I was hoping for two guns 😉
When Type 59 isn’t milking enough so need a Type 59-II to make sure everyone is using every spare $ they have
Don’t get to upset guys…historycally speaking Type -59-II and 121B are the same thig
Its a slightly better 3-4-3
Meanwhile: 59 PC is a piece of trash. Nobody plays it.
I know mine is gathering dust …
Mod 1+ 44-100 beat the 59 with a stick all day long.
I find it quite interesting.. i find it the exact opposite, me and my friends who own it, play it all the time, and a matter of fact it’s one of the best tier8s we like to play. I play it ever since the first frontlines from last year, till tomorrow and onwards. Gunhandling is nice (all be it not russian) it is a very competitive tank, that has pref mm that what you mentioned mod1, 44-100 doesn’t have so it is a little bit unfair to compair. But even so, it is still a really good tier8 to play. In case you haven’t done so, give it a try, it won’t hurt.
Type 59 on PC is an OP tank. Its got the turret of at T54, good hull, and hover tank mobility. And it has Pref MM…. 44-100 will of course beat the 59 where the 44-100 has a better driver 1-on-1, but it sees tier X so you are missing the point.
