Yes sure, I totally agree with you about ISU but in this case I still think that you have a huge advantage in teams games with a single sturmtiger and mates supporting you.

I think it's very map dependant. A map with lots of shot blockers (Ettlebruck, Minsk Pocket etc) makes it hard to spot a Sturmtiger without recon planes. A map like Steppes makes it very easy.
We shouldn't judge too early. It comes rather late and may or may not pay off. Its gun takes a long to aim which makes it hard to use against someone who spots it with recon units.
If it turns out to be uncounterable its ability to pierce through world objects should be removed.
Out of curiosity: would it be possible to reduce its damage when piercing through world objects?

Considering the shell won't work unless it pierces world objects, it would always just do reduced damage.

As if the profile picture and signature weren't hint enough.

45 range is enough to make FoW shots (without the use of LoS blockers) possible.

Ahh yes, the old, "Just give up when there are more than 4 players in a game" approach to balance.
On a more serious note, I have not seen the Sturmtiger yet, but the ability to shoot through shot blockers should be rare to non-existant. The only reasons I don't complain about the pak43 is because the unit is already so niche. Sturmtigers should not have the ability to shoot through objects, why not reduce aim time?. If you hit something on map, sorry that's how it goes. We might also consider reducing reload time slightly.

I think Sturmtiger should not pass through buildings because it is a bit frustrating to see this unit in an allies perspective way.

No like the shell used to explode on the tiniest world objects due to the way projectiles work. The unit doesn't function without the ability to shoot through world objects so it doing reduced damage would just kill it as a unit

No I don't think you get how the shell on the Sturmtiger works. It used to explode on anything including tiny wooden fences and small little barrels and Relic gave it shooting through shotblocklers so it could actually work as a unit.
And no nobodies given up on balance in 4's, it's just that the focus goes to the competitive game modes first because they are easier to isolate variables in.
