KV 2 Worst tank in the game

[DraCO]

Its pentration are trash, heavy tank without armor with the slowest speed, and shell loading time 26 seconds make this tank absolute trashiest , now some talk about it has good damage only if it penerate and maximum time you can't penetrate any other heavy on the battle field and if someone got near you your turret takes 1 h to rotate fully.i sold this tank and purchase SU

KV-2 is an acquired taste and style. There is no point playing it without the derp. Once a player gets the hang of it it can tear up lower and higher tiers.

Yeah, just starting out in any heavy is playing as an underdog. Researching all the modules does little. It takes a long time to get a crew built up.
It's becoming understood that staying well below your in-game purchasing power will keep you engaged and less frustrated. Reaching for the next tier as fast as you can is NOT advised. Most complaints here appear related to that.

Its an ambush tank if you brawl expect a bad day. The penetration is tier V not VI wargaming dont care as the premium version cannot even mount the small gun. I believe the tanks needs its HE rounds fixed the penetration is really really bad there too.

The guns stats are totally made up, The same size gun on higher tiers has much more pen.

This guy just makes up narratives that always blames the player for all their ill fortunes. For veteran players your comments are not only laughable but all your advice on this game is entirely without merit or use and completely unsolicited.

No one talks about the fact this tank can meet the Grom, Skoda, Bourrasque, Nergal, Defender. Wargaming sold this tank as a premium for £27 folks for tier 6. Its penetration value is only 150mm with GOLD that means even the worst power creep tank the Defender is ONLY penetrated on the Cuppola (150mm) the front pike nose is unpennable. The HE will now only deal maybe 150 damage for 26s reload.


Now imagine if Ford came to your house and took away your cars fuel and replaced it with potatoe juice and your car runs half as slow would you be angry? Would you ever buy another Ford? Thats what the High Explosive shell nerf did to this tank 126 damage to a defender as you missed his cuppola and hit the turret.

Power creep and the HE nerf destroyed the KV2.

It used to be a serious contender for its tier.
Of course, with the blueprints and discounts and xp boosters, not too many people are playing tier IV anymore, so you're not going to be seeing really good matches ...ever.
Any heavy tank that isn't top tier is in a very bad spot. The armor doesn't hold up, but it still slows you down.

Best recommendation is to try to detrack enemies and get assistance credit.

Ironic game design thats biased towards mediums and lights (the class of choice for streamers and wg employees surprised?) Its armor doesnt protect you but its weight slows you down anyways hows that logical or fair? Its just made up. Wargaming simply wanted peopke to have to spam 4000 credits per shot gold.


I have to get around to submitting a ticket on the problem, Becaude its utterly stupid the tanks he pen is lower than some of them nasty 100mm pen HE rounds other tanks get. Why cant it have a logical penetration value?
