Well the update has dropped and we now have all the heavies with more HP in an attempt return them to being Masters of the Battlefield.  We also have the new Japanese TD’s too.  These are now all in the garage and I am looking forward to being sledged badly in the coming days.

 

I’ll confess I bought the Samurai camo even though IMO way WG have done the barrel makes it look like the blade is upside down as the Ha should be a teeny tiny strip, the Hamon next and then the back of the blade.

I think my e100 is ready to strut its stuff.

 

However, my poor old JagdPanzer E100 might have a bit of a bigger job with the increased hp of heavies.

 

We'll see. 

[MarsIsBrightTonight]

I'll give you my opinion as soon as the update is available.

For now, as usual, PC players have to bide their time.

Get bent, WG. Sideways.

 

EDIT: Okay, client updated. I'm not seeing all this OOPness in the Tier VII but the Tier VIII is nice. Only 3rd classes so far but I think only the diehard players are driving it so far.

Ooo and that Tiger camo. Yum yum.

Just posted a vid on all the Japanese TD's - to be fair Chi-To SPG is not great, but the others are promising

[Corpsetaker]

I was actually enjoying raining death in my Chi-to SPG, then my team arrived, parked in front of me, followed me when I moved, and knocked me around as I was trying to aim. I was doing better when I was on one side of the field and my team was on the other.

Think all 4 are decent so far ... the SPG isn't bad at all, but all are dependent on team support which is flaky at the moment.  the guns all seem nice and while the frontal armour is ok its penable with gold ammo in all of them. The mobility is a bit more variable than I expected to be honest and the Samurai certainly seems to struggle on hills!

[jonty_2014]

Aced the Chi-To SPG.  The replay is here:  https://replays.woti...594ff6a00024ecd

Seems OK.  It’s a TD so a bit team dependent but gets some nice bounces.  Can’t sit in the open - but that’s true of 99% of vehicles.

Ducking Love it!

Yay, get the Duck in!  Ducks are back!

Couldnt bother myself with accumulating XP in Chi-To prior to update so went at it after 6.9 hit the server. I guess what I experienced is called getting old for the tactics and play style I developed back in 2015-2017 for these tiers simply dont click any more. Supremacy of armor over mobility or dominance of idleness over innovation as I like to call it has crept down to mid tiers as well leaving only the sanctuary that is tier 8-9 as an enjoyable experience. I will slowly collect free xp there to buy my way into tier 8 with japanese tds. 

 

Oh and the Katakana still persists on the Ho-Ri legendary camo so no money for you either Wargaming. 

[RicketyOldTank]

I just had a few shots of the Chi To SpG as well. It's OK. Nothing to write home about. I free xp'd the top gun though, the stock gun looked pants.

In my honest opinion, I think update 6.9 is about 0.1 more than the previous version.

[Replicant_2]

There's something that looks like a gold booster in the inventory, likely related to the new event ...

Too many balkenkreuzes if you ask me. A bit overkill on that one. I’ll pass on the camo thing.

The number of crosses is right.

The issue is, they are too big and in the wrong place.  The Germans only put crosses that size on captured tanks (Beutepanzer).

 

 

[Panzerkampfabzeigen]

2 maybe 3, certainly not 4 crosses. Only as you stated on beutepanzers, but not on German tanks. Anyway, this “Tiger camo” makes even the mighty King Tiger look like a captured Russian tank ;-)

best of both worlds ? 

[jylpah]

I was actually quite bored. New TDs do not excite me that much.
