Thoughts on the C2A1?

I think it is kind of underwhelming, but I only have it stock so far

The Turret armor is better and Hull seems a bit more spacious but beware carrying too much Ammo because the left to the drive as usual is a death sentence unless you Hulldown somewhere. Also the engine idk but to me, it seems much more quieter when you standby around corners on the urban maps instead of turning the engine off.
If you're stock with HEATFS, you're better off Flanking their sides or playing ambush.

Edit: I also find the Turret aiming kinda sluggish and dizzy (like it doesn't actually have Stabilizer but the feeling of a Panther II aiming) despite having stabilizer but I think it's because it's still a stock tank with no upgraded modules. Maybe it's just me.

I mean its a fine tank. Pretty good gun, pretty good mobility, composite and thermals. Its not bad at anything really but doesnt excell at anything either. Its down to player skill and a good position. Its got all the stuff a really good player would need to stomp a game.

Don't worry in a few hours it wont even be fun to play, same with the F-11,

https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/496476-planned-battle-rating-economy-changes-august-2020/&ct=1598406877

C2A1 going from 3,950 SL - 10,110 SL
F-11 going from 11,860 SL - 26,490 SL

Literally making them unprofitable
20 days of grinding for ♥♥♥♥

Well it's just a Leo A1A1 with composite armour and thermals, in a tier where everyone uses APFSDS, your addon mexas armour wont help you, plus you've gotta grind with stock HEAT-FS.

When spaded i'd imagine it'll be good, i like it as it is now, but after this update drops in gonna forget it until they reverse it.

Only 10k on the repair fee? I don't mind that repair fee seeing how I always play with the Ferdi and Tiger II.

Well for some good players it wont matter and for those that have tens or even hundred of millions of Sliver Lions it wont matter but for those who dont have much it's not really worth it, plus at 9.0 it's armour is paper compared to the Ferdinand and Tiger 2 where you'll bounce some shells

It doesn't get any composite armor besides some composite screens on its sides.

Just so I can plan for the future, will this tank likely stay at 9.0 or could their be changes to up tier it to like 9.3?

Very likely stay at 9.0 as it's not exactly on scale to go up a BR.

Well gaijin has changed BR's for event tanks in the past, likely after the event ends and most sales are done on the Gaijin Market they may bumb it up to 9.3, as the M48 Super which is similar to the C2A1 is at 9.3, similar as in addon composite armour, thermals (idk if C2 gets ICT) and DM33
