV, the Last Tiger. I REALLY like the flag draped on the tank, I hope in the future we see more things like that and maybe even see it animated as it moves with the tank
He said it on purpose to make US mains cry in the comments about it (it clearly worked from what I'm seeing in other comments) Also, saying blud is cringe.
Gaijin could have add this in form of modifications for the regular Tiger H1, but they are smart enough to make premiums and some people are dumb enough to buy it, which will show Gaijin that they can continue their money oriented updates
I want a Tiger Mid Production! This was the perfect opportunity. Instead we got more Early production Tigers. Now this is still cool, but not as cool as it could of been. Gaijin! Please! Mid Production Tiger Tanks!
The Tigers are like a buffed Tiger H1 because they dont have the smoke launchers on their front corners of the hull! So you can perfectly angle them like with the Tiger E. And that at 5.7 is great for all the professional Tiger players (those who know how to play it correctly)
I much prefer this type of premium, ones that you aren't missing out on a vehicle if you dont buy them. Would like for Gaijin to keep premiums this way, leave the cool wacky things for the tt so everyone can enjoy them.
Seeing these being added is absolutely awesome. They really should be skins rather than being premiums though, which is gonna cause a lot of problems on its own but, still nice seeing them added.
I think what would be cool is if they implemented some sort of system that allows you to pick camo webbing/ tracks or logs etc to certain tanks to make them look historically accurate rather than always having to buy a premium of that certain vehicle.
I would love they gave us the opportunity to buy cosmetics like sandbags or those logs to put it on the tanks, even if they didnt serve a porpuse on armor values.
Remember when vehicles like that (simple reskins of existing tech tree vehicle's, IS-2 "321" To be accurate) were event vehicles instead of 4K GE premiums?
I don't think wooden armour is actually going to matter in the slightest. If a few sticks are stopping your shell, it probably wasn't going through the metal anyway. Apcr will still be fine, aphe will still be fine, this really only affects HEAT, if anything I see this as a bit of a balancer. Even though probably not by much though.
I'm assuming the wooden sides are just not model correctly yet, that looks like 100 mm of wood but they have it modeled there's 100 mm of steel. It's probably going to be like 20 mm of extra effective protection
Funny thing is they removed the infamous hull smoke launchers so you can now actually angle the armor… But does it truly matter even with the extra armor since you can just get hit on your Copula anyway because of APHE not being changed due to all the “crying” (as done would describe it) that happened.
@@pugasaurusrex8253idk, even then it is an Tiger when you angle you are impenetrable without this wood. And about ricochet they shouldn't appear, but this wood can have effect some ammo types like HE or HEAT.
Can we not just make these skins for the Tiger H1? I’d like new skins like these for vehicles along with camo patterns. The community should push for that.
Gaijin really should just add these as mods for the normal Tiger H1 in the tech tree. But I imagine the reason why they aren't doing that is because they want money instead of just giving away cool mods for free.
I have mixed opinions about the new Tigers but just letting you guys know wood offers barely any protection against kinetic shells. Consider this before buying. But im absolutely in love with the aesthetics of the new Tigers.
I kinda like this kind of premium vehicles. Gaijin make money while not blocking an unique play style behind paywall. People want fancy can have their fancy and people want gameplay can still have the same vehicle without paying in the tech tree.
The 100mm of wood is basically nothing, it's actual resistance in game is like a fraction of a fraction of RHA. It's not literally 100mm of RHA on the sides
the premium tigers does not have that little smoke grenade on the hull roof making it able to depress the gun better. kinda wondering would the main tree H1 would also have the hull roof smoke grenade removed
Germany is getting a lot this update but since these have no been announced, I have no idea where they are going to end up. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
They might be event vehicles but then again they could be ge vehicles too or one is a event while the other is ge
I really hope they're event vehicles like the IS-2 321
Is the IS-2 321 Chinese modded or a Soviet prototype?
@SodaZilla Its an IS-2 1944 that is loosely based off of several vehicles that saw service. It's visually different and has extra logs and whatnot, but otherwise practically identical to the regular one.
What about Tiger 131 as a premium for the uk tech tree?

It is great, isn’t it! Like, the Churchill VII has a ton of addon tracks modification, but forbid the Tigers getting that. Or concrete Shermans.
Hopefully this opens the door for some dressed up Shermans.
sounds like ur scared of a full tiger lineup :3

The „Tiger Ost“ actually has a historical accurate skin(besides the flag obviously)

now the lvl 1's are gonna replace the lvl 20 German teammates at 5.7-6.7 bruh
wont change a thing honestly
German teammates are mostly braindead with the ever occasionally Giga brain player no matter the lvl or rank.

these are literally just the same tigers with cool decorations slapped on them, it’s probably not gonna change a thing
@@randomdude1730
He’s saying wallet warriors are now going to make German mid tier worse (not that it was doing good anyway)
this is how every tank in the game should look, not only some premiums
As a scale model builder I'm all about vis mod stuff, and these look nice, I hope we get some Shermans and Cromwells like this in the future.
An M4A2 that based off of Fury would be cool,
Although I’m surprised they haven’t made a Tiger 131 yet
Honestly if this is here we should get a Fury inspired M4A3E8 would be pretty cool!
m4a3 with add on armour and smoke like it had irl.
So Gaijin's focus now is to make lineups almost entirely comprised of premiums?
YES, I love it. Faster way to progress.
Yes lol. They've been leading this for the past few updates 🫠

The armour multiplier for wood is like x0.01 so thats legit like 1mm of rha
Still would mess up a bunch of HEAT/HE slingers life
Not the ones that bully the Tigers most via 400mm pen tho
*except Soviet vehicles where the decimal point got shifted right 3 spaces. 🤣
@@corsairsofnarshaddaa so 0.00001?
Wood's modifier is x0.05, so this is equivalent of 5mm RHA.

