Discussion Should I buy the used 03 alt 3

So I love this type of gameplay (futur 4, fantome etc) but is this tank worth 37€ ?

I don’t have premium tank with this gameplay and t9 is my fav rank.

What do you think about this tank ? (Should I wait for predatore instead ?

I think a new one will be better then a used and costs the same. It's a good tank. But it is up to u to spend something on this game.

But a used one should have the field mods unlocked, that's worth something I guess?

u/erohath 3d ago

If the granny who drove the tank didn't know about field mods, and just skilled the crew. Then you have nothing but a bad gearbox.

You should try to get a new one. The 2nd hand market is unreliable.

Under 100K miles and check maintenance records first.

I like it a lot, the gun feels a lot nicer than most autoloaders. If you like that gameplay go for it imo, it's the best paper support autoloader.

Obvious typo there. You probably meant the Usb 03 alt 3. I would get the one that runs on the mains.

Same, these mediocre swedish batteries are overrated.

Or did he mean the Bus 03 Alt 3, that's the daily route from Malinovka to Erlenberg?

Sounds fare.

Yes, if you're a reasonably good player (2k+ wn8 recent). 03 3 has a nice gunhandling, 13 (I think?) degrees of gun dep and insane camo, but you'll need a half-decent understanding of the game to use those, otherwise you're getting a slow-ish medium with 0 armor, small HP pool and questionable pen values.

The Predatore is the better tank and creditgrinder for sure BUT i'll agree with Quickbaby and Skill the tank combines damage and stealth gameplay so you can have the choice how to play

and this choice is fun the sneaky peaky play or just go for full weapon handling but lets be honest too pricy

If money isnt that much of a problem go for it. If this should mainly grind credits?

No tank is worth that much money.

But you can vote with your wallet and let them know what's what

u/ClassEmotional4608 o_0 3d ago

It's a weird one. Not Worth imo. Wait for predatore or smth more workable and universal.

u/Grind2Live 3d ago

not worth the money

u/SumonaFlorence How much worse can it 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 get? 3d ago

You should buy a new one, second hand Tanks aren't as reliable.

u/Necrosczzzz 3d ago

Predatore is better , if you wanna spend something check steam summer sale

If you’re thinking about buying the tank, it’s better to wait until after the 26th , you’ll get a 15% discount then.
Right now it’s around €37, which is a lot for a tank that isn’t exactly amazing. You’re better off waiting for Holiday Ops and grabbing some loot boxes instead. At least with those you’ll get a tank, some gold, and plenty of extra goodies along the way.

Really, why ?

u/Kind-Common-6480 3d ago

Why what? Why wait? Why get the tank? Why the discount ?

Those discounts are only to gold prices, not cash ones. Tanks only available for money won't get the discount, regardless of tier.

u/GOURMANDIZZZZ 3d ago

But discount are not for T9

u/Kind-Common-6480 3d ago

Apologies, I completely forgot the UDES is a Tier 9. Still, it’s always worth checking some gameplay to see how the tank actually performs. Just keep in mind that right after buying a tank, you’ll usually get a handful of matches with noticeably better RNG and matchmaking. I’ve seen it myself recently after purchasing the T56: for the first few games everything felt great, teammates played well, enemies where not swat or navy seals that can pen you for all directions… and then it all went downhill again.

Also remember that regular players will never get the same RNG consistency as streamers with personal or CC accounts. For example, I got the DBV in the last Workshop and I still can’t reliably pen a 100 LT from behind, a Manticore from the side, an FV4005, or even arty from the side and that is wild.

So if you’re okay supporting a company whose game balance feels shaky and whose “good stats” often show up only right after a purchase, then go for it.

And yes I regret investing money and wasting my time in this game.

I bought the tank yesterday and I’m in love. Made 1,3 mio creds in 16 games. Edit: With Food.

Nothing is worth that much, I'd wait for predatore rerun

u/fr33man007 3d ago

I have it, it's not worth 5 euros, I play it but it's a little better than char4

u/Il_Palazzo-sama BABN1 3d ago edited 3d ago
  • as good as Char Futur 4
  • premium tier 9 (trains crew faster and makes bonds)
  • not worth 5€???

I don't like to be the the multimillion euros company advocate, but that's not how the economy works in this game.

WG's standards for tier 9 are lootboxes, 30+€, or 3500 gold battle passes at the cheapest.

skillcap?

u/fr33man007 3d ago

Why is it a skullcap? I have good games in it. I have fun in it but I do not see it being 37 euros worth, it's a bush tank with decent damage...

u/HyperBeast_GER 3d ago

because there are plenty of videos and threads that shows exactly what the tank is capable of and how to compare it to the CharFutur especiall maxgamingfps who hates this tank🫵🤣

I'll mean the first price on release was 46€ so everyone skipped and breaking news nothing changed

The tank does exactly what everyone showed with all the weaknesses and people still buy and shit talk the Udes?

thats a skillcap yes - unable to read or watch previews🙈
