    The IS-7 came to the game over 4 years ago and a lot has changed. I recently was requested to revisit and see how this Rare Soviet Heavy Tank was fairing.

    How do you think the IS-7 fairs in the game currently? Personally, I feel it does really well against certain things and then an ATGM with a Tandem Warhead decides to run your day. Are there other rare/unique tanks you would like to see on the channel or possibly revisited?

    It makes me really sad that gaijin is punishing those who have put a lot of time and effort into getting these pretty rare vehicles! Object 279, IS-7 have repair costs of over 10k the US merkavas are pretty expensive to repair as well. They should at least be cheap to repair.

    • @oOScrabbOo

      No they absolutely shouldn‘t, what are you talking?? You earn double xp and silver lions so you are still making more sl than tech tree tanks if you make the same kills + they are already strong tanks at their br. At least the ones you are talking about
      Every sl less would make the game more pay to win, and nobody should really want this.

      Non-premium event vehicles should have a silver card (as opposed to the gold premium card) with a reduced repair cost (as if it was premium) and an SL booster (as if it was premium) but no RP booster so it can't be used to research whole trees and it won't research faster.
      They should be more than just a collectable Tech Tree vehicle with extra steps. It's already a pain in the ass to get them, then you also have to research parts. Make them special and have a purpose.

    See I think the Is-7 can still perform incredibly well at the moment, the round is about enough to pen just about anything you point at, then you have those two heavy mgs for light vehicles and tracking, the tank is incredibly fast both forward and reverse, and the Armor is still somewhat efficient at its br, albeit some rounds go through it like a knife through butter, but I find the thing incredibly good at surviving due to lots of crew and decent Armor - I spent £200-300 on mine and never regretted it at all, one of my best investments in war thunder

    I can't do anything to fight back but it's just hilarious sometimes.

    one of the few tanks, that are probably worth the 700-1000$ price, anything above 1k for an in vehicle anything though for me is unreasonable. but considering the literal 60-70 hours a week i watched people grind for this tank, and for some that did that and still not get it, its fair