They add more of these as premiums, but don't least fix the Kopyo-25 radar on the Su-39.
"Waiter, waiter! More Tiger please!" - Breda 501, probably
Hopefully this will mean Sherman 75 & 75 prems with extra armor, extra vis mod stuff and such.

@BrunoCanas-c8xYou’re free rp for me mate
1:00 100mm of wood is not equivalent to 100mm of RHA
My 5.7 lineup is about to have a lot of whiskers
Ah shit, here we go again
I really want those Tigers, since they are very unique with purpose.
Both Tigers look awesome, now I hope to see a British Firefly tank with spare tracks all over the front and camo netting/scrim.
I like the new decorations on these machines wish those wood bundles would be a regular decoration option
I really want both of these!
Really nice to see some variations in the models. Better than seeing a dozen players with identically equipped Tigers

God i love that ghillied up tiger, AAAAAAAAAA I WANT IT!!!
Now add the Fury M4A3E8 bcs that movie made me play war thunder🤤

Come on you gotta admit the premium tigers are pretty cool
The only people who are mad about this are elitists and jobless neets. They cant accept that devs need to make money for some reason.
Who doesn't know that some sticks bound together make up 100mm armour
Its 100mm wood doesnt mean its gone be 100mm armour.. more like maybe 1-10mm

I’m sure that 100mm of wood is really going to slow down my firefly rounds 😂
They are very pretty tigers, I’ll give them that.
The „West“ version looks really dope
That tiger with flag on the turret gonna become very popular on WTLive
I much prefer this type of premium, ones that you aren't missing out on a vehicle if you dont buy them. Would like for Gaijin to keep premiums this way, leave the cool wacky things for the tt so everyone can enjoy them.
looks like they took the little antipersonnel launchers off the corners of the hull which is pretty cool

I think what would be cool is if they implemented some sort of system that allows you to pick camo webbing/ tracks or logs etc to certain tanks to make them look historically accurate rather than always having to buy a premium of that certain vehicle.
You forgot to mention that they don’t have the ‘mine clearance’ things on the corners that don’t allow your barrel to go all the way down.
The ost is going to be potent I can’t wait for it to drop
Gaijin sure knows how to make me spend my well earned grinding eagles on stuff
I would love they gave us the opportunity to buy cosmetics like sandbags or those logs to put it on the tanks, even if they didnt serve a porpuse on armor values.
Even more premiums than announced is wild
After this you can technically spawn 8 tiger h1s (normal tiger)(event tiger) and these
As a jumbo player this does put a smile to my mouth
YES! As a low/mid tier German enthusiast, this is awesome!
Gaijin saw how well I did with the tigris that they needed to give germany a slightly up armored tiger
As a tiger main I am looking forward to having a tiger only vehicle line up
Remember when vehicles like that (simple reskins of existing tech tree vehicle's, IS-2 "321" To be accurate) were event vehicles instead of 4K GE premiums?
i hope they put the panzer 4 special edit that they make for enlisted
Always nice seeing premiums that are simply better than their tech tree counterparts sitting at the exact same br, love me my P2W Free to Play games.
It's only like, 2% better. It sits fine at 5.7. The additional wooden armor on the Tiger Ost does not warrant a higher BR.
Always love to see fools comment like they have an original idea while pointing out the obvious.
The thing is that the jumbo can already only barely pen the side of the tiger. And it faces tigers constantly
I don't think wooden armour is actually going to matter in the slightest.
If a few sticks are stopping your shell, it probably wasn't going through the metal anyway.
Apcr will still be fine, aphe will still be fine, this really only affects HEAT, if anything I see this as a bit of a balancer.
Even though probably not by much though.
A camo or a bit of wood is not worth a .3 br increase.
Speaking of the flag, it would be really nice to get those older flags as decals for customization. (Third Reich, USSR, Kingdom of Siam and others.)
I'm assuming the wooden sides are just not model correctly yet, that looks like 100 mm of wood but they have it modeled there's 100 mm of steel. It's probably going to be like 20 mm of extra effective protection
Funny thing is they removed the infamous hull smoke launchers so you can now actually angle the armor… But does it truly matter even with the extra armor since you can just get hit on your Copula anyway because of APHE not being changed due to all the “crying” (as done would describe it) that happened.
well i can see that they removed them why it was a downside so for a premium vehicle it will suck to pay for you to have less depression on the gun
@ Yeah, but shouldn’t be on the non premium either. They have 0 function lol. It’s just HILARIOUS they did it only on a premium. Greed.
100mm by a bunch of sticks? 😳 What are the devs on?
That thing would be a beast if angled like he did at the end of the video 8:15
Game calculate armor types, so yee this log is 100mm but for standard shells it will be like 0-1mm.
@gaben_WT Any chance for goofy ricochets?

Now you can actually recreate the campaign from battlefield 5
I mean, we already have premiums that are ust camos. the leo 2a4 pzbtl 123 for example
like with the tigers would love to see shermans like this as well!
These are pretty cool
I think those are also for youtubers to make animations with them. West and East
Perhaps one of these tigers can be obtained for the upcoming winter event?
so, now u can make a tiger line up? because u have the tiger 1h ,the furry tiger, the tiger ost, tiger west and tiger 1 p?
More premium tigers than tech tree tigers🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Well guess I need these now. I wish they would update the Tiger E model for Germany since the Romanian version has a newer model.
