Babaroga, I'm not here to debate the meaning of big. Obviously you and noun have different definitions of the word.
But that's what it is. You may not care for ToW, but their stats say a lot of players are playing it, so yes, it's big news for a lot of people.

Fine, be a cheap skate and build a bunker 
I certainly don't think it's unreasonable have a pak43 and an ostwind in the most contentious part of the map. |

How can you be caught off guard when your entire strategy evolves around this one tank, everything you do in the game should be building protection and scouting for this unit. If you get caught off guard, you've failed to play the strategy properly.
Also you can't compare units too deeply, Elefant has more armour, but can be effectively taken out by a single, cheap, ram. Also soviets have the best arty and strongest bomb drop. |
Use festung armour and hull down an ostwind in front of it  Infantry cant come close, planes will get shot down.
Like Courier said, you HAVE to know your picking this against the correct doctrines. |
|
its just the content in general, ToW, 2 MP maps (including mud effects).
Whats hard to understand about that?

Like I already said, you use its range and protect it with an army of paks, MGs, Guards (button), AT nades etc etc etc, throw mark target on top: nothing will get close.
Meanwhile it eats everything in its horrizon.
Look at all the soviet tanks, they are like slightly lighter armoured versions of the german tanks, with a bit less AT and a heck more AI.
IS2 - Tiger
ISU152 - Elefant
34/85 - Panther
34/76 - P4
Those 4 comparisons all roughly shame the same principal above, so Relic have it how they want it. |

Are you kidding? the ISU is a beast!
The main reason you dont see it often is its resource cost.
But use Mechanised Support with T1 and T2, you call one in mid game once you hit 5 CP. It abaolutley OWNS any infantry that try to get close, and you have a web of ZiS, Guards and mines to slow any armour that trys to get close, meanwhile your ISU blasts away constantly. (not to mention mark target is also in this doctrine).
Ive owned every single Tiger Ive encountered with this assault gun.
Yes an Elefant might be a good counter (everything needs a counter right). Its also map dependant. Even against elefant, you can mark target it, and drop IL2 bombs on it, which also come with the ISU.
Your trying to compare it to two units which are pretty much only AT, meanwhile this OWNS infatry squads, while still giving good damage to armour.

Well mud is part of it, but Id say he was more excited about announcing the 2 new maps and ToW content. |
|
Well Ive also been beaten quite handily a few times by pak43 because Ive not had off map arty, and Ive been using T3.
Like someone said, if you can hide it and use supprise to deal a nasty blow to an important tank, thats pretty huge for its cost. |
|
The thing to bare in mind using pak43's, is that there are a lot of soviet doctrines which do not have arty strikes and also rely on T3.
That's the golden situation to use a pak43, because those strats usually centre around strong tanks. It's just learning which doc they are and picking yours later to counter. |
